Easter 2016 reflections: the tree of life by ric Gustafson
The first tree was in the Garden of Eden. God told them not to eat from it. God wanted to test their loyalty and trust. Adam and Eve could not resist the fruit on it. They disobeyed God and ate from it.
The most important tree is a crude wooden cross. This cross was cut from a sturdy tree. Because of Jesus hanging from that cross, we have life. The cross stands for love and salvation. God's only Son suffered a horrible death on that cross. It is the tree of life for us. Matthew 27: 27-35.
Praise God.
