Contradiction with James 1:25
This verse implies that adherence to the law brings blessing, suggesting it should not just be heard but also acted upon—contrasting with focusing solely on the hearing stated in Jeremiah 11:2.
James 1:25: But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth [therein], he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. [deed: or, doing]
Contradiction with Romans 7:6
It describes being delivered from the law and serving in the newness of the Spirit, contrary to the emphasis on hearing and adherence to the old covenant in Jeremiah 11:2.
Romans 7:6: But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not [in] the oldness of the letter. [that being...: or, being dead to that]
Contradiction with Galatians 2:16
Emphasizes that justification is by faith in Jesus Christ and not by the works of the law, contrasting with the instruction to hear and act upon the covenant in Jeremiah 11:2.
Galatians 2:16: Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Contradiction with Hebrews 8:13
States that the old covenant is obsolete, contradicting the directive to heed the words of the old covenant in Jeremiah 11:2.
Hebrews 8:13: In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old [is] ready to vanish away.
