The Way Back to God God created man and woman:  “ So God created man  in His  own  image; in the image of God He created him;  male and female He created them. (Genesis 1.27) He gave them two choices of Life or Death:   “ And the  Lord  God commanded the man, saying, “Of everytree of the garden you may freely eat;  but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”  (Genesis 2.16-17) Due to making the wrong choice by listening to Satan, the man, the woman and all of creation came under the curse of death:  “ T hrough one man sin entered the world, and  death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—“  (Romans 5.12) God, in his mercy, at the same time of putting the creation under the curse, provided also for its  redemption:   “ And I will put enmity  b etween you (Satan) and...

Purpose Very commonly Christians, when they talk about The Old Testament & The New Testament, tend to not really    differentiate between the two,    but see them as equally valid instructions while at the same time saying they are different. My aim is to provide an accurate perspective of what the Old Testament & The New Testament are in relation to each other and how they can  be understood taken together.  Introduction The Holy Bible is divided into two main sections or books: The Old Testament & The New Testament.

1. Question : Can you give money to God?  Answer : No. God wants something different. “"I exhort you, therefore, brothers, in view of God’s mercies, to offer yourselves as a sacrifice, living and set apart for God. This will please him; it is the logical “Temple worship” for you.”" Romans 12.1 2. Question : Why do we keep hearing "You are cursed with a curse" of Malachi 3.9 from the pulpit when people are being requested  to give?   Answer : No one should be reading or citing that scripture as the verse for giving. The verse is no longer true today as we are no longer under the law. "The Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus the Messiah." John 1.17. As well, it is not possible to curse God's people: "I will bless those who bless you, but I will curse anyone who curses you.” Genesis 12.3.  Further, there is no compulsion in giving in the church. "Each should give according to what he has decided in his heart, not grud...
