The tendency of Old Testament Jews was to give God their leftovers. Our tendency is the same. What should we give God?
A feast was made and many were bidden, but when they would not come the servant was sent to the streets, highways and the hedges. If you have accepted the invitation then you should be acting as the servant to bring in others.
We know that Christ loved and continues to love us. But do we know how important it is that we love Him? The Bible states in no uncertain terms that if God is our Father, then we will love Christ (John 8:42).
We have heard it taught and preached on many times that Jesus Christ is to be preeminent in our lives, but according to the Bible the preeminence of Christ has nothing to do with you.
The Bible says that God requires a blood sacrifice. Some preachers say that if Jesus had not shed any blood, then His death would not have been a valid sacrifice. The question is why does God require a blood sacrifice--the life of the flesh is in the blood (you can not live without blood), but you can die without bleeding. What is the significance of the blood sacrifice?”
