Christians consider the NT an organic growth from the OT. Jews don’t!

Meanwhile, Muslims consider the Koran the next step forward, and Christians don’t, while Mormons consider the Book of Mormon a logical growth from the Bible, and no one else does.

Nothing in the actual OT supports the interpretation that the NT is its successor.

This is what happens when people use a book to prove that the book is true: circularity ensues.
