Aside from your usual insulting methodology and arrogant disdain, you are lumping scriptures aimed at Jews under the covenant God made with Israel, and the new covenant God as Jesus made with ALL WHO WILL BELIVEW in Whom God has sent for our deliverance. Any further posts in response to you are useless since you are more knowledgeable that Paul according to your posts assumptions.It must have taken you years to refine this insulting snipe mode. I for one am not amused, so I'll just warn you to not take the mark soon to be commanded to you.

The old covenant was made with Israel. The new covenant was made with the house of Israel and the house of Judah. We as Christians (Gentiles) are grafted into the promise. The new covenant was NOT made with Christians. We simply benefit from it because we have been given the opportunity of Salvation. That is what the bible says.

Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

It was foretold in the old testament:

Jeremiah 31:
31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

fortes fortuna juvat is correct
