Isn't the point that Jesus, Peter and Paul, Matthew and John, and numerous others in the New Testament, frequently quote from the Old Testament? If that is a fact then how can a true Christian ignore the teachings of the OT. Aren't the two tomes similar to part one and part two, or original and sequel?
Also, as to my above question, how does a Christian who uses the ten commandments suggest that the OT is not applicable any longer?
Contradictions?
