Good one Gina. Corresponds with what I said, that the thistles and thorns are false prophets, because it makes me think of Proverbs 23:7 "as a man thinketh, so is he" Thorns and thistles make thorns and thistles. It also reminds me of:
Matt 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
Gina:
Yep. That makes a ton of sense. Thank you!

By the way, I love when new questions are posted, It makes me study God`s Word. Just saw new awesome things regarding :
Gen 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Wanna hear it? Okay, you all may know this, but this is new to me. Here is How I see it now:
The flaming sword is not the Word of God. The word "flaming" is translated from the hebrew Lahat,which is only used twice in the Old Testament.
The other place it is used is in:
Exd 7:11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments
Enchantments (Lahat) means "to use occult and magical arts". Has the Word of God anything to do with magicians and enchantments? Certainly NOT!! (I´m imitating Ray here :))
The word that is translated sword comes from the hebrew word chereb,
which already there smells a lot like the word Cherubims, and does mean sword. Chereb is derived from the word Charab, which means: to be waste, to lay waste, make desolate....
The word that is translated Cherubims comes from the hebrew word
Keruwb which according to Strongs means: of uncertain derivation; a cherub or imaginary figure.
"which turned every way". In hebrew it reads "the one turning/overturning herself"
"and he placed at the east...". In hebrew it says" and he is causing to tabernacle..."
So who is this woman caused to tabernacle,that is turning herself into a
keeper of the way of the tree of life??
I believe Jesus gives the answer:
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in

All vert helpfull to me thanks,
I found this to add
Rom 7:18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out.
100 % Eagle, gets you studying
