Answer \: –

Earth's mass has remained constant, and thus the gravitational pull at the surface has decreased over time; Earth's mass has grown with the volume in such a way that the surface gravity has remained constant; Earth's gravity at its surface has increased over time, in line with its hypothesized growing mass and volume.
