Jesus said salvation is of the Jews.?

Why are the Jews so against Christianity? What has Christianity done for the Jews? Or should that be TO the Jews?

True, the true Christian will love Israel. The trouble has been with the many false and ignorant Christians throught the ages. The most powerful anti-Semites in the early centuries were the Catholic church.

Constantine the Great (?) (even though he's one of my ancestors, he's not one of my favorites) ordered that all semblance of Jewish worship be removed from Christian worship. That's when Passover was changed to Easter, to celebrate the rebirth of the pagan goddess of fertility. That's when Yom Kippur and God's other Holy Days were closed to Christians and Christmas was instituted, to celebrate the rebirth of the pagan god Mithras at the beginning of the winter when the days started getting longer.

But I digress. Our job today is, as Paul said, to make the Jews jealous by our love for and obedience to God.

Christians have told the Jews that they are wrong, have tried to forcefully convert them. Is this any way to make them jealous?

We must overcome our hateful past and show them in word and deed that we would rather be like them, because they gave us the Bible and kept it true through 3500 years. They must be our standard. Don't worry that they don't believe that Yeshua is the Messiah. That's not our problem. God will take care of them, just as he will take care of us.

COMMENT: Julia D, would you lump the likes of Corrie Ten Boom and Oskar Schindler into your comment, "True Christians do not 'love the Jewish people'"? You are generalizing just like some Christians do when they say, "The Jews killed Christ." Well, it WASN'T "The Jews" who killed Yeshua. It was the political Saducees who convinced the Romans that he was there to take over the reign of Jerusalem and Rome from them.

COMMENT: Michael W is your daddy, below, shows us a link to one of the most anti-Semitic pages I have seen. It's all Israel's fault. The Palestinians can do no wrong and are being wronged. Got news for you, folks. There was NO SUCH THING as a Palestinian ethnic group until they initiated it after the 6-Day War in 1967. Before that, the Arabs in the "West Bank" were citizens of Jordan. The Arabs in Gaza were citizens of Egypt. But Jordan and Egypt won't take them back because it's better propaganda against Israel to leave their own people in a state of limbo.

Here ( http://www.iris.org.il/sizemaps/arabwrld.htm ) is a little perspective on Israel versus the Arab world.

1) lots of jews dont care one way or another about christianity. you can believe in whatever you want and are ok as long as you live by the 7 rules of noah.

2) if pressed for an answer many will tell you that at first christians tried to convert jews by force, torture pogroms and so on. they saw it won't work and so changed their tactics and are using the carrot instead of the stick. but the end is the same, disrespect for other people's way of life and belief by trying to convert them to christianity for whatever apocalyptic visions these christian people try to bring about.

Anna, the prophecies of the messiah were all fulfilled in Jesus Christ. But the Jewish Leaders in Jesus' day denied the one messiah that all those prophecies told about. Isaiah 53:3-5 "He was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."

This chapter goes on to say more prophecies about the messiah.

And just like the prophicy go the Jews keep on rejecting the only true messiah. Yes anyone who puts their faith in Christ, Jew or not, is saved.

Because of the Jews rejection of the messiah, God has went to the Gentiles.

Why are we against Christianity? Maybe because the Christian scriptures are blatantly anti-semitic. They falsify Judaism, slander Jews and attack Jews. And the message in theChristian scriptures have permeated through to Christianity- whether it be form the early Church Fathers with their calling Jews devil worshippers, calling synagogues brothels and places of devil worship or Martin Luther repeating the same vile accusations later- all of these statements have led to the deaths fo millions of Jews. Why on earth should we be anything but against Christianity when you get Christians adopting deceitful and fraudulent tactics to try and convert Jews? Why on earth would we be anything but against Christianity when we have "loving" Christians telling us we are doomed to burn in hell because we don't believe in Jesus?

Sorry- we will never believe in any false messiah and thus we will never be one in the name of any false messiah.

What false church was that who killed the Jews? Oh, the Catholics? Yeah, just a few million of us over the past 2000 years.

