Heb 8:10  For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel After those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, And on their heart also will I write them: And I will be to them a God, And they shall be to me a people:
Heb 8:11  And they shall not teach every man his fellow-citizen, And every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: For all shall know me, From the least to the greatest of them.

Heb 8:12  For I will be merciful to their iniquities, And their sins will I remember no more. ASV

  Ladies & gentlemen... This is a description of the nature of the New Covenant ushered in by the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ in His 1st Advent; which Covenant was sealed by His own precious blood!     Please take careful notice of the elements of this New Covenant delineated in this passage.

*He, God will put His laws in their minds.
*He will write them on their hearts.
*He will be a God to them.
*They shall be to Him a people.
*All from the least to the greatest of them shall know Him.
*God will be merciful to their iniquities.
*Their sins He will remember no more.

Now look over that list, which is a direct extraction from the passage. I neither invented, added to or subtracted from it.
These are the very words of God... by which men are commanded to live by Every one of them. Now ask yourself...
Can such words be said in any way at all of an UNregenerate person? An UNbeliever? Can an UNregenerate, UNbeliever have his sins "remembered no more"? Yet Covenant Theologians make the anti-Biblical, heretical statement that a new-born infant is "in this covenant" by reason of his ~Fleshly~ birth to supposedly believing parents! Yet John said that entrance into the New Covenant is ~Not~ by Flesh birth! John 1:12,13 / 3:3ff !

Such a doctrine is a direct contradiction to the very words of God in His Scriptures. The Lord Jesus Christ never taught such a doctrine anywhere. And the Apostle John said...
Everyone transgressing and not abiding in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. 2John 9.
