Romans 7:4-6
[FONT="]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.[/FONT]
[FONT="]5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.[/FONT]
[FONT="]6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
Galatians 3:9-14

[FONT="]9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.[/FONT]
[FONT="]10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.[/FONT]
[FONT="]11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.[/FONT]
[FONT="]12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.[/FONT]
[FONT="]13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:[/FONT]
[FONT="]14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Hebrew roots folks don't really understand the predicament they place theirselves into. Attempting to mix the covenants and pretending this is pleasing to God.
Choose just one covenant, please. Be hot or cold.[/FONT]
Wow. Where to begin with this... First. Do you understand what the new covenant (renewed covenant is some translations. Either is fine) is? How we know when it begins? Etc.?
Let us begin with the terms first use in Scripture. This is in Jerimiah 31. Starting in verse 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:
Plain enough. There will be a new or covenant (contract) in the future, even though it is undeserved because the second party - Israel (whether physical bloodline or grafted in members) broke the original contract. Okay let us continue.
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.
Hmm. So the law will still be involved. After all he is the same yesterday today and tomorrow. Only now it will be embedded into us. Written in our hearts and minds. Okay. Lets hold onto that for a minute. And go on reading.
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.
Okay so there will be no more spiritual teachers when the new covenant begins. Do you have a pastor? Are you a pastor? Then you are NOT in a New Covenant Church by the biblical definition. did you think you were? Do you live somewhere that every body great and small lives in communion with The Father and The Messiah? No? Then the New Covenant has not started where you live. So when does this begin? Do not worry we are told as we keep reading
35 Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
37 Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.
38 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananeel unto the gate of the corner.
39 And the measuring line shall yet go forth over against it upon the hill Gareb, and shall compass about to Goath.
40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
So we are told this is The Fathers word. And that it will take place when not only Israel but also the whole of Jerusalem is Whole and Holy TO TH FATHER. ie no mosques etc. Forevermore. That hasnot happened yet. All this is plainly written with no interpretation needed. And is echoed pretty much word for word in Hebrews 8. So it is pretty much impossible to "mix" the covenants if you are a whole bible believer. I will respond to your verses in another reply.
