Thank you for a well voiced placement of your present thoughts on the time of the Gentiles being complete. But there are key issues that have to be made clear so that man's distortions of God that the Book of the Bible make clear are held in consideration. Jeremiah 8:8 is clearly being ignored, or even added to, in an effort to accept the Jewish re-writing of the Old Books of the Temple. This is a consideration I did not see in your comment.
The Jew's in the time of Yeshua (Jesus), were sure of the god of their own heart (The god they are described as serving within the Bible it's self.) being God Almighty, even though the profits and the Lord Himself, told them they did not know God's heart. The more Christian that come to understand the truths = (The pouring out of one's self for others) without the traditions of man = (The acceptations to God's heart that allows for the changing of His words) the greater the wave of blessings that will encompass them! The river of blessings will have an ocean of followers being blessed and treating each other so much better then the world, that the world becomes amazed, giving the glory of it to Yhvh (God).
Put simply the Jew's and the Christian have reached the same end, but to hate is simply nothing to do with God, but simply displays a hold we still permit Satan. Just a hypothetical question for you here: If you as a god, caused a people to suffer for their lack of you in their lives, that the world might have a better understanding of you, would you hold them in a favorable light, in the day of accountability?

By comparing scripture and history, this is what I think the age of the gentiles is from what I imagine God's point of view is. There is a lot of man sort of thinking in this, it is something to think about and put what ever scripture could apply to it. Please don't discard my reasoning without thinking about it, nor say that scripture passages back up my conclusions so you must accept my thinking.
As soon as the gentiles took over leadership of the Christian church, after the Bar Kokhba Revolt in 132 AD, they began teaching a sort of anti Semitism. It wasn't scripture based, but they used scripture. They even used the book of Romans, explaining the Jew/gentile relationship in detail to back up their claims. Romans explains that we are equal in God's eyes, Jews unbelief is because they are blinded for our sakes, and that God is protecting them, these people ignored that. OT scripture says that it explains God, it is scripture. They said only Paul and the letters explained God and sometimes they didn't agree, they said. The letters were after the OT scripture, so that was the only truth. Scripture says it is all the same one God, and they agree perfectly. The gentiles said God changed, scripture said God was eternal and never changed.
Follow history until the Nicene Creed, that established Christ as God. That creed also established as law that gentiles were better than Jews. We were to have nothing to do with anything of the OT teachings that were too Jewish, so even Christian celebration were completely changed to man made ones. Jews became Christ killers. Anything of the OT that tells of God became Judinizing. No more than 15 years ago, I would have considered questioning Easter as not better than Passover to celebrate Christ as a terrible thing to do.
All this time, the time of the gentile, we have murdered Jews. Luther, a great worker for the Lord, suggested it was doing the Lord's work if we murdered a rabbi. Only recently is that looked at as God would see it.
Until recently, "Jew" was not only considered Christ killers, but leaders in people living a life devoted to God, even though they were blinded to Christ. They were not blinded to the knowledge a messiah would come, just that the messiah God sent was not the one. The scripture saying God protected them was ignored, they were only deemed enemies of Christ. Yet for many years of history, it was only the Jews that showed the world what living for God was like, and made them want to copy that. Read middle age history and you will see.
Ever since God separated Abraham and gave him and his descendants the commission to show God to us, God has also made them a special people. It isn't that they are more important, it is a sort of thank you to them from God.
These are the last days. God sent the deep sea scrolls that opened up OT understanding. God is showing us prophecy coming true for the first time in 2,000 years. There are churches that announce that they believe God shows Himself in the OT, and we should listen, for the first time. They say to understand Christ, we first need to understand the OT foundations Christ used to build on. These churches are treated in the same way Christ was treated, saying it is not so, we should only be against anything Jewish. The age of the gentile is coming to an end, the ago of God is coming.
Scripture says that Jerusalem will be a center for all of this. That Jews will learn of Christ. I trust scripture, but how God will bring this about is beyond anything I can imagine. Jews are mostly not God fearing, today!!
