Why we don't follow the Old Testament.

We don't want to hear about your Jewish man becoming God fairy tales anymore

The NT says this about the OT: “and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:15-17

I have been to the EO church 2 times now and have been experiencing miracles. Thank you, Father, for helping bring me home.

So your R a Marcionite Father?

marcionism lite, is all this is

Impecable! Thank you, dear father.

At best this is worded very poorly, with all respect to Fr Josaiah Trenham

This is just heretical nonsense. "The Old Testament is an indispensable part of Sacred Scripture. Its books are divinely inspired and retain a permanent value, for the Old Covenant has never been revoked." (Catechism of the Catholic Church 121).

God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. The Old Testament is filled with divine wisdom that should be studied. It will broaden your biblical knowledge and give you insight into how Jesus and the Apostles understood God the Father, humanity and His purposes.

The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed The New Testament is the Old Testament revealed

Well said. Christians or non-Christians who say the Old Testament is "jewish" are completely uneducated and Wrong as well, even though modern jews claim it's about them, it's not.

Many religious people cannot stand that God's promises to the Jew remain as such. The above makes so many become apoplectic. Imagine what God's promises are if they can be changed.

@zeeemedia False teaching Matthew 5:17-18 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

Why we dont follow the old testament [law]

This is the first time I have no choice but to disagree wholeheartedly with Father Josiah. If you dismiss the Old Testament then the NT had NO foundations. Also, when NT is vague, refer to OT for clarification. Christ quoted OT! Come on...

It’s impossible to defend “we don’t follow the OT at all”

🙏 "And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself." - Luke 24:27

Sounds like a Jewish psyop to me. God doesn’t change his personality, he is timeless and never changing. The only “proof” of the NT is from the claims of the OT, but if the OT is garbage, then so is the NT.

Someone tell this to the Evangelicals.

@Stefftaving You don't follow the New Testament either.

I understand what he's saying but he probably should have phrased it in a way that doesn't sound vaguely marcionite

Eat your cheese & bacon sandwich you galach & bow down to your getchkes. Uncircumcised swine. The reason you worship a man instead of Hashem is because your false religion indoctrinated you.

god become man? u r mental??? so all ppl went to hell before new testament cuz hey no jesus died for milenias..what a fkn idiotic crap! its solar mythology

@zeeemedia Amen. The end was written in the beginning.

Laws were given to the “Israelites” because they were lawless savages. Christians had laws already – the Roman Empire had a highly advanced legal system – and were given knowledge of God who is Truth. Christianity is a superior religion for sure.

The HolySpirit/RuachHaKodesh was given upon many in the Tanakh 💯 And the HolySpirit was given through Jesus way before your Pentecost claim 💯 You know the Father without knowing the Tanakh first💯 Why are you 🫵🏾 openly deceiving people ❓

“You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!” -Jesus Christ, Mark 7:7-9

Dude even your Church apologists point to the OT temple rituals as why you guys do things the way you do in your churches

There are laws we are meant to live by, the Old Testament contains all of those laws. No wonder people are lost Jesus say in Matthew 5:17 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill."

So the proper way to interpret evolution of god with judgement to grace - is thinking of it as “root” so as not to fall into marcionism (seeing it as a change in gods nature)?

Bro, the New Testament is 100% a product of Jewish culture. It is written in a dialect of Greek known as Koine Judeo-Greek. It is Aggadic Jewish literature. It is pre-Talmudic style Midrashic Literature, and it contains more 1st Century Jewish history than any other book in existence. It's a Jewish book filled with more old testament quotes than any other book. So, yes you do.

Stories for a completely different level of baseline consciousness. That all changed with Jesus.

If everything in the OT is about Jesus Christ then why not follow it? Why even include anything in the OT in a Bible then?
