After that man could no longer speak to God directly because man because we were tainted by sin.
Then God continued to try to deal with man in new ways, first he tried dealing with man by dealing with his concience, at first it worked well, but it ultimitly ended in the total apostasy and ended in the flood.
Then after the flood to the Tower of Bable, God delt with man through human government, and again, at first man did well, but again it ended in total apostasy and God had to divid man at the Tower of Bable, then we have God using the Patriarcs, from Abraham, to Joesoph, but again ends in apostacy when the children of Israiel become slaves. Then God decides to deal with man by the Law, from Moses at the Mount of Zion, and lasted untill total apostacy at the Cross at Calvary. When Jesus gave his life on the cross, and rose from the dead, and then after the asention, God began to deal with man by grace. As you see every dispensation since the gargen of Eden, first begane perfect, but ends in total apostacy. The same will be for the age of Grace, at the rapture.
That is Pre Millenialism in a nut shell.
I hope that helps.
Can you see the creation of mankind (Adam and Eve) as less than perfect because of knowledge?

If you can, you will understand why only God could save His own creation.

It had to be a perfect man to annul the consequences of the gaining of knowledge in the first creation.

That is why there is a new creation, for we must have to be born again, as in spirit, to attain it, and that we have attained it by grace of which only God could do, otherwise, some may boast of their own righteousness.
