Mat_15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

According to you your religion thinks the lost sheep are Gentiles...Or rather, Gentiles are the lost sheep who were mixed with the Samaritans whom Jesus called dogs...

Mat 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

According to you Jesus was sent by the Father to go only to the Gentiles (the lost sheep) but not only did Jesus NOT go to the Gentiles, he told his disciples/apostles not to either...

They all went to one city, Jerusalem, which was where the Jewish Temple was and stayed there for years...

Except for one Gentile family, those apostles/disciples never did go to the Gentiles...It was the apostle Paul whom Jesus, after he had been risen for some years told to go to the (lost sheep?) Gentiles...

The lost sheep of the House of Israel were gentile in every way. They knew not the Tanakh, nor the Messianic writings

They are the divorced wife. They are to be re-married soon. To do that they have to abandon the paganism of “christianity” and embrace the Netzer.

You divide the word into little sound bites that have no meaning out of context.

All of the Apostles went to the gentiles at various times but Paul went only to them. Paul never evangelized Judah; he couldn’t, they wanted to kill him.

Peter spent some time working with the gentile congregations in Asia Minor, and that is who he wrote to, the “strangers” he called them, because they were outsiders in the lands where they had been scattered by Shalmanesser.

You would do well to forget the sound bite attack and read the word in context.

If you read carefully in the Acts, you will notice that they differentiate between Greeks and Gentiles in that book, Why do you suppose that is?
