MANIFOLD MYSTERY OF THE TREES IN THE EDEN OF GOD

The Lord God revealed to me the beauty of everlasting life, true life that lasts into eternity, which as mysteriously hid in the tree of life in Eden,
When He said, “I have placed life eternal in the heart of him who delights in my commandments,” 1
“To Him whose hope and trust is in the Lord shall be like a tree planted by the river side, thus is the man who delights deeply in the law of the Spirit of life,2 and is pleased by the Word of the ALMIGHTY, the same is being grounded and taking roots in love,3 he will triumphantly grow high, this is the pilgrim of faith, and endlessly bear fruits in all seasons,4 there will be no dry season for him, this is the reward for the man whose hope in the Lord, God”
...Therefore give ear oh saints of the most High, in whom I am pleased, Hear the word of LIFE from my Mouth thou noble trees (vines) who Love the Law, planted in the Kingdom grounds by the holy faith in the Son, be ye deeply rooted in His the land of the living, your hope shall be rewarded
Adam and Eve became victims of the spirit of err because they kept not the Commandment of truth, a woman was not deeply grounded in the truth, could be deceived abandoned the first love, broke faith and her hope disappointed. This is the fate of all who delight not in the Law of liberty from Yahweh; instead they chose to believe in deception (A contra version of the Law)
Psalms 1:2-4, 80:8-10-18, Psalms 92:12-14,104:16, Revelation 7: 17, 21:6, 27, 22:1-6,
..............................................................................................
The Lord has disclosed the secret of His plan, so will I arise to prophecy!

THREE THINGS EVOLVE AT THE TREES PLANTED BY THE RIVER OF ALL LIFE IN THE KINGDOM, NOT WITHOUT THESE REMAIN ANY BLESSING

I. LOVE: BE YE ROOTED IN HIS LOVE ...
The essence of the first commandment of Yahweh is an invitation to Know LORD as one God, be rooted in Him , God is Love5, be ye perfect in His love, this is the foundational ground breaking blessing, and to receive this blessing is to receive Him, to whomever the love of God is poured, life of God is shared. Neither fear, nor condemnation will interfere, perfect love casts out fear, imparts confidence into the very presence of the Most High, confidence which without it no man shall stand before His court. Adam fell into fear because he had abandoned the first love, wanted to realize life independent of God/Love, but on the puffed up knowledge of the law (good and evil)

