Where is the tree of life now.
If you are born again. The tree resides in your heart.
Based on scripture and personal experience, there are now 2 cherubim with flashing swords protecting your tree.
You see, Jesus is the tree, and as such, and he resides in the Holy place. Your Holy of Holies.
After all we are the temple of the Holy Spirit.

YES !! It sounds odd to say that Jesus was in the garden of Eden but when you consider that if Adam and Eve had eaten from the tree of life they would have lived forever (GEN 3:22) and Jesus said that He was "the bread that comes down from heaven which a man may eat and not die" (JOHN 6:45). Jesus is the only one of whom I can partake and live forever; therefore, Jesus had to be in the garden.

Maverich, not to open a can of worms but, in your opinion, literal tree or figurative tree?

I believe that man is represented as wood in the bible, I believe that the 2 trees represented 2 forms of belief, 1 the. knowledge, of good and evil. The other, yes Jesus, for God is spirit, but scripture said he walked with Adam in the cool of the day. Jesus is the tree of life.
At the cross jesus overlaid the wood representing evil and permanently covered it with his blood.
