On my night table for last read of the evening is a book with the title, Forbidden Knowledge. It concerns a topic that I'd never considered as such: whether there are, or ought to be, built-in limits to what we as human beings should seek to know.Aristotle said,“All men by nature desire to know.”Read this episode on my blog HEREConfessions of a Young Philosopher Available Now!

Isn't it interesting that, even after Eve and Adam ate the fruit in order to know everything, we find that we still don't know much: Why do "bad" things happen to good people? Why do people get old and die? Why do we get sick? Why does my … Read more
At the Tree of Life, you embrace the Cross and the work of the Cross, as the only cure for the flesh. At the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you subject yourself to rules and regulations and to self imposed codes of conduct in order to develop in you a self humility rather than letting the Holy Spirit work it in you and through you, which is why you need the Holy Spirit.

Bern has not only been a born-again believer for nearly the past 40 years, but also dedicated 31 years of his life to the study and clinical practice of medicine and surgery in the fields of psychiatry and brain surgery. He has held medical school professorships in psychiatry and neurosurgery and worked in private practice in both areas. Bern has an immense background in understanding the physical body, as well as the soul - the mind, will, and emotions - not only from a medical standpoint but also from a spiritual standpoint. With his background and training, he has been led by the Holy Spirit to teach "the Deep Things of God" (1 Cor. 2:10) with an emphasis on Spiritual Warfare (Jer. 51:20), Breaking Generations' Curses (Ex. 20:5; Lev. 26:40-44), walking in the Power of the Holy Spirit (John 14:12; 1 Cor. 4:20; Luke 17:21) and "the Restoration of All Things" (Acts 3:21). We at Word of Faith Ministries International-Miami hope and pray that these teachings of the Holy Spirit through Bern will edify and regenerate your spirit to gain a deeper understanding of God's Word and His truths so you can have a deeper and more intimate relationship with Him. May God bless you all!!
This may sound like an oversimplification, but I'm going to say it anyway: God is intentional. He always knows what He is doing and what it will eventually lead to. While this knowledge should serve as a great comfort to us, it can, because of our limited and imperfect minds, have the exact opposite effect. We may see things in the Bible that on the surface just don't seem to click. We start wondering, why would God do it THAT way? It doesn't make any sense! Take the two trees mentioned in the creation account. Both the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil were placed in close proximity to each other. They were both in the center of the garden. Why two trees? Why have one there to eat from daily and the other there to avoid?

Let's explore the first soul, the one that vitalizes our body and is clothed within our blood. It originates from the klipah and sitra achara, the realm of unholiness, and is made of the four evil elements that give rise to our negative qualities and character traits. Surprisingly, this soul is also the source for the natural Jewish traits of kindness and compassion. This is because it stems from the "glowing klipah" –– kelipat nogah –– which contains both good and evil, flowing from the esoteric tree of knowledge of good and evil. The distinct inclination of the Jewish animal soul towards altruistic goodness is unique to them. On the other hand, the natural soul of most people from other nations originates from the three completely impure kelipot, which obscure any trace of goodness. Consequently, the kindness they exhibit is driven by self-serving motives.

Ah, brace yourselves, folks—it's time for another mystical tree-hugging session where we pretend that ancient fairy tales hold the secrets to the universe. In this episode, we embark on a whimsical romp through the Garden of Eden, where we'll dissect the famed foliage that has somehow captivated human imagination for eons. Spoiler alert: the forbidden fruit wasn't an apple, but who cares, because none of it actually happened.We'll meander through scholarly debates that probably have more to do with academic tenure than actual truth, Jewish myths that add even more layers to the story (because the original wasn't convoluted enough), and Christian symbolism that makes trees more important than the paper they're printed on. Don't miss our profound musings on "The Fountain," a film that, much like religious scripture, leaves viewers either in awe or utterly baffled.Prepare for an auditory hallucination where we confuse knowledge with a dietary choice, life with gardening, and good and evil with agricultural expertise. By the end, you'll either feel enlightened or realize you've just wasted an hour that you'll never get back. Tune in as we dig our roots into the imaginary groves of spiritual botany and discover why we're still talking about Adam's infamous snack.Join us on DISCORD: https://discord.gg/8RwwMrb5zKSkip the ads by joining Acast+ https://plus.acast.com/s/6331d364470c7900137bb57dThank you for stopping by Sacrilegious Discourse - Bible Study for Atheists!Check out these links for more information about our podcast and merchandise:Our Homepage: https://sacrilegiousdiscourse.com/ Join Acast+ to enjoy our podcast adfree! https://plus.acast.com/s/sacrilegiousiscourse.

Chichester Chats Ep #25: Daredevil - Tree of Knowledge Welcome back to the Chichester Chats! In each episode Phil and Lilith chat with writer D.G. Chichester about one of his comic book creations. This time the group discusses Daredevil: Tree of Knowledge from Daredevil #326-#332 (March-September 1994) in preparation for next month's NEW Daredevil: Black Armor miniseries. Tree of Knowledge features a story that Todd Krieger of Wired Magazine described as: "Tree of Knowledge" has everything from a maniacal villain at play in a citywide MUD to a down-on-her-luck actress trying to avoid a fledgling erotica outfit that is trading in cyberporn. It's worth the purchase price just for the spectacle of Captain America philosophizing about the Clipper Chip at an after hours wetware rave.

