I\'ve been reading my friend Frank Viola\'s giant new book called There Must Be More, a Titan\'s Collectible. If it\'s still available, you should get it. But reading this book triggered a memory for me of something I learned from Frank about the two trees.
In the beginning there were two trees, The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and the Tree of Life.
The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is the serpent\'s promise. He promised, \\u201cYou will be like God, and you will decide for yourself what is good.\\u201d This is what Jesus referred to when He was talking about the \\u201cleaven\\u201d of the Pharisees.
Jesus is the Tree of Life (see John 15) this is the forgotten tree. This is the one we don\'t talk about. When we choose the forgotten tree, we take the life of God into ourselves.
The Pharisees, meanwhile, ate from the first tree, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and so do many or most modern churches. These are the people with the protest signs, with the signs about the groups that they hate, with the signs about how America is being punished for its sins, because they are only conscious of the knowledge of good and evil. Better that we eat from the Tree of Life, Jesus.
There\'s a term that\'s applied to Christians quite often. People say we are \\u201cPeople of the Book.\\u201d We are not. We are not a people of the Book. We are a people of the Person. And the Person is He whose birth we celebrate today, on the day this show is being released, Jesus Christ. He is the Tree of Life.
We must begin living under the forgotten tree (the Tree of Life) rather than eating the fruit of the forbidden one.
Merry Christmas!
My Tip of the Week is the HabitShare app. This is an amazing free habit-tracking app that I was turned on to by my friend Cliff Ravenscraft, and I was sold on it immediately.
This is a cool habit-tracking app because it allows you to share habits that you\'re trying to form with friends, so you get extra motivation and accountability.
It\'s very simple to use. You can set prompts to help you remember to do your new habits, you can create custom habits that fit your specific goals, and you can make them daily or weekly.
If privacy is a concern, you can control which of your habits your friends see and which ones they can\'t.
I love this app and I recommend you check it out. They\'ve got it both for the Apple platform and for Android, so anybody can use it.
