When does the New Covenant of Jeremiah 31 become a reality?
The New Covenant becomes a reality when Christ returns and sets up His Kingdom. At that time, the remnant of Jews preserved through the tribulation will see Him coming in the clouds of glory, believe in a moment, and the nation will be born spiritually in a day. Then God will put His Word and commandments in their hearts.
Les explains that this New Covenant is not something Israel chooses by itself. It is not that the Jews suddenly decide to follow God. Rather, when Christ returns and sets up His Kingdom, the remnant of Jews He kept through the tribulation period will see Him coming in the clouds of glory. They will believe in a moment. The nation of Israel will be born in a day spiritually, as Les points to Isaiah 66 and Romans 9, 10, and 11. Then the New Covenant becomes a reality, and God puts His Word and commandments in their hearts.
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