Or do you mean the Protestants? You know, the ones who broke off from the Catholic Church and began the Protestant Christian movement which just about everyone who ISNT a Catholic belongs to today? Yeah. Have a look here at what the founder of Protestantism, Martin Luther, said about and taught his followers to do to the Jews.

So, which "false church" was it you're talking about then? Since Catholics and Protestants are about all there are, and both murdered millions of Jews, I'm curious which one it is you are calling false.

True Christians do not "love the Jewish people". They believe that when the Messiah comes, Judaism will be wiped out and all Jews converted to Christianity. Ever think of it like that?

We do. We do not appreciate Christian belief that our religion will someday no longer exist.

NOR do we appreciate that Christianity believes that only 144,000 of us will be "saved".

That means that the rest of us, over 11 MILLION, will be slaughtered in a genocide that Hitler and both branches of Christianity would be envious of.

Do you not see how disgusting these beliefs are to Jews?

What if it were Native Americans who were to be wiped out except for less than 1 percent? Now do you understand how completely disgusting Christian belief is about the Jews?

No, we will not "one day be one in Yeshua". Nor are we blind. You've got the wrong guy. You believe in him because he did "miracles", not because he fulfilled even ONE of the actual Jewish prophecies - which he did not.

Look at the death, destruction, rape of the world and its indigenous peoples that the followers of your Yeshua have brought to the world for the past 2000 years.

Look at how every single one of the actual Jewish prophecies has been brought the OPPOSITE of, since him, by his followers.

The man who brings the opposite of the Jewish prophecies is known as the Anti Messiah. That is who and what your Yeshua was.

Good luck with that.

EDIT: Anna, 144,000 is what your new testament says in Revelations. Go read it.

As for "obey Yahweh" you are clearly quite ignorant about what Jews believe and do, and where Christianity got its own foundations. We Jews DO obey God. It is the Christians who do not. You turn God into a man: Idolatry. You worship that man: Idolatry. You have a messiah born of a virgin and a god: Idolatry - this comes from ancient paganism, not Judaism. You have this messiah serve as a virgin human blood sacrifice for sin for the world - Idolatry Human sacrifice is an abomination to God. No such role exists for the Messiah in Judaism. Christianity adopted it from ancient paganism. Your messiah is a man-god: Idolatry. Christianity adopted this from ancient paganism as well, not Judaism.

I suggest that you go and learn, because you CLEARLY are completely clueless about where Christianity originates, where it got its beliefs, and the differences between it and Judaism. Christianity and Judaism are absolutely nothing alike whatsoever in ANY of their foundational beliefs and doctrines, but you don't know that because you've been taught lies about Judaism and the Torah. You've been taught that the two religions are basically the same except that Jews don't believe in Jesus. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The arrogance and ignorance you display in your barking "Obey Yahweh" when between the Jews and the Christians it is ONLY the Jews who actually obey God, is breathtakingly stunning, hilarious, and ridiculous all at once.

I suggest that you begin by studying:

1. Where Christianity obtained its doctrines.

2. What the differences are from Judaism.

3. Learn what Judaism's doctrines and beliefs are.

4. Learn what the actual Jewish prophecies for the Messiah are, because you clearly have no clue.

Here are some good places to start. I really suggest that you do this, because all you're doing with posts like you made is making yourself look REALLY stupid. I mean, as in ignorant, lacking in knowledge or any idea of what Christianity and Judaism are even about.

Go here to learn about what the actual JEWISH prophecies are for the Messiah, rather than what you've been incorrectly taught by your religion.

Go here to learn about the differences between Judaism and Christianity. They are nothing alike. See my answer there:

For where Christainity actually got its doctrines and beliefs (and it wasnt Judaism), please see my answer here:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Alwft...

In those answers you will find that I posted links to Jewish websites where you will be able to further your education.

And do try to remember. You do NOT know Jewish scripture or its meanings better than Jews do. It is NOT you who are to teach the Jews, but the Jews who are to teach YOU. Period.

