IS THE BIBLE RELEVANT?
Is the Old Testament for Christians today? Are there parts of the Old Testament that can speak into our lives? Is the Mosaic Law for us today? Or not? Are the Psalms and Proverbs for the church today? What Prophetic messages are relevant for the church and what are not? Who decides what applies and what does not?
Because we Protestant Christians tend to pick and choose what Old Testament scriptures we want and which we don’t want, which speak to us and which don’t, we have confused the next generation of believers. Many of our children are now picking and choosing what they want to accept or reject from the New Testament, as well.
We are under a new covenant. The New Testament outlines this covenant, like it or not. But there is life in the old covenant as well. Let’s get serious with our understanding of God’s word.
How do you view the Old Testament?
