In the middle of paradise grew a fig tree. It was the Tree of Knowledge. The young vine of the Tree of Life was entwined around the trunk of this fig tree on the one hand, and the wise and cunning Serpent entwined the trunk of this fig tree on the other side. When primitive people, savages, began to comprehend the spiritual world, when people gave names to abstract concepts and the language appeared the names of the instinctive qualities of the soul, "lion" is courage, "ox" is hard-working, "wolf" is predation, "donkey" is stubborn, "hare" is cowardice — among these qualities there was not one that would become a person's assistant. Then the Lord God took and created from the "bone", that is, from the essence of this primitive, ancient man, helper, "wife", that is, the opinion of others, and Adam, that is, Man began to rely on the opinion of others. Eve, that is, Opinion became an assistant for every modern person. This man, Adam, was a carnal man, an individualist. Such a person seeks first of all his own benefit, he is an egoist. Therefore, the Lord God forbade the carnal Adam to eat the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge: the egoist will use all knowledge to his own advantage to live at the expense of other people. But people are people: someone began to eat the fruits of Knowledge, because the Serpent, that is, cunning, gave such advice. Adam saw: all around are already tasting Knowledge. Who first started - it does not matter. When people tasted the fruits of the tree of Knowledge, they saw their sinful nature. In order to somehow hide their egoistic nature, people began to justify themselves with the help of the leaves of the same fig tree of Knowledge: they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. The Lord God saw that people had broken His commandment. God cursed earthly wisdom: in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. God cursed the human environment: the birth of the future human type is accompanied by torment, and the leaders dominate the human environment. In the book of Judges there is a wonderful parable about how the Blackthorn of general condemnation began to reign over humanity. A person who eats the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge sees the sins of other people, he cannot but condemn these sinful people, and he himself becomes a victim of the same condemnation from others: judge not, that ye be not judged, for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged. When the time came, and the elect of Israel people grew up on earth, the Lord God decided to plant in the midst of this people his Paradise Fig tree: God gave Moses the Law, which teaches to distinguish Good and Evil. The fig tree was supposed to bear fruit, the fulfillment of the Law was to bring about the result: the righteousness of the Jews. When Jesus Christ came, He wanted to taste the fruits of this fig tree, but this tree was fruitless. Jesus Christ cursed this fig tree and it immediately dried up. A dried fig tree was cut down and a cross was made from a felled tree, on which Jesus Christ, the Righteous, was hanged, instead of the fruit that was to grow on this tree. But here's a miracle: Instead of Jesus Christ, the Serpent was nailed on this tree. The New Testament lists 12 or 13 fruits of the Spirit. Each fruit of the Spirit from the New Testament corresponds to one of the trees mentioned in the Old Testament books. Love — apples Joy — grapes, wine Peace — mulberry berries Longsuffering — almond nuts Goodness — etrog (citron) Gentleness — the scent of myrtle Faith (faithfulness) — olives, olive oil Meekness — the beauty of willow Temperance — pomegranate Holiness — date fruits Truth — oranges Righteousness — figs Wisdom — walnut In the spiritual sense, trees in Holy Scripture correspond to lengthy processes in man or in humanity, which can produce results (fruit) or be fruitless. Everything described in the first chapters of Genesis is a parable. This should be understood not literally, but as images, similar to images from the book of Revelation. All Scripture is written by one Author, and all images from different books of the Bible correspond to each other. Science does not contradict the Bible, the theory of evolution and the creation of the world described in the Bible speak of various things.
A gifted Christian in a visionary dream claims to have been given a message from Adam..... I personally take this as a sign we are in the time of the fulfillment of Malachi chapter 4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Mal 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: Mal 4:6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. A message from Adam to all mankind by Rick Joyner.
Rick Joyner is a false prophet. The Christian religion is imbued with this false spirit. Elijah the prophet has already come: But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist. (Matthew 17:12,13)
If there is a copyright sign on a religious book, this is a sign of a false religion. If religion preaches tithe, this indicates a false spirit in that religion.
