Isaiah 60:13 shows God using trees to beautify his sanctuary — trees are not inherently pagan symbols

Stop Twisting Jeremiah 10 Because It's Not About Christmas Trees 00:13:56 – 00:15:30

Addressing the secondary worry: is having trees in a home spiritually problematic in any form?

Isaiah 60:13 says 'The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress, the plane tree, and the pine, to beautify the place of my sanctuary.' God himself plans to use trees to decorate his sanctuary. This eliminates the idea that trees as decorative objects are inherently pagan or forbidden. Trees do not carry inherent spiritual symbolism — they are what you make of them.
