The covenant.

Is there a new covenant symbol?

The New Covenant is a covenant that God has made with the remnant of Israel and has not been fulfilled yet, (Jeremiah 31:31-34) although it is true that the Christians enjoy many aspects included in the New Covenant the covenant was promised to the Jews. I don't know if a symbol is involved or not. The Holy Spirit of God will be given, but He is more than a symbol.
