From Apples and Oranges
Did you ever think that apples and oranges could lead you to Christ? There is a secret to all of this. The “apple” represents the Garden of Eden and the “orange,” well, I’ll have to let you in on this a little later in the story.
Well the garden was spectacular, flowers and trees and animals of every kind with an abundance of God’s special treasures. He had prepared a home for all of His creatures, but especially for His own kind, the ones who were created in His own image, humans, men, and women and children who would eventually populate the universe. It was paradise, and God was in control.
There was one stipulation; and that was never to eat from the Tree of Knowledge because that Tree was so bad that if you ate just one fruit from it, you were certainly going to die. There was no doubt about it and God knew it. And He said to a woman and man, do not eat that fruit but eat only the fruit that He prepared for His children because it was so good, there was always an abundance of it