This is part 5 of the Early Church History class. Have you heard of the Gnostics before? Gnostics of different types claimed to have secret knowledge of humanity's true origins and destiny. They were intellectuals who combined the philosophical thinking of their day with Jewish and Christian scripture to produce a compelling alternative to biblical Christianity in the second century. In today's episode you'll learn what the Gnostics believed, mostly from their book, The Secret Revelation of John. Next we'll see briefly how Valentinus adapted the Gnostic myth and recruited Christians to join his secret meetings. Although this material is esoteric and somewhat difficult to grasp, I'm convinced a working knowledge of Gnosticism is necessary to understand theological and christological development in the third and fourth centuries (especially in Alexandria).

Read his bio here —— Notes —— The Gnostic Myth According to The Secret Revelation of John1 – the Monad (SRevJohn 4.1-4, 10-11, 28, 30, 34)– initial emanations of aeons in the pleroma (5.13-17, 20, 23; 6.1-3, 7- 10, 12-14, 18-20, 23, 25)– Christ's unique origin and creation of the All (7.1-6, 8-10, 19, 22, 29-30; see also John 1.1-5 in the Bible)– Sophia's rogue reproduction (10.1) and repentance (14.22)– Yaldabaoth generates his own aeons (12.11-12; 14.2)– Yaldabaoth and his aeons create Adam (15.12-15, 19; 17.64; 18.7, 18; 19.12-13)– paradise as a prison and the trees of life and knowledge (20.1, 6, 22; 21.16, 20, 26-31)– Cain, Abel, and Seth (22.16-21, 32-33) Afterlife Possibilities – souls who flees from evil “will be admitted into the repose of the aeons” (SRevJohn 23.24)– souls who are ignorant goes to Yaldabaoth's authorities who “cast it into prison and they consort with it until it awakens from the forgetfulness and receives knowledge” (SRevJohn 23.29-30)– souls who understood but turned away will be tortured “and they will be punished with an eternal punishment” (SRevJohn 23.40) David Brakke: “David Brakke “The myth, then, emphasizes the transcendence of the ultimate God and the corresponding unfolding of God into lower, mediating divine principles, the lowest of which does the work of creating the material universe. These ideas are not unique to Gnostics; rather, they are at home in the discourse of Middle Platonism… These thinkers looked for guidance on the world's origin to Plato's dialogueTimaeus, in which a divine being called “the craftsman” (demiurge) creates the visible universe as a copy of the eternal forms. The craftsman creates lower gods, who then assist him, and the universe that he creates and in which we live is the best possible image of the perfect spiritual world.”2 Life of Christ – Christ comes to awaken people from sleep (SRevJohn 26.22)– Christ did not experience Jesus' crucifixion (Second Treatise of the Great Seth 55.30-56.32)– Birger A. Pearson: “[T]he sufferings endured at the crucifixion were notsuffered by the real Jesus, but only by the physical body which he inhabited, the creation of the archons, whose crucifixion brought about the archon's own destruction…For him, the divine Nous-Christ descended into the human Jesus and displaced his human soul…and, following Jesus' crucifixion, ascended to the Father who had sent him.”3 Valentinus (100-175) – born in Egypt, educated in Alexandria– streamlined version of gnostic myth with Christ in a more central role Valentinians – some more docetic than others– more positive view of the world– three kinds of people: (1) spiritual, (2) psychic, (3) material– used scripture to defend their views, claiming a deeper understanding (see 1 Corinthians 2.6-13)– lasted until 7th century Review– Gnostics believed in a story of spiritual creation and rebellion prior to the creation of matter.– These spiritual aeons emanated out from the original, maximally great, unknowable monad.– They thought our world was fallen not due to human sin, but due to rebellion among the aeons.– The Sethian Gnostics emphasized the seed of Seth as the chosen ones who are indwelt with the spark of the divine.– Understanding knowledge (gnosis) of your origins is how you can experience enlightenment (salvation)– The Gnostic movements were hugely popular and second-century Christians considered them a major threat.– Valentinus streamlined Gnosticism and assigned Christ a more significant role.– Valentinians attended regular church services, but then recruited members to join their meetings to gain esoteric knowledge of hidden meaning within scripture.
Last episode, Rabbi Fohrman promised that the Tree of Life isn't left behind in Eden, never to be seen again once we're exiled from the Garden. The tree actually returns! In this episode, we find out where and when – and begin to see how the tree's return impacts the larger narrative of the entire Torah.To read more about An Exodus You Almost Passed Over, Rabbi's Fohrman's book mentioned in this episode, click here.

Last episode, Rabbi Fohrman introduced a provocative new theory that re-envisioned the Garden of Eden, and began resolving all the puzzles raised in Episode One. But this theory has a fatal flaw – it seems to flatly contradict one verse, Genesis 3:22. Can Rabbi Fohrman reconcile the evidence or are we back to square one? What did you think of this episode?

Last episode left us scratching our heads over those two strange trees in the Garden. In this episode, Rabbi Fohrman begins answering our questions on the beginning of the Torah through the help of a clue found all the way at the Torah's very end – and in the process, develops a single, paradigm shifting theory that re-envisions the simple layout of the Garden itself.
