Did You Know? I did not!

I started a blog on Hell is a Hoot because there’s so many versions. More on that after this short blog because I was so astonished by what I read, as I was reading and writing about hell.

Note Genesis 2:15 says, "The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.” 
Okay. We all know verse 17 by heart and wonder why those idiots ate from the tree of knowledge, but how many of us ever ask ourselves about verse 16, the other tree. Who cares about all that knowledge when we have eternal life to learn everything there is to know?
Once they were kicked out of the garden, they are now denied access to the "tree of life", which they had access to before, and now they will die. Of course, most Christians or Bible readers erroneously assume because the tree of knowledge was forbidden so was the tree of life. At least I did. I’ve never heard a preacher even preach on it.
Read the text above again. The two idiots were told NOT to eat from the tree of knowledge. Until they screwed up, they had eternal life - a gift only God can give and he gave us in the beginning. Now of course, we have to go the extra mile and accept Yeshu'a into our lives. Not that it’s a big deal but just imagine all the drama we could have bypassed if Eve first then Adam had not eaten from the darned tree.
