What did you think the tree of life was? An apple? It is the exchange of the seed of man to have the ability to create life. That is why they were ashamed, they had engaged in an action perpetrated by Satan.

Who told you THAT?



NIV Genesis 1:26-28
 26.  Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
 27.  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
 28.  God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
 
Uh... it's hard to do this without sexual relations.

NIV Genesis 2:7-9
 7.  the LORD God formed the man  from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
 8.  Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.
 9.  And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground--trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
 

NIV Genesis 2:15-17
 15.  The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
 16.  And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;
 17.  but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."
 
 
Sorry, but they were excluded from only ONE tree before they sinned.  They were free to eat of the life tree.
 
NIV Genesis 3:24
  After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