Remember that the next time you go barking at a Jew to "obey God". You have no clue. Until you do, I suggest that you shut your mouth and start educating yourself to save yourself further embarrassment in the future, if nothing else.

GOD GAVE HIS SON JESUS ON THE CROSS SO EVERYONE CAN GET SAVED, BUT ITS ITS THERE CHOICE WHO THEY SERVE , BUT EVERYONE HAS TO FORGIVE AND LIVE RIGHT, AND LOVE EVERYONE.AND SERVE GOD AND HIS SON.

Americans need to know the truth about jews. Check this link: http://www.ifamericansknew.org/

http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=84...

Just for you to know the truth

There have to be a purpose for life otherwise we will miss the peaceful path of happiness so we want to be just better everyday

So

Spiritually,

What is God? ,

What’s makes God as god? ,

What is God’s Power? ,

For all sort of these questions, I have very limited understanding so Let me give you the point. Well, just try to know, what’s makes God as god, the Power, isn’t it? So what the power can do? Ah? Well, It can give the ability to organise all things and it can give the ability to separate everything and most importantly, the Ability to control everything, isn’t it? Isn’t it Good? Ah? So, what I try to say here is, from my hard study and research effort with the help from god, I realized that the ability to control everything, the Power of God is gradually increased in the full amount to use so, The Power of God is always the omnipotent and existed among everything. And The God now is always the same omnipotent for us, who is organised us and we are growing towards perfection. The perfection is the final stage, not the end. And The Power of God, the Ability is the reward for us to control everything in a proper manner, like the true God of goodness. If god always perfect in perfection then there have to be beginning and end for that progress. So there is no end or beginning for all things so we cannot get anything from nothing. And

How could that be possible to be perfect in perfection always, ah…? No way the perfection of god comes first or the growth towards perfection. There is No End and there is No beginning and so the Ability is for the Love of Joy And

~ LOVE IS THE ABILITY ~

we have to lift it up little by little towards Perfection.

If you are humble, please... Pray to know the truth from true God by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit with great faith and. Good in Bad & Bad in Good so the values is most important. God gave us the rights to do what is right for you and sometimes, things can be right in your point of view but wrong in Public point of view so

Basically, just pray about it for the Good Answer and try to do the God's will first always

And

I have true testimony of true God

Please, just try to understand the fundamental...

If you think, why so much trouble and pain in this world…? Then there is only one reason, without pain, No pleasure and without pleasure, no pain. So without them, we cannot enjoy this life so always we need them in our development towards the perfection of God. So-so you use pain and pleasure instead of pain and pleasure use you. I mean the vision of your future should be clear & it have to pull you rather than you have to push so you must link a lot of pleasure in order to succeed in the Best job. When you feel strong enough link a lot of pleasure in your subconscious mind. And your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

And

It is Wonderful… wonderful nature for us by the true… God. And

we all make mistakes so it is hard to look for star in daylight. So just in faith… it is possible. Like that the faith in true God. And If you think, even expert can be wrong then you have to make the fine research in all most everything so It is hard and some time, it is impossible to achieve so Why we need inappropriate action to find the owner of higher power? SO,

So, just try to understand, because of Lack of faith in true God, we do not have the great gift of understanding of things so

Just understand this please.

All things are spiritually first, to govern by God with glory so closely, Have a look at this world of wonders of yours and then you know the truth, when you listen to your real voice and then Having a strong desire to do the best every day then stick with the best to do your best. And most importantly, try to be grateful for what you have now and try to know where you come from to have the great gift of understanding and then, have the faith to become the best winner in your life. And this is the best meaning of happy life.

And

The Low of mercy cannot rob the Low of justice so God provided the way to our salvation to overcome our sin so Jesus Christ sacrifice is much needed to return to live with God, because God is perfect in perfection so Jesus Christ is our savior to pay our punishment of our sin so-so Because of the perfect love of god for you. So God gave Jesus Christ for us ~ FOR US ~

Well,

It is the time to make the great decision.

Good luck.
