Why The Blood? (1-2)

To the modern mind, the Bible’s emphasis on blood can seem strange—perhaps even primitive or barbaric. Why would a loving, peaceful God require the slaughter of animals? Why was blood necessary for forgiveness? Why did God allow His own Son to die a violent death, shedding His blood for mankind? Beneath these questions lies a mystery that transcends both biology and ritual: blood is more than fluid—it is life itself. And Scripture reveals it is a spiritual key between the physical and invisible realms.
