The testimony of Shinchonji Church of Jesus regarding the tree of life
and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil
(Main reference: Gn 2:7-9)
Topic, Shinchonji’s correct testimony)
[Correct Testimony]
What is the reality of the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?
To illustrate this visually, there are two trees. The first tree is the tree that has been born of God’s seed of life and the other tree, by Satan’s seed of death. There are also branches, fruits, and birds.
God said if one eats the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, one will surely die (Gn 2:17) and if one eats the fruit of the tree of life, one will live forever (Gn 3:22). What is the reality of these trees?
The seed is the word of God and the tree is a person who received the word
In Proverbs 3:18 the tree of life is not a plant but a person who has received wisdom. In Isaiah 5, the vine refers to the people of Israel (Is 5:1-7).
In Adam’s tabernacle, the Garden of Eden, there were two trees. In Matthew 13, two types of seeds are sown in one field (Mt 13:24-30, 37). This small seed grows to be a big tree, and the bird comes to perch on its branches (Mt 13:31-32).
These two trees begin with the seed. The seed is the word of God (Lk 8:11). The seed of God is the word of life and the seed of Satan is the word of death.
If one plants the seed of life in the field of the heart, then a tree of life will grow. If one plants the seed of death in that field, then the tree of death will grow. On the tree of life, fruits of life will bear and on the tree of death, fruits of death will bear. This is the natural order of the seed and the tree.
Two types of seeds and two types of trees
Jesus who is heaven (Mt 13:24, 37) called himself the true vine in John 15, and said his disciples were the branches that bear fruit (Jn 15:1-5). The holy spirit like a dove came down upon Jesus (Mt 3:16, 13:32).
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, who represents Satan, was the huge tree. On that tree there were branches that bore fruit and on the branches birds came down upon it. There were also animals that dwelled under the tree (Dn 4:20-22). Two types of seeds were sown in Jesus’ field, which represents Jesus’ churches; and thus two types of trees will grow.
The good seed represents the sons of the kingdom and the weeds represents
the sons of the evil one
God’s seed was sown through Jesus and the devil’s seed was sown through the pastors of that time, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law. According to the seeds that were sown, the good seed became the sons of God’s kingdom and the weeds became the sons of Satan’s hell (Mt 13:38).
The reality of the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil
The following is the conclusion of the reality of the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden.
At the time of the first coming, Jesus was the reality of the tree of life. The reality of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil were the snakes, the Pharisees. At the time of the second coming, the reality of the tree of life is the 12 tribes of Shinchonji Church of Jesus (Rv 22:1-2), and the reality of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil are the destroyers who entered the tabernacle of the chosen people of heaven in Revelation chapter 13 who destroyed the tabernacle. They are the pastors who are like the beast with seven heads and ten horns of spiritual Babylon who forced the people to drink the wine of adultery (poison of serpents) in Revelation chapter 17-18.
One must discern well with the Word because there are trees born of two types of seeds
in Jesus’ churches today
Just like how there were two trees in one location, in the Garden of Eden, today in Jesus’ churches, there are trees produced by two types of seeds in one and the same field.
One is the tree of life that has been born through God’s seed and the other is the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that has been born through the seed of Satan. The tree of life represents the pastor who belongs to God and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil represents the pastors who belong to Satan.
