@Plaeton I've asked u this question before and I'll ask u again, don't you think it is illogical for you to try and explain the bible the way you just did and have been doing since its clearly states its foolishness to you? |

noblefada: @Plaeton I've asked u this question before and I'll ask u again, don't you think it is illogical for you to try and explain the bible the way you just did and have been doing since its clearly states its foolishness to you? That's a moronic question that you know does not deserve an answer. Do my posts pinch or prick a certain previously unused and unknown part of your brain? The fact is that you do not understand your bible, probably have never read it, and it embarrasses you when a non-sunday school person puts things in standard english for you. 1 Like |

noblefada: You said the tree of life is Jesus. Your explaination not tangible for it to be accepted |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by noblefada: 6:06pm On Sep 29, 2013 |
plaetton:How can I be embarrassed by you, when the bible clearly says its foolishness to you? Let tell u, on like other xtians I've studied by bible well and I still studying, bin seeing a lot of ur posts and there are due to ignorance of the scriptures, if only u were willingly to learn, I would have explained things to you. But again what makes u think you know the bible very well since its clearly states they're foolishness to you or should quote the scriptures? |

noblefada: Honestly , my most embarrassing moments on Nl are when I find myself exchanging posts with people who have as much mental agility as a loaf of bread . You have no idea how completely embarrassed I am. |

FOLYKAZE:For God sake it's not suppose to be tangible, you ask questions about an illogical book but expect a tangible answer, it cannot work, that's the dilemma non believers will have. He that's has the son has eternal life. |

Firstly the whole account of the garden of eden is a revelation - nobody was there to tell d story! Moses received it as a revelation, like the book of revelations. Therefore it is understandable to see that Adam is a reference to 'male' (not a single person) and Eve to female. From here you can see that a revelation as such is a highly spiritual illustration. The Tree of Life is pure living Truth emanating from The Lord all-mighty. When found it sustains and leads to everlasting life in paradise. Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the Life |

ashybabs: while some totaly missed the point, going totaly out of context, i think youngzedd was closest to the answer giving us the precise scripture where the answer to this ingenious question. alas he gave us no explanation. Yeah, according to the scripture the path to the tree of life is guarded. That tree is immortality which if Adam and Eve ate then, they would have been completely immortal. Now, my question is who made that tree? I mean who planted the tree? That "also" on the scripture shows that some beings has been eating and also have access to it. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by Youngzedd(m): 12:53pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
noblefada: Nawaaaa. This is the beginning bro, Adam and Eve was restricted from eating the tree and the path to the tree is guarded. Now, was Jesus restricted from us? " 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[a] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life. " The main thing we do not know which has been hidden from mankind is where exactly the tree is located and if it still exist till now. The tree is immortality. |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by Youngzedd(m): 1:22pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
@OP Even till next life, you can explain why that happened and where the tree is. In conclusion, leave those stuff and do the right thing always |

FOLYKAZE: Took a glance through the bible this morning, I was stucked exactly at Genesis 2:9, i read little further to Genesis 3:22-24 where 'tree of life was mention. The first bible verse stated that God planted the tree alongside tree of knowledge while the second verse state that God removed the tree for man to search for it. It is obvious that you didn't understand the verses you read in Bible. What you posted above is not what is in bible. The bible did not say God remove the tree of life for us to search. You added to it. This is what Genesis 2;9 mean. It means that God grew many tree that are good to be looking and good for food in the garden of Eden. Among all those tree there were also tree of life and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. the tree of life is a whole tree on its own. the tree of knowledge of good and evil is another tree on his own. So the bible is talking about two different tree in that verse. You said what is tree of life ? The tree of life is a tree that grow and have it edible fruit like fruit of knowledge of good and evil. It is not symbol at all. Adam and Eve hate the fruit of knowlege of good and evil and their eye were opened .they know what is good and bad but they were sent away before they could eat of fruit of life. That is what Genesis 3:22 says. in similarity with this the book of Revelation tells us that anybody that make it to heaven will be the people that will eat of tree of life and they will live for ever .Revelation 2:7 with Revelation 2:7 Jesus is not tree of life. |

FOLYKAZE: Many christians are been played in churches and only few took time to read bible on their own. To understand the term called tree of life, we need to take a step forward unto another verses in bible for us to understand what specifically it speaking about instead of building our tales from pastor on it.what is wisdom? How/ where can ì find wisdom? |

Ayomivic: Seek your brain |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by Ayomivic(m): 8:10pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
FOLYKAZE: If you are not a christian pls stop interpreting scripture wrongly. Why, must you explain what you don't understand? pls stop it .it can mislead people. iam afraid, you are not a christian because you are ignorant of truth. |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by Ayomivic(m): 8:17pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
Dieu_merci: The tree of life refers to an eternal life in God's presence. from what you wrote here the tree of life is not an enternal life but it gives enternal life. |
Re: What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by FOLYKAZE(m): 9:56pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
Ayomivic: ex-christian. Are you cool with that? If I cant read bible cuz im not christian, I wonder how you going to preach to me without bible. Could that me eating your lies without doing like the thessalonian that check the scripture everyday to confirm the message received? The bible pages should serve well in toilet. Your choice |
