>> “The Gentile Disadvantage: “Gentiles”; “Uncircumcised”, “Without Christ”, “Aliens from Israel”; “Strangers from the covenants”; “Without God”; “Having no hope”. All of these were Gentile's state before God. And this is true throughout the OT, Matt. Mark Luke John and the beginning of Acts, up until that middle wall of partition that was separating us was taken down, by God.” <<

.
Not so!

Isa.56

[1] Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
[2] Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
[3] Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
[4] For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
[5] Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
[6] Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
[7] Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people
.
[8] The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
Without hope?

No!

Isaeah 56: [6] Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; [7] Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people. [8] The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.<<

And so it shall be after the tribulation. Please show us where any of those were included prior to Christ’s death and resurrection.

It is absolutely so. IF you believe that Eph. 2:11,12 are the words of the Holy Spirit through Paul. That is EXACTLY what God says about the Gentiles, editor. Read it again. HE said it, not me. You just have to find out when the middle wall of partition was removed, don't you? It's there. Written in big, bold God writing. But I'll let you search for it before I give it to you.

BTW: There were TWO ways Gentiles could gain their salvation before the wall was taken down. Do you know what they were?
