I hav e realised that when muslims want to hit back at christians that they always use stories from the old testament. Dident these foolish muslims know that hristians dont even follow the o/t. christians follow only jesus and the new testament.
as a christian myself i say to muslims that you can keep the old testament as its just as brutal as your koran.
we follow only jesus and not moses or noah. agree?

How rude ... calling Muslims Foolish ... when u are the one who should be called so ...
How come that a Christian like you doesn't know her own religion ...
My childhood friend ... and my best friend also is Christian ... and she told me that Christians believe in both the old and new testament ...
As he said "i came to continue" or something like that ...
And he came as the prophecy of the old testament said ...
And actually I wanted to ask a solid Christian as yourself ... which version of the bible do you follow ???...
At least Quran all over the world is only one version ... no adding and no edits ... no versions ...
I hear that some Christian follow a version when some others follow another .... so where is the source of your beliefs ???... just wondering

I absolutely do not agree. If Christians only follow the Old Testament, then why do they spend so much time quoting it? I'm sure there are Christian sects that claim to only follow the New Testament, but they are fringe groups. The vast majority of Protestants and Catholics view the Old Testament as the word of God, and as an integral part of their religion, just as most Muslims do. I really think it would be a good idea for you to research your ideas before presenting them here, in the form of statements masquerading as a question. Maybe stopping the Muslim bashing, and taking a non-biased look at your own religion and culture, would be a healthy thing to try?

The Quran and the Bible, Old or New Testament, are both only as instructive as those who translated them. Both the Old and the New Testament have some mistranslations, though probably more are in the New Testament than the Old, so brutality aside, I suppose it depends on your faith and your point of view. To read the New Testament without the connections in the Old does not really fit into the standards of Christianity, however.

You are a Liar. True christians who follow God in holliness, follow the Whole bible, old and new. So if you just follow the new testament, then you are lukewarm. Either you are in all the way or out all the way
JAMES 2:10
10) for whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all
So if you are just following the new testament then you are not complete with God. You cannot have the new without the old, and you cannot have the old without the new. The bible is ONE book and is not to be seperated. Listen
Deuteronomy 4:2
2) Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall you diminish aught from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord thy God which I command you.
Now read revelation 22:18,19

The New Testament was all about Jesus fulfilling prophecy of the Old Testament... from the line of David, arrive sin Jerusalem on a white Donkey, would be betrayed.... throw that away and Jesus is no longer the Messiah.... Without The Old testament which God do you believe in? Not the God the disciples prayed to anyway.

I am Muslim, and CHRISTIANS ARE SUPOSSED TO FOLLOW THE OLD & NEW TESTAMENT BECAUSE THAT IS THE
BIBLE. If you dont beleive in the Old Testament, then you dont believe in the 10 commandments, Moses, King David, and all the books that make up the Bible. Muslims are only "hitting you" with the truth.

NO. I'm a Christian, and believe firmly in the inspiration and inerrancy of all of the Scripture (all 66 books of the Old Testament and New Testament).

The old testament is, Jesus Christ concealed. The new testament is , Jesus Christ revealed. The apostle Paul said "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." 2 Timothy 3:16

Jesus never discarded the old testament. He came to earth to fulfill the old testament.
