What you see in the Old Testament (Exodus and Leviticus are from the OT) is basically the old Jewish religion. The New Testament is the Christian religion which is one of the reasons why Jesus was born (to reteach and re-clarify some things. The other being to die for the sins of the world). They have many merging areas but there are differences - primarily in rituals and codes of cleanliness which are stricter in the Jewish faith. For example, the Bible says that a Christians body is their temple, and they should take care of it with utmost care. Looking like you haven’t shaved in 60 years isn’t the way that is accomplished. That picture above, is basically mosaic law (old stuff). In the Christian view, a lot of those religious codes you are seeing on that board were replaced when Jesus was born.

The only one from that list that still applies is the cursing one.

This is nothing more than just another anti-Bible/Christian trying to take a dig at it anyway he can. That’s fine. It’s his choice.

Old Testament = Mostly Moses speaking to Jews about how to do things. Pork for example, they didn’t know how to prepare correctly so people were getting sick and dying. That’s why they didn’t eat it.

New Testament = Jesus speaking to the rest of the world and laying out the guidelines.

Regardless, if you are not a Christian, you just wouldn’t get it, but being a Christian IS NOT about rules, religion, or denomination, being a Christian is about your personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and nothing else (are there crazies in the world who’ll tell you otherwise? Yes. Such as the Phelps family. I don’t agree with them). We as Christians aren’t perfect by any means, but we recognize that, and are not here to condemn someone for there beliefs (again, Phelps family) whether they believe or not, or believe in something else. Jesus tells us through out the New Testament that if we don’t believe in Him, then we condemn ourselves.

The choice is up to you and you alone to believe what you want.

Whether you believe any of this is totally up to you. I’m just answering your question.
