I'm not a huge fan of Old Covenant Jewish scripture that God stamped out and replaced with the New Covenant.
It's interesting but also undeniably full of misguided Jewish beliefs about mutilating babies, performing the Pagan bird blood magic of Leviticus 13 and commanding husbands to REMORSELESSLY attack and slaughter their entire family for the crime of not being Jewish (Deuteronomy 13:6-10).
If your "god" compels you to bite off chunks of God's perfect little babies or slice them up with knives, to spray your home with blood and remorselessly butcher your loves ones... then perhaps you're being misled by some sort of fucked-up demon?
I respect Christians who follow Jewish scripture, however I believe God stamped it out for good reason.
Jesus Christ is the One True Path to Salvation whereas the Jewish Torah and the Old Covenant almost certainly leads somewhere very unpleasant.
God wants us all to become Christians.
God's chosen choose Jesus.
Jesus didn't come to take away the Old Testament, but to fulfill it :)
Correct.
And then Jesus permanently fulfilled the Old Covenant and permanently ended those laws. It passed from the law. It was ended.
You may commence with down-voting New Testament scripture or not. It's your choice.
...the Old Testament sets the stage for Jesus' entry.....
Absolutely it did and it should be studied closely.
