What's the difference between getting knowledge from the word of God,compared to getting knowledge from the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?
I mean what's the difference in the kind of knowledge?
Was Adam told that he would die when he ate that fruit, only because he would be disobeying,or could it also be that the kind of knowledge from it would kill?
So, was biting into the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,containing all the knowledge of the celestial beings, including the fallen ones?
The LORD gave language to man, and allowed him to learn about the world by experience or by passing on that knowledge.However, spiritual knowledge he gives us through the scriptures.
However, how did the celestial beings get their knowledge?
Were they created with all they would ever know?
Or did they increase in knowledge?
Daniel 10:21 But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
I Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
But wasn't evil "learned" by them?
Ezekiel 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Then the LORD said:
Genesis 3:22a And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil:
However, the LORD is omniscient, and knows all things, even thousands of years beforehand, about the good and about the evil.He did not need to partake of that fruit.Who was the fruit for, celestial beings visiting the earth?Clearly it wasn't for Adam and Eve.Wasn't Adam told that he would die, if he ate it?Was that simply because of disobedience,or was it also possibly a warning about a knowledge that would kill, like poison to the soul?Was the fruit only created for the test?Is it gone, now, or does it too continue like the tree of life?Was it also relocated to the 2nd heavens, kind of like the monolith was in 2001 A Space Odessey?
