1 Corinthians 11:26, "For as often as you eat this bread, and drink this cup, you do show the Lord's death till He comes."
The "Tree of Life" relates to life or death. The "tree of the knowledge of good and evil" relates to that which is good or bad, or, right or wrong.
In our daily life experiences we often make decisions, or choices that relate to right or wrong, and comment about it being either good or bad. As we do this, we again become attached to the tree of knowledge. Therefore, as we prepare for communion, the first thing we do is to release ourself from this attachment to the Tree of Knowledge.
We then reattach ourself to the Tree of Life and speak to the Lord words that include the following: "Lord, I release the totality of my being from the Tree of Knowledge, and through Your redemption in my behalf, I humbly come to You and reattach myself to the Tree of Life, as being a branch that can live, only as I receive the life of the true vine, flowing into my life."
