ermm.. The old testament is the old testament. It's not christianity. Christ didnt want christians, as the term is used, really. And that has nothing to do with the point, receiving the spirit, getting to Samadhi etc, etc. You're not approaching the text correctly in context with experience, and well, er, it's not the way forward. The Old Testament being glued to the New testament is as irrational as the book of Acts onwards being glued to the gospels. and the gospels in themselves contradict. You'll get nowhere with all that. The point is the Spirit. Everything else is cuddly metaphor, the intellectualising based on experience. Which essentially can never be correct,as I said, you cant verbalise this stuff. There is no common message accross ppl in spirit. Paul proved this, and the many branches of the evangelical movement also prove this. buddhism has the same problem, they're just not as divisive. Schools of Judaism and Islam can however be more divisive. It's not the point.
