God, in his word, told man to mark skin as a mark of being set apart for him, then God changed that to say we must be set apart in our hearts, not our skin. That is a change. How do you account for that? God said we must be sure our food is without garbage but pure, then God said food we eat goes in our stomach and is eliminated, it is food in our hearts (minds) that counts. That is a change.
The Lord gave the old covenant and then changed it to the new covenant.

1. You asked. Did Christ change God? We have the right to answer that
2. You bore false witness claiming people say Gods truth has changed.
Its kind of hard to go to scripture for anyone if your main point is wrong.. We need to get that straightened out first.
can you respond to why you made untruthful statements? Or continue?

I am saying that God spoke to man in the OT about spiritual things by using fleshly symbols of the the spirit of the Lord, God asks us all to be circumcised, but in the OT he had them mark skin to show they were set apart and belonged to the Lord, but after the new covenant that command was given directly by the holy spirit for our understanding of it, and the cutting of skin was obsolete. We are to read all the commands given in the old testament with the new understanding we are given now.
God did not change his commands, but God changed the method of delivering those commands. God is eternal, God does not change.

I think God tells us he is perfect and he and his commands are eternal. We are to know the difference between giving commands in stone as his command no to murder or to cut skin to be circumcised is, but under the new covenant we are to know the spirit of those commands and not to read them as being under the old covenant. We are under the new covenant. So as Christ said under the old covenant "you have been told" but Christ brought in the new covenant so Christ says "but I tell you". Christ explained that he did not change anything his Father told us, yet here is a change. I think we are to see this as under the new covenant not to murder is not to murder them in our hearts, but respect them as people. To be circumcised is not to cut skin but belong to God as a set apart people in our hearts. We are not to say God is not eternal and what God says is not eternal, but to read what God says under the new covenant.

Did not rewrite your post.
He responded to your post by quoting the individual parts of it and presenting his belief.
He is entitled to do this.
This is a discussion forum, and he discussed and gave his views,
Got no idea by what you mean "I have a mother"
Please expand
Yes we all have God, the Holy Spirit as a result of faith in Jesus and be reticent that you do not do the same enforcing upon others that you reject for you.
As said we are all entitled to post what we want on a discussion forum.
You, me and everyone on this site.

Anyone who thinks law has no place in the New Covenant is not versed in any wise in the NT scriptures.
If they are of that opinion and claim the name of Christ as their rock and faith, they're foolish out of ignorance, or are false and purposed.
And before the retort arrives, rude and full of slights and pejoratives that lend evidence to the latter of purpose, no. Why repeat the same scriptures over and over again hoping for a different result?
When such ones ignore the NT evidence in itself, excerpts here don't stand a chance.
"There's no law that applies to the NT Christian!"
Scary thought. And patently untrue.
