Too many people try to live a "Christian life" based on a bunch of books that have nothing to do with Christ.

He needs to clarify then and not specify the entire Bible if he meant only the OT.

As to your 2nd point, I agree if you're saying you can't live a Christian life by basing your life solely on the teachings in the OT. In that case, you'd be living a Jewish life. 

In all seriousness, a Christian should still not overlook the OT. Maybe it's not to be used as a guidebook per se, but it can deepen our understanding of Jesus and His disciple's teachings and strengthen our relationship with God.
