a post on the use of the Old Testament

This post speaks of the need to approach the Old Testament on its own grounds as a true and valuable witness to Jesus, the Christ.  I've thought a fair bit about that topic over the last several years, and I think our relative neglect of the OT is a great detriment.  Here are a couple snippets to encourage you to read the post yourself.

There is no overt discrimination against the OT, just a lack of deep engagement with it as meaningful, relevant revelation in its own right.
We don't have to make the ancient Hebrew Scriptures Christian—they already are!
