This is where Lee’s “Life” doctrine came from:

Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

If you do a word search, it’s interesting that the “tree of knowledge” appears in the Bible only twice. And at that, in these two verses, it doesn’t say “God doesn’t care” for “good and evil” or “right and wrong” (which the Lee teaching morphed into). Gen. 2:9 acknowledges the existence of the tree of knowledge and in Gen. 2:17 it says not to eat of the tree of “knowledge of good and evil.”

As noted, Trapped, there is overwhelming accounts of doing just that: defining good and evil; of God’s view of good and evil, more importantly, the implications of good and evil in humanity. Lee teaching is another “bury your head in the sand” teaching regarding good and evil in order to manipulate the faithful into blind obedience to the doctrines of Lee. The Bible is pretty clear about what is good and evil, but where is “life” defined in the Bible? How does that compare with “Life” in the Book of Lee? “Life” is whatever Lee said it was, or, “Life” is “Lee”.

Here’s a pretty good verse about good and evil:
Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
