GOD HAS MADE NO COVENANT WITH GENTILES

They receive the blessings of Abraham.
God made no covenant with Gentiles.
Gentiles are grafted in after the fact.
But God still has covenant with the people of the children of Israel who are descendants of Abraham. A family covenant.
Why do you resist this fact?
Many Gentiles do even if they are Christian. They just hate God's people which in fact is really a hatred for God through whom Israel has covenant.
The strawman argument above is easily dismissed by solid Biblical teaching which shows that the Gentiles are partakers of the same covenant as Israel, being grafted into the same root.

Rom 15:27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.

Gal 3:28-29 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (29) If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring and heirs according to promise.
Eph 3:6
that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

The Bible declares Gentiles grafted into the same holy root that Israel has.

Rom 11:17-18
But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them, and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree; (18) don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
 
The strawman argument above is easily dismissed by solid Biblical teaching which shows that the Gentiles are partakers of the same covenant as Israel, being grafted into the same root.
You're changing the Scripture. It doesn't say "same root" but grafted into the branch.

17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; Rom. 11:16–17.

And being grafted into the branch just like any ordinary tree it partakes of the root. But they are not grafted into the root but partake of the root.
Rom 15:27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
Gentiles may receive the blessings of Abraham, but the covenant is with Abraham the person and his seed (descendants) NOT with Gentiles. Abraham and his descendants (the children of Israel) are recipient of BOTH the natural covenant and its spiritual applications, but God made no covenant with Gentiles and Gentiles only receive the spiritual blessings. Gentiles are not the descendants of Abraham only through the spiritual blessings.
Gal 3:28-29 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (29) If you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring and heirs according to promise.
Notice the title "Christ" before His human name. The word "Christ/Messiah" means "anointed" and this refers to the spiritual blessings of Abraham, but God made no covenant with Gentiles. Israel is recipient of both the natural and spiritual promise of God while Gentiles only the spiritual.
Eph 3:6 that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,
Again, the title "Christ" before His human name meaning spiritual blessings but not the natural covenant. God made that aspect of the Abrahamic Covenant to Abraham and his descendants both natural and spiritual while Gentiles enjoy only the spiritual blessings. Gentiles do not come from Abraham's natural seed. He is not the father of Gentiles in the natural.
The Bible declares Gentiles grafted into the same holy root that Israel has.
Again, you change the Scripture. It says that Gentiles are grafted in with the natural branches and partake of the root, but they are not grafted into the root.
Rom 11:17-18 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them, and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree; (18) don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
And take heed: Do not try to usurp what God has done with regard to Israel His Bride and Church or He will not spare thee.

19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Rom. 11:19–21.
 
The Covenant was made to Abraham the person and to his seed (more persons.) Abraham is not the father of Gentiles in the flesh so although the Covenant was fulfilled in ONE Seed (Christ) who hails from the tribe of Judah the Covenant is finally with Jesus who is not Gentile but Jewish and the end of all covenants God made to His Bride Israel.
Abraham had another son named Ishmael and Ishmael had twelve sons. Jacob had Esau, too. Since nations and kings would come from Abraham's seed show me a Scripture that says Gentiles are the seed of the physical Abraham. Where does it say that the covenant was made with Gentiles since the Promise was to Abraham's seed and Gentiles are not His seed and God made no covenant with Gentiles.

God made no covenant with Gentiles.
Gentiles are enjoying the blessings of Christ who is the Promised Seed of Abraham, but Jesus is not Gentile. He is Jewish and God made no covenant with Gentiles.
But Gentiles are trying so hard to usurp that covenant and say that the covenant is with Gentiles because through Abraham's Seed who is Christ, we are now Abraham's seed. Yes, but in the spirit. But God made no covenant with Gentiles in the natural or in the spirit. It is all from the Abrahamic Covenant and that covenant was made to a Hebrew who is great-grandfather of the Jewish people. And no Gentiles are the natural seed of Abraham. He is not the natural father of Gentiles.

The New Covenant is a fulfillment of the Old Covenant God made with Abraham.
But God made no covenant with Gentiles.
Gentiles are grafted in with the natural branches and are not the natural branches themselves. Israel is the natural Olive tree and Bride of Christ.
Gentiles are grafted in with the NATURAL branches.
Jesus is the mediator of the new covenant between God and mankind.
 