II. FAITH: ADOPT THE PILGRIM OF FAITH ...
This is evidence of success in God, though He is infinitely and invisibly ever present, His promise proves trustworthy, He is for sure a and a present reward to those who (seek) love Him He is pleased only by those who walk with Him in evidence of Trust Hebrews 11:6, to confirm Himself faithful and true one, to such He will establish His covenant as the evidence of Love; it is impossible to please (continue in His love) God without faith or perfect trust 6. Enoch excelled, in the walk with God, until he was no more, because God was pleased and took Him to Himself. The pilgrimage of faith is such mysterious that focus on the unseen and permanent realm. Eve did not continue in faith, she was deceived to focus her eyes on the world, (lust & pride), this was happening with the Galatians also, they had been deceived/bewitched to change their focus from the truth-faith inherent) to the law-fear inherent) Jesus asked those who followed him saying, “will the son of man find faith when He comes on earth?... In other words He is asking, whether men will continue in His love or not Luke 18:8.
The pilgrimage of faith is un upward pilgrimage, such mysterious voyage that focuses on the permanently existing realm, the unseen reality, Abraham is known to be the father regarding to faith since he walked the Way expecting to receive a reward, a city promised him was deemed not built with human hands, not something transient but the reality of true life everlasting Hebrews 11:10
Eve did not continue in faith, she was deceived and bewitched so to focus her hopes/ eyes on the world (she lusted and developed another perspective of realising true life lasting to eternity, the biblical term employed for such contra version of life is pride of life; this knowledge or realization of life does not come with Love, there can never be evidence of success in God, it is a consequential knowledge; one is puffed up with empty knowledge of the Law, to abandon the first love. Paul the apostle admonishing the Galatians would reason to say... was it not on basis of trust/faith to God that you received and experience His love poured into you as the gift not by the works of the law, why do I notice that you are adopting way of realizing life which is not dependent on trust in His demonstrated love through Christ Galatians chapter 3: which is the manifestation of pride, craving to be self sufficient, self sufficient on basis of your works of the law independent of God’s way realizing true life
The Law/ commandment of God is perfect, it stands mysteriously an authority to grant his subjects either life or death, the way to appropriate the law for life is faith/trust in His commandment, any other application of the law void of trust proves death.
Provided one is totally depending on God’s way of realizing life, his focus (trusting obedience) on truth rewarded, and faith-inherent realization of life manifests the graceful love of God; but to anyone who would desire to realize life contrary to God’s way and the truth, death is an inevitable; this is fear-inherent realization of life, it is satanic inspiration.
Godly perspective of the truth is life yielding (Love) if received with trusting obedience, from the bosom of life
Worldly (satanic) perspective of the truth is void of life; it is like the bosom of death, a trap of the soul, contraversion of the truth (biblical term employed is deception)
(Tree of life and the tree of knowledge in the midst of Eden)
III. HOPE: ANCHOR OF THE SOUL IN THE HOPE OF GLORY....
God is the substance of His promise, hope is the substance of love, Christ is the hope of glory in you now, a sure weigh, measurable deposit of life experienced, the promise He gives as the gift is eternal of life*), He says “I AM the Almighty God, walk before me in perfect trust, I am your very present, greatest reward,”7, so our hope in His promise does not disappoint at any time because, He can not become a disappointment in Himself. Both Adam and Eve, were vulnerable to loose what they had not realize in God because it gave them no assurance in the promise,...this is what He has promised us, eternal life 1John 2:25, what you don’t realize in spirit as yours from God, the same can be stolen, the enemy can either twist and distort your realization, or displace and replace it with a counterfeit, Adam was vulnerable in his lower nature, since the man of dust will always lust after worldly fashions, this is not so in the spirit, the spirit is always willing to obey, since he finds delight/no pleasure in worldly reality, so he will always want to serve the Law of justice. Flesh is totally an element pertaining to worldly reality (carnality) therefore can not take delight in the law of God to serve Him, can not realize the life of God and can not inherit the Kingdom. Spirit is and element pertaining to Godly reality desires to obey the truth and always willing to please God.
Realize your hope in God now before it is too late for you; to do that is taking hold of the right perspective on the truth, it is to refute the root that leads to bitterness, to allow oneself into all grace of God Adam did not cast their anchor into the deep, when the wind of strange knowledge blew, their hope of glory unrealized could be moved them, hope realized in God is the anchor of the soul settled deep in the waters of life, no wind can move the whole body, hope in God is the deposit / weight of assurance in our souls holding the promise at the throne of Mercy.
Right perspective of the truth of life increases the desire of the soul to wait upon the salvation of Yah, one will have a deep and holy desire for the promise of God in God’s terms... this is what hope does to us...placing in the saints greater and right expectation from the LORD, our hope founded only on the unfailing mercies of the Lord, He is the reason why we are not cut off Lament 3:21-26 this we must recall, this attitude we must bear if are to expect the Salvation of Yahweh, this realization becomes a shield by the assurance effected Hebrews 6:11,had Adam and Eve anchored/realized their hope for glory in the depths of Love, in the deep waters of life where no wind of deception overcomes things would have been fine.
This is what Yah has promised us, even eternal life, and our hope for life is realized in Love 1 John 2:25)

Matthew 3:10 Speaking of the trees planted by the Lord, says “And now also the axe is laid unto the roots of trees, therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire”

“My son get insight, above all get wisdom and knowledge of me which I had decreed before the ages for your justification, sanctification and glorification, be imparted with a secret and hidden Mystery of the Almighty” since this is the portion of the saints in the Lord your God I Corinthians 2:7

Get insight, get understanding of what has become of the historical tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil which God had planted presently in the midst of His garden (Paradise), the plant of reknown is the key that unlocks the manifold wisdom thereof, is that the true meaning and the right percept of reality leads life lasting to eternity but the perverted percept of the tree leads to eternal damnation of the spirit.

