2 Timothy 3:16-17 (ESV)
16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
Scripture is delivered to us by the Holy Spirit, who is the breath of God. Just as God breathed life into Adam and placed him in the Garden of Eden in the presence of the Spirit, when we place our faith in Jesus and receive the Holy Spirit, we are transferred into the kingdom of heaven. Like Adam, we must choose to obey His word or eat the forbidden fruit. Today the Garden of Eden is within us, for the kingdom of heaven is within us.
Adam disobeyed and was unable to eat from the tree of life. We have Christ to help us in our weakness. He will always forgive us when we sincerely repent. He has made a way despite our weakness to the tree of life.
