But of the tree of knowledge of good...... thou shall NOT?

<< < (4/5) > >>

Deborah-Leigh:
Hi Edward

You say you want to see what is going on in this situation.

The tree that is forbidden is the Law. Thy shalt NOT...

The tree of Life is "Come" says the Spirit and the Bride and drink freely.  The teachings that I believe can deepen your insight regarding what God commanded in Genesis are to be found throughout the teachings here in BT. The more specific ones are in http://bible-truths.com/lake15.html under the titles WHAT CAUSED EVE TO SIN WILLINGLY? and IT ALL STARTS WITH THE HEART.

Perhaps reflecting on the first of the TWELVE GOD-GIVEN TRUTHS TO UNDERSTAND HIS WORD at http://bible-truths.com/twelve.htm TRUTH NUMBER 1 may also help you see what is going on regarding God and His ways.

As far as I know, there is no short cut to understanding that comes of the Spirit. We are called to study the Word of God day and night.

I have been reading this thread trying to figure out what the question is that is trying to be answered.  In doing so, I noticed this probably irrelevant point, but God said:

16 And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, Eating you may eat of every tree in the garden;

17 but of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil you may not eat, for in the day that you eat of it, dying you shall die.

It almost sounds like the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is located somewhere other than the garden.

Eileen,

Here is the Scripture that places the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Gen 2:9  (MKJV)
And out of the ground Jehovah God caused to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food. The tree of life also was in the middle of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. george ;D.

Falconn003:
witness::


Genesis 3 : 3 but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.’”
