After Israel continues to reject the Gospel of the Kingdom, what does God do?

When Israel continues to reject the Gospel of the Kingdom, God turns from the Jewish program to the Gentiles. He does this through another apostle, who will be introduced later. The Gospel of the Kingdom fades off the scene, and the Gospel of Grace takes its place.

Les explains that the Gospel of the Kingdom was based on the covenants and Christ's earthly ministry, and it was preached to Israel in the early Acts. When Israel continued to reject it, God turned to the Gentiles through another apostle, whom we will be introduced to in chapter 9. The Gospel of the Kingdom faded off the scene, and the Gospel of Grace took its place. This is why the term 'Gospel of the Kingdom' never appears in Paul's letters.
