A thousand years with the Lord is as one day, and one day as a thousand years; That scripture indicates with God there is no time frames like in our world. Everything is present tense, past, present, and future.
It doesn't say. It doesn't say he died in any way on the day he ate. But it does say when he died, at age 930 years (without qualifying by what kind of death).

Nope, that doesn't address the passage. The passage in no shape or form suggests that God told adam that he would die 1000 years after he ate of the forbidden tree.
The 'one literal day = one thousand literal years, one thousand literal years = one literal day' is only used when convenient.
Since we have threads here about UR,Destruction Of The Wicked And Eternal Punishment.
What say ye about how those who do not believe in Christ will perish ? John 3:16 What is the nature of the perishment of the non-believer ?
It means to completely destroy
apóllumi or apolúō; fut. apolésō, 2d aor. apōlómēn, perf. apolṓleka, 2d perf. apólōla, mid. fut. apoloúmai, from apó (G575) an intens., the mid. óllumi (n.f.), to destroy. The force of apó here is away or wholly; therefore, the verb is stronger than the simple óllumi. To destroy, mid. be destroyed, perish. Also from óllumi (n.f.): ólethros (G3639), rain, destruction.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Sorry I'm off track. Didn't mean it to reference Adam's death period in time. Was only referencing the time table in God in all things.
I believe Adam lived 900 years. I think he was living a lot better in the beginning and would have lived forever had he not discovered that same weakness in himself that we all had at one time. The weakness that can't resist wrong choices that are not the will of God, to us, and for us.
Spiritual rebirth is not taking upon one self a bunch of rules that are going to make us perfect in the sight of the Lord. It is becoming someone who we were not at the beginning and someone just like the one who created that nature in us.
The commandments of God were never intended to make us perfect, they were rules that would cause us to be in unity with God and everyone else on this earth. They were all for our good. But because we are not good then what was good for us became the judge over us.
