Okay, I found the Two Trees video and I'm two minutes into it and thinking WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP. Really. Sorry but he has twisted Lee's words completely. He says that Lee taught that man should only eat of the Tree of Life but that's not at all what he taught. Lee never denied the other trees were for eating. I fear you'll force me to go back to a Life-Study and prove my point but I KNOW he never thought nor taught that.

Further, the narrator says Lee taught that the Tree of Life was alone in the center of the garden. Did he teach that? I don't recall. But I am very doubtful Lee didn't know there is a verse -- spoken by Eve, btw, -- that states the tree of knowledge was in the "midst" of the garden.

This is actually a point I have long cherished. They both were there, perhaps side by side. Perhaps the tree of life, a vine-tree according to Lee's thought in Revelation, actually climbed upon the Tree of Knowledge. We can all speculate. At any rate, I'm not 100% positive we can be sure that the Tree of Knowledge was in fact in the center of the garden since it was Eve, not God, who said it. And perhaps her "center" had already been adjusted.
