Subject: why the one when not the other |
Bible Note: Thankyou for you answer.But I dont think you have understood the question. if they had NOT eaten of the tree of the knowldge of good and evil and that was Gods will then they would never had died. Why then a tree of life? that clearly in one way or the other gave eternal life for if they had ate of it then they would have lived for ever.for that is what the scriptures say. gerald |
