The Tree of Life (Ch. 22)
Manage episode 372329940 series 3408678
All throughout the Bible, we see garden imagery that show that God is the source of all life. In Episode 20 we discussed that the River of the Water of Life flows directly from God’s throne and is full of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit infused river waters the Tree of Life. Because of this, every atom, every cell, every leaf, and all the fruit of the tree is bursting with life. The branches have leaves that heal the relationship between God and humanity and they yield fruit each month to bring nourishment for eternal life. Like Adam and Eve, we must choose to accept God’s offer of healing, nourishment, and eternal life or to choose our own death by trying to make ourselves a god who decides our own personal good and evil.
Main Question
Will you let God’s life giving Spirit flow through you so you can bear fruit for the kingdom of God?
Main Verse: Revelation 22:1-5
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him.

Key Takeaways
- Nature was and is important to God because it is His creation. always had it in mind that He would commune with mankind in a garden setting. That has not changed.
- Man decided he wanted to usurp God’s place and this led to God’s curse upon mankind.
- Before the fall there was peace and harmony with God. After the fall came the curse and men became violent and sinful in a world ravaged by death.
- God made a plan to restore mankind to Himself by using one man, Abram, and his family.
- Through his line came Jesus our Savior who took the curse of death upon Himself. Those who choose Jesus are freed from the curse forever.
- Freedom from the curse means that Christians will be able to be healed and nourished by the Tree of Life in the New Heaven and New Jerusalem.
- We are saved by grace rather than by works. However, Jesus expects us to be transformed because of His free gift. We are supposed to bear fruit for His kingdom and share the good news of Jesus with others without changing the perfect message of the gospel.
