The religious and theological system of the New Testament is an outgrowth of the Old, as Christianity, properly understood, is a branch of Judaism, as is Islam.I truly respect you, but there’s nothing positive in the NT that wasn’t lifted from Tanach.
But I would be interested in you finding this for me in the Old Testament;
1) 'if a man commands you to carry his cloak for a mile, carry it instead for two miles'
2) 'if a man slaps you on the left cheek, turn the other to him to slap as well.'
3) 'pray for your enemies that they may be saved'
4) 'Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Light'
5) 'Let he who is without sin cast the first stone'
