ESOTERIC KNOWLEDGE: UNDERSTANDING THE MYSTERY OF THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL (PART ONE)


The revelation I am sharing with you, is something the Lord opened my eyes to in 2007, but I have not shared with anyone before now, because the time was not yet right. There are things the Lord reveals to you; then He asks you to seal it up, till the right time. Understanding the origin of sin and what the first sin actually was, is the key to walking in effortless holiness. A lot of people want to break free from bad habits and secret sins; all they need is knowledge.Many believe that the tree of the knowledge of good and evil talked about in Genesis, is the tree of distinguishing ‘right’ from ‘wrong’. They believe that Adam and Eve could not distinguish ‘right’ from ‘wrong’ until they ate of the forbidden fruit. Now, if that is true, that would mean that, it was only after Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit that they knew that they had disobeyed God. In other words, ‘they didn’t know they were disobeying God, until they disobeyed’. If that is true, then God was unjust to instruct them because, “they had not yet had enough sense to know that it was ‘right’ to obey God, and ‘wrong’ to disobey God”. You don’t give instructions to a new born baby; and then, punish the baby for not adhering to your instructions. It is not done. That would be tantamount to wickedness. And God is not wicked. God is Love. Clearly, there is a misconception or a misinterpretation somewhere. If God instructed Adam and Eve, it is because they had the ability and capacity to obey. And it’s because, they understood what ‘obedience’ and ‘disobedience’ meant.The Hebrew words translated ‘good’ and ‘evil’ are the words ‘towb’ and ‘ra’ respectively. ‘Towb’ and ‘ra’ could also be interpreted as ‘pleasure’ and ‘displeasure’. The tree was a tree of the knowledge of ‘pleasure’ and ‘displeasure’. What kind of ‘pleasure’ and ‘displeasure’?-Sensual-pleasure and Sensual displeasure. It was a tree of the knowledge of carnality.-A tree of Carnal Mindedness. This is why God said, ‘the day you eat of it, you shall die’- For to be carnally minded is death (Romans 8:6)Genesis 3:22 is also misinterpreted or mistranslated. Most version say that God said that since man has become as God, knowing good and evil, let him be sent out of the garden, lest he eats of the tree of life’. But if that was what God said, then satan was right: Eating of the tree did make man as God.- This is to say that God was actually hiding something from man. What I understand by the Holy Spirit that God said is, ‘Since the man who became as one of us, is now carnally minded, let him be driven out of the garden, before he eats of the tree of life and live forever in his sin’. Man was made as God, it was not eating of the tree that made him like God; man was made in the image and likeness of God. So, man was actually seeking to become who he already was.Why was the tree put in the garden in the first place? It was put in the garden because; man was to have dominion over the sensual knowledge; but not to eat of it. This sensual knowledge or carnal mindedness was the knowledge that the animals and plants operated in. It is what we now call ‘common sense’.There was a knowledge that man operated in before the fall. It was this knowledge that made him superior to the laws of nature; rather than subject to it. For example, of the entire living creature on earth, man is the only one that does not have a protective covering over his skin from the weather. Other animals have feathers, wool, or scales etc. Man has nothing. So, how was man surviving to weather changes before the fall? Man was moving with his own atmosphere- the consciousness of the presence of God. – To be spiritually minded is life and peace (Romans 8:6). The consciousness of the Presence of God, caused man to be enraptured in the dazzling light, of the glory of God. So much so, that man was unaware that he was naked. Before the fall, man saw in the spirit realm; heard in the spirit realm, and his mind was set on the things that are above. For his duty was to superimpose the realities in the spirit realm into the physical realm. ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.TO BE CONTD.
