How Do We Approach The Old Testament?
from His24-7.com · host Rev. Joel D. McMahon III
“How Should We Approach the Old Testament?” Acts 15:22-29 As Christians, instead of “cherry-picking” verses or as some say, “Taking a supermarket approach,” to support our point of view, it seems to me that we should be doing just the opposite. Instead of grasping The Book, we need to let The Book grasp us. After all, it is God’s Word, and we are endeavoring to live a life pleasing to Him after having repented of our sin and appropriated the death of Jesus on the Cross as payment in full for our transgressions. With Jesus as our Lord, the first place we should look to find out how to live a life that pleases to Him is The Bible. With this in mind, How Should We Approach the Old Testament? How does it fit in? Does it apply at all today?
