Dear Immanuelsown, Interesting point. I think you're saying that some of Scripture is more pertinent to us at different points in our lives than are others. However, I'd posit that it would be best to know them both, rather than neglect either (Mark 12:24). Although we appropriately use the NT to shed light on the OT, we do well to keep in mind what Christ said (reaffirming the words of Moses in Deuteronomy 8:4) that man lives by EVERY word of God (Matthew 4:4; Luke 4:4). "ALL Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16-17 ESV, my emphasis) In Him, Doc |
