God
tell us about the tree of life in the book of Genesis and Revelation.
Those that eat its fruit can life forever in physical
form. Our Lord says:
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the
right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates.
Fact is, our Lord do wish for us to live forever. Actually, we know
that God loves us. Look at
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Christ tells us that He wants us to obey the will of his father.
1 John 2:17
The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God
lives forever.
There are two ways to gain eternal life. First is to be transformed
into a spirit being.
1 Corinthians 15:51-53
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all
be changed— in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last
trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised
imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must be clothed
with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.
OK, so what is the second way?
Genesis 3:22–24
Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us in
knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of
the tree of life and eat, and live forever—” therefore the Lord
God sent him out from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which
he was taken. He drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of
Eden he placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to
guard the way to the tree of life.
Adam was not a spirit being, but flesh and blood like us. However, if
he had eaten of the tree of life he would be alive now. Those that God
allows to eat of the tree of life are those that overcome sin.
Revelation 2:7
Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to eat from the
tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
Please do remember that the tree of life is in Paradise.

Hey,
we know God can give us eternal life while we are if physical form.
Christ says:
John 8:51-53
"Truly, truly, I tell you, if anyone keeps My word, he will never
see death.” “Now we know that You have a demon!” declared the Jews.
“Abraham died, and so did the prophets, yet You say that anyone who
keeps Your word will never taste death. Are You greater than our
father Abraham? He died, as did the prophets. Who do You claim to
be?” |

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the son of Almighty God. He does have the
power to take us to Paradise and allow us to eat of the tree of life so
that we never taste death ever. There are no limits to God's power.
He can move us across time or space. Paradise is more beautiful than
anything on earth, but God has said in a previous era.
1 Corinthians 2:9
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God
has prepared for them that love Him.
People often say that it is impossible to change the past due to the Grandfather
Paradox, but they are wrong. For God nothing is beyond His power.
Do notice that the Jews did not believe what Jesus was saying.
Christ has two ways... to give us eternal life.
Making us spirit beings or allowing us to eat the fruit of the tree
of life.
However, we do like the idea of not dying and eating of that
wonderful tree. May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and keep you.
