The Old Testament was replaced by the New testament/Covenant. While it has much that is very useful, it is no longer in effect.

31"Behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them," declares the LORD.…

The Old Testament should not be ignored, but if it is to be considered the current "Law of the Land", then Jesus need not have walked the Earth and died for our sins. The prophets need not have prophesied, and we should all be held accountable for being deserving of Salvation by our own merits. Can't have it both ways.

So G_D is double minded and you really can't trust much of HIS word? Oh I see we have a buffet of Bible versus and a take a little from here and a little from there and now I feel good about me. Jesus makes me feel so warm and fussy and his daddy makes me sad with all those rules. The cooperate church of America is lost.
