Don't confuse me with the facts…

… after all these years of being an American, and I still don’t get that phrase… …Must do more cogitation


Now, that's fine. And perhaps you are unable, or perhaps unfortunately unwilling to accept the basic understanding of biblical hermeneutics and its application.

… I will make sure to read the article.


We DO come to understand the O.T. by the N.T., but we cannot overwrite the O.T. with the N.T. We must preserve the historical, social and theological content of what the Holy Spirit inspired and maintain its divine purpose; i.e., the foundation of the N.T. They are reciprocally complimentary.

Overwriting the new with the Old would eliminate the New which explains the Old, which would remain non-explained Just because the Old is now explained, how does that counteract historical, social, and theological context in which it was written?


Therefore, if you insert the name of the Lord Jesus Christ into a Psalm, you are not singing the actual Psalm, but N.T. revelation, which goes to prove my point…

but who else do we have in mind when we read (ex) “Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool..”? David? Literally substituting Jesus in would break this passage’s historical context (in that it was written as a prophesy). OT including Psalms do talk about Jesus, maybe not in literal terms, nevertheless is not what Jesus accomplished in the Gospels is the subject of OT? (Luke 24:27) ”And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.”
…so in light of said

we are to sing ALL the truth of the Scripture which is God's self-revelation and of His great redemption accomplished in The Lord Christ.

if there exists a point of doctrine that is not corroborated in Psalms… I would have to take a really big shoe out of my mouth. Otherwise, spending brain cells making new words which rime about Jesus, we would be engaging, at least, in redundancy (because the words written in psalms corroborated it already).
