Abraham is the father of the faithful, you may decide if that includes you or not.

And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise. (Galatians 3:29)​

The word "seed" implies offspring.
Those Gentiles had a hope as shown in Galatians 3:29 KJV unlike the Gentiles we are likened to, who in time past had no hope and were without God in the world and why according to Ephesians 2:11-12 KJV. You really need to 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV.

Are we living today as Gentiles who have no hope and are without God? Is that what Paul said?

The point is that if we were gentiles who in time past had no hope and were without God in the world being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, then we could not have been the Gentiles that were heirs according to the promise of Galatians 3:29 KJV. They are heirs according to the promise and we are fellowheirs and of the same Body with them by the gospel (Ephesians 3:6 KJV) which was a mystery unsearchable in the OT and hid in God (Ephesians 3:1-9 KJV). We must 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV!

Does the Abrahamic covenant include all Gentiles, past, present, and future?

Also how do you know that we typologically are Gentiles?

Nope! Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Paul said, "And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, 'In you all the nations shall be blessed.'" (Galatians 3:8)

When Paul said all the nations shall be blessed, which nations are you claiming he left out?

We are not those Gentiles. We were at that time Ephesians 2:11-12 KJV. We have been over this. Israel had fallen, diminished and was cast away before it was revealed that Gentiles such as we had hope (Ephesians 2:13 KJV, Ephesians 3:1-9 KJV).

Paul said just the opposite, "God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew." (Romans 11:2)

Would you cast away your firstborn son?

Paul was speaking of a remnant according to the election of grace at that present time!

Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Paul had yet to spill the beans that he was going to be sent to Gentiles such as we (2 Corinthians 12:1-6 KJV) as he was still gathering the remnant into the body!

Nothing has changed, Gentiles are still being called to become part of the Israel of God in which ethnic distinctions are not made.
