Down through the centuries there have been many people who are followers of Jesus, who have preached to both Jews and Gentiles. In The Bible we have the apostle Peter, who usually preached to Jews, but in Acts 10:34-43 he preached to a Gentile family of a Roman soldier, Cornelius. Also in Acts 8:26-40 we see the account of Philip, known as the evangelist in later times, preaching to the Ethiopian. Then of coarse the Apostle Paul preached to Jews and Gentiles as we see in his epistles in the Bible.

What aspects of Jesus message were unique?
All aspects of Jesus' message are unique. Moses, in the Old Testament, preached the law, but Jesus preached grace and truth and the kingdom of heaven in the New Testament. This had never been done before. Also, the Israelites believed that since theywere God's chosen people, this meant that all non-jews {or Gentiles} were just worthless dogs, and then Jesus comes along and offers salvation to those horrible Gentiles of all people!Acts 28:28-29 (KJV)Acts 28 (v.28) Be it known therefore unto you [that is, jews], that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it. (v.29) And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

Where all Christians originaly Jewish?
No. Jesus, while a Jew himself, explicitly taught that his New Gospel did not require one to be a Jew. Thus, to be a follower of Jesus' teaching, one did not have to first be a Jew. In fact, the vast majority of converts to the new Christianity were Gentiles (i.e. non-Jews).
How did the Jews treat gentiles in the time of jesus?
The role of the gentiles was a pretty messed up job. From my research, THey were basically pedophiles, Jesus did not like their role and personally, I don't think anyone nowadays would either. So even though the bible doesn't mention about the fact that normal peasants would be sexually bothered and in some rare cases, raped to death, The Gentiles are a very bad religion.
Are all Jews Christians?
Yes, although Jesus did preach that he had come to save all people and the ministry of St Paul initiated the spread of Christianity to non Jewish peoples in a major way. Peter was the first to bring the Gospel to the gentile Cornelius in Acts 10.Yes, Jesus was Jewish and his Apostles were definitely the first Christians and were also Jewish. Jesus sent the Apostle to preach only to the "lost sheep of the house of Israel" and commanded them "Go not into the way of the Gentiles, ....." Mark 10:5-6.It was Paul of Tarsus, who never walked with Jesus that broke his commandment and preached it to the Gentiles that resulted in present day Christianity.
