?..I get tired or your endless ramblings with no scriptural proof at all on ANYTHING...
PS I've provided scriptural reference and rational on page 18 and several times after that, most recently to robbie carrobie who rather than acknowledging his error of missing it, just dismissed it.

Only two reasons I don't answer you as quickly as you prefer. One is I get tired or your endless ramblings with no scriptural proof at all on ANYTHING and some of us do actually have jobs that we have to actually work at.....
It seems if I don't drop everything and run to your endless whinning you get really uptight about it. What's up with that?

hear that? its the sound of wind blowing over a region of tundra carrying your empty words away to some distant place where they shall drop silently to the ground and be trampled upon by grazing Yaks.
Lemonlime has your stance to a T, superficial and devoid.

As for Glavestons statement it makes perfect sense. If the Garden was literal and the trees in it were also literal and we have no reason to doubt that they were not, then it makes perfect sense to anyone willing to employ a little discernment that when the great flood came it would of had a devastating effect on the environment and thus may very well have uprooted the original garden. The fact that this is not directly revealed in scripture is neither here nor there, its simply an attempt to reason on what we do know. The garden existed, the flood came and the garden is now gone, how hard can it actually be? Its far more likely than the hotch potch of gobbledygook that you cobbled together with string and Elastoplast in your logically ludicrous effort to claim that the garden was literal but the trees in it were not. bwahahah.

Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. And there will no longer be any night; and they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever.
And he said to me, “These words are faithful and true”; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place.
“And behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds the words of the prophecy of this book.”
I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. But he *said to me, “Do not do that. I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who heed the words of this book. Worship God.”
(Revelation 22:1-9 NASB)

So Noah had it on the on the Ark did he...did he keep it in a grow bag? What happened to it after that and where is it now?
This is getting better and better.

Originally posted by divegeesterI did not mean that Noah dug the tree up and placed it in the ark. I was just speculating that God could have saved the tree by taking it up to heaven like He did with Enoch, Elijah, and Jesus.

However, the tree in Revelation could be an entirely different Tree of Life. In that case, the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden could have been uprooted and destroyed with the worldwide flood.

Originally posted by RJHindsSo rather than accept that the tree of life is a symbol of Christ as documented in the book called the Revelation of Jesus Christ, you would rather speculate that either:

- The tree of life is actually dead.
- The tree of life was rescued by god himself and was whisked up to heaven. Presumably the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is there too- or are you being treeist in this scenario?
- There are 2 trees of life. Presumably you are one of those who believes there are also 2 Alphas and omegas also.
