He also forbid eternal life.

Curious what your textual support for that view is, and how it relates to
"whosoever believeth in Him..."

Genesis 2:17 in the original IIRC (sorry, don't have my Pentateuch at hand)
but redacted out in the Christian version. However Genesis 3:22, 23 and 24
make YHWH's intent clear. Seems to me that, if A&E were forbidden to know
good from evil, and got booted out of Eden to keep them from getting eternal
life then any church that dispenses the forbidden knowledge and offers
eternal life can only be a tool of the devil, ... if you believe in devils.
