You answered your own question.
You are good enough. But when you make up your own religion, you get to make up your own rules to go with it.

You are not one of them, so you can have a personal relationship with Jesus. Most of Jews do not believe that Jesus is a messiah. If you were born as a Jew, you wouldn't have much of a chance to come to Jesus in personal relationship. Albeit God has chosen Jews to be his people, he equally loves all the tribes on the Earth and that's the beauty of his infinite love. May the lord be with you.

Jews WERE, the chosen ones. Your right.
Old Testament Jews are just that. They live the old Testament Teachings. They are not believer's that accept the TRUTH that Jesus is THE CHRIST, THE MESSIAH. Old Testament Jews are waitng for the Messiah's FIRST coming. What Jews think is the FIRST coming, is actually the 2nd coming. The Rapture.
New Testament Jews, believe this. {Jews WERE the chosen people, in the Old Testament. In the Old testament, Jews were the only people that could go to heaven. IT'S THE "NEW TESTAMENT JEWS" THAT ARE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE NOW. JESUS CAME TO FULFILL THE LAW OF MOSES. THE CHRISTIAN AGE STARTED ACTS.CH.2:38 THE DAY OF PENTACOST. "THE HOLY SPIRIT FELL UPON THEM". JESUS SAID: I WILL SEND "THE HELPER".
TODAY, ISRAEL IS THE CHOSEN LAND,{ SPIRITUAL JERUSALEM} ONLY "SPIRITUAL JEWS" CAN INHERIT THE NEW SPIIRITUAL KINGDOM} THROUGH THE SPIRITUAL MESSIAH, JESUS CHRIST.
JESUS CHRIST'S FULFILLMENT OF THE LAW OF MOSES, BECAME EFFECTIVE AT ACTS.CH.2 NOW. "ALL PEOPLE" OF EVERY RACE, CAN GO T0O HEAVEN BECAUSE WE ARE ALL "SPIRITUAL JEWS THROUGH CHRIST".
ONLY "SPIRITUAL JEWS" WILL GO TO HEAVEN. THATS "ANYONE" WHO ACCEPTS JESUS CHRIST AS THEY'RE SAVIOR.
Christians are the only New Testament Jews. (Spirtual Jews) through Christ. Gal. ch.3:27-29

Why do muslims think they are supreme, why do christians think they are supreme, why do sikhs, and jews, and confucists, and daoists, and buddhists? Because that makes them feel good. That's what the Torah tells them. Although i know you didn't write this in an offensive way... Get off the jews' backs. The Egyptians made the slaves, the Spaniards killed them off, the Germans gassed, burned, shot, and tortured them in all types of ways, and now they are surrounded by millions of crazy muslims that want to kill them. The Jews got their land, and they will fight to the last man defending it. so it's really out of our hands. You can convert, then you will practice Judaism, and you can move to the promised land.

JEws are no longer the legitimate Jews since they rejected Christ. There are Spiritual Jews or the Messianic Jews, a person or Christian becomes one, when he or she has accepted truth about Christ, so that he or she can be grafted in as part of the spiritual Israel, or the people of God.

the chosen ones doesnt mean the special ones. it simply means they were the ones given the torah. and jewish tradition says they were the last choice - G-d picked everybody else first, only the lowly jews would accept the torah.
every person, jew or gentile, is special to G-d. this is one of the reasons why judaism discourages conversions. non-jews get into heaven (Gan Eden) a lot easier than jews do, so its doing a disservice to them to convert them.

The Jews are His physical descendants and Christians are His spiritual descendants. We ALL can be His spiritual descendants if we just believe in Him. Abraham sent his son Ishmael out to the desert, but some of his descendants (the arabs & some muslims) are coming back to God!

You were not born a Jew because of your parents religion. But Judaism is open to anyone, you do not have to be born a Jew, it is your choice.

They are the 'chosen ones' because Jesus is Jewish, But all who believe he died for your sins will enter into heaven~which is confusing since Jewish ppl don't believe this!

Everyone is a "Chosen One"
All depends on who you ask.
