True but All Christians are not form teh House of Israel and the House of Jdah. And only Jewish Christians are related to those who disobeyed the prior covenant God made with their Fathers in the desert. God did not name any other ethnos in the desert that was part of that Old covenant. But you should know that.
All Christians are members of Christ therefore of the house
The household of faith 1 Tim 3:15

1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Yes they are, but gentile believers are not part of the House of Israel nor the house of Judah! those are physical jews! And God will make a covenant with them.

YOu still haven't answered teh question yet.

Matt 21

33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

Vs 38-39 how could God make a covenant with those who killed His son?
Vs 43 the kingdom taken from them given to the church to bear fruit Jn 15:1-5 Isa 22:21-22 matt 16:18-19

Christ is the only mediator

2 Timothy 2:12
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

the Jews rejected / denied Christ
Christ must reject / deny them

Matt 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

the Jews must repent and be baptized just like everyone else or be lost forever

The Jews are of the bond woman

Christians are of the free

the bond is the old covenant

the free is the new covenant the new Jerusalem our mother

Gal 4

The nature of vice and virtue:

Pride by its nature must always be in rebellion and protest!
Alway say no, I will not serve!
Always associated with presumption and arrogance!

Humility by its nature must obey, and be faithful! Unless you become like little children. Matt 18:3 always associated with faith, hope, and charity!

The truth is filled with virtues and sets us free!
The doctrine of devils is filled with the vices of the devils to ensnare those who refuse to listen to the truth from the bosom of holy mother church!

1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and one mediatorbetween God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

present tense

Correct! So jesus is presently mediating the new covenant- not enforcing it. One mediates something to get it to go into effect. Once a covenant is in effect there is no longer a need for a mediator!

And teh covenant is with the children of those who He made a covenant with in the desert but broke that covenant.

And a covenant still needs a mediator as the Bible declares.

Jn 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Not some “all”

Christ is King of Glory!

Dan 2: 44 And in the days of these kings (Roman Caesars) shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

Isaiah 2:2
And it shall come to pass in the last days, (acts 2:17 began at Pentecost) that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

Micah 4:1
But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.

Lk 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Matthew 5:14
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

That is not the new Covenant, but salvation into the church, the church is not part of the new covenant.
The savior
The mediator
The king
All are Christ
Salvation
The new covenant church
The kingdom
Also are all the same
