Old Testicle, New Testicle, what's the diff?  One's a ridiculous, guilt-ridden pack of fairy tales believed in by delusional Jews, the other, an absurd, parochial, mindless collection of magic tricks and superstition bought into by retarded hypocrites who call themselves Christians.  It's all the same project of cluelessness and childish faith in myths, fables and fantasma.  You're better off believing The Lord of the Rings or Batman.

No. The New Testament is a continuation of the Old Testament and the fulfillment of all the prophecies foretold by the early prophets. There can be no New without the Old, and the New cannot make sense without the Old. They are both the written Word of God and the Bible must be taken as a whole.

The Old Testament still serves a purpose. Through out the Old Testament we learn of man turning his back on God. King after King lead their nations astray after God forgave them. Man offered sacrifices to God for their sin. In the New Testament Jesus died and paid the ultimate sacrifice. Now we are under Grace, not under the law.

An eye for an eye and turn the other cheek seem to be concepts that clash. While the Old and New Testament both require a belief in God and faith in Him, their messages can be very different. I feel the forgiving nature of the New Testament supplants the Old Testament to some extent for those who truly consider themselves Christians.

I see it this way. We are still judged by the Law and found wanting (Old Testement), but we are set free by grace through faith expressed in works that Christ Himself was example to through His life, death, and resurrection (New Testement). That line of thought leads me to one conclusion, that both parts of the Bible are exactly that, pieces of a whole best studied together to learn what God would have us do. :)

The New Testament is the new covenant between God and Man. If you know your Bible then you will see most of the rules and standards are in the Old Testament are in the New Testament. I believe that the New Testament fulfils allot of the prophecies said of old, but brings salvation to a new level, to everyone!!! The Old Testament is as important and as valid as the New. We however need to stand by what the New Testament say's as it is Gods final plan for Man and Women alike!

wonderful answer!

Jesus said He did'nt come to change one jot or tittle of the law, but, He came so it might be fulfilled. The only thing that changed is that we do not offer blood sacrifice any more. That's because He became our sacrifice. I don't care how many lambs without blemish you can come up with. They'll never match the perfection of Christ's holy blood shed on the cross.

No, I think they are supposed to complement each other, though I have always preferred the New Testament.

Yes and no. Yes because we are not under the Jewish Law (or law of Moses) anymore. Because in Hebrews, it talks about the old law being obsolete ie the old ceremonies, sacrificing, observing special days, the formulated giving laws eg tithing, the types of punishments eg putting an adulterer to death. But on the whole, a big no. The words of the OT as Jesus said, will not disappear until all things have been fulfilled. The OT is a great part of the Bible. It tells us the history and the fact that Jesus was who He said He was, plus it has timeless praise and wisdom and displays of God's power, love and goodness. Plus the OT shows us that we are not good enough to please God without Jesus. Plus the Old Testament hasn't been supplanted because of the fact that Jesus said that the man (preacher) will take old treasures as well as new treasures out of his store house. Plus before the Apostles wrote the letters, that's what the churches were taught by - the OT. They only had the Gospels and the OT in the days of Apostle Paul. So early Christians were taught from the OT. But now, the Apostles have summed up the OT laws in their letters and given us a description of what the OT actually meant and their place in now days. The place of the OT is still to teach, rebuke, counsel, encourage, teach people how to live and praise God. Paul even told us to speak in Psalms to one another. But at the same time, the Apostles also put the balance in by reminding us that we are no longer under condemnation or the Old Covenant law and we are free.