Man did not trust in this loving reality (truth) set before him by the Almighty, he disobeyed and fell in Sin by adopting no other reality apart from or independent from that which already exists, for there can never possibly be another Life everlasting apart from God.

God presented Himself the key of life and death in the threshold of the Kingdom, in the garden of Eden for man to choose and realize when He commanded therefore that man should excel a king, ruler and exercise dominion, by adopting no other reality apart from or independent from that which already exists, for there can never possibly be another Life everlasting apart from God, that’s the pride of life.

Man is a runaway, he had been driven away from his rightful prepared place, he had been banished from Eden of God, his prepared place of glory and of life eternal, and was left to dry up, (die) planted in the wilderness, natural ground, Ezekiel 32:4, 19:13); this wonderful place is deprived him because of sin and the entire race of Adam are under bondages of sin. And though God’s work of salvation is perfectly finished before the foundation of the world, it is unfolding from the beginning to the end of fulfilment; God seeks what has been driven away from its rightful place of glory, to His own glory Ecclesiastes 3:15, Ezekiel 34:16, 27, 29,

Why man was driven away from Eden after he has eaten of the forbidden fruit, what is the mystery of God in the tree of life?
In the latest apocalyptic book of the Bible, the Revelation, John gives us a hint of what is to be finished in the mystery of God, as He has declared to His servants the prophets Chapter 10:7
The mystery of God is embedded in His purpose as disclosed to the prophets of the Most High, He will have nothing established or finished of His plan of salvation without letting it revealed to his servants the prophets
Amos 7:14
Nothing is so much a big mystery in the heart of God as is His plan of great salvation, redemption of those chosen in the purpose of His will from before the foundation of the world were laid, anew creation anew order in which err and its inconveniences can not find a place as did happen at first, since God Himself has shared the fate of mankind(the vulnerable part, lower nature) and overcame, He is the redeemer of those under err and the terror of it, so much an amazing act is in the new covenant Isaiah 28:21, and so much divine is the mystery of God the redeemer, now it can be said of the saints that which could not be said before, “God acted upon His righteousness against err... no of the two realms (lower and upper) can bring again the separation experienced after the fall of man to those who are in the covenant love of God. Satan once managed through the way of playing with the lower nature to bring the separation, but this is no more to be observed in those redeemed of the Lord no cherub, no devil, nothing could ever bring the separation again, man has now complete victory through the covenant Romans 8:31-39

Job 11:7, 8 “Can you find out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limit of the Almighty? O mortal man, it is higher than the heights of heaven- what can you do? Deeper than endless pit what can you know?”

Proverbs 4:1 Hear o sons, you who love God and keep His Law, a Father’s instruction, be attentive that you may gain insight....wisdom is the principal thing, v.7 the beginning of knowledge of the Holy one is a humble Understanding, I urge you to buy the truth, be thou like that man of understanding, who after having discovered the treasure under the field went and sold every thing he had to buy the field Matthew 13:44-46....... Buy knowledge and then gain insight*

Romans 10:6 “Do not doubt in your heart to say “How will I know them? Who will ascend to the heights of heaven? (Because that is to deny Christ His right at the throne of mercy in the Most High after he rose from eternal death, abyss, or Sheol) or to say in doubts of the Word again, “Who will descend into the abyss/endless pit?” (Because that is equally to deny what God has granted when He brought Christ from the dead)

Deuteronomy 30:11-14.The word or the mystery of life is set in your heart, the word is very near you, both life and death are in the power of your tongue and lips, based on application of what is heard, through your faithful obedience you let it implanted in your heart. The word mixed with faith in you is salvation, Hebrews 4:2
I Corinthians 2:9, That which no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man conceived, God has prepared for those who love and delight in His Law*, He has revealed it to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God

