Re: [TruthTalk] Strawmen
Dave scripture is understood in the light of other scripture and calling it the tree of death does not change anything What was the result of their partaking of it? God said "In the day you eat you shall surely die" They ate and they immediately lost fellowship with the source of life and light. That day they died spiritually and became mortal, that is, they began to die physically as well. So how is calling this tree a tree of death spinning anything? You think death and dying are a good thing - rather than an enemy that has caused mankind to live in fear from that time on?

Re: [TruthTalk] Strawmen
Huh ??? If you are saying that Adam and Eve made a choice betweenknowledge and life -- well, I would agree. But, if they were immortal, that was not a choice they had to make -- they didn't need the Tree of Life. Or, are you saying that the Tree of Life is allegory? jd-Original Message-From: Judy Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.orgCc: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.orgSent: Fri, 9 Dec 2005 09:52:41 -0500Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Strawmen God's wisdom is a tree of life JD AE rejected it in favor of the tree of death On Fri, 09 Dec 2005 09:38:42 -0500 [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: So, you decided to ignore my comment about the Tree of Life?Adam and Eve were not given any restrictions concerningeating from this tree.
