The key to understanding the Gospels is understanding the promises to Abraham.
Gen 12:6-7, "And Abram passed through the land to the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land. (7) And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, 'To your seed will I give this land.' So he built an altar there to the LORD who had appeared to him."
Gen 13:15-17, "for all the land which you see, I will give it to you, and to your seed forever. (16) And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can number the dust of the earth, then your descendants can also be numbered. (17) Arise, walk about the land through it's length and breadth; for I will give it to you."
Gen 12:6-7, "And Abram passed through the land to the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land. (7) And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, 'To your seed will I give this land.' So he built an altar there to the LORD who had appeared to him."
Gen 13:15-17, "for all the land which you see, I will give it to you, and to your seed forever. (16) And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can number the dust of the earth, then your descendants can also be numbered. (17) Arise, walk about the land through it's length and breadth; for I will give it to you."

Genesis 15:3-5, "And Abram said, 'Since you have given no offspring to me, one born in my house is my heir.' (4) Then behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, 'This man will not be your heir; but one who will come forth from your own body, he shall be your heir. (5) And he took him outside, and said, 'Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are
able to count them.' And He said to him, 'So shall your descendants be.' Genesis 22:17, "indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice."
able to count them.' And He said to him, 'So shall your descendants be.' Genesis 22:17, "indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice."

So we see here that there are 2 parts to the seed of Abraham and thus 2 promises. 1 part is as the stars of heaven and 1 part is as the sand or dust. It's important to understand Divine order. One way to describe this is examining an almond. If you soak the almond seed over night and the next morning you squeeze that seed between your fingers it will split in half. One side has the "head" and the other side has the receptacle. The consummation is the coming together of Christ and His bride. The physical and the spiritual, the heavens and the earth, the terrestrial and the celestial. Israel is the bride.

Christ is the head. No woman goes to bed with a man who is only a head. He must first have a body. So thus Christ must first have His body which is the gathering of the Gentiles or the fullness of the Gentiles. Abraham is the father because he has 2 promises that his seed will be both the dust of the ground (Israel, the earthly kingdom, the bride) and also the stars of the sky
(Gentiles, the spiritual kingdom, the body) Israel has the earthly blessing and the Gentiles have the celestial blessing.
(Gentiles, the spiritual kingdom, the body) Israel has the earthly blessing and the Gentiles have the celestial blessing.

When correctly apportioning/cutting the Scripture it is important to know the distinction between a few subjects so as not to have confusion by mixing.
The first mentioned in each statement below is the Circumcision Gospel (Peter's) and the latter is the Uncircumcision Gospel (Paul's).
The BRIDE (Jews) or the BODY (Gentiles),
The FORGIVEN (Jews) or the JUSTIFIED IRREVERENT (Gentiles),
The Circumcision (Jews) or the Uncircumcision (Gentiles),
Those chosen FROM (Jews), or those chosen BEFORE (Gentiles) the foundation of the world,
Jesus (the man and promise to Israel) is:
The SHEPHERD to the Sheep (Jews) Christ (the Word) is the HEAD of the Body (Gentiles),
The BORN-AGAIN (Jews) or the NEW CREATION (Gentiles),
Those who Believe BY FAITH (Jews) or those who Believe THROUGH FAITH (Gentiles),
The FLESH AND BLOOD ministry of JESUS CHRIST (Jews) given to the 12 disciples or the ASCENDED ministry of CHRIST JESUS (Gentiles) given to the apostle Paul, ** [JESUS CHRIST or CHRIST JESUS]
The TERRESTRIAL ALLOTMENT (Earthly) (Jews) of the Kingdom, or the CELESTIAL (Heavenly)(Gentiles) ALLOTMENT for those of the now faith.

The kind of salvation offered by Jesus Christ to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, which depended to some extent on their own works and national repentance, is distinct from what God is currently offering mankind in Christ Jesus. The Lost Sheep indeed needed to repent in action and in truth of their national sin of adultery (being the bride of YHVH) before He would save or deliver them from their oppressors. Their repentance to be in accord with their marriage covenant in the Wilderness. This "covenant national repentance" is distinct from the general salvation founded on Christ’s death, which affects all men (1 Timothy 4:10), and which is not out of works, but is of God’s sovereign grace (Ephesians 2:8).

Now do you see how Israel will become jealous and long for their Messiah? Both are grafted in to Christ, which is the seed or the word that the Father showed Abraham. The word is the will and intention of the Father. When Israel gets their promise in the 1000 year reign, those who were chosen from BEFORE the foundation (Gentiles), will be no longer be here on earth. The consummation doesn't happen until after that.
The Bride (Israel) will be made ready by the regeneration which is why no one has been born again yet but they will when the 1000 year reign starts. The born again component is part of Peter's Gospel and it's something Jesus ONLY spoke of when he was addressing Israel. The New creation (creature) is a component of Paul's gospel which is preached to the Gentiles. This is why the Scripture says we must rightly DIVIDE the word of truth. Some brethren of the circumcision are chosen like Paul, it depends on which gospel you are hearing from the Lord.

Jesus Christ is in accord with His flesh and blood ministry to the nation of Israel (The Bride) given to Peter, but Christ Jesus is in accord with His ascended ministry (to the Body) given to the Apostle Paul. Both are distinct but still good news to them individually. Both the Bride and the Body are Saved in the One man, but differently according to God's calling and choosing.
Paul is the only New Testament writer who uses the name, "Christ Jesus". - approximately 90 times
The Circumcision writers (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, James, Peter and Jude) use "Christ Jesus" zero times.
The Lost Sheep of the house of Israel are saved in
Jesus Christ by the keys to the Kingdom which are repentance and baptism, but those of the NOW Faith in Christ Jesus are saved in His death, burial, and
resurrection.

In Peter's Gospel they are forgiven which means their crimes are acknowledged and given a pardon. While in Paul's gospel we are justified which means the crimes are not even acknowledged AT ALL. All to display the righteousness of God. Despite the works Israel has done and strived for (although could never fully do) God would justify the Gentiles; the lawless.
God didn't want Israel to see nor hear AND understand because that was NEVER part of the plan.
2 Corinthians 3:14, "Since the time of Moses until this very day their minds remain calloused and veiled. They are kept in suspense without realizing that there is no glory left in the law."
Paul is derived from the Greek root pau, which means, "a pause." Ironically Paul's 13 letters in the Bible serve as a pause to the progression and symmetry of divine revelation to Israel.

Knowing who you are helps you understand what promise applies to you and when that promise will be fulfilled. Divine Purpose is key because it reveals DIVINE ORDER.
El Elyon (God Most High) spoke the Word, which is Genesis 1 through Genesis 2:3 (not scripture, like many believe). Revelation of The Word comes from The Father, which reveals The Son, the reality of your true identity, faith comes by hearing the Word, which brings belief, which produces behavior that fulfills His purpose in you!
El Elyon > The Word > Son > Reality > Faith > Belief > Behavior > Destiny
