Yes but you do not eat fat and blood ? but still eat pig and shellfish! Eating pig is not prohibited in Christianity, some do it or some refuse to do it depends on either he refused Old Testament or obeys it. This is know for Christians follow what they like and refuse what they do not like and make weak unreasonable excuses so that they can save themselves. The main problem here is New Testament is empty of rules and laws, specially inheritance, worships, and daily life etc , in-spite of that personnel choices and desires have the priority to decide.
Jesus was a Jew, he lived under the Jewish law, of course he was circumcised. I follow Jesus and His message. Following the message does not mean one has to emulate the messenger in all things. The message was concerned with making ourselves right with God, a person cannot achieve salvation through the law, one can adhere to the law and still not achieve righteousness. The Old Testament laws were fulfilled in Jesus.

Islam takes control of every aspect of your life and it seems that all the rules and regulations you follow are to keep you from sinning. I believe a person intrinsically knows what is a sin and what is not... Atheists can be kind and law abiding citizens and they do not take their "moral code" from religion, just instinctively know what is right and wrong. I believe this is God given even for those who deny God. Christians see that God has given us freedom of choice, Jesus set the standard by which we are to live by to make ourselves right with God. Read the sermon on the mount, it pretty much sums up how we are expected to live our life in regards to rules.

I already said christians are under the new covenant of grace brought through Jesus. It is not the same covenant as the Jews made and does not have the same requirements.

You still have not answered my question, and yet you are demanding of me to answer yours.. My question again..

Did God make a covenant with Mohammed for muslims?

Peace.
