I have never gotten a consistent answer on this subject. There are 3 main answers I've heard:

1. Yes
2. No
3. Where Jesus contradicts the Old Testament, a Christian should follow his teachings. Where he doesn't say anything, a Christian should follow the Old Testament.

So what's the deal? Did the new covenant Jesus struck with God nullify the old covenant and with it all the teachings from the Old Testament?
The way I learned it was yes, Christ trumped everything in the OT.


To jmfcst, is there anything in the OT that current Christians are supposed to follow that isn't also mentioned in the NT?
