EAST OF EDEN

“Then the Lord God said, “See, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever” therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken. He drove out the man; at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim, and a sword flaming and turning to guard the way to the tree of life.” (The Book of Genesis 3)

We are East of Eden anytime we are not in Eden properly and obediently. The entire recovery of mankind is to take us from East to back to the Center of Eden…back to the presence and fellowship of the Father. The real issue is not Eden, east or center, but being brought back in the presence and fellowship of the Father. The Father is anxiously waiting for us to hook up again together in Eden. We are even offered again the blessing of The Tree of Life (See The Revelation of Jesus Christ 2:17, 22:2, 22:14 and 22:19) It’s our move.

“So he set off and went to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion; he ran and put his arms around him and kissed him.” (The Lost Son) Jesus
