Which Tree Is Yours: Life or Knowledge? by Servant Marcia Carty on Nov. 24, 2025

Servant Marcia Carty delivers a critical message examining the age-old battle between righteousness (the path of the Tree of Life) and self-serving ambition (the path of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil). The message begins by tracing mankind's fall back to the choice in Eden, connecting it directly to the rampant wickedness and angelic disobedience that necessitated the flood in the days of Noah. She highlights the contrast between the givers like Abel and the getters like Cain, whose lineage embodied warfare and self-absorption. This "get" mentality, which ignores the hurt of others for personal pleasure, is identified as the core danger today. The message serves as a stark warning: The earth is rapidly returning to the chaotic, violent, and hybridized state of Noah's day. -- The choice between the two trees—Life (giving) and Knowledge of Good and Evil (getting)—is what determines your eternal destiny. -- The pre-flood world experienced a massive population explosion, rapid technological advancement, and long lifespans, but descended into extreme wickedness, warfare, and violence. -- The days of Noah included the creation of a hybrid race (the Nephilim) from the union of disobedient angelic beings ("sons of God") and human women ("daughters of men"), which was a primary cause for the flood. -- The wickedness of Noah's day—eating, drinking, marrying, and perverse actions—continued right up to the moment of judgment, demonstrating that a wicked nature is hard to stop. -- Righteousness, which is pursued by those who choose the Tree of Life, involves practice, justice, enduring suffering, character, and fleeing youthful passions. -- The prophecy interpreted by Daniel for King Nebuchadnezzar about the end-of-days mixture (iron, clay, brass, silver, and gold) suggests that the mixture of humanity and angelic seed will occur again as the end-time prophecy of "as it were in the days of Noah" unfolds.
