1. We thought that God created man because He was lonely. However, from eternity, the Father and the Son lived happily and lovingly in a full relationship. On Earth—the most important place for God— He placed man, who was created in His image and likeness, with spirit and soul (Proverbs 8:30-31; Genesis 2:7).
2. God placed the tree of life in the center of the Garden of Eden. When man ate of its fruit, God would continually accompany him through the river of the water of life, placing divine elements within him. In this way, all of us, though so different from one another, would become one in Him. However, the serpent acted first and ruined everything. But God did not give up on His plan (Genesis 2:9-10; 3:1).
3. God raised up Abraham and made him a great nation, a shadow of the reality He had planned. The seed of Abraham is Christ, who would come later. When Christ came, God brought His plan to fruition. On the day of Pentecost, the church was born of the Holy Spirit. The disciples realized that the life they received by believing in Jesus had entered each of them like rivers of living water (Gal 3:16; Acts 2:3-4; John 7:38-39).
4. “We must first disentangle ourselves, disconnect ourselves from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, freeing ourselves from the power that sin exerts over natural man. The secret to getting out of this situation has already been revealed: ‘[…] “I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.” (Romans 7:25). (Daily Food, Book 7, Week 4, Monday, pp. 57-58).
