There is no “Church,” nor “new” covenant.

See, days are coming—oracle of the LORD—when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah. (Jer. 31:31)

With them I will [future tense] make an everlasting covenant, never to cease doing good to them; I will put fear of me in their hearts so that they never turn away from me. (Jer. 32:40)

And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant [καινη διαθηκη] in my blood, which will be shed for you." (Luke 22:20)

The main point of what has been said is this: we have such a high priest, who has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle that the Lord, not man, set up. Now every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus the necessity for this one also to have something to offer. If then he were on earth, he would not be a priest, since there are those who offer gifts according to the law. They worship in a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary, as Moses was warned when he was about to erect the tabernacle. For he says, “See that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” Now he has obtained so much more excellent a ministry as he is mediator of a better covenant, enacted on better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, no place would have been sought for a second one. But he finds fault with them and says:

“Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord,
when I will conclude a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.

It will not be like the covenant I made with their fathers
the day I took them by the hand to lead them forth from the land of Egypt;
for they did not stand by my covenant
and I ignored them, says the Lord.

But this is the covenant I will establish with the house of Israel
after those days, says the Lord:
I will put my laws in their minds
and I will write them upon their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.

And they shall not teach, each one his fellow citizen
and kinsman, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
for all shall know me,
from least to greatest.

For I will forgive their evildoing
and remember their sins no more.”

When he speaks of a “new” covenant, he declares the first one obsolete. And what has become obsolete and has grown old is close to disappearing.

If you actually read Jeremiah you will see that it is a renewed covenant that is the old covenant satisfied by Yeshua’s sinless blood, with Torah written on our hearts.

How many do you see here that show any evidence of keeping Torah willingly as they would were it written on their hearts?

P.S.
John states the same thing in his first epistle:

1John2:

[7] Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
[8] Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth

Look how good and how pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! ;o)

Glad to see there are many things we agree on.

The “new covenant” is the old covenant rewritten in our hearts.

Absolutely nothing has been added, nor removed. It is also with the same Kehillah, the two houses of Israel, not with the imaginary church that the adversary added in the 4th century.