Jesus is the mediator of the new covenant between God and mankind.
Jesus is the Mediator of a New Covenant with Israel, not all mankind.
Jesus is the fulfillment of the covenant God made with Abraham and his seed (descendants) and Jesus is of his descendants. God made covenant with Abraham the Hebrew and through his descendants with Isaac, Jacob, Jacob's twelve sons and their descendants. It is a "Jewish" covenant. Gentiles are grafted in with the natural branches but they are not the natural branches.
God made no covenant with Gentiles. They are enjoying the spiritual aspect of the blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant God made with Abraham the person. Thus, while Gentiles enjoy the spiritual aspect of the Abrahamic Covenant, Abraham and his descendants enjoy the natural and spiritual aspect of this covenant.
Israel is the Bride of Christ. Israel will be at the Marriage Supper through Covenant. Gentiles will be there through invitation.

I greatly disagree with you.
 
I greatly disagree with you.
Yes, I'm sure you do. Gentiles through the centuries have bastardized the Scripture and Hellenized it to where they think they are the branches and Jews are grafted in, and that Jesus is a Gentile Messiah.
Interesting since God made no covenant with Gentiles.
At the Marriage Supper Israel will be there through covenant as Bride of Christ.
Gentiles will be there by invitation.

And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
Mt 22:1–14.

Israel wouldn't come to their own wedding. So, God sent His messengers to go get Gentiles and invited them to the wedding.
Israel and the Gentile Church may go whoring around and loving the unsaved which is forbidden by God but God is faithful and will keep all His covenant He's made with His Bride Israel.
But God made no covenant with Gentiles.

But God made no covenant with Gentiles.
Jesus is the mediator between God and man.
For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,

The circumcision of the new covenant is inward not outward on the heart of the believer by the Spirit of Christ. And has no boundaries that is male and female Jew and gentile.

Those who are born of God are those who God calls His children.
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
Those that reject the Son don't have the Father either.
No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also..

So Gentiles have Sonship, the same inward circumcision of the Spirit on their hearts and Jesus is their mediator and the same promises/blessings from God received in like manner by Faith in the Son through Gods grace. If you don't want to call that the same covenant relationship as those who believers were outwardly circumcised from Israel that's fine with me but I disagree. Rejection of the Son also brings the same curses for all. The wrath of God remains on them.
The same blessings and curses for all. Yet not tied to the theocracy of Israel which was disbanded as Jesus prophesied the consequences for rejecting Him that is their house is left desolate.

That's true but the Covenant God made was with Abraham the person. God made no covenant with any Gentile person.

Abraham received the covenant with God both naturally and spiritually.
Gentiles enjoy the blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant but not the covenant naturally. Abraham and his descendants (Isaac, Jacob, the twelve sons and their descendants) have covenant with God in which the covenant is to the people that would become the children of Israel. The covenant culminated in the ONE Seed that would come (Christ) in which all the Promises would be fulfilled.
Jesus is Israel's Messiahs' human name. Christ, or Messiah, is His title and it means "anointed." Thus, through Christ the spiritual blessings to Abraham are fulfilled so that God can save Israel through the Promised Holy Spirit.
God's covenant with Abraham is to a person but God has made no similar or any otherwise covenant with any Gentile people. The whole covenant begins with Israel, is interrupted by Gentiles, and concludes with Israel.
Those who are born of God are those who God calls His children.
God calls Israel His son. Gentiles are adopted.
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
Those that reject the Son don't have the Father either.
No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also..
When all is said and done then that statement will be realized. Until then, God is bringing in Gentiles to Himself through Christ who is the fulfillment of both the natural and spiritual aspects of the Abraham Covenant. As King He will have the land and the subjects and all power and authority and will rule this world and the universe from Jerusalem, Israel.

Show me a covenant in Scripture is which God says the following thus establishing a covenant:

7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. Gen. 17:7.

There is none. Gentiles are grafted in 'after the fact' and receive the BLESSINGS of Abraham but not the covenant per se as God has made no covenant with Gentiles.
Yet not tied to the theocracy of Israel which was disbanded as Jesus prophesied the consequences for rejecting Him that is their house is left desolate.
Before Jesus ascended his disciples asked Him:

6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel Acts 1:5–6.

For 40 days before Jesus ascended, He did this:

3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: Acts 1:3.

