The Tree of Life (Revelation 22:2)

The Bible says that when God created all things, He also made sprout the TREE OF LIFE in the middle of the garden of Eden.

Genesis 2:9 ​And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

The tree of life was established by God so that man could enjoy its fruit and live eternally with God.

Genesis 3:22 ​And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: 23 ​Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from from where he was taken. 24 ​So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

The tree of life does not only symbolize eternal life, but it symbolizes ETERNAL LIFE AT GOD'S SIDE.

For man to eat the fruit of this tree it is necessary that he be prepared and very close to God, because that food comes from God himself and only those who are faithful to God, who rejected sin and accepted the sovereignty of Jesus over their lives, because those who continue to sin, are rebelling against God, as Adam and Eve did, and God's response to these people will also be the same given to Adam and Eve, that is, they will be separated from God, far from the Lord and deprived of the right to live beside God eternally, and they WILL NEVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO EAT THE FRUIT OF THE TREE OF LIFE.

Revelation 2:7 ​He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the middle of the paradise of God.

The TREE OF LIFE is ready to feed all nations, GOD ESTABLISHED IT, and it was created with you in mind, DO NOT REJECT IT, be faithful to God, love the Lord with all your heart and with all your soul and then, you he will never be hungry and will be fed by the Tree of Life in perpetuity.

Revelation 22:2 ​In the middle of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bore twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 ​And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: 4 ​And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 5 ​And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God gives them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. 6 ​And he said to me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to show to his servants the things which must shortly be done.

The Lord bless you and keep you.
