The old covenant was being followed by the members of the new covenant. There was a council about that. Remember?

The old covenant was being forced on Gentile converts by some of the Jews..not the NT church ,one of those that was a part of that problem was Peter .. The 1s church council led by James rules to only hold them to a couple basic requirements

The NT church was never law based ...

That is why the Roman church is an Old Covenant church.. it is all law and works and tradition

They were the SAME GROUP until Jerusalem was destroyed. Jesus Christ was JEWISH not a Christian.

Sorry, I forgot he carried around KJV with the boys.

Romans 7:1 7 2 3 What then can we say? That the law is sin? Of course not! Yet I did not know sin except through the law, and I did not know what it is to covet except that the law said, "You shall not covet." 8 But sin, finding an opportunity in the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetousness. Apart from the law sin is dead. 9 I once lived outside the law, but when the commandment came, sin became alive; 10 then I died, and the commandment that was for life turned out to be death for me. 11 For sin, seizing an opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and through it put me to death. 12 So then the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.

No, it is not - you are incorrect.
