"In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup." -The Holy Bible (1 Corinthians 11:25-28)

"33: So then, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another" -The Holy Bible (1 Corinthians 11:33)

"and like living stones be yourselves built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ." -The Holy Bible (1 Peter 2:5)

Hello -

I find your choice of verses very interesting. Yes I believe in the verses and further that they clearly show how the blood covenant both new and old relates to us all.

My personal choice though is to use an AMP Bible when discussing covenant.

I have a copy of the Bible, and yes you are right, these verses are in there, the old book, if you look really close. But let's remember here, two things. Number one: This book was composed and written by men in the ages way, way back when, before radios, computers, telephones, toilets, tampons, condoms, etc. etc. so maybe it was meaningful in their time, a few thousand of years ago, A couple of hundred years from now, we, and I mean everyone on earth, will be dead, and only our children and grandchildren will be carrying on, and maybe you are right, maybe one of his or her brothers will bring a gift. What will the sister do? And what would happen if my great grand daugher was at the throne instead of the 'Bibles' HE? And don't even say my grand daughter isn't as good as the He, cause then you will start a war you'll never forget. We don't want to piss her off. Your last one makes no sense at all, because it's asking a question, not stating an event. So You are full of the stuff Jesus did after he ate, like all us humans do, usually once a day. Wake up dummy, read what you print, and live what you say. Otherwise leave people like me alone. I look at life the way life is, when you are alive, you are Alive, when you die, then you Die. so simple, so uncomplicated. Ron Couch

If it's in The Holy Bible, I believe it. Maybe you should talk to a pastor, or someone else knowledgeable that can explain it to you. If you believe in the Holy Bible, you need to believe entirely.

Yes

yes.
the first is being true in your heart,
the second is your deeds being recognized by God due to your sacrifice
and the third is these first two things happening because of our belief and relationship with YHVH and the Master Yeshua Messiah.
Nice weave.
