The old testament is still legitimate. Some people tend to throw old testament out because it's obsolete or some other reason possibly. I prefer to call it the original testament. Maybe read Hebrews to get a more balanced view. Great question, I may not have answered it properly. But this is my worthless 2 cents.

I take it to mean that he came to fulfill what was written and that the old testament and laws are fulfilled. If you don't think that then I will say grab a dove and head off for a sin offering. Yes rex, Jesus fulfilled the law. He did it by living a perfect sinless life . He also fulfilled most prophecy. I would think that the final throne judgment has not yet been fulfilled. Jesus is the final sacrifice. For all sin.

You also have to remember that the old testament was written for the jewish people not the gentiles a lot of faiths like to stir it together making it a great mystery and guess what you need someone to explain to stand and tell you how wrong you are.But think for just one sec, GOD is your father would he tell you something and then make it so hard you couldn't understand ? A little prayer and faith and there it is. I agree with you again sir, The new covenant is the complete work of God. Till the fulness of the Gentiles. The faith of Christ and the faith in Chist is spiritual Israel. That's why Jesus said it is finished.

The entire old testament points directly to and at Jesus. He fulfilled it and it's promise as for told. The law is still the law but he raised the bar on that. Under the old law you had to commit adultery to sin. Jesus raised that to if you have lust in your heart you have already sin. Providence I believe Jesus was correcting there misunderstanding of the law. I believe in there heart of heart the men of the old testament knew when thy lusted that they where sinning. The low never changed. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Hmm. I do not read the Bible ( have tried) but the verbiage lost me. I don't go to church either. Haven't for 30plus years. My opinion is...., the vast majority of those that go to church do it for no other reason then to let others SEE they go to church. One of my best friends can quote most every Bible verse yet goes every Sunday. Why?, why should he go and let someone try and " interpit" what he has already comprehended by reading the written word? The 10 commandments are what we need to know and follow. Black n White. Churches have become nothing much more then a social gathering when as soon as its over,, the " Flock" goes about their daily life while judging others after they contributed $$ to the " cause". I don't need to know the History of the the Bible. I try to follow the 10 Commandments and feel God will sort it out in the end. Don't care if I get a special place in Heaven. Am happy knowing I'll be the water boy when I get their.

It's all about the blood; from Genesis to Revelation.
God killed the animals in Eden to cloth Adam and Eve after they sinned. This had to be a shock to both Adam and Eve cause they knew those animals and had at the time never seen killing IMO, at that time, they may have even been able to communicate and speak with the animals.
When God killed the animals in the garden to cloth Adam and Eve, he was teaching them a very, very, important lesson at the time IMO. That lesson was that only by the shedding of innocent blood, would they be covered for their sins. We are in the same predicament.
The entire Book of Exodus screams the Gospels. Jesus Christ is in every verse in Exodus if one looks. Only by His innocent blood are we covered from our sins. Its that simple.

I think when it says "Till the fullness of the Gentiles comes in.....that it means the Jewish people won't wake up to the facts of the Blood of Jesus UNTIL all gentiles get right. That means for us Christians, grab and scream at your buddies that are on the fenceline, cause Christ ain't coming back till they get on board. I 100% disagree that faith in Christ is spiritual Israel. Jesus said it was finished because He was the sacrifice for all mankind; His blood was enough.

If we are the hands and feet of Christ, it would be rather difficult to organize a job for the body to do if the hand never meets with the feet.

You don't have to follow the levitical laws but Jesus quoted quite a few verses from the old testament. Plus Danny Clifton likes the story of Samson and King Solomon. Those are some of my favorite Bible characters as well. Sorry I didn't read all of the comments on this thread yet. Plus I have a friend who became a Christian because of the song of Solomon. Too many goodies in the old testament to say it's only for the Jews makes me very sad and I have to say I disagree.

Here is the word Gentile is Hebrew. Are you saying all Gentiles will get it right? Then all Jews? That would be all of mankind. Like I said I don't want to miss quote you. I would like to believe that all would be saved.

I take it that in Paul's day, the Jews thought there were two different people.....Jews and then everyone else. Everyone else was considered a gentile.
Since Christ, all mankind has an opportunity of salvation through His blood. It is a gift though; not a mandate. IMO, God knows the names and numbers of every single person that will be in His Kingdom; both Jew and gentile. Once all the gentiles that are on the list find Christ; then all the Jews that are on the list will wake up and realize that Jesus is their Messiah. Not everyone both Jew and gentile will accept the gift of salvation.
