I am still trying to work my way through all of this btw. I think the main thing that's difficult for me is replacement theology. I don't reject it entirely, I'm just not sure that the Bible carries it as far as covenant theologians do. Could someone help me out here? I believe that Old Testament saints and New Testament saints are one group who are both justified by faith in Christ. I also believe that Jewish and gentile believers are united as one man in Christ.

My thing is, it seems that God is still working with ethnic Jews in a special way to some extent. I don't mean that there are Jews who are saved apart from Christ, but that for instance God is using the predominantly gentile church to provoke the Jews to jealousy. It also seems like a literal reading of Revelation would suggest that there will be a great number of ethnic Jews who will be saved in the end-times.

I think I am probably the closest to NCT right now. I reject the idea of dispensations.
