The Gospel of Jesus Christ brings the nations, those of them who will, to the God of Abraham. When Gentiles embrace Jesus Christ as Lord, their faith in Him produces grace. Believe Jesus Christ and receive grace.
I do not see how the word, grace, does anything to change the Word, not if you understand Abraham was the first to receive the Gospel, and he also knew grace. So did the prophets, many of the Kings, and many simple believers. Reading the Old Testament, espeically the Writings we see time and time again people who, by faith, did live in grace.
The law actually points to Jesus Christ as do the Prophets. People, not just Jews, were waiting for Him, for others knew Salvation would come from the Jews, that is from the Tribe of Judah.
Just as Rahab recounted to the spies that she knew of the God of the Hebrews how He had saved them from Pharoah with miracles and wonders, so people knew the God of Abraham had plans for all mankind. Perhaps all Gentiles were not aware of the coming of a Savior from the Jews, but many did know and many were waiting to hear His Gospel. Do not believe me, just keep studying the Word, and the Holy Spirit will show you...
God's Arm is not shortened that He cannot save, not even by scoffers and unbelievers........

He was sent to the Jews first, and taught them the gospel, and then was crucified and resurrected and commanded those same Jews to go spread the gospel toi the ends of the earth. Pauls mystery
ephesians 3:4-6 "Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 5Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6That the Gentiles should be FELLOWHEIRS, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:"
The prophets said this all along, paul was revealing that it had been done through Jesus. The idea that One gospel is for the Jews, and then later another gospel is sent to the gentiles is false, the mystery is that the pre excluded gentiles by Law, had now been included through Christ nd the Kingdom Gospel. The gospel doesnt change, we do.
