God also clearly sets aside one covenant with His people for another. He clearly states that we have a new covenant in Christ I don’t know why you take an obscure part of levitical dietary law which was clearly rescinded in the NT to try to prove God can’t do what He says We no longer live under levitical law it has served its purpose are you a Jehovah’s Witness? You speak like one

Definitely not a JW, nor a Mormon, nor a catholic. When God commands something FOR ALL THEIR GENERATIONS, to institute a new covenant which would rescind such a commandment would be so significant that the change would have been taught over and over by Jesus, then the new covenant would be sealed with blood and go into effect. The Lord sat at Passover with the disciples when He took the bread and broke it (unleavened bread, BTW) and passed the cup of fruit of the vine.

At Passover the night before His Crucifixion, Jesus had not yet sealed the new covenant with His body and blood. The hallmark of the New Covenant is His blood upon the Mercy Seat to cover the law of sin and death. Paul spend hours with his mission field explaining this and showing how it is all found in the Septuagint.

The forbidding of drinking blood is not some obscure commandment to the Israelites. Because The Life is in The Blood. The Life of Jesus was in The Blood of Jesus and thus the perfect blood to cover the law of sin and death for you and me, once, for all, forever. This work done by Jesus was so important that the handling of blood was central to their beliefs foreshadowing salvation by faith in His Blood.

BTW, Paul says though who want to try and live by the law can do so. They are characterized as walking by the flesh. He contrasts that with walking by the Spirit. Are you familiar with that differentiation? Do you know from the Bible how the second Way is obtained?