The law of liberty and the law of sin, a twofold representation of the mystery of the tree of life and the tree of knowledge placed at the midst of Eden, God’s Law is also spoken in the scripture as a two edged sword, cutting asunder the spirit of err, able to affect both life to those who love God and uphold it, and it is the odour of death to those who perish, proves death to the disobedience. The knowledge of the letter applied without charity killeth, but the spirit of the letter seeks/giveth life 1 Corinthians 8:1-3, since the Kingdom of God is not in letter/word but in power/love, love is strong than death

Life after the fall is like...., a disappointment to man, but not to God, God’s purpose began to unfold right away after the great fall, the unchangeable character of God’s purpose was set to operation; there was still hope in God for a tree cut down Job 14:7-9

For I know that the Law of God is good, just and spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin, I am a slave of sin, I can’t serve God, I’m incapable to do the right things, because the master,(king of Tyrus, Ezekiel 28) in me drives my members to his will, I no longer have the power to do the right thing which I learn from the Law of God, Rom 7:7-12 so the Law of God which promised life proved death to me, because of sin, ....For I delight in the Law of God in my inmost self (spirit) Rom 7:22

The Lord God had placed eternity in man’s heart, but man does not understand it. Ecclesiastes 3:11

Eternity is a twofold endless scroll/book, this book was sealed after the fall of man, God removed man from the garden to go and till the natural ground from which he was formed, he no longer was available in the place of glory, from thence the eternal voice was heard from the throne of Mercy saying, Who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof?, no man wherever was found worthy to open and read it,.....of this book one fold avails eternal damnation, and there goes everyone whose name is not found in the fold of life, as did the rich man in Jesus’ story recorded in Luke 16:19, and the other fold avails eternal blessedness of life. A bosom of Abraham, a fountain of abundant life

†In the midst of Eden God placed the twofold tree of eternity, the fold of life and the fold of death.
†This tree stands for the authority of the Word of God, the Law of God. Set before man to be the centre of destinies to eternity, I set before you life and death, be wise choose life and live.
†Even so the tongue is centred among our member, a world of destiny, a fountain of power that drives the course of life and death, the tongue is set on execution of either fire of destruction/hell or glory of life James 3, 5

THE SETTING OF PARADISE OF GOD (EDEN) IS A PICTURE OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
God makes it known the secrets of the Kingdom to His own, the mystery of God is disclosed only to the sons through the Son Rev.10:7,) The beauty of Eden is assigned to last by His command embodied in the tree in the midst of Eden.
To signify the way God would establish His everlasting Kingdom prepared for those He had chosen according to foreknowledge of His will, that they be part of royal family, a hint of prophecy perfectly displayed through in the setting of Eden.

What the first Adam could do with the tree in the midst of the garden, is truly a destiny picture of the fallen humanity and the entire race of Adam experience the fate of sin he committed, which is eternal damnation.
Only in the second Adam can there be a new creation, a new destiny to all those born anew after the image and likeness of Jesus Christ the Lord, He is the perfect and exact image of true life, the tree of everlasting Life, the living fountain of water, green, full of sap and preserved, He is also the figure of the Law of justice appropriated to life.
What Adam did with the trees in Eden is a picture of what you do with Christ today, he is the tree in the midst will determine eternity future of your heart

