However, it is written on the hearts and minds of all those who are under the New Covenant (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 13:8-10; Romans 5:5; 1 John 2:3-6).
You are confusing Moses law the old covenant word with the gospel Christians belong to Jesus Christ and his words not moses and his. It’s almost like you refuse to accept that there’s a New Testament that was always promised
actually
Gentiles have never been under Moses law but all nations belong to the gospel. Got to have the gospel written on the heart that’s why it’s about hearing and believing the gospel that’s how it gets written on a persons heart of faith
the law will only ever give the knowledge of sin and guilt it has no power to do anything else. That’s why we get baptized it means we have no died and the law doesn’t apply to dead people thier transgression of it is what put them to death
Moses law was for the children of Israel to apply when they entered the promised land the gospel is for those entering this place
“Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.”
2 Peter 3:13 KJV
if we need “ don’t kill “ written on our heart it only shows we are a sinner who doesn’t understand what repentance is . If we need to be told “ don’t lie “ ot proves we’re a liar . If we need don’t commit adultery on our heart it shows we are unfaithful
If you have a group of known criminals you speak to them by telling them “ don’t don’t do this , nor do this not this or this or you will surely be put to death “
that’s not how you raise and teach children you teach children the right things to do you teach them the right way to go .
The law is nOt for Gods children it’s for these children of the world
“Knowing this, that
the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;”
1 Timothy 1:9-10 KJV
That’s why it’s written as it is it’s for rebels and unrepentant sinners who follow sin so you warn them constantly this is sin don’t sin , this is sin don’t sin .
a born again person isn’t thinking about sin thier learnkng about righteousness forgive others who sin against you don’t condemn and execute them like Moses taught , help others , do good for others ,
Help the needy , be faithful to your spouses stick to marriage, these are the right things , do the right things …
it’s God speaking from two totally different perspectives one to unrepentant unspiritual carnal people , and one to new born children of God following the son of God
you should consider there are two seperate covenants the first witnessing of the last
“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:
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:
( plainly there the new isn’t according to the old )
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.
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.”
Jeremiah 31:31-34 KJV
That last part shows how opposite it is and why it’s impossible for them to be together
“Now we know that
what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that
every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
Romans 3:19-20 KJV
One covenant is about removing sin forgiving it taking it away teaching the person from Gods actual words the other was required to bring everyone to the understanding that we are far from what we’re meant to be and need mercy and restoration
the law isn’t bad it’s just not our law it was the Old Testament required to bring the new in they aren’t one they are two and have two words one of death one of life the law of Moses isn’t Gods law Christs word is Gods law
