Now that the civil state of Israel is over and done with forever is it accurate to labels nations as "Christian" or not?

Also, the whole "Christendom" concept... is it Biblical?
Can we "covenant nationally with God as did Israel of old" did?

Those days ended at 70 AD, right? No such covenant CAN be done now, right?

No.
Hebrews 13:14 "For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come."
But if we did the only one I want to be a part of is a Cromwellian state that gives me the power to take the turkey out of your oven on Christmas day.

Citing a verse at random proves nothing; that interpretation of the verse causes Scripture to contradict Scripture. Psalm 2 forever settles the question of whether or not there should be a Christian state. The king of kings and Lord of lords demands it.
No.

Read the chapter. The kings of the earth must "kiss the Son, lest He be angry". The political pluralist argument reminds me of the Arminian who cites John 3:16 but ignores John 10 and 17 - the argument sounds plausible, until you read other Scriptures.

I've read it. I would simply point out that there are of course arguments against your interpretation of Psalm 2 just as much as there are arguments against Daniel Kok's (implicit) interpretation of Hebrews 13:14. And if those two interpretations of those two passages contradict each other, then of course it needs to be asked which one is being wrongly interpreted. And of course that's where the exegetical and systematic issues need to be fleshed out - and I wanted to clarify that simply mentioning the chapter and assuming your interpretation of it right after accusing Daniel of doing the exact same thing with the verse didn't consistently offer anything in that regard.

1 Peter 2:8-9
9But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

In terms of Vosian redemptive-history, no.
Vos spoke of the Christianisation of the nations. You must be referring to the modern R-H misappropriation of Vos.
Strictly speaking, these are corporate vows to God, not covenants with God. Only God can institute a covenant with man. Men do not institute covenants with God. Don't forget you covenant theology.
