Should we disregard the old testament?

By From A Friend at 05/29/08 13:01

For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were writen for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. Romans15:3-4.

But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Galatians3:23-24.

Besides that are'nt there some wonderful stories. Blessed be the Word of the L ord.

The Cross

If you believe that Jesus died for you on the cross it does'nt end there, for he was raised for our justification.

Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him [Abraham]

But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

And not only so, but we glory in tribulation also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; Romans4:23-25 5:1-3

Faith

To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.Acts26:18

If faith is in Christ then no man can boast, for it is a gift.Praise be unto God!

Assurance unto all

Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained ; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. Acts17:29-31

Faith

And His name through faith in His name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know; yea, the faith which is by Him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. Repent ACTS:3:16

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God;

Not of works, lest any man should boast. EPHESIANS 2:8-9
