Any Tree of the Garden: Learning to Master Our Freedom to Sin

By Nathan Hicks

In this book, I point out that Adam and Eve were free to eat from any tree of the Garden of Eden, including the forbidden tree. Freedom isn't really freedom if there aren't options, choices. Every human being born into this world since "the Fall" of the human race in Genesis 3 has been born in the likeness of our fallen most ancient ancestors. We are born sinners without a choice to not be sinners-regardless of how our inborn sinful nature has manifested in our lives. Once we are born again children of God, having accepted the Atoning Sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the Cross, making us Righteous before God, we now have a new nature, new options, new freedom. The born again believer is more free than Adam and Eve had begun. God through Christ has set us free from sin, not free to sin. And yet... even after we have come to Salvation there seems to be more options to sin and ways to fall short of the Glory of God than Adam and Eve could have dreamed.In Any Tree of the Garden I discuss what the Bible means by our "flesh," "soul," and "spirit." I discuss our responsibilities as children of God still living in a fallen world, contending with the fallen nature within our flesh. I discuss why sin matters, and why it does not. I break down temptation and other ways the enemy harasses us-even spending a little time discussing the enemy himself, who is NOT the threat to you he wants you to believe him to be. I will draw your focus from the defeated pathetic desperate enemy to your identity in Christ, because of Christ, and to much of what is True and what is available to you as a result.Sin and even satan himself are no match for the child of God armed with the knowledge of who you are in Christ No matter what your struggles have been, you can and will master your freedom to sin
