Subject: Does the OT apply to us as christians? |
Bible Note: Rowdy, you might be confusing the OT with the cermonial laws imposed after the apostasy of the golden calf (circumscision, feast days, animal sacrifice, etc.); otherwise, I can't make sense of your assertion that the OT lacks "authority" over us as Christians. 1) Could you please explain (succinctly) what you mean by "authority"? Nearly one-half of all Paul's OT citations are in Romans, and nearly one-half of these deployed authoritatively in Romans 9-11. 2) Can you imagine Paul agreeing with you about the "authority" of the OT? 3) Have you read the OT completely, by the way?
