Who do you consider in the covenant now?

Nominal Christians?

Those attending church on a somewhat regular basis?

Children and spouses of believers?

All believers are in the covenant, but not all covenant members are believers - meaning believers, the Elect, are a subset within the covenant.

When referring to Christians in the NT, are the writers referring to covenant members or believers?

(for the sake of this thread, believers refers to the "truly, regenerate")
