God's plan of redemption is like a train on a railway line. We either jump on board or miss out. He didn't introduce the Gospel as a detour. He didn't build His Church as a replacement of His promises to Israel. The Gospel isn't a delay in God's plans for Israel. The Gospel embarked directly from the Law and the Prophets and it's full steam ahead - we either jump on board or we don't.
God had one ultimate plan in mind since before the Law was ever given - before He even chose the house of Israel. And that plan was to save all nations through Abraham's son Jesus, through faith, without the Law.
That's a plan which, when it came, the Jews didn't all jump onboard with. But many did. And many Gentiles are jumping on board, just as God promised Abraham. All nations. Without the Law.
