"I have asked you before if you are born again and you didn't answer."
That's because your motives at the time seemed suspect. You were trying to set me up to knock me down, and I'm not into that. You weren't listening when I was trying to tell you that I do not subscribe to all the "WT doctrines", so I didn't see the need to answer your question at that time. Plus, I don't like it when people go around saying "I'm anointed" or "I'm born again" all the time because it's annoying and a lot of time it seems like they're trying to lord it over someone in an obnoxious way. At present, I had to answer because you openly slandered me by claiming something that I never said.
"May I ask if you encourage others to accept this new covenant or do you still feel that it is limited to 144K like WT teaches?"
I believe what the Bible teaches. Some of what the WT teaches is also what the Bible teaches. Some of what the WT teaches is not what the Bible teaches. I do not cling to a teaching just because a certain group teaches it. I cling to God's Word and the direction of His holy spirit as poured out by the Christ.
If someone is party to the new covenant, then they already know - I do not have to "encourage" them.
Galatians 4:6
"Now because you are sons, God has sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, and it cries out: “Abba, Father!”"
1 John 2:27
"And as for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to be teaching you; but the anointing from him is teaching you about all things and is true and is no lie."
The book of Leviticus was part of the Mosaic Law. The Israelites of ancient times were gathered to hear the law and to obey the principles in the Law, but not all of them were priests or kings. The king was supposed to make copies of the Law, and yet he did not take part in the direction for the priests. The priests didn't take part in the direction for the king. Not every Israelite was a priest and not every Israelite was a king, but they all could read the Law and the Prophets and learn from it.
It is the same today. We read the Hebrew Scriptures, but we are not bound by them. We know the book of Leviticus was for the priests of old, but we still learn from reading it. We read the Christian Greek Scriptures, but not all Christians are bound to follow the specific directions for those assigned to be kings/priests in the kingdom. All Christians are redeemed by the blood of the Christ, but not all are in the covenant for a kingdom, to rule as kings and priests.
When it says the 144,000 come out of all "Israel", it means the the 144,000 kings and priests come out of all Christians. Christians all have one Father, one shepherd, they are all one flock, and all will see God ("and God himself will be with them") and all will hang out with Christ ("truly you will be with me in paradise"). But not all Christians need to partake of the emblems. It isn't necessary. They are already redeemed by his blood. Their faith is shown by partaking of his teachings, by proclaiming their faith in his blood, by obeying his teachings on love free from hypocrisy.
The partaking of the emblems is symbolic of becoming one flesh with the Christ as part of his figurative bride, which will be made manifest when they are ruling with him in the kingdom. The partaking of the emblems is symbolic of being a new creation, since only those who are a new creation can "work" in the "temple" - heaven. It is not necessary to be "a new creation" to be a Christian; it is not necessary to be "a new creation" to live on earth and hang out with Christ and God when they walk the earth and eat and hang out with all of God's children here. The entire universal family will be united and get to hang out.
Just like only the priests of old partook of the installation sacrifices at the temple, so today. If a Christian is not assigned to work as a priest in the kingdom of the heavens, he or she does not need to partake of the emblems. That's why the Lord's Evening Meal will end when the 144,000 are joined to the Christ at the marriage of the Lamb. The partaking of the emblems will not go on during the 1000 years, because it's not a requirement for being a Christian.
Love is a requirement for being a Christian.
"By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves."
