However, after <a href=\"https:\/\/churchofgod.wiki\/en\/Adam\">Adam<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/churchofgod.wiki\/en\/Eve\">Eve<\/a> ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and sinned, God blocked sinners\u2019 access to the tree of life, and the history of death began (Ge 2\u20133). General Pastor Kim explained, \u201cThe reason humankind did not know the <a href=\"https:\/\/watvmedia.org\/en\/media\/tree-of-life-secret\">secret of the tree of life<\/a> for such a long time is that only God could open that way again.\u201d He then explained the meaning of the Passover, saying, \u201cThe Passover is the truth through which we participate in the flesh and blood of Jesus, the reality of the tree of life, receive eternal life, become God\u2019s children, and escape the last disasters\u201d (Mt 13:34\u201335; Jn 6:49\u201354; Mt 26:17\u201328; Lk 22:7\u201320; 1 Co 11:20\u201326).

If we follow God uprightly, we too will participate in the glorious resurrection in the future.\u201d He also emphasized, \u201cEven at the moment when the members who had witnessed the suffering of the cross fell into despair, God was preparing the hopeful news of resurrection for them.
