The Tree Of Life

 Proverbs 11:30  The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

According to the scripture, the LORD God filled the garden of Eden with all kinds of beautiful trees and fruit trees, and the tree of life along with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil were in the middle of the garden.

God instructed the man not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil because it kills. But when man disobeyed, he was cast out of the garden. As a punishment for his disobedience, the tree of life was guarded by a flaming sword which turned every way to deny man's access to the tree that could make him live forever.

Because of Adam, God's anger was upon all humankind, the Bible says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God," Romans 3:23

God in His mercy decided to make peace with man, and He made a new agreement with man through the blood of the innocent Lamb, "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins". Matthew 26:28

The blood of Jesus was taken to the court of heaven to purchase our freedom and to make us acceptable to God.

"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life," the blood of Jesus Christ has made us justifiable to God, and the access to the tree of life has been approved. Jesus Christ is the tree of life, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life," John 3:16

If you really want to live, you must give your life to Christ and forsake your sins.
