"THE LEAVES OF THE TREES SERVE
FOR THE HEALING OF THE NATIONS."

"Then he showed me the river of the water of life, sparkling like crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the city's street. On either side of the river stood a tree of life, which yields twelve crops of fruit, one for each month of the year; the leaves of the trees serve for the healing of the nations. Every accursed thing shall disappear." (Rev 22:1-3 NEB).

"The river of the water of life... flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb" is the free gift of the Spirit of God to those who have come through the "great tribulation" and whose spirits ("robes") they have washed clean, sanctified by the ransom sacrifice of the "blood of the Lamb". (7:9-17). They are given free access to the "tree of life" because they are "thirsty" for the Spirit of God and have proven willing to accept Spirit instruction by the "water of life" from His throne. (22:17 NEB). That is why they are written in the "the Lamb's scroll of life" and have authority to go to the "tree of life", and may ultimately gain entrance to the heavenly "City" by the grace of Almighty God. (21:27. 22:14).

The "leaves" of the "tree of life" are Spirit corrective teachings written down on pages ("leaves") for the healing of the spirits and lives of the nations. The Christ Michael is the "Lamb" of God through whom these Spirit corrective teachings are issued each of the twelve months of the year. Being the new "scrolls" of Revelation 20:12, the "Little Scroll" contains some of these "leaves" of the "trees" for the healing of the spirits of the nations toward their ultimate destiny of incorruptible heavenly spirit life. (10:8-11. 22:2 & 14).

These "trees" are also described as "big trees of righteousness" and are anointed heavenly temple slaves of God administering His Spirit communications to mankind on earth. (Isaiah 61:3). They are the "faithful and discreet slave" appointed over all the "belongings" of The Christ Michael to feed his "domestics" on earth "their food at the proper time" in the form of "twelve crops of fruit, one for each month of the year". (Matt 24:45 47. Zech 14:8).

But not only does the scripture state that the "leaves of the trees" are to serve for the "healing of the nations", but it goes on to state that, "Every accursed thing shall disappear." (22:3 NEB). It means the abolition of physical curses, maladies and afflictions. By this means our Lord God Jehovah will gradually bring to an end the causes of mourning, outcry, pain and death, just as it is written:

"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had vanished, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. I heard a loud voice proclaiming from the throne: 'Now at last God has His dwelling among men! He will dwell among them and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes; there shall be an end to death, and to mourning and crying and pain; for the old order has passed away!'
Then He who sat on the throne said, 'Behold! I am making all things new!' (And He said to me, 'Write this down; for these words are trustworthy and true. Indeed, they are already fulfilled.') 'I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. A draught from the water-springs will be My free gift to the thirsty. All this is the victor's heritage; and I will be his God and he shall be My son.'" (21:1-7 NEB).
