This is dealing with those who survived the Tribulation, which the Church doesn't go through.

During the Tribulation people are being saved by Grace through Faith. I believe these people are correctly called Born Again Christians not Jews. They may be Jews by ethnicity, but not by Faith. Also, Gentiles are being converted during this period as well.

No, because the term Christian is very specific, it refers to the Body of Christ (Eph.1:23) which is then complete in heaven when the Tribulation is going on.

Now, Noah was a saved man by faith yet he was a Gentile.

Abel was a saved man by faith, but was a Gentile.

Lot was a saved man by faith, but a Gentile.

There will be saved Gentiles and there will be saved Jews, who are saved as they were in the Old Testament by faith, but there will be no longer Christians, since they, as Christ's body, will be with Christ in Heaven, going through the Judgement Seat of Christ (1Cor.3:11-15 Rom.14:10, 2Cor.5:10)
