Bible Question: i have several associates make the comments lately that the old testiment does not apply to our lives of today. is this so? |
Bible Answer: Hi, BSC; I dunno about that. Jesus taught from the OT and quoted it often. If it was good enough for him, it's just fine for me. Besides, while the NT is about Jesus, the OT is about God the Father and his chosen people (Jesus' earthly family). So are your associates saying that they can ignore the Bible Jesus used or are they saying they don't need to know the Father better? The OT is a treasure trove for anyone who will sincerely dig there. Just my two cents' worth. Peace and grace Steve aka Indiana Jones |
