I found many are holding on to both the old and new covenants, and combining them into one. And others believe that "ethnic Hebrews or Israelis or Jews" are still under a separate covenant to us Gentiles.

They are not walking in the the simplicity that is in Christ

2 Corinthians 11:3
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

This happens when one follows those that went to seminary or bible college where books written by religious men are studied rather than studying God's Word.

Yes there were numerous covenants made in the old testament but that's all under the old testament which Jesus removed and replaced with the New Covenant where He is now the High Priest (Hebrews 10:9)

That's the primary point here is that Jesus Christ is God's new High Priest over all mankind whether they be Jew or gentile. Jesus has His own house now and anybody seeking to be in tight standing with the Father must go through Jesus Christ and walk in the New Covenant.

All other efforts to be in right standing with God are illegitimate so those trying to walk in the old covenant and keep Saturday sabbath and other such nonsense are not in right standing before the Father.

Galatians 5:4
Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

In other words, your have no rational Biblically grounded argument to offer as a cogent rebuttal.
Only extremely prejudicial diatribes.
Isa 27:13
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.

That was fulfilled at Pentecost when Assyrians and Egyptians worshiped the lord on Mt Zion in Jerusalem:

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. Acts 2:1
And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. Acts 2:5
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. Acts 2:9-11

It's like I said, you don't have a believing heart to believe what scripture actually says. You are like the unbelieving pharisees who of necessity interpret all OT prophecy to be about Israel rather than pointing to Christ and his body. This is from John Gill's commentary on that verse you quoted, which makes my point.

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
And it shall come to pass in that day,.... When the Lord is about to do the above things, and in order to it. The Talmudists (k) apply this text to the world to come, or times of the Messiah, when the ten tribes shall be returned:​
 
Does this indicate that the IRGC understands that failure to defend using ground troops is certain?



I think they understand, but the auspicious name of their pagan suicide death cult's planned counter-strategy belies the truth of where they're really going. Their plan to stop US from liberating Iran is for them to kill themselves literally. Past the just wow they're a death cult factor, really this is a sign of desperation, they're not just out of moves and technical capability and leaders, they're even running out of ideas.

 
If they join the war the destruction of their oil infrastructure and subsequent grip on power won't be inept and slow.

Yes and you used the word IF

These people are reluctant to attack their fellow moslem even when their fellow moslems are attacking them.

In the end it'll still be the moslems standing against the "infidels"
 
BREAKING: Infighting Erupts Within Iran’s Leadership Over Islamic Republic’s Direction (Live)

(UPDATE 21:58/00:58 Jerusalem Time)

LONDON/JERUSALEM/TEHRAN (Worthy News-Telegram) — Tensions within Iran’s leadership are rising as President Masoud Pezeshkian reportedly clashes with senior figures in the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) over military operations and the country’s worsening economic situation.

Sources cited by opposition-leaning broadcaster Iran International say Pezeshkian has sharply criticized the military strategy pursued by IRGC commanders, including senior figure Ahmad Vahidi.

The president is said to have warned that continued attacks in the region risk further destabilizing Iran’s economy, which is already under pressure from sanctions and internal challenges.
