Things Learned from LGBTQ+ Discussions

And remember, God is not a liar. He called the trees by what they were. Eat the tree of life - get life. Eat the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - get the knowledge of good and evil ("....they've become like us, knowing good and evil..."). For there to be poison in the tree means God would have called it "the tree of deadly poison", otherwise we are saying that He named the trees in a tricking way. But that's not what they got when they ate the tree. They got what God said - the knowledge of good and evil.

It was a sin to eat the tree. Death is the punishment for sin. So they got death as punishment (".....let us cut him off from the tree of life lest they eat and live forever...")

This is a major shift from Lee's teaching, but it's a critical one as far as I'm concerned. I'm actually directly looking to change your mind on this one.
