Subject: Which one are we not going to keep? |
Bible Note: But then, how do you explain or reconcile Col 2:14 into this position? If the OT was good to go, why do we have the NT? What about all those animal sacrifices and the Levitcal Priesthood? You can't observe and practice Judiasm and Christianity both, can you? If so, how's it done? How come Hebrews puts the superiority of Christianity so far over that of Judiasm? I'm afraid your position has quite a few problems with it. In contrast, I must admit your citation of verses from Matthew is quite powerful until one remembers that Christ may have been speaking figuratively. I'm thinking when the Romans came in 70 AD and totally destroyed everything, including the temple and all the records of their geneology, it really was like the Lord's destroying their world. It's like as if God was saying "I'm done with you people as a nation. You won't be taking advantage of my love any longer." Anyway, that's how I've reconciled this seeming conflict. What do you think? Blessings to you, dear friend. Country Girl |
