Both the Old and the New Testaments are the basis of Christianity. The Old Testament or old covenant set the laws that God wants everyone to obey. The New Testament is the new covenant. To keep this short, Jesus is the new covenant and with Him, Gentiles (non Jewish people) are also children of God and fall under His grace. Grace meaning that God knows that man sins and is not perfect. But with Jesus dieing on the cross, He was willing to suffer and forgive us for all of our sins. We no longer must make animal sacrifices through the priests because Jesus was the greatest sacrifice for us. Now with God's grace we can also be like Him and He will take us up into Heaven if we believe that Jesus is Lord and Savior. We still must obey all of God's commandments of the Old Testament but now the new covenant is based on love not animal sacrifice. It is obeying God out of love and not because it is law. There is much more but this is the abridged version.
