Obedience and loyalty test: Jesus vs Adam

    If I remember well, Jesus gained immortality as a prize only after his obedience and loyalty (apparently for the first time) on Earth. This means his obedience and loyalty were tested because of certain circumstances (otherwise they would have not) and a lot of time after being created.

    First question:

    1) Why did God create His first perfect spiritual creature (Jesus) without needing to be immediately tested regarding his obedience and loyalty, but He created the first perfect human creature (Adam) with that need?

    Second question:

    2) How long did Adam have to be tested for? He spent almost 50 years (calculating from 1975 supposing this date is correct) without Eve not touching the tree of the knowledge of good and bad (that was already there). And what about Adam and Eve's descendants? Following God's command to "be fruitful and become many, fill the earth", so that to be born and live far away from the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, how could their obedience and loyalty be tested?

    Third question:

    3) If Adam and Eve were able to disobey God's command to "be fruitful and become many, fill the earth" before sinning without consequences, why did they change after knowing they would have condemned their descendants to the same consequences they had to suffer? Today, couples with a risk of bad genetically transmitted diseases are able not to have children, and Adam and Eve much closer than us to perfection were not? The only alternative is to think they did not know. So, how could you believe that a universal matter regarding who was right and who was a liar (God or Satan) was raised since then (in front of all the angels) if God, knowing that billions of people would have paid the same consequences without any faults, did not tell them all the truth?

    Am I crazy?
