I asked my sister over lunch what she thought and her answer off the top of her head was NO! They didn't eat from the tree of life. And I actually DO understand why Curtis believes it. It isn't far out there. In fact it is possible. But I don't think so...I mean if the Lord told me I could eat of the tree of lfe it would be my first pick even if I didn't understand what i meant. Regular trees..vs. a special one...I'm thinking they headed toward that one. but I am reasoning
I believe the tree of knowledge represents the law ...( nothing wrong with the law but it can't make a man holy) and the tree of life represents grace which gives us life. I believe grace is a PERSON ...Jesus Christ. I don't believe you can lose your salvation so I get what Curtis is saying.
