It does not take a rocket scientist to know that God made promises to the Nation of Israel, and different promises to the church.
How do I go about joining the Nation of Israel?

When people get born again, they are grafted into the Israel tree.
I mean - Chinese people and Italian people. I don't hold a two peoples doctrine.When you say "Chinese and Italians" do you mean people from a specific racial group, or people who live in a certain geographic location?
There are many different races of people who now live in Italy, and there are Americans who now live in China.

We distinguish the Church by her faith and obedience in and to Christ her Leader.I mean - Chinese people and Italian people. I don't hold a two peoples doctrine.
I hold a doctrine that the Church and Israel are two distinct entities. I have proved in my post #16 it is 100% totally valid, based on Jesus's words Himself.
Read my post #16 regarding Jesus speaking in Ezekiel 39:21-29. It is totally obvious that the Church and Israel are distinguished from each other.We distinguish the Church by her faith and obedience in and to Christ her Leader.
How do we distinguish Israel?
Obviously, the church did not go into captivity among the nations for having trespassed against Jesus.
Obviously, the church believes that Jesus is God, and Lord.
Obviously, Jesus did not hide his face from the church.
Obviously, gathered into their own land is not talking about the church.
Obviously, Jesus has already poured out His spirit on the church.
Obviously, Israel is a distinct entity from the church.
What does the Day of Pentecost got to do with Ezekiel 39:21-29?Based on your logic, you and I could not be a part of the Church because we were not there on the Day of Pentecost.
Stop restating what I state as being the doctrine I hold into something else.Your "Two Entities" doctrine does not match up with what is found in scripture, no matter what we call it.

The question is irrelevant to the doctrine that "the Church and Israel are two distinct entities". God knows who is a Jew or not. God knows who is a Christian or not.You avoided the question, and post 16 doesn't answer it.

If I or anyone else were to claim to be a Jew, how would you confirm or disprove it?
Dr Macarthur actually holds to Jews and gentiles are both now saved under new Covenant, by Jesus, as no Jew cam just claim a relationship with God unless under that New covenant!Dispensationalist Dr. John MacArthur does an excellent job of presenting Isaiah chapter 53 to Orthodox Jew Ben Shapiro.
However, because of his belief in the Two Peoples of God doctrine, he failed to present the fulfillment of the New Covenant, and he did not mention Daniel chapter 9.
What he presented was well intended, but an incomplete version of the Gospel found in the Old Testament.
If we compare the Old Testament Gospel to a block of firewood, why would we split it into 3 pieces, and then present only one piece?

no Jew can just claim "a right with God" relationship with God unless under the New covenant, because of their sins.Dr Macarthur actually holds to Jews and gentiles are both now saved under new Covenant, by Jesus, as no Jew cam just claim a relationship with God unless under that New covenant!

God knows who is a Jew or not. God knows who is a Christian or not.
Ezekiel 39:17-20 is Armageddon, yes.The passage above contains the battle of Armageddon, along with Israel being taken into captivity in, and being brought back from captivity in Babylon.

He would have stated that while right now any Jew in order to get saved must receive Jesus as their Lord, just as any gentile does, there is coming a time when the Jews shall have the kingdom set up here on earth, and Jesus ruling over them as King and Lord at time of His second coming.Why then did Dr. MacArthur say that the New Covenant was for Israel in the future, during his interview with Ben Shapiro?
Can you show a video, or transcript of Dr. MacArthur's confirming what you have stated above?
