Don Johnson:
In my understanding, the tree of knowledge OGAE did NOT have seed in it. God in Gen 1:29 said the humans could eat of every tree with seed in its fruit. Ergo, the TOKOGAE did not have seed in its fruit. Seed shows life.

I was thinking about this and had a lightbulb moment.
Some plants can propogate via their roots!
.And Heb 12:15 refers to a “root of bitterness” which “defiles many”
I have personal experience with a “root of bitterness”. It is probably the area where I have had to pray, repent, and fight spiritual warfare more than any other. One of the symptoms of it for me was quite a long term blindness to matters which are becoming clearer now. (Fundamentally, like Beth Moore says in Breaking Free, GOD IS NOT ABUSIVE!)

Another “root” verse to which I aspire:
“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love ” Eph 3:17
I press on toward the goal…

PS. Sorry for the tangent Cheryl… fraid I talk too much on YOUR blog…
