Is the new covenant God's final covenant with Israel and is it still future?
Yes. This covenant is the final covenant God gives to the nation of Israel, and it is still future. Israel is presently set aside and spiritually blinded, but God is not through with them. He will yet pick up where He left off, and they will one day enjoy this covenant promise.
Les explains that Israel remains God's covenant people even though the nation is currently set aside and spiritually blinded in unbelief. Its government in Jerusalem is secular, not specially righteous, and is under the God of this world just like other nations. But God is not finished with Israel; He will pick up where He left off. Les ties this to the covenant promises leading to Jeremiah 31, calling it pretty much the final covenant God gives to Israel. It is as yet future, not appropriate to place Israel under it tonight, but they will one day enjoy it.
