Does the Tree of Life overcome the tree of knowledge?

[pittsburghjoe]

Change how you choose to perceive this reality by considering the spiritual. God doesn't force His Will on you, you have to choose it freely. Jesus showed us The Way.

You get Faith from the Tree of Life (Righteous Knowledge). That only happens if you give up the tree of knowledge(self-righteous).

The trees of the Garden branch off Free Will.

We still have Free Will after the fall, but the Choice became uncertain.

God said we would die ..we didn't physically die ..we got a death perception of reality. To perceive without God involved. DEATH

The Gospel is the Knowledge of God ..you use that Knowledge to gain a new perception.

Human spirit is your perception of reality. Two versions available, man/beast/dead or God/Alive.

I cant be bothered to read all the posts in this thread, but...

The tree of Life only became possible for us because of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

And in the MIDDLE of the garden were the tree of life AND the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden, but about the fruit of the tree in the MIDDLE of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’ ”

Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever...”

I'm a bit drunk and kinda forgotten my point, but, unless we eat from both trees, how then could we become children of God.

Temptation happens in your mind ..just like Adam and Eve. Just like Jesus in the desert.

God didn't let them eat from the Tree of Life because He was starting this reality. The purpose of this place is to find the Tree of Life.

I wonder what Judaism thinks about "live forever" from that scripture. Do they not understand it is the key to Heaven? What do they think the Flaming Sword is that guards THE WAY to the Tree of Life?

The Flaming sword is watchman as Ezekiel in The OT, The Jesus said:for I come not for peace,but a sword.
Jesus is that guard and key who is The way to The life.

Ezekiel has a sword ..is it flaming?

Has Judaism overlooked what God was doing when He prevented Adam and Eve from living forever from the Tree of Life? Was God starting the purpose of this reality to find it on our own?

Does God's word represent flaming?
Does God's word represent light?
Does God's word represent Two-Edged Sword ?

A s-word of God showing to Ezekiel,not a real s-word God give to him.

God Set up cherubim,and flaming word turningevery way to keep the way to the tree of life.

Human spirit is your perception of reality. Two versions available, man/beast/dead or God/Love/Alive.

The spirit of the heart (perception) directs the mind/soul/conscious.

self-righteous is the perception of death.

If you want death (this world you refuse to give up) ..that is what you are going to get ..this world with Righteous Fire after Judgement.

The Gospel is the Knowledge of God ..you use that Knowledge to gain a new perception (Righteousness).

 

[pittsburghjoe]

God is Spirit ..death is blindness to GOD.

self-righteous good and evil is conscience that doesn’t consider God in your perception.

 

[pittsburghjoe]

Jesus showed us The Way with Truth of the blind situation we are in. Light to open our eyes to a Righteous Perception of reality.

Good and evil from the tree of knowledge was Choices without considering God.

You can't have direct proof, that would ruin your choice to believe. God doesn't force His Will ..you have to choose it.

Choose to know good and evil that includes GOD in the choice.
