The Old Covenant was the Ten Commandment Covenant. Deut 4:13;Ex 34:28. The New Covenant is the Old Covenant engraved in our hearts and minds. Jer 31:31-34; Heb 8:10;10:16 - An Internal Covenant. (We are called Abraham's seed in Ga 3:7,29)."Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men. Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tablets of the heart." 2 Cor 3:2,3.#1 "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me."#2 "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God AM a jealous God, visiting the iniquity (lawlessness) of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me: and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep My commandments.""Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry." 1 Cor 10:14; Ga 5:20; Col 3:5; 1 Thess 1:9; 1 John 5:21; Rev 9:20.#3 "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain." (It, also means, to take His name lightly.)"And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give Him glory." Rev 16:9; 1 Pe 4:14; Ro 2:24; Acts 4:12; Phil 2:9,10; Rev 13:6.#4 "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man servant, nor thy maid servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it."Jesus referred to Himself as "The Lord of the Sabbath." My 12:8; Mk 2:28; Lu 6:5. Jesus prophesied, that, the Sabbath would be kept during The Great Tribulation, and we are not there, yet. Mt 24:20. The children of Israel, Jesus, His disciples, and the New Testament Christians kept the Sabbath holy. Mt 12:1,2,5,8,10,11,12; 24:20;28:1;Mk 1:21;2:23,24,27,28...Acts 1:12;13:14,27,42,44;15:21;16:13;17:2;18:4.Isaiah prophesied, that, God's people will keep the Sabbath in His kingdom. Isa 66:22,23.#5 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days mey be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.""For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy." 2 Tim 3:2; Mt 10:21; Rom 1:30; Eph 6:1; Col 3:20...#6 "Thou shalt not kill."Jesus said, "...Thou shalt do no murder..." Mt 19:18; Mk 10:19; Lu 18:20; Rom 13:9; Ja 2:11...#7 "Thou shalt not commit adultery."Jesus said, "...Thou shalt not commit adultery..." Mt 19:18; Mk 10:19; Lu 18:20; Rom 13:9; Ja 2:11...#8 "Thou shalt not steal."Jesus said, "Thou knowest the commandments...Do not steal..." Mt 19:18; Mk 10:19; Lu 18:20...#9 "Thou shalt not bear false witness."Jesus said, "...Thou shalt not bear false witness..." Mt 19:18; Mk 10:19; Lu 18:20...#10 "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man servant, nor his maid servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's.""...Thou shalt not covet..." Ro 13:9; 7:7; 1 Cor 5:10,11; 6:10; Eph 5:5; 1 Tim 3:3; 2 Tim 3:2; 2 Pe 2:14..."As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions ("of the law" 1 John 3:4) from us...TO SUCH AS KEEP HIS COVENANT AND TO THOSE THAT REMEMBER HIS COMMANDMENTS TO DO THEM." Ps 103."Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have RIGHT to the tree of life, AND MAY ENTER IN through the gates into the city." Rev 22:14.Covenants have conditions.Even in heaven, the Lord makes quite a statement about His Covenant:"And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in His temple The Ark of His Testament: and there were LIGHTNINGS, and VOICES, and THUNDERINGS, and AN EARTHQUAKE, and GREAT HAIL." Rev 11:19.There was, only, One Covenant in The Ark - THE TEN COMMANDMENT COVENANT.

Not for you because you because you are not of the House of Israel or the House of Judah, God has not written on your heart because you are a vessel of destruction, you are not a Christian, if you were then you would be under the blood covenant of Hebrews but by your own addmission you are not, and I have correctly identified you as such.All Hebrews and Shemites like myself are true Christians, the blood of Jesus is for us, as it is written.

The Old Covenant was The Ten Commandment Covenant. It was based upon the promise of the people. Ex 24:7. The New Covenant is based upon the promise of God:"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 in their hearts; and I will ne their God and they shall be My people." Jer 31:31-34; Heb 8:10; 10:16 - An Internal Covenant.WHO is He speaking of? Paul answers, "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made, He saith not, And to thy seeds as of many: but as of one, And to thy seed which is Christ." "And IF ye be Christ's, then are YE Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." Ga 3:16.29."Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham." Ga 3:7."For he is not a Jew, who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God." Rom 2:28,29The promises were made through Abraham to the children of promise (Rom 9:6-8), who are justified by faith - whether Jew or Gentile.

The New Covenant is a manifestation of the everlasting covenant heb 13:20Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

There is no condimnation for those in Jesus, which means we are not under the law.The law kills Jesus saves.Cant mix new wine in old wine skins.Thank God for the new covenant.If you live under the law you will be judged by the law. Get ready to die, because if you break one even in your mind youve broke them all and that death.

Well remember even though God put a slumber on Judah, the bible says that Judah (today Jews) are to preserve the law because they don't know Christ, yet God will save the remnant of the Jews.

herald, The old covenant and the New Covenant are different!! There were 613 decrees and laws that the Israelites were commanded to obey. It was the code of laws that condemned them to death, not whether they were written or on hearts, 2Cor 3:6-9. The Bible tells us that we become dead to the old law covenant, Rom 7:4,6. The scriptures tells us that the Law Code was, symboliclly nailed to the stake with Jesus and done away with, Col 2:13,14,16,17. At Jesus' death the Old Mosaic Law Covenant became OBSOLETE, Heb 8:12,13. Everyone that remains under the Mosaic Law Covenant is under a curse, Gal 3:10-14, because people under the law were required to obey all of the Law. This is talking about the decrees in the Law itself not whether it is written on tablets of stone or on hearts. The Mosaic Law condemned to death, Rom 6:23, James 2:10. Peter also showed it was the things written in the law that he nor his forefathers could obey, Acts 15:10. By being under the Mosaic Law Covenant no one could be completely forgiven of his sins, Acts 13:38,39, Heb 10:11. The New Covenant that Jesus instituted on the night before his death was a much BETTER Covenant because it was estabolished on the Precious Blood of Jesus, while the Mosaic Law Covenant was estabolished on the blood of goats and bulls. Under the New Covenant sins are not charged against Christians who remain in God's favor, Heb 10:16-18, they are, in God's eyes PERFECT PERPETUALLY, Heb 10:14. Man could never obey the Mosaic Law completely so Jesus came and died for us to take away the law that we could never obey, so were would not always be under the law of sin and therefore death, Rom 8:2-4, Heb 7:18,19, 9:8-12.:read:
