 Good morning. Because Adam might eat of the tree of life and live forever… Therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken (remember that the ground had been cursed). So He drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden, He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life. Whatever happened to the garden of Eden and the tree of life? As for the tree of life, we will see it again at the end of Revelation. Notice that from this point in time on to the end of the book of Genesis, it never once says that Adam asked forgiveness of God, even though he lived to be 930 years old. If he had asked forgiveness, perhaps what follows would not have happened. Father thank You that even though Adam was never allowed to eat from the tree of life, we are allowed to eat from it.