Tips of insight ON MAN PARADISE AND GOD:
*God made man an individual unique, created in His image and likeness and different from all other creatures, for a purpose that would last to eternity, so that man can be the man for dominion above all the creation of God
Man is wonderfully and fearfully made, made in God’s image, it is the Image of essence of Deity he reflects as man, (not the form/ not human physical shape), and in His likeness, likeness of purpose, plan and will, in man is a picture of Christ and the Church, man is made from two different realms, first from the transient visible realm (flesh from out of the dust, ground Genesis 2:7) second from the permanent invisible realm (breath of life from the nostrils of God) and so he became a living soul in himself. Man was then brought into the garden which God had prepared before hand, to be part of it and as a ruler (the concept of royal priesthood to God)
* Man was driven away from Eden for a reason, since because of sin He could not continue in the ministry of dominion as ruler and priest of the Most high, Only God had a solution in His manifold wisdom. Genesis 3:23-24
Though man had fallen by following his lower nature through deception of the serpent, this only ushered the beginning for the unchanging purpose of the Lord to begin unfolding, The beauty of Eden is the evidence of true Life lasting to eternity secured, this beauty is not in the world, not in the natural ground, not of carnality, since the world will perish together with those who love it, (lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and the pride of life) the whole field is the world, but in the Eden of God is the good seed for the children of the kingdom, the tares are the children of the wicked one, and Jesus would liken and refer to the Kingdom with parables, in His teaching, he would say, the kingdom of God is no matter of observation Luke 17:20,21 it is the substance of life everlasting within you, He taught His disciples to pray ... THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE.... Man must ask with all sincerity of heart to be granted to enter the kingdom, as did the penitent thief at Calvary, and Jesus promised to be with Him in the paradise of God. Matthew 23:42-43God has His garden protected for His elect, the Kingdom of God is secured, and the unchanging character of His purpose, in so is the work of salvation a mystery of God, since the work of salvation is perfectly finished from before the foundation of the world and God continually receives glory honour and power according to the mighty of His Majesty; with no doubt that in His Christ God demonstrated to be the only dependable redeemer of His own possession from err and inconveniences against His purpose, in this goal God would determine before hand who(all individuals) to be the subject of His mercy, and who would be the subject of His wrath, not because anyone had committed anything good or wrong in person, but His righteousness granted rules over all, in which He freely justified those He had chosen for mercy in Himself and others He charged for His Just requirement violated...God is seeking a people, who are part of His will and purpose, Eccl. 3:15, John 4:23,24.
*Eden is a permanent realm of life prepared for those redeemed of God, those who trust in Him will be like the trees planted in the Eden of God
God seeks that which had been driven away from its rightful place, this is what the Bible calls restoration of all things; God forbidden man from reaching the second fold of the tree in the midst of Eden for a reason, that in everything He could work for good to restore those who love Him and are called for His purpose,....to him who overcomes I will give access to eat of the tree of life which is in the midst of the paradise of God Revelation2:7, 22:14
*Paradise or Eden of God Is a Parable of the Kingdom
Ezekiel 31:4,5,8-9,14-18, 28:13, Genesis 2: 8-17, 3:1-15
God planted multitude of noble tree in a garden, His choicest field, abundantly watered by the river of living water, symbol of His love
Ezekiel prophecies that all the trees of Eden were thrown into the pit, together with the offending cherub, but we see in scripture for an exceptional the tree of life in the midst of Eden preserved to last forever Jesus Christ spoke of Himself as the true vine of life, John 15:11, the tree full of sap, green, and likened us with the trees Luke 23:31;Tree in the midst of Eden is a twofold symbolism of His person; The tree of knowledge of good and evil is one aspect of the figure of God, only from Him do we have the Law of Justice, He is the Lawgiver, He stands to execute judgments of what is evil on basis of His Law, and a rewarder of what is good, what is pleasing, acceptable and perfect on basis of His law of justice.
The tree of life symbolizes Him, who is the only giver of life everlasting, He alone is all life, and this life is of himself in himself, there is none as God besides Himself, who has life of himself in himself and give the same to another, none can threaten, none can plunder, cut or take life from God, He alone has power and authority and control of all life to give it to whomever He is pleased, and take it back to Himself, none takes it from Him. With thee is the fountain of life Psalms 36:9

*The prophecy of Agur ben Jakeh to Ithiel and Ucal as recorded in Proverbs 30:1-4 is a hint to the Mystery
The words of Agur give insight on the true identity of the Almighty, though he said it as one who has no knowledge of the holy. Yahweh is here perceived as one Who: Is in the Most High places of heaven forever living, also one that descended to the nether parts of Sheol/Death. He is one that has gathered the Wind in his fists (he has all life everlasting, he has the breath of true life under his own control), even can bind the same infinity nature of life in the finite body of humanity. What is his name? And what is his Son’s name, if thou can tell?
Hebrews 7:38. This is he that was in the church in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to Moses in the Mount Sinai and with the saints, giving the oracles of life.
