ISAIAH 55 - "THE LIFE"

"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: Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken." (Gen 3:22 & 23) Again: Let me ask you; Do you believe that you have an Eternal Soul? Do you know that you have an Eternal Soul? Have you ever seen your Eternal Soul? Well, I think I might have! That morning, when I saw the vision of that Train of a Brides Dress, which I believe it was to have been on the Throne, (as odd as that may sound); but for a brief second, I thought I saw my Eternal Soul within the fabric of that Train. Okay, Okay, Stop; you might be saying? I said it before, and I will say it again; I don't know for sure what I saw, but what ever it was, it shook my very soul; and some how, there was something there that was familiar to that soul. My Eternal Soul, that has been with me as long as I have been; and was reunited with God's Spirit, the day I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart. There was a death that took place in the garden of Eden on that day that Adam sinned; there was a separation between man's eternal soul and God's Spirit. We can not even begin to understand how this all works; much the same as we can not totally understand the Trinity; but what we must do, is believe it to be so, and know that one day, it will all become revealed. When God formed man and how this eternal soul was created, is shown in Genesis 2:7; "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." This soul that was created would never die; but would continue even after the body had passed away. The breath of life which God breathed into man's nostrils, was God's Spirit, which created the Eternal Soul. After sin was committed, there was a separation; God's Spirit was removed from man's eternal existence; but man's soul continued on without it; this was the death which God had warned about; and it did take place in that day. From that day, man has needed something to satisfy the longing of his Eternal Soul to be reunited with the Spirit of the Living God; and the Tree of Life in the midst of the garden was a source of the Spirit; hence man was removed from the garden. And guess what was placed there at the entrance, guarding the entrance from anyone that might try to enter; Jesus Christ himself was there; "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." (Gen 3:24) There is something we have to understand about what God created us for; He wanted us to love Him; not because we were created to love Him, but because we want to love Him. This is why He created us with a free will; so that we would not be forced into loving Him, but because of His great love for us, we would be driven to love Him; with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength. That tree of the knowledge of good and evil, was more of a representation of an idol; something that would cause us to love another, beside loving God, and Him alone. Basically, it was like committing adultery against God. Before that sin was committed, man was pure, undefiled; as a virgin if you will; that knew nothing eccept God's mighty love for him, and that God provided for all his needs; man knew nothing but good! Then sin; and then man knew evil as well good; for the first time, man could understand that there was a good and an evil; something that they could never do before; because as far as they knew prior to that point, all things were good; after all, God declared that everything was that way after He created everything. "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life:" Jesus declared this, and He meant it... He is that Flaming Sword, which turns every way, to keep the way of the Tree of Life...
