1. Blood Represents Life (Leviticus 17:11): For humanity, blood represents the very essence of life that only God can provide. 2. Blood as Ransom: In the Old Testament, blood is often used in sacrifices, particularly as a ransom—a price paid to release someone from bondage or captivity. This co ... ncept aligns with 1 Corinthians 7:23, which emphasizes that we were “bought with a price.” Christ’s blood becomes the ultimate payment, a ransom given to release humanity from the bondage of sin and the authority of Satan. 3. The Fall and Authority of Satan: When Adam sinned, according to Romans 5:12, sin entered the world, and humanity lost its original glory. Adam’s transgression handed over authority to Satan, the prince of this world. The spiritual battle that followed was rooted in this authority shift, where humanity became enslaved to sin and death. 4. Christ’s Sinless Nature: Christ’s coming was unique because He was born not of man’s seed but through the Holy Spirit. This is critical for redemption because if Christ had come through the lineage of Adam, He would have inherited the sin nature that passed down through all of humanity. However, because He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, His blood was pure—blameless and sinless—qualifying Him as the perfect sacrifice to atone for mankind’s sins. 5. Redemption and Regaining Possession: The term redeem means to regain possession, and Christ’s mission was precisely that: to redeem humanity from the dominion of sin and Satan. His sinless blood became the payment that secured our redemption, purchasing us back from the grip of death and Satan’s power. 6. The Role of Satan in Christ’s Death: Although Christ’s death was ordained by God (1 Peter 1:18-20), Satan played a role in the crucifixion. In his deception and manipulation of men, Satan thought he was orchestrating Christ’s downfall. However, in reality, he was fulfilling God’s plan of redemption. The innocent Christ’s death became the basis for Satan’s defeat because in killing a sinless man, Satan overstepped, ultimately condemning himself and undoing his hold on humanity. 7. Innocence and the Consequence of Murder: According to the scriptures, when an innocent man is killed, one who does not deserve judgment or condemnation, his blood cries out to God. When that blood cries, God hears, and whatever the innocent asks of God, it will be done. In the case of Christ, instead of His blood crying out for vengeance for His unjust death, He asked God to forgive and release those who were guilty. This is why our eternal life and salvation are found in the Lord Jesus Christ, who, through His sacrifice, secured our redemption by pleading for mercy rather than judgment. Christ foretold how He would be killed and resurrected in Matthew 12:40, showing that He knew what would happen before it even began. In Matthew 26:36-46, we see that Christ submitted to God’s will, praying for the cup of suffering to pass from Him, but ultimately accepting that His death was part of God’s plan. If it wasn’t God’s will, the Father could have stopped it. In Matthew 17:22-23, Christ again demonstrated His knowledge of the events that would unfold. Later, in Luke 24:25-27, Christ confirmed that everything that happened was written in the scriptures. Isaiah 53:1-5 also prophesied the sufferings and afflictions Christ would endure to bring us salvation. Read more
These Books: Igbo Mediators of Yahweh Culture of Life: volumes I to IV, are the first accurate account of the history of the Igbo from Ancient Egypt as the Dynastic Pharaohs (efere ọha - your worship of the people) to their expulsion in the Exodus. The research was based on genetic, ethnolinguisti ... c, paleo-anthropologic and archeological scientific proof. Each volume of the book builds on the theme of the series, that the Igbo are the Chosen People of God, the true Israelites (Igbo language: ḷ zara Eli - you answered the Most High). The Igbo were the original inhabitants of ancient Egypt (a gọ Ya, a pa atụ, - prays to God and carries out His instructions), and were the Dynastic Pharaohs. The Igbo were the earlier inhabitants of Nubia (Owere dialect Igbo language: anị ibo - the land of the mediators, as priests that mediate between God and humanity for the remission of sin). The Igbo that speak the Owere dialect lived in Nubia or Lower Egypt while those that speak the Ọnịtcha dialect lived in Upper Egypt. The Igbo Egyptians were conquered by the Turkic and ancestors of Arabs, and then enslaved in their own land, as Hebrews (ọha e bu ụrụ ụwa - the people who bear the wickedness of the world). On the way to the Promised Land of Canaan (oke Nna, - the allotment of the Father), they were formally ordained a nation of priests by God and called Igbo (i gbo, meaning ‘mediators or priests’ between God and humanity for the remission of sin). Human origins are traced through matrilineal genes, starting with the Eve gene called superhaplogroup L0. The Igbo have L1 gene Semite gene of Ancient Israelites. The Igbo gene haplogroup is L1 dating 150,000 to 240,000 years. The L2 are genes of the people of Black Southern Sudan, which dates 100,000 to 150,000 years; and L3 dates 70,000 to 100,000 years and comprise all other black people.

