    Many make the mistake of thinking that all the things in the Old Testament no longer apply to our modern age.

    Even some preachers in their sermon preparation choose to preach out of the New Testament, because they feel that the New Testament is more applicable to today’s congregations. While much of the Old Testament did deal with Israel and the ceremonial laws that were given to them, a great deal of ...read more
