This is why the adversary has tricked people into thinking God's laws are abolished, and some new era of enlightenment is above the law of God, and that "thinking" about God is better than "doing" what God said.
The devil knows that the more truth you obey, the more truth you will be given, and more power and grace from God to walk with Him.

Galatians 3
15 To give a human example, brothers:[f] even with a man-made covenant, no one annuls it or adds to it once it has been ratified. 16 Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, “And to your offspring,” who is Christ. 17 This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void. 18 For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.
19 Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made, and it was put in place through angels by an intermediary. 20 Now an intermediary implies more than one, but God is one.
21 Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could give life, then righteousness would indeed be by the law. 22 But the Scripture imprisoned everything under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
which is it? which covenant are you teaching?

You're using that word again, "rely", which no one else here is using, or believes in.
(And yes, both of my sons have been circumcised, one of the 8th day, and one later (medical issues).
Did I do it as a sign of my reliance on the Old Covenant to be saved? No.
Did I do it from a desire to be obedient to God's instruction? Yes.
Did I do it because it's healthy? Yes.)

Perhaps you can show us how to reconcile other writings of Paul to what you posted...
