YHou are right I have a hard time understanding you- you reinteprret SCriptures and bounce all over the place. You can't prove that teh covenant to Israel is another New Covenant to gentiles.
And yes Gods truth (not my opinions) are my ministry.
My students know when I preach Gods Word or am uttering an opinion based on the Word.
So as for my klack of depth of undersatanding the meaning of your words- doesx that mean I should not take what you say literally, but you are speaking in sacfred riddles and I need an allegorical mindset to understand that whay you say is not what you eman?
Does that mean, if I talk to others about your writings I can make my own conclusions lik eother allegorists do about Gods Word???
Well I await for you to show me the passage where Jesus lists the provisions of a covenant with Christians. Please don't go to the Lords Supper.
Jesus did not say His blood was the covenant- But that His blood is the blood of the NEW covenant! do a bible study on biblical covenants and learn that all covenants need blood to "ratify" them. so the Lords Supper is the blood shed FOR the covenant but is not the covenant and it is for a NEW Covenant. what is the OLD covenant God made with christians?
Well now you will know there are more places other than University where you can teach a course on eschatology. But other than in church studies ( as a separate study apart from services) I taught at Pioneer Valley Institute of the Bible ( a satellite school of an accredited by Maryland and in Maryland) and also at the First Baptist Institute of the bible which, with my senior Pastor and a staff Pastor, took ten years to create, get the curriculum and receive approval to transfer credits to many Baptist colleges.
The teaching I have doen for over 35 years were all part and parcel of an extended discipleship training program for our church members. I have been privileged to teach men who have gone on to become pastors and missionaries, deacons, and go on to serve and teach other churches. If you need more I can gladly list for you all teh classes and book studies I have done in that time span.

A Brief Look at Covenant Theology
What is God's covenant with man? It is an agreement between God and man including promises of redemption that are conditionally and initially based on works, and later Grace.
Adamic Covenant was based on works. It was with Adam, but since Adam represented mankind, it was made with the whole human race. It required one law, obedience to that law and they failed - so we all did as well, sin was imputed onto the world and the wages of that sin is death. We are born with the judgment of death hanging over our heads. There is nothing we can do to remove sin.
But God had mercy and promised a Savior, which is the Covenant of Grace through faith in the Savior/ Messiah - given in Genesis 3 and throughout the Bible.
The New Covenant would be this Covenant of Grace through Faith. It required that the Covenant of works be first fulfilled perfectly by Christ _ by HIS Blood and Death. His Resurrection was part of the New Covenant, but part of the whole redemptive covenant that the Trinity made.
So the agreement of redemption of mankind has always been an agreement between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit before the foundation of the world.
By having faith in His Life, Death and Resurrection, we become beneficiaries of the Old Covenants: Adamic, Noahic, Mosaic and the New Covenant.
Israel will receive this New Covenant through Christ as we did already.
I can even tighten that up.
Jesus made a covenant/agreement and promise with the entire human race: Believe in Me and you will have eternal life. Amen
