OLD VS NEW TESTAMENT ON MARRIAGE, DIVORCE, AND REMARRIAGE   1. Marriage is God’s design, not a human invention Key Scriptures: Genesis 2:18, 24 “It is not good that the man should be alone…” “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” → Marriage originates in creation, before law or nationhood. Proverbs 18:22 “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.” Proverbs 19:14 “A prudent wife is from the LORD.” ✅ Marriage is portrayed as God‑given, not culturally invented. 2.

  History of Braided Hair and Jewellery in the Bible IS BRAIDING HAIR AND WEARING JEWELRY A SIN? In Bible times, braided hair and jewellery were common and were often worn as signs of beauty, honour, and wealth.

In the first-century Roman world, elaborate hairs...

The History of Meat  Consumption The history of meat consumption in the Bible follows a distinct trajectory: beginning with a plant-based ideal, transitioning into a regulated sacrificial system, and finally moving toward a "liberty-first" approach in the New Testament. 1. The Edenic Ideal (Creation) According to Genesis 1:29 , humanity was originally given a vegetarian diet. God provided "every seed-bearing plant" and "every tree that has fruit with seed in it" for food. At this stage, there was no recorded death of animals for human consumption. 2. The Post-Flood Permission The shift to meat-eating occurs after the Great Flood. In Genesis 9:3 , God gives Noah a new mandate: "Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything." However, a strict boundary was set: humans were forbidden from eating meat that still had the "lifeblood" in it, establishing the sanctit...
