The gospel was to the Jews first, but seeing that they repudiated it, and judged themselves unworthy of eternal life, Paul would start preaching to the Gentiles. "Judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life" "By their conduct they had condemned themselves" (Reese p. 488). Notice that this is. judgment that unbelievers bring upon themselves. If one rejects the gospel or seeks to hinder others by their actions they are saying that they do not deserve to have the chance to be saved.
