    Jesus was Jewish and observed the Jewish laws. However, with Christ's death and resurrection, he fulfilled the laws that were so hard to uphold. Now he gave his people a way to eternal life by pure faith. We are no longer bound by law. This was the beginning of Christianity.

    Christians are followers of the teachings of Jesus Christ or at least originally where.

    The Jews did not like what Jesus taught

    paul (greek guy) was the first to write about any jesus (greek name) - from a hallucination, and the gospels were written long after paul died.

    There is no hell or demons in Judaism. If jesus was Jewish, he would NOT have taught about hell and demons, would NOT have talked to imaginary demons, would NOT have performed exorcisms and would NOT have scared the c**p out of people for 2,000 years.

    xtianity is greek mythology with all the names changed and all the man/gods made into one man/god. jesus can't save you from a mythological hell, that is unless zeus is god.

    The term 'Christian' came about in the early first century after Jesus' death to describe those followers of his that continued to spread and teach the freedom that Jesus, the 'Christ' brought to them, and us. Thanks for asking friend.
