Before the entrance of sin on our planet, the first couple enjoyed an open and joyful relationship with the Godhead. Even on the same day Adam and Eve sinned, “they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day” (Genesis 3:8).
After the disobedience of our first parents, the direct communication between man and God was stopped. Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden and were forbidden to return to that beautiful environment.
