Temporary Hit Points don't combine like you might expect. Usually, casting a second Temporary Hit Point ability ''overrides'' the existing one. For example, if you cast [[False Life]] with a level 1 slot, you gain 7 Temporary Hit Points. If you step in a trap and lose 5 of them, you still have 2 left. If you cast [[False Life]] again, you don't end up with 2+7=9 Temporary Hit Points, you still just have 7.

This also applies if the second source of Temporary Hit Points is larger than the first. Casting [[Armor of Agathys]] at level 3 grants 15 temporary HP. These will override your existing 7, not add to them.
