Introduction
God had two notable trees in the Garden of Eden: the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and the tree of life. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil was the downfall of Adam and Eve. Their disobedience brought sin into the world and each of our lives. Humans were barred from the tree of life in the garden, but now we hear of it again. This new tree of life is only possible because of the tree of Calvary, through which new life is given to each one who believes in Jesus.
​
Ever since Adam sinned, humans have been dealing with the effects of the curse. The only reason we can experience life free from the curse is that Jesus has taken the curse for us (cf. Gal 3:13-14). He took the full wrath of God and the punishment we had earned. Through His death, He paid the penalty for sin. We no longer have to pay that debt, and we will one day be completely free from sin and the curse. Without His atoning work, we would have experienced the curse for eternity. If you are a Christian, take a moment to thank Him for His amazing grace! (Bible Expositor and Illuminator, Union Gospel Press, Spring Quarter 2025).
