In Genesis chapter 2 we see a tree in the middle of the garden called, The Tree Of Life, in front of which man was placed. When God created man in His image and with His likeness, He intended that man would express Him and represent Him (Gen. 1:26) – and the way for man […]

having a daily life of the New Jerusalem: drinking from the river of life and eating the tree of life!
This morning I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that today we as believers are living the life of the New Jerusalem today! What we see in Revelation that happens in the New Jerusalem is / should be our experience today – only on a smaller scale! In that day when we arrive at the ultimate consummation […]

God’s eternal purpose as revealed in the seven figures in Genesis 2
While reading and enjoying Genesis chapter 2, with the help of the Life-Study and the footnotes in the Recovery Version, I was impressed with the seven figures presented in Genesis 2. Actually, this picture has been drawn by God Himself in His Word and reveals to us what is in His mind and what He […]

the real worship of God is to eat Him and drink Him in our spirit
Recently I have been very impressed with God’s desire and seeking for worshippers – those who worship Him in spirit and in truthfulness. God wants us to worship Him, yet nowhere in the Bible we are told that we need to prostrate ourselves before Him and bow down/kneel down to worship Him. Rather, both the […]

We can sow and plant Christ as the tree of life! It is God who gives the growth!
Christ said, “I am the vine…” (John 15:1), “I am the bread of life” (John 6:35), and “I am the way, the reality, and the life” (John 14:6). These verses show us that Christ is the tree of life – a vine tree, reaching out everywhere, full of the divine life. And we are the […]

we depend on what we eat and we become what we eat: let’s eat Christ!
I’m still considering the picture in the garden of Eden, which is actually what is going on within us today: we are being put in front of the two trees daily – the tree of the knowledge of GOOD and evil, and the tree of life. The simple fact that God cares so much about […]
