1. This morning I did, regarding the Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil. It was a good tree. Nothing poisonous about it. It was just the one tree God said to not eat of.
So? It was a Holy Tree. Special. The knowledge of good & evil is this. To eat of this tree, you would disobey God. To not eat of it is obeying God. Eating the fruit did't kill them. Disobeying God did. That is what evil is. Disobeying/rebelling Gods Word. To disobey God realizing this is sin & sin is evil.
What killed them 1st, was actually then denied the Tree of Life & so dieing 'spiritually'. Then physical death happened within 1000 yrs.
So? This is like the 1st tithe. We can touch it. Smell it. Just not eat of it. It is Holy to the Lord.
2. Then also, Jesus is the firstling, born as shepherds are in the field. He is the 'Lamb of God' So? The firstling is a tithe. (Like Able) So? He fulfilled the tithe on the cross? Paying Himself for us.
What do you think of the new understandings?
