No "new covenant" eh? God disagrees with you:

Luke 22:20
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Jeremiah 31:31
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

Hebrews 8:8
For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

Hebrews 8:13
In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

Hebrews 12:24
And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

No The word of Yehova is in perfect agreement with what I posted.

The word “new” is in every case a mistranslation, which is upheld by the context in which it is used.

Yeshua confirmed the covenant in his blood that was foretold by Jeremiah, which covenant was ancient.

Also the covenant was with the two houses of Israel who are the assembly, not with an imaginary church. Jeremiah establishes this fact well.

It has to be understood that all of our translated Bibles had to please the nobility of the time at which they were produced, all of whom wanted a church under their control rather than Yehova’s assembly.
