That is not accurate. The old testament is something like 80% of the bible. It contains the ten commandments, the story of creation and many other things that are still in use today. Like any other religion, different sects have different interpretations of the Bible, but I'm not aware of anyone who throws the old testament out entirely (it also wouldn't make much sense, Jesus is fulfilling a prophecy from the old testament, without that he's just some guy). Further, you will often hear about a "personal relationship with Christ" that the faithful have, that is to say everyone interpets the Bible differently.
