The life of the flesh is in the blood’ (Lev. 17:11, 14, NKJ). ‘The blood is the life’ (Deut. 12:23, NKJ). This is what we can read in the Old Testament.

To enter into life we must accept and act upon the words of Christ with living faith, repenting of sins and turning to God in order to receive forgiveness and the gift of the Holy Spirit, as Jesus promised (John 14:15-17; 26). ‘If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,’ Paul wrote, ‘he does not belong to Christ’ (Rom. 8:9) … ‘those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God’ (v14, NIV).
I am respectfully asking you not to respond, I do not feel like continuing to read your comments that are meant in a mean-spirited way and disrespectfully as well. I can't be any clearer than that.
John 10:30/ Phil 2:5
Christ is not equal with God
John 14:28/ Matt 24:36
The bible is full of contradictions
