Many of God’s redeemed and regenerated children are for the most part unaware of His divine intention. It is possible to be very familiar with the Bible yet still miss this central point. God’s eternal intention is to enter into us, His redeemed and regenerated children, in order to be our life. He wants to make us one with Him so that we may live Him.

In God’s Eternal Intention and Satan’s Counterplot Witness Lee compares the opening chapters of Genesis with chapters seven and eight of Romans, showing that the two trees in Genesis 2 have become the two laws in Romans. The two trees represent God’s eternal intention and Satan’s counterplot, and the two laws reveal our subjective experience of these two trees in our daily lives. We all must exercise to live by the tree of life that the law of the Spirit of life can operate to save us from the law of sin and death.
