THE TREE OF LIFE!
Genesis 2:8-9 - And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed. 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 midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Genesis 3:22-24 - 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 forever: therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, (where He had placed him) to till the ground from where he was taken. So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep (guard) the way of the Tree of Life.
Proverbs 3:13, 18 - Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding. . . . She is a Tree of Life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retains her.
Proverbs 11:30 - The fruit of the righteous is a Tree of Life; and he that wins souls is wise.
Proverbs 13:12 - Hope deferred makes the heart sick: but when the desire comes, it is a Tree of Life.
Proverbs 15:4 - A wholesome tongue is a Tree of Life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
Revelation 2:7 - He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the Tree of Life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Revelation 22:2, 14 - In the midst 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. . . . Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
THE TREE OF ETERNAL LIFE!
Acts 5:30-32 - The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, Whom you slew and hanged on a tree. Him has God exalted with His right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. And we are His witnesses of these things....
Acts 10:39-41 - And we are witnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; Whom they slew and hanged on a tree: Him God raised up the third day, and showed Him openly; not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with Him after He rose from the dead.
Acts 13:29-31 - And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took Him down from the tree, and laid Him in a sepulcher. But God raised Him from the dead: and He was seen many days of them which came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses unto the people.
Galatians 3:13-14 - Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
1 Peter 2:24 - Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by Whose stripes you were healed.
IT WAS ON A TREE THE LORD JESUS DIED;
A CROSS WHERE OUR SINS WERE NAILED;
BY FAITH IN HIM WHOM HIS FATHER RAISED,
WE RECEIVE THE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE!
