luthers thoughts on the two trees in the garden

[horsecamp]

Luther was constantly reading the bible or praying so he would have a lot of Godly wisdom from his bible reading


the tree of good and evil

the tree Adam and Eve were not to eat its fruits

why did
God create that tree right in the middle of the garden.. And told them not to eat from it..

Luther thought that God gave Adam and Eve the first church this tree their first church building so each day they could go to it and have someway they could use to thank God for all he had done for them so he provided for them this tree to use as a thank offering they could use by not eating from it. since they could eat from all the other trees in the garden. .All they knew was good They knew God and his will and that he loved themir
and he provided every thing good for them.. soon by their own hearts and hands doing sin believing a stranger rather than God who always showed his love to them they would
know what evil was.


The tree of life

God did not want them to eat of this tree after the fall and live for ever as Gods enemies and in sin and evil constantly. so he ran them out of the garden, Gods plan was yet another tree that would bring them eternal life He him self would die on that tree winning them back and earning them eternal life in Jesus

Horsecamp,
There was only one tree that the Bible says God placed in the MIDST/MIDDLE of the garden and it was the Tree of life.... not the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that was ALSO in the GARDEN, but not in the middle.
Jesus is always in the midst of God's people for the Word of God is the tree of life. Jesus said: I am the true Vine..... and you will know his by their FRUIT.

Gen 2:9
9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
KJV
Gen 3:2-3
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
KJV
Rev 2:7
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
KJV
Rev 2:1
2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
KJV
Rev 1:13-15
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
KJV
John 20:19
19 Then the same day at evening[SATURDAY AFTER SUNDOWN}, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
KJV

Rev 5:6
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
KJV
Matt 18:20
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
KJV

This sort of rubbish is a clear example of how heresy gets started.

It isn't about trees, horse---, its about redemption. Redemption is based upon the blood of Christ - not tree sap.

And if you'd read the last chapter of the Bible, you'd learn that the tree of life reappears on the historic scene. In fact there's a whole grove of them lining the river that flows out of New Jerusalem. Revelation does a fine job of describing this remarkable plant stating that the tree will grow twelve kinds of fruit that will ripen each in a different month. The fruit shall be used to heal sickness of various kinds - improving and lengthening the quality of life.

But nowhere does any scripture talk about a third tree or even that any fruit of the tree of life will grant eternal life with God.

The nature of sin is soul deep and can only be cured by a spiritual and physical act of grace - Christ's death upon the cross. Super fruit and tasty tree syrup won't do it. They may make a fine breakfast addition or cure the common cold or even cancer, but nothing from any plant can save a single human soul. Only the blood.

And you can take that to the bank horse----

and that's just me, hollering from the choir loft...
