:smiley40: God shed his very own blood and died on a tree to save us and this was because man ate of the forbidden and man has also lived and done the forbidden (SIN) man is born in sin and has no hope of dying to the sin nature he is born with except he accepts what JESUS DID ON THE CROSS :smiley40: why do you believe Jesus taught death of self to his disciples because the (self) in man is so selfish he would eat the ONE tree God said in the day you do you will die , then look God has to do all the work to save man and he did it on Calvary at the CROSS :smiley40:

Just wanted to add,
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding
She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
Pro 3:13,18
Wisdom is a tree of life. And yes, that is Christ as well. :smiley10:
:smiley90: Love that scripture , God Bless You for that word John -Jervis it was awesome reading and discovering from the word that Jesus is our tree of life in the New Covenant and I would also like to begin a study on something not studied yet :smiley90: about the Holy Spirit and the New Covenant
This is the verse critics use to say the Bible isn't true. Because they think if it was they would have suddenly dropped dead.
Their bodies did immediately began to GRADUALLY die, and spiritually they DID die immediately. We are spirit beings created in the image of God who is a Spirit. So although Christ had redeemed us, thats only 1/3 of us redeemed. Our bodies and minds are not redeemed yet. Our mind needs to be renewed to the Word of God daily and one day we will get that new glorified body and be 100 % completely redeemed.
