The Bible should ONLY contain the OT (Only Testament)

In the service of Y-H-W-H,
Eliyahu, light unto the nations
"Hear Israel, Y-H-W-H is our God, Y-H-W-H is ONE!" Deut 6:4
"All the peoples walk each in the name of his god, but as for us; we will walk in the name of Y-H-W-H our God forever and ever!" Micah 4:5

Re: Why keep the Old?
My take on it - the Old Testament isn't just rules. There is Genesis (which Jesus doesn't throw out)
Bs'd
Does JC throw anything out? This is what JC says about the Torah:
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
Matt 5
So JC doesn't throw anything out. It is the Christians who follow Paul and not JC, who throw the whole law of God overboard, and replace it with paganism.

Re: Old Commandment replaced? Love Self First?
Bs'd
Jesus, it seems to me, quoted OT more than anyone in the NT. Of course, all the other NT writers quoted it extensively, too. The point only being that they *fit* scriptures into gospel. (i.e., 1COR 15.3)
JC and the NT abuse the Tanach, rip it out of context, mistranslate it, en use it for purposes it was never intended for.
For instance: 1 Cor 15:3; " For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,"
And nowhere in the Tanach is it written that the messiah must die for our sins.
The NT feeds us fairy tales.
