Does Old Testament shadow work in New Testament Reality?

[jonahmano]

It is very well known in Christian theology that Old Testament is a shadow and the New Testament is reality but my question is that if it is right or fitting with the Word of God to adopt old testament concepts into New Testament?

Examples:

1. A pastor preaches about his church compound - Whenever I visit this place, I feel the presence of God and that's why I don't want to pollute with this place with any noise rather than Praise and Worship music. So I play every time praise and worship music 24 hours in the campus when there is no prayer service going on. This is something similar to Abrahams and Jacobs building altars when they experienced the presence of the Lord at some places.

2. A famous Christian Television channel is building a revival prayer centre and they are placing few stones in the church building brought from Israel, painting it with limestone and writing the names of God on it just as it is in the scriptures of old testament.

I don't see why it wouldn't be okay, except of course in those instances where they are specifically mentioned as being modified or abrogated.

Yeshua had no troubles with Yhwh's Word , the Tanakh, which was recognized at Yhwh's Word by the Jews young and old, scholar and infant, male and female, rich and poor.
Yhwh's Word doesn't change, according to Yeshua, even unto the end of the Age (until time is no more might be ).

Yeshua did openly expose the 'traditions of man' that the religious started and built upon contrary to Yhwh's Word.

They got mad at Him for that, of course; just as 'they' get mad at (us) if we hold to truth and don't accept man's traditions that are contrary to Yhwh's Word.

If someone is seeking the Kingdom of Heaven , like a little child seeking to learn from his daddy, and uses what they learn in Scripture to serve ABBA,
then I don't see a problem with that. We are all learning (and unlearning what was taught us for so long).

If someone gets and holds to the Truth at all costs to themselves, even unto death, Father is pleased and welcomes them unto Himself.

If someone/we get and hold on to something incorrectly, Father will correct them/us if they/we are willing to be corrected.

He disciplines His children as a Good Father. (trains, teaches, reveals truth, helps, edifies, strengthens, chastises, rebukes, heals)....

Without discipline, correction, guidance, revelation from God, we are not His children. (Hebrews 1 - 13 )