12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.
14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.
18 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.
19 And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
20 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21 And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.
22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto Johns baptism.
4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

Is Christ truly the GOD of the Old Testament? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug25VvpWUIo&t=1469s Stay tuned and watch Pastor Gino Jennings and Apostle Michael Orokpo's insights on the Divine nature of Our LORD JESUS CHRIST. This is why our faith in Christ remains unshakable as we continue to ... anchor our belief in 1John 4:2 and 1Timothy 3:16. Christ is referred to as 'the Rock.' This marks the first time God is called such in Scripture. Moses' words convey that the Divine power, greatness, faithfulness, and love, as revealed in Christ and the gospel, provide an unshakeable foundation upon which we can anchor our hopes for happiness. This is found in Deuteronomy 32:3-4 and Deuteronomy 32:18. Notably, Apostle Paul identifies 'the Rock' as Christ in 1 Corinthians 10:4. In essence, Moses is pointing to the Messiah, Christ, as the One whom individuals must personally turn to for eternal salvation. The words of King David in Psalm 18:2 . The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. This passage is self interpreted as a reflection of King David's unwavering trust in the Lord's strength and protection. Furthermore, the reference to Psalm 110:1 and the connection to Christ as "my Lord" in Matthew 22:41-45 shows that God manifested in flesh, reconciling the world to Himself, as described in 2 Corinthians 5:19. There are numerous scriptures that support the belief in Christ's divinity. Please feel free to ask your questions, and kindly allow 1-3 days for a response. May God bless you all as you participate in the revelation of our LORD Jesus Christ. Read more
10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.
12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
13 And, behold, the Lord stood above it, and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;
14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the Lord is in this place; and I knew it not.
17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
2 Peter 3:8-9 emphasizes the nature of God's perspective on time and His patience towards humanity. In verse 8, Peter reminds believers that with the Lord, one day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like one day, highlighting that God's perception of time is vastly different from human pe ... rception. In verse 9, Peter assures that the Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, He is patient, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance. This passage underscores God's infinite patience and His desire for all people to be saved and turn away from sin. Read more

24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

12 When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the Lord, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them.
13 This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the Lord.
14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the Lord.
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the Lord, to make an atonement for your souls.
16 And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the Lord, to make an atonement for your souls.

The origin of the temple tax is found in Exodus 30:11-16 and Ex 38:26 (see also 2 Chronicles 24:9 for a later mention). When Moses was taking the census of the Israelites in the desert, God told him to collect a tax from each male twenty years and older to pay for the construction and upkeep on the ... Tabernacle. The amount to be paid by each person, regardless of wealth or standing, was to be half a shekel. At that time the shekel was not a coin, but was a unit of weight for silver and gold.

After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma temple tax approached Peter and asked, 'Doesn’t your teacher pay the temple tax?' 'Yes, he does,' Peter replied. When Peter came into the house, Jesus spoke first. 'What do you think, Simon?' he asked. 'From wh ... om do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes—from their own children or from others?' 'From others,' Peter answered. 'Then the children are exempt,' Jesus said to him. 'But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.'" — Matthew 17:24-27 Read more
