I believe that to many Christians get mixed up by going to the old testament when in fact they should stick with the new. Jesus teaches us that we can not mix the new with the old. One can gain salvation with the new testament only and defend one's faith by the new testament.

It's when one starts going between the two that confusion sets in, and of course the devil really enjoys it when this happens. Now please, I believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, however, we need to know how to use His word properly.

Example; The Sabbath was never give to the Gentile. It was given to the Jews only.Now interestingly, When Jesus appeared after His resurrection, each time it was on the first day of the week, which is Sunday. Just a little food for thought. Out of the 23 sins mentioned in the new testament, not one mentions the Sabbath.

The Old Testament is needed for the New Testament to make sense. Without the Old Testament we wouldn't understand the need for or purpose of Christ or who He is, It explains the fall of man and why we need to have our sins atoned for, It tells how the way for the coming of Christ was paved, the history of God's people and how He constantly provides for and protects and loves them, and SO much more!
The New Testament is the summation of the Old Testament- just because we are no longer held under the covenant of the Old Testament doesn't make it any less significant.

I agree that we need the Old Test to understand the New Test and to understand God's plan of redemption and dealings with mankind.
I remember a saying that the Old is in the New revealed and the New is in the Old concealed.
