Why is the tree of life important for Christians?

Answered in 2 sources

The tree of life represents access to Christ, who restores eternal life and healing for believers.

In Revelation 22:2, the tree of life is depicted as yielding fruit every month and its leaves as healing for the nations. This imagery highlights how Christ, symbolized by the tree, provides continuous sustenance and healing to all who believe in Him. The tree of life in the new heaven and earth signifies believers' restored relationship with God through Christ's sacrificial death, which allowed unhindered access to eternal life. Believers are reminded that this healing comes only through Jesus, who was wounded for our transgressions and offers perfect restoration.
