Why do you arbitrarily distinguish between Jew and gentile. Unbeknownst to you, there is no difference according to scripture.I studied Christianity. In Acts 15 Paul went to meet Peter and the other apostles and argued the Gentile believers should not be made to bear the burden of the law. I believe it is not necessary for Gentiles to be circumcised, sacrifice animals, or do strict Sabbath observance to be saved. I choose to study the Gospels without converting to Judaism. I have no inheritance in Israel.
The same law shall apply to the native as to the stranger who sojourns among you. Ex 12:49
For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body--whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 1 Cor 12:13
He made no distinction between us and them, for He cleansed their hearts by faith. Acts 15:9
FYI, the law never saved anyone. Only faith justifies. The law serves as a tutor which points people to Jesus who is the fulfillment of the law. Upon salvation we (the wild olive) are grafted unto Israel (the cultivated olive - NOT - the other way around.
