if a Christian, who has a holy book that contains the previous covenant (called old Testament) violates some prohibition in that o. t., or failed to do a ceremony , or does some but not all, do you think they are hypocrite? or a phony?

a week later i see i failed to generate conversations. so i clarify.
ask about JEW, no question because if a jew violated bible, for example ate rabbit. that is a sin not hypocrite because he followed temptation. better to do part even if violated part. same for Christian regard new testament for example ate blood. sin but better to do part even if sin not "all or nothing"
in contrast a christian who ate rabbit is NOT a sin.

according to new covenant the previous old testament "ended and faded" in several sources, matching jeremia chapter 31, so even if sin is not optional , still the o t. rules are not sin.

I think it's hypocrisy, because there is a verse, i don't know exactly but it says if you want to go to the paradise You should keep the laws of the old testament.
the word keep can mean study? reading preserved?
Ask the same question to Jews and Muslims.
Do they stop being Jewish or stop being Muslim?
Or do you only feel comfortable asking this of Christians and calling them hypocrites?
to ag, i anticipated your reply. please notice, the question is not about "stop being" but about sin. also notice the question mark i wrote after hypocrite. and the distinction between n. t. and o. t. did the question mention both? reread it and try again. tnx
i hoped someone would reply not hypocrite nor sin but people do jot yet know the sources:
sources, romans 3,28 and 4,16. the law remains for reading only. romans 6,14 and 7,3 and 4.
in fact romans 7,6 is the best match to jeremiah 31 fulfilling it. "now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code." other books too. so o. t. not sin. released.
