It is when scriptures from the OT are posted and the first comment that comes behind it is "Well, we are not under the Old Law"

sounds to me like there are those so-called Christians that don't regard the OT one bit.

So are you saying that being a Jew is necessary to being a Christian? Because if you adhere to the Mosaic Law, you are a Jew.

No, I'm saying the OT and the NT are mutually solid information that shouldn't be disregarded.

** and FYI if you are a Bible believer you are a Jew, period. but sadly there are a multitude of those in the world trying to twist scriptures to fit their own personal molds that "claim" they are Christians but not even close. Or worse, they claim to be "Jew-ish" and put the Talmud and Kaballah in the mix as Holy books in an attempt to usurp the teachings in The Holy Bible when they are nothing but books of witchcraft.

THOSE people will have it the worst when Christ returns. Amen.

Will you answer at least one question? Do you tend the garden of Eden all by yourself or do others help you?

Gen 2:15 And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

Are you building an Ark?

Gen 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

The Tanakh [Full Text] | Jewish Virtual Library
Excerpt:
Though the terms "Bible" and "Old Testament" are commonly used by non-Jews to describe Judaism's scriptures, the appropriate term is "Tanach," which is derived as an acronym from the Hebrew letters of its three components: Torah, Nevi'im and Ketuvim.
Yea...No kidding...But the OT is still not the Tanakh...The two are different...

So, He had a Greek name?...He was named Yeshua, because Iesous means nothing in Greek and Jesus means nothing in English, but Yeshua means Ya is Salvation, which is what is in the bible...You can't get "Ya is Salvation" from the breakdown of the Greek or English names when broken down...And He was born a Jew...Do you really think Peter's mother named him Peter?...Or Andrew was named Andrew?...Whatever you're named at birth in the same name where ever you go in the world...It does not change according to the language of the country you are in...My name is Richard and when I went to Spain, guess what my name was?...Richard, not Ricardo, even when written in a Spanish document, it was still Richard...

I see Yeshua as setting the example...
