"The new covenant is a new and better way of relating to God, one that is based on faith in Christ rather than obedience to the law."
In other words, a new interpretation of religion itself.
But still anchored in middle eastern mysticism.

Many Americans believe that America is a Democracy. But so did/does the USSR, N. Korea, and China... See where this is going?
Just because you're "democratic" doesn't mean that you're free. Democracy only means that you're mob ruled.

The elites allowed Americans to have cars, airplanes, straws, and stoves and then they banned them.
Why do you think the globalists will allow you to keep the Internet?
Prisons and North Korea don't have the web for a reason. Ideas and communication tools are dangerous.

Everything is illegal, everyone is a criminal, everyone is under surveillance 24/7, and no one cares.
Living in a police state means that you must live in dread of being arrested. You can't help feeling hopeless.

The main theme of the new covenant with Christ is that it supersedes the old covenant and its promises. The new covenant is a new and better covenant that is based on the blood of Christ, rather than the blood of animals (Hebrews 8:6-13, 9:11-14).
In this sense, the new covenant with Christ does indeed negate the previous promises, at least in the sense that they are no longer the primary focus of God's relationship with humanity. The new covenant is a new and better way of relating to God, one that is based on faith in Christ rather than obedience to the law.
The flaws I mentioned earlier are more related to the interpretation of the Old Testament promises, rather than the main theme of the new covenant with Christ. However, if we accept that the new covenant with Christ supersedes the old covenant and its promises, then it's possible to argue that the previous promises are no longer relevant or applicable.
In this sense, the new covenant with Christ can be seen as a fulfillment of the Old Testament promises, but also a transcendence of them. The new covenant is a new and better way of relating to God, one that is based on faith in Christ rather than obedience to the law.
It's worth noting that the apostle Paul writes that the old covenant is "obsolete" and "will soon disappear" (Hebrews 8:13), and that the new covenant is a "better covenant" that is based on "better promises" (Hebrews 8:6). This suggests that the new covenant with Christ is indeed a new and better way of relating to God, one that supersedes the old covenant and its promises.

This is me being a bit lazy and I did manipulate a bit, but: t
The fulfillment in Christ could indeed be the fulfillment of all the Old Testament promises. This view is often referred to as the "already-not yet" perspective, where the kingdom of God is already present in Christ, but its full manifestation is still to come.
In this view, the promises to Israel are not necessarily about a future literal earthly kingdom, but rather about the spiritual kingdom of God that has been established through Christ. The promises of land, restoration, and kingdom are seen as being fulfilled in a spiritual sense, with Christ as the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises.
This interpretation is supported by various biblical passages, such as:
Jesus' statement that the kingdom of God is "in your midst" (Luke 17:21) and that it is a spiritual kingdom that is not of this world (John 18:36).
The apostle Paul's statement that the true circumcision is a matter of the heart, not of the flesh (Romans 2:28-29), and that the true Israel is the spiritual Israel, not the physical one (Romans 9:6-8).
The book of Hebrews' argument that the Old Testament sacrifices and rituals were only shadows of the true reality, which is Christ (Hebrews 8:5, 10:1).
In this view, the fulfillment in Christ is not just a partial fulfillment, but rather the ultimate fulfillment of all God's promises. The Old Testament promises are seen as being fulfilled in a way that is more profound and universal than a literal earthly kingdom.
