My question is, why do people call the Bible the Word of God when it is clearly a name given to Jesus? If you read the Bible believing that the Bible is the Word of God it gives you a very different message from reading it with the understanding that Jesus being the Word of God.
Describe how people were saved in the Old Testament after the law was given?
1 Samuel 15:22 - What kind of sacrifice pleases God? What does He reject?
Would you explain the difference in the Old Covenant and the New Covenant? I have been reading in Jeremiah 31:31-34 and need a clearer understanding of all of it.
I understand the Bible says that God requires a blood sacrifice (Hebrews 9:22). I have heard preachers say that if Jesus had not shed any blood, then his death would not have been a valid sacrifice. Why does God require a blood sacrifice? I know 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?
