By the Testimony of the Messiah they can.. from stone tablets to our inwards... by the Grace of GOD through Faith.
The veil was ripped when the Messiah ...
Matthew 27
48And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink. 49The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him. 50Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. 54Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
The New Covenant is GOD's law written on our hearts and minds... The Messiah Gave His Testimony and then suffered much for us..
The saints Keep the Commandments of GOD and Have His Testimony... because He teaches us the Commandments and how to love GOD.
We are made New to worship in Spirit and Truth and our obedient heart is pleasing to Heavenly Father.
The just will live by Faith.

What is the definition of grace?
Attribute: https://www.gotquestions.org/definition-of-grace.html
The Bible teaches that grace is completely unmerited. The gift and the act of giving have nothing at all to do with our merit or innate quality (Romans 4:4; 11:5–6; 2 Timothy 1:9–10). In fact, the Bible says quite clearly that we don’t deserve God’s salvation. Romans 5:8–10 says, “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. . . . While we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son.”
Grace is actively and continually working in the lives of God’s people. Paul credited the success of his ministry not to his own substantial labors but to “the grace of God that was with me” (1 Corinthians 15:10). Grace is the ongoing, benevolent act of God working in us, without which we can do nothing (John 15:5). Grace is greater than our sin (Romans 5:20), more abundant than we expect (1 Timothy 1:14), and too wonderful for words (2 Corinthians 9:15).
"The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." John1:14

The new law written on our hearts is Jesus not the ten commandments.
The new testament scripture teaches about.....
The law of love (John 13:34)
The law of liberty (James 1:21)
The law of the Spirit of Life
For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. (2 Cor 3:6)
It is His essence within us (grace) that allows us to live in these new laws that bring life not death like the laws of the old testament
I am unsure if we are saying similar things or are very different things?

GOD made a New Covenant... He would put His law on our hearts..
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.
Jeremiah 31

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.

Will pm the name.
Some might associate a teacher with a school teacher.
I said I've taught both children and adults our faith.
For years.
See. This is context and interpretation.
I only mention this because I'm constantly accused of what you have just done.
Maybe we should be a little nicer to each other, as Jesus would like.

“This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, says the Lord. I will put My Laws in their hearts and inscribe them on their minds.” 17Then he adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more.” 18And where these have been forgiven, an offering for sin is no longer needed.…
This is not the law of the old covenant it is new law under the forgiveness of sins where sacrifice is no longer needed
The old law brought death the new law brings life
You need to understand this also in light of what Paul teaches in Romans about the Law of the old testament.

I have not accused you of anything, I misunderstood you when you spoke about teaching.
Just like you judged my motives of why I asked about what it means to be born again.
Not really sure what you mean by nice?
I just do not agree with you on how we do works as in the source, and their role and function, as I have already said.
I could invite you over for an espresso and we could probably have a more reasonable conversation, maybe,
however a discussion board is just quick snippets here and there.
I think you add to much emotion to the words that are written, I have been blasted left, right and center, told to be quiet even, anyone ever say that to you?
If we are invested in our belief then the passion will come out too...hopefully though it is not with malice and I really have only seen that a few times I think.
