In the Old Testament a gentile could become an Israelite by being circumcised in the flesh.
TODAY a gentile becomes an Israelite by being circumcised in the heart.
Romans 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
Romans 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly: and circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but God.
