Revelation 22:2 “In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”
“In the midst of the street of it,”
In the middle of the street of pure gold in this new heaven new earth.
“and on either side of the river,”
There’s this river of life too, then on both side of the river,
“was there the tree of life,”
There’s multiple tree of life, that’s why it can go on either side of the river. It’s not singular.
“which bare twelve manner of fruits,”
It’s giving 12 different kinds of fruits.
“and yielded her fruit every month:”
It’s giving fruit every month.
“and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”
The leaves of this tree is provided to heal Gentile nations.
Notice that this tree of life is supposed to bear 12 manner of different fruits and it’s done at every season, or every month. This tree is reserved for the nations. Remember these Gentile nations here, when they receive this tree of life, it’s divided into 12. Remember in Revelation 21, the Gentile nations are divided into 12 because as they enter into the New Jerusalem, it has 12 gates and each Gentile nation is going to go inside their designated gates.
As they are divided off into 12 gates separately for 12 divisions of nations, this fruit coincidentally is divided into 12 as well. It’s because it is designated according to the Gentile nations in their division of 12.
The book of Ezekial says that this tree of life is designated according to the months.
Ezekial 47:12 “And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.”
‘according to his months’ How many months are there in a year? 12.
Revelation 22 says that there are 12 manners of fruits. So each fruit comes out for each designated month here and these are reserved for Gentiles.
Satanic astrologers are trying to imitate what God is doing with people’s births and years. The devil is way ahead, he knows when he talks about these astrology stuff. There are 12 zodiacs in astrology and they go by their birthday. Remember from our previous Revelation study that the Gentile nations are living in the 12 houses of zodiac according to the number of the 12 tribes of Israel. Satan knows that it’s connected to people’s birthdays here.
So what happens over here is that the Gentile nations get a fruit according to the 12 months, based on the birthday that they were born or they were living under, that’s when they can come to partake in the tree of life and eat it where they get healing.
Notice that the title of the tree, tree of life, is a giveaway. That’s why we know it’s going according to the person’s birth or life. Life is used simultaneously with birth. ‘The baby is born’ or ‘The baby is alive’. Thoes words are synonymous with each other. The tree of life is connected to somebody’s life and birth. The purpose of the tree of life is to keep giving them life.
Healing of the nations
The last part of Revelation 22:2, it’s for the healing of the nations. Ezekiel 47:12 the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
People are born on their birthdays according to their month. All of this is done for a reason, we could have done without it, why do we have to put a birthday according to months and why divide it by 12? The Lord designed it that way.
The calender, our birthdays, are all according to the stars in the universe out there.
Genesis 1:14 “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:”
In the book of Deutronomy, He divided it for the Gentiles according to divisions of the number of the children of Israel. That’s why Revelation 21 says there are 12 gates that the nations will enter into and the 12 gates are the 12 numbers of the tribes of Israel, fulfilling the book of Deutronomy.
So then, why is it that they have to keep partaking in the tree of life? Remember in Revelation 20, the people during the Millennium, they can die. The Bible never said that their bodies are immortal, instead they get longevity. That’s the reason why these people have to keep going to the tree of life so that they can keep on living. That’s how their bodies are made to be whereas Christian church, we have the body of Jesus Christ. That’s why our bodies are made differently from the tribulation saints and millennial saints. Their bodies are going to be conditioned upon partaking in that tree of life so that they can keep on living. The tree of life was given all the way back to Adam and Eve when they were male and female. So the tribulation saints bodies are like Adam and Eve, male and female, where they can partake in the tree of life. The Christian church bodies are not going to be like Adam and Eve, our bodies are going to be like the body of Jesus Christ Himself. There’s a difference here.
