Truth Exposed: Eden
Something very interesting in Genesis 2 has struck me: in verse 9, two trees are named; the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But scripture never tells us what the fruit was. The world has assumed that it was an apple, but not so. Please. don’t perpetrate this great lie, this is false teaching. Whatever kind of fruit it was, it is still on the earth but not accessible on the earth today; it is under guard Genesis 3:24. In Genesis 2:16-17, Adam is instructed not to eat from the tree of knowledge, but not the tree of life. Interesting. Why didn’t Satan tempt Eve with the tree of life fruit? Most likely, if she had eaten that fruit, she, and everyone else, would live eternally with God, and that wasn’t, and still isn’t, something Satan can abide. His objective is to keep us from God, not to be eternally with him. Eden is still on this planet, but so are the guarding Cherubim. One day, we will see it.
