This is not part of the new covenant promise. It is a prophecy of the new heavens and earth.
Hebrews 8:8Because finding fault with them, He says: “Behold, the days are coming, says theLord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 9not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says theLord. 10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 11None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

Is the new covenant in effect?
Do all know God?
Are none being taught?

You really dont get it, if you are in Christ than you are no longer a sinner, secondly the law was never given to christians, thirdly the law was the husband to the Jews but they where divorced for the law so Christ could be there husband, but you have left Christ to be joined to the law, you cannot have 2 husbands you must choose which will it be Christ or the law or will you remain in your sin by disobedience.

Rom 7:1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
Rom 7:2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
Rom 7:3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
Rom 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

You have chosen the law to reign over you and not Christ, as I said all you have found is the SDA christ not the real Christ.

"He must increase, but I must decrease." John 3:30
What is the "I" here? Who is the "He"? It was John the Baptist speaking, but should we not be approaching God in the same Way? How low are we? If we do not know, God certainly does!

How high can we go? For God there is no limit, but for you and I the limit is according to us. Help us dear Lord!

Yes, the new covenant is in effect.

Yes, as that is what scriptures said. But to be clear, the all is not all people, but all the new covenant people of God, the Israel of God, if I may refer to them.

Yes, for all the children of God, know God.

Colossians 2:16-17 NKJV - "So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ."

Why would Paul write the above passage?

Paul did not write what you quoted. You quoted quasi translators, like the Adventists.

Galatians 3:10 NLT - "But those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, "Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God's Book of the Law."

This is why Paul wrote the following:

Colossians 2:16-17 NKJV - "So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ."

Re: <<This is why Paul wrote the following:>> Arbitrary false allegation ignorant of the first principles of faithful exegesis.

Colossians 2
A: 2That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; 3In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

WHAT YOU TRY YOUR BEST TO NULLIFY

B: 4And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.

WHAT YOU ARE TRYING YOUR BEST TO DO
