Amen, kalos! When we neglect the old testament, we miss out on some extremely important theological insights into God and his gospel. The Pentateuch is rich with statements about God's nature and will for all people. Jesus, as you know, does not abolish the law but fulfills it. He perfects it and gives us life through him. The OT has much to say about how God reconciles people to himself, how he deals with sin, how he views the poor and marginalized, how he cares for Gentiles, what he values in worship, relationships, and much, much more! The people who either neglect the OT all together, or make it into some ancient fortune teller for us today truly miss out on the beauty of the bible that was used by Jesus and the first century Christians. I encourage you to study and teach the Old Testament as much as possible! ischus |

I agree Ischus. I think we can also learn so much from the OT men of faith and how in their obedience they were blessed. Just take Joshua for example!! The OT also is a shadow of the NT and we will actually miss out on a lot in the NT by not studying the OT!! |
