The Christian bible has two parts: The old testament and the new testament. Christians believe that when Jesus came and died for our sins, he said that the old testament did not matter any longer.

Apart from Christianity, you could say that all other religions do not accept the New Testament. (The religion that accepts the Old Testament, or Hebrew Bible, but not the New Testament, is Judaism.) It is also worth noting that Islam rejects the New Testament as written, but does not reject the spiritual nature of the events it describes. Islam holds the New Testament to be a corrupted form of Jesus's Ministry, something that is very important in Islam.
