What Man Must Do To Have A Right To The Tree Of Life by jesusjnr2020(m): 8:10am On Oct 22, 2023 |
What Man Must Do To Have A Right To The Tree Of Life Man lost the right to the tree of life after he disobeyed the God's commandment (Word) in the beginning. Genesis 3:22-24 Here's what man must do to regain that right to the tree of life according to Jesus. Revelations 22:14 (KJV) Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. Jesus is the Word of God man disobeyed in the beginning which made man lose his right to the tree of life, hence for man to regain the right to the tree of life, man must obey the commandments of Jesus, the Word of God. That's what Jesus Himself says man must do to regain the right to the tree of life. God bless. 10 Likes

This is yet another proof that the doctrine of salvation by grace alone, not by works is antichrist, because this is the doctrine of salvation according to Christ Himself who paid the price to give man a second chance to partake of the tree of life. Christ says man must obey His commandments (works) to have a right to the tree of life! This is what He commanded us to teach all men to do, so we are only doing our part in obedience. Matthew 28;20 We must obey God rather than men! God bless. 6 Likes |

Jesus: The Way, the Truth, and the Life This poster, you have zeal but without knowledge. Instead of making yourself a resident pastor on nairaland like the other zealot righteousness, why don't you go spend time visiting the orphanage,or the sick in the hospitals or doing some kindness work in your area instead of all this Sunday service you do about stuff that you're not knowledgeable about. Tree of life, go and eat the tree na. Silly people everywhere |

Dying at birth is the surest and least stress free way I have a little cousin that won this jackpot of a lifetime, while others were crying for him I was legit over happy for him I mean, man was 12 years old when he fortunately died, he goes to heaven straight away for doing absolutely nothing than dying early, he even died without Christ Fast forward to today (14 years later) if he had died now at age 26 his chances of going to hell will have skyrocketed Death at 12 without Jesus ... express ticket to heaven Death later on in life even if the life is very boring, hard and uneventful and not necessarily a serious Christian ...you go to hell Isn't it a blessing and gracious to die early ? Do you think dieing early to have eternal life is a sacrifice too much? |

The question is, what are the commandments of the Son of God that will give you right of way to the tree? The tree has laws and demands you must meet. Anyone who really wants it must be serious with Spirit life...not distracted by modern world and must take obedience seriously at its peak. //datsall 2 Likes |

Go back to traditional spirituality, these foreign religions were created in Rome and Saudi Arabia, we saw how they forced us here to accept them, it's a tool of man to control, these religions will take you nowhere. Jesus was not preaching religion. |

THE TREE OF LIFE, ISNT THAT A BEAUTIFUL FIGURE OF SPEECH ? THE BIBLE IS A BOOK OF SYMBOLS AND TREES WERE USED ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE AS SYMBOLS OF HUMAN BEINGS. JOHN THE BAPTIST IN MATTHEW 3; 8-10 WAS IN THE WILDERNESS CRYING THAT THE AXE WAS LAID ON THE ROOT OF EVERY TREE, THAT EVERY TREE THAT DIDNT BEAR GOOD FRUITS, WAS TO BE CUT DOWN AND THROWN INTO FIRE. THERE HE WAS NEITHER REFERRING TO MANGO TREES NOR PAWPAW TREES BUT HUMAN BEINGS. SINCE THE TREE OF WAS WAS THE ONLY SOURCE OF ETERNAL LIFE IN EDEN AND SINCE THE BIBLE IS NOT CONTRADICTORY, THE TREE OF LIFE WAS ONLY A SYMBOL OF THE ONLY PERSON THROUGH WHOM WE CAN GET ETERNAL LIFE AND THAT PERSON IS CHRIST. 1JOHN 5:11-12, THIS IS THE RECORD THAT GOD HAS GIVEN US LIFE ETERNAL AND THIS LIFE ETERNAL IS ONLY, (ONLY WITH EMPHASIS) FOUND IN CHRIST. JESUS-CHRIST THE WORD MADE FLESH WAS RIGHT THERE IN EDEN AND SATAN WAS ALSO THERE AS EZEKIEL 28-13 SAID REFERRING TO SATAN, ' THOU HAS BEEN IN EDEN THE GARDEN OF GOD'. A LITERAL TREE CANT GIVE ETERNAL LIFE, NO, IT WILL CONTRADICT THE REST OF THE SCRIPTURES. ETERNAL LIFE (ZOE) IS THE LIFE OF GOD HIMSELF, AND LIFE IS ALWAYS CONTAINED INSIDE BLOOD AND TREES HAVE NO BLOOD. cfountainoftruth@yahoo.com 1 Like |

jesusjnr2020:U just successfully demonstrated how poor translation of a text can lead to erroneous doctrines such as we see in churches today! The place in Revelation is saying ROBE. But KJV foolishly translated it commandment U find that convenient to build a sermon on the latter. It’s amazing how u can pick KJV above pretty much more modern and better efforts at translating the Bible. |

Did Christ ask them to change His Word? They have hence made His Word to be of little or none effect in the lives of men because of such unwarranted changes. 1 Like |