Jesus was Israel's long-awaited promised Redeemer and King. Through Him He would eventually united both the northern and southern kingdoms in Himself thus making two into one. He will gather Gentiles and graft them into the natural branches and make these two into one.
Everyone in Israel right up to the time of Jesus' arrest received Him as Israel's Messiah and King. They wanted to take Him by force and MAKE Him King. That's the only thing on their minds and on their lips as the disciples' question of restoring the kingdom to Israel reveals.

Their "house" (Temple) is left desolate because Christ is not in it, not because Israel rejected Him. But whether Jews or Gentile believers commit whoredom and practice idol-worship and witchcraft and break their vows of chastity and faithfulness, God is faithful and will keep ALL promises made to Israel.
One day the Times of the Gentiles will end, and God will turn His full attention back to Israel and bring her back to Himself and He will do this through the preaching of the two witnesses of Revelation and the Holy Spirit and their Law, Psalms, and Prophets: The Old Testament. And then all Israel shall be saved.
Israel is God's Bride.
Israel is God's Church.
At the Marriage Supper Israel will be there through covenant.
Gentiles will be there through invitation.

The new covenant is not the same as the original covenant. AND again the blessings and curses are exactly the same for all people of all nations. I call that a new covenant and it is from God not man. (God to mankind) The "good" news of the gospel message.

Serving God in the new way of the Sprit not in the old way of the written code.

But 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.

But you were never under the Law nor part of the Abrahamic Covenant God made with HIM. You were outside the covenant without God and without hope.

The circumcision of the tables of the 'heart' and God putting His Law in their inward parts is a Promise given to the house of Israel in Jer. 31.
It is part of the Abrahamic Covenant and the blessings God had in store for them at the appointed time.
Christ was the culmination of all promises of God given in the several covenants God made with His people (Abraham, Moses, David, Jeremiah, Isaiah, etc.) and Christ came as part of those covenants strictly and solely to the lost sheep of the House of Israel. When you come to see the Jewishness of God's covenant being played out in the Second Covenant, I would expect your understanding of this "so-great salvation" grow exponentially.

I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, 2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. 3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: 4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
Rom. 9:1–4.

If you stop struggling against God as a Gentile trying to usurp the covenants God made with the Hebrews/Jews to make them your own as though God made covenant with Gentiles and just accept and even study going forward with this knowledge in mind, I believe you will see God in a truer light and come to understand that your salvation is of God and of the Jews.
I, myself, have believed myself Gentile and not Jewish but some things have been nagging at my mind about something that entered it some weeks ago as I dwelt on the Lord's salvation. I'm not ready to post these thoughts unless I can support it through Scripture, and to be quite honest I think I can with Scripture, history, and reason, but of course there will be doubters.
 
The circumcision of the tables of the 'heart' and God putting His Law in their inward parts is a Promise given to the house of Israel in Jer. 31.
It is part of the Abrahamic Covenant and the blessings God had in store for them at the appointed time.
Christ was the culmination of all promises of God given in the several covenants God made with His people (Abraham, Moses, David, Jeremiah, Isaiah, etc.) and Christ came as part of those covenants strictly and solely to the lost sheep of the House of Israel. When you come to see the Jewishness of God's covenant being played out in the Second Covenant, I would expect your understanding of this "so-great salvation" grow exponentially.

If the new covenant wasn't introduced by the blood of Jesus whose blood was it introduced by?
 
Jesus did establish the new covenant in His blood and through Him Gods words to Abraham are fulfilled that is he shall become the Father of many nations.

If you belong to Jesus you are Abrahams seed and heirs according to the promise.
I understand what Paul is saying.
But there are still aspects of the Abrahamic Covenant that still need fulfillment.
The Galatian epistle from which you quote was written to Jews.
The writings of the New Testament were not written to Gentiles but to Jews.
Paul describes many things of Jewish history, principles, culture, language, covenants, promises, practices, and Jewish concepts and he writes these things as though his readers are Jewish and would immediately understand what he was referencing. Gentiles were ignorant of these things if there were any Gentile believers in these churches throughout Asia Minor in these Gentile cities. They were dumb to the things of God and couldn't tell you anything concrete about Jewish customs and the like let alone the covenants. Let's say you are Jewish by birth. Now try to read it like a Jew would with a Jewish mind-set.

19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Gal. 3:19–29.

