How do we know that God's covenant with Israel is still relevant?

Answered in 1 source

God's covenant with Israel remains relevant as it fulfills His promises and demonstrates His faithfulness throughout biblical history.

The relevance of God's covenant with Israel is maintained through the continuity of His promises, seen in both the historical context and their fulfillment in Christ. God's commitment to Israel, as expressed in Exodus 6:5-8, shows that He is faithful to His covenant even when Israel falters. The transition from the Old Covenant, represented through circumcision and the Passover, to the New Covenant in Christ does not negate God's past promises but rather fulfills them (Jeremiah 31:31-34). The essence of the covenant remains manifested in the spiritual realities experienced by believers today, as they are united with Christ, the true Israel, and partake in the blessings promised to Abraham’s offspring. This highlights God's unwavering plan and purpose across generations.
