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.
Why did Jesus turn the water to wine (besides the fact the people had ran out) and why was it his first miracle?
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?
Do fathers have the ultimate decision in their daughters marriage?
I was praying one day, praying something like this: Dear Lord, I promise I will not carry out this sinful act at least for this week, and if I shall do so, take away my salvation. Sad to say I broke my promise. Please keep in mind that I voluntarily asked the Lord to remove my salvation. Will the Lord agree to such a statement of me asking Him to take away my salvation in the case of me breaking my promise?
