Our souls will live on after our physical bodies die. The question is where will they spend the rest of eternity. Your choice to accept or reject Christ death on the cross for your sins will determine that..Jesus said that he only came for the Jews. So how will you ever be able to get on his wagon?
I am happy to explain why salvation is for all.
On the verse you are quoting from was God testing wither the lady from the gentile nation actually had faith and he rewarded her for her faith by healing her daughter. (Mt 15:21-28)
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (underlined added)
John 10:6 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. (this is Jesus speaking metaphorically about the other sheep (gentiles)
Read acts 10 Where God says simultaneously that you can eat what was once unclean and that the gentiles are included in God's plan for salvation.
It was always a plan to save all of man kind. There is a prophesy about this in Gen. 3:15
I am on the bandwagon because Christ died for my sins and I gladly accept His death on the cross for my justification. God is a good God and died for sinner like you and me.
