    There are Gospel passages which explicitly and in no uncertain terms says Christ came in part specifically for the Gentiles, planned, known ahead of time. And, "His own received Him not." But even though "His own" (Israel) "received Him not," nonetheless still, there were those who did receive...

    The Gospel of the Kingdom and the plot twist.

    John 1 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
