STEEM BIBLE TRUTH
The first book of the bible GENESIS and the creation is one if the most popular books and stories in the bible as every christain and non-christain reader usually begin studying the Bible from this book.
My purpose of writing today on steemit is to reveal a truth and a hidden truth from the very story of creation.
The bible recorded that God create light, day and night, trees, birds, animals and the rest of the creatures and on the last day man was created. Man was created from the dust and God breathed upon him the breathe LIFE. He gave him an environment to live in and a Job to do (fulfillment of God's purpose). Then God showed the man something very important, he showed him the the two MIDDLE 🌲 (Trees). This is where the revelation lies: Those tree were not just tress but they were two kind of life. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil and the tree life.
Let me explain further:
THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL
This Tree represent a self-centered kind of life. A life that depends on one's own effort to live right. It's a kind of life that justify righteousness by right and wrong (WORKS). This life is death in itself and God puts it "THE DAY YOU SHALL EAT OF IT THOU SHALL SURELY DIE " This sounds too certain. Note that it wasn't God killing Adam but the Fruit of the tree, The fruit of the Tree is a deadly poison that kills instantly. God created man to be fully dependent and focused on him to the extent he wasnt aware of his physical appearance or infirmities (He was naked from the beginning he wasnt concerned about that) But when he ate of the fruit of death, he's first response of that of self assessment: he judged himself by his outward appearance and deviated from his focus (CHRIST).
In my next post I'll discuss how this affects us today in Christianity
Thanks for reading through
God bless you.
