HEAVEN IS FOR OVERCOMERS
Revelation 2 [NIV]
[vs: 7] He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
Adam and Eve was denied the right to eat of the three of life in the garden of Eden because they were overcomed by the devil when he decieved them to eat the fruit of the knowledge of evil and good in disobedience to GOD'S commmandment.
They were driving out from Paradise that they may not eat of the tree of life and lives in sin without dying 
So also now those who lives in sin are eating the forbidden fruit and  are overcomed by the devil and will not be allowed into heaven if they die in that condition.
