An excerpt from a chapter of a booklet that does a pretty good job of explaining how God's laws are applied under the new covenant. This excerpt is focused on the old covenant and explains the purpose and meaning of the old covenant.

[...]"The five books written by Moses—Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy—define the righteous way of life that God desires all peoples and nations to embrace (see Deuteronomy 4:6; 6:4-6; 8:2-3)."[...]

Where does it ever say that the covenant with Israel and the law of Moses was made for, or applied to strangers, foreigners or uncircumcised Gentiles as Gentiles outside Israel?

[...]"Once the sacrifice of Christ was in place, those temple ceremonies and rituals were simply no longer needed. But as Hebrews 8:10-13 clearly tells us, the spiritual laws that God had included in the Sinai Covenant were not disbanded. With the Spirit of God now available, the principles of love that the law so eloquently expressed can finally be written in the hearts of all who repent of breaking them." [...]

These "spiritual laws that that God had included in the Sinai Covenant, that 'would be written in the heart"; where does it ever say that the laws that God will write on the heart are the the same laws of the Sinai Covenant, and that they include such things as new moons?

Cordially,
