The Old Testament was not replaced by the New Testament. However, the old covenant was indeed replaced by the covenant when it was fulfilled by Jesus Christ. If we follow Jesus, we follow the new law. But the Old Testament is still very much a part of the story of Jesus Christ. We sure do get confused.

Sad that folks believe it. There is a new site on the way that seems to have a related focus - http://myhebraicroots.com. She will be offering educational books about Hebraic roots and Biblical Festivals, etc. “Sure, Jesus said that he came not to abolish, but to fulfill, but what he really meant by fulfill was “to replace completely with something that has no relation or roots whatsoever in Judaism.””

I think we forget how much God loves us and we just ignore the OT,and until recently, as of one month, I rarely read it. I do keep the Sat. Sabbath, and now that I understand the other parts of the Biblical Holidays, I am jazzed about it. Why doesn't eveyone see this? Spiritual darkness is very scary, but God is quick to give us Light if we are seekers of His truth. God bless your searchings...and your work, it lead me to a deeper truth of God's word. Very funny.

We've been working our way through the Old Testament with our kids for the past couple of years. We're not even close to being finished! I read a study that said that kids are taught the same 25-30 bible stories in church, and they reach adulthood not actually knowing much of the bible. I realized that I know very little of the OT, so that's a big part of why we're studying it. What we've discovered is that it really illuminates our beliefs as Christians when we see the origins of our faith. The kids have been fascinated by it, too. I really enjoyed your post on this.
