The first covenant with the nation of Israel was the Abrahamic covenant

Wrong. The first covenant was with Abraham. There was no nation of Israel present. Only one man.

The later Mosaic covenant was with Israel.

And, when we keep reading to the next verse

Which doesn't preclude the previous verse which states that the promise before the law was given to Christ.

you have yet to provide any Scripture which says that God has cancelled His promises to His nation

That's because as I have repeatedly said...God did not CANCEL any promise.

You have produced not one iota of Scripture where God says that He has cancelled the promises

What? You're saying this yet again? (Is there anyone on this thread who said God cancelled anything? Yet for some reason Giovanna wants to say it over and over and over... )

I'll post the verse again:

Now the a LORD had said to Abram: Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation.

Since the promise was made to Abraham, and it has not been fully fulfilled, and Abraham is dead, then the promise will kept by God to the nation that God created from Abraham.

Which doesn't preclude the previous verse which states that the promise before the law was given to Christ.

And since Scripture doesn't contradict itself, and since God emphatically and specifically states that the promises He made with Israel have not been done away with, then your understanding of the previous verse is flawed.

That's because as I have repeatedly said...God did not CANCEL any promise.

Well if they're not cancelled, and if Jesus did not fulfill them, and if God emphatically and specifically states that the promises have not been made null and void, then that means that the promises still are in effect and will be kept by the God Who made them.

What? You're saying this yet again? (Is there anyone on this thread who said God cancelled anything? Yet for some reason Giovanna wants to say it over and over and over... )

Unfortunately your compatriots in the replacement theology lie still don't seem to get it and believe that God lies and deceives and breaks promises and can produce no Scripture that supports their belief that the Church has replaced Israel. Don't you wish they could all be like you and finally accept Biblical truth?
