In the bible they replaced the old testament with new testament because their lives were different and times had changed. I was listening to a radio show and they were discussing we need a new testament or commandment because times are way different then back then |

Also, we can ask God for wisdom for applying His commandments etc in our everyday life.

this radio program is missing the point entirely.
of all the points of progressivism worth discussing in the bible, this particular topic is precisely not one of them.
i think you should turn the dial on the radio before idiots rot your mind.
I was just asking a question
but why did they change it |

Do you mean why did they introduce the New Testament?

Besides, it's really not up to us to institute a newer testament, both old and new were instituted by God either through Moses or through His Son, and therefore any updated "Brand new never seen before" testament would have to be instituted by God through His appointed servant. Anything else would be a fraud set up to appeal to the masses. |
