This question is based on a false assumption. According to the Torah, Jews were chosen to show the world how man may live righteously by example. This did not require Jews to actively try to convert non-Jews to Judaism. Although Jews actively sought converts up to approximately 2100 years ago, not everyone had/s to become Jewish. From the Jewish perspective, it's far easier for non-Jews to live a righteous life than it is for Jews to.

What is a summary of the Jews and Gentiles?
It depends on what you are asking. The New Testament has many verses that discuss the Jews and the gentiles. The early church was comprised of some pagans and a number of Jews who had come to believe that Jesus was the messiah. There were some very real questions in those early days about whether only Jewish believers (Hebrew-Christians) were the authentic members of the church, and whether the gentiles would be saved. Interestingly, in other verses, addressed to Jews who did not accept Jesus, the question was whether a person who remained Jewish and did not accept Jesus could be a member of the new Christian faith. (The conclusion of the church was that they could not; believing in Jesus was essential to salvation, and anyone who did not accept him would not be saved.) The church ultimately rejected Jewish customs and practices like keeping kosher or being circumcised, and moved away from its Jewish roots; it instead decided that it would reach out to the gentiles, since most Jews did not seem eager to embrace the new Christian faith. Thus, there is a verse in Acts 11:17-19, which explains, "So if God gave them [the gentiles] the same gift as those of us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ who was I to think that I could stand in god's way?" When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, even to the Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life."

What is the difference between Christians and gentiles?
Generally speaking gentiles are people that are not Jewish. However that is with the exception of some Jews that are also Christians. Normally, in the New Testament at least, the contrast is made between Jews (God's chosen people) and Gentiles (Non-Jews). Most Christians are in fact Gentiles at the same time, so the two groups are not exclusive. The same would apply to Jewish Christians. Of course it must not be forgotten that many Gentiles are also not Christian and so there would be a difference in terms of them accepting or not accepting Jesus Christ.

What do you learn about God in Romans chapter 3?
Several things: The Jews are not forgotten but highly praised as keepers of the 'oracles of God' or His Old Testament; but most importantly:Romans 3:27-30New King James Version (NKJV)Boasting Excluded27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. 29 Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.
