2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
First, explain to me what parts of the old covenant became obsolete and what did we keep? There is more than one old covenant as well, Abraham didn't live under the Mosaic covenant.