Paul is not speaking to Gentiles and that as a Gentile Christian that if you are Christ's, you are also Abraham's seed. Paul is making the connection between the Abrahamic Covenant and the Mosaic Law (which was a middle wall partition separating Jews from Gentiles) and Jesus Christ, Israel's Redeemer and Messiah and King.
Gentiles would have no foundational understanding of Jewish Law, covenants, promises, practices, principles, nothing. But Paul writes to these people in Asia Minor as though they are steeped in Jewish history, Law, promises, covenants, etc.
If these were Gentiles Paul was writing to (and the most Paul stayed in one place was up to 18 months, he would still have to use 'baby-language' to Gentiles who know nothing about Judaism. But Paul writes to a people that are Jews and have intimate knowledge of his subject matter and the language he uses in the communication of Jewish thought.
 
Jesus did establish the new covenant in His blood and through Him Gods words to Abraham are fulfilled that is he shall become the Father of many nations.
Abraham had another son named Ishmael and he received the blessings of Abrahamic Covenant, but he was the child of the bondwoman, and the promise went through Isaac. Rebekah had two sons also. One was Esau the other Jacob. The Abrahamic Covenant went through Jacob whom God changed his name to Israel.
Since both Ishmael and Esau received blessings from God who's to say that it is their descendants that are not the 'nations' God said would come from Abraham's loins. As a matter of fact, I believe this is the case. Gentiles do not come from the loins of Abraham. Gentiles come from the two sons of Noah, Ham and Japheth, but the covenants went through Shem. This is the family line God has preserved in order to realize His covenants and to birth Israel's Messiah.
If you belong to Jesus you are Abrahams seed and heirs according to the promise.
First, Paul was writing to Jewish believers in Christ in his 'circular' letter to the churches in Asia Minor. The Jewishness of his epistles are clearly seen in his referencing the Abrahamic and Mosaic and Davidic Covenants, the prophecies of God's prophets to Israel, Jewish customs and culture, Jewish principles and practices. The most he stayed in one place was approximately 18 months, surely not enough time to educate Gentiles in the things he addresses in his epistles. Paul writes as though the readers are Jewish and have an extensive knowledge about Judaism.
Even the saying, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus" (Gal. 3:28) he is referencing the prayer of Jewish priests who thank God they were not born a Gentile, or a slave, or a woman (sorry ladies), but as you see Paul destroys that philosophy of belief in one sentence.
The whole of the New Testament, the Second Covenant was written to Hebrews/Jews.
Read it in this context to come to the knowledge of the truth.
 
If the new covenant wasn't introduced by the blood of Jesus whose blood was it introduced by?
The New Covenant, which is the Old Covenant, was introduced in the Garden of Eden.
Genesis 3:21.
And was fulfilled by Christ.
A long line of family descendants that God preserved and defended and protected to bring about the birth of His Son as the culmination of all promises God made with His people the Hebrews/Jews.
Adam, Abel, Seth, Lamech, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Josiah, Jephthah, David, and finally Christ. A long family line of descendants separated from Gentiles.

The new covenant is not the old covenant hence "new" and much was stated in regard to the more perfect blood sacrifice of Christ vs the blood of animals.

God stated it would be the same.
Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will make new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when qI took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, rthough I was their husband, declares the LORD. 33 sFor this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

No longer shall they teach one another or say to each other, “Know the Lord,” for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord, for I will forgive their iniquity and remember their sin no more.

Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

How God writes this covenant on the hearts of those He call His children and how they know Him is through Jesus Christ. Just as us all that are found in Him.

All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Are you born into the House of Israel? I think not. Gentiles do not come from the loins of Abraham. They come from the sons of Noah named Ham and Japheth. But Shem was separated unto God for the covenants He was soon to enter in with the Hebrew/Jewish people through Abraham the Hebrew.
So, if you're not born into the House of Israel then this covenant doesn't include you. It includes the House of Israel.
No longer shall they teach one another or say to each other, “Know the Lord,” for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord, for I will forgive their iniquity and remember their sin no more.
God is speaking to Israel, and you're not born into the House of Israel.
Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
Yes, sent to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.
Gentiles come later. Several decades later from the time Jesus said this and until then and while the Temple was still standing the "ism" of Judaism remains.

And Jesus Christ was revealed to Israel:

31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. Jn 1:30–31.

Sent from God to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.

God has made Abraham a Father of many nations are those all his biological descendants?. God has given the right for those who received Christ and believed in His name to be called the children of God.
The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

So the children of God are not in any covenant relationship with the one who decreed such?
