If you do believe that the Jews are the Chosen people of God and believe in all Prophets (except the last) and your main one being Jesus the Son of Mary, how is it you still believe so.

The Jews have killed your Prophet/Son of God/ God. The lies that they have fabricated against their Prophets are many, such as the following:

The Jews claimed that the Prophet Solomon was an apostate and that he worshipped idols, as mentioned in I Kings 11:5.

The Jews claimed that Lot – peace be upon him – drank wine and committed incest with his two daughters, as mentioned in Genesis 19:30ff.

The Jews claimed that the Prophet of Jacob committed theft, as mentioned in Genesis 31:12.

The Jews claim that the Prophet David committed adultery, as a result of which Solomon was born to him, as mentioned in II Samuel 11:4.

-- and so on.

    Thinking the Jews are still God's chosen people is faulty thinking.

    How about this: All muslims are terrorists. That's fair isn't it?

    The Hebrew scriptures are honest in stating the sins of all men, prophets included. No prophet of God was sinless until Jesus, because He was God incarnate. I know you will reject that and all claims that contradict what Muslims have been told, but I cannot help that. To answer your main question:

    history shows that God abandoned His people on several other occasions in the past, but that did not relinquish His everlasting covenant with the nation. Even though God sometimes punishes His people when they break their terms of that covenant, He never breaks His terms. Time and again, the Bible shows that God has made an everlasting covenant with the nation of Israel. He chose them even when they were a raggle-taggle bunch of nobodies in Egypt, brought them out and made them a nation to bear His Holy Name. Even when they were restored back to God's favour after He had used pagan nations to humiliate them, it was not because they deserved it, but because God's Name was to be honoured.

    In Ezekiel 36 God spoke of a future time when He would sprinkle clean water on them, to cleanse them from the filth of their idolatry. "And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations... And when I bring you back, people will say, 'This former wasteland is now like the Garden of Eden... and everyone will know that I am the Lord." This despite the Edomites mistakenly assuming that God's judgment of his people and His abandonment of the Temple meant that his covenant with Israel was no longer in effect. The Edomites had boasted and elevated themselves against Israel, thinking they would replace Israel. Their destruction was thus guaranteed.

    Chapter 37 goes on to promise, "I will open your graves of exile and cause you to rise again. Then I will bring you back to the land of Israel... My servant David will be their king and they will have only one shepherd... And my servant David will be their prince forever. And I will make a covenant of peace with them, an EVERLASTING covenant... And when my Temple is among them forever, the nations will know that I am the Lord, who makes Israel holy." Notice that this promise was made long after King David had died. This is a future prophecy.

    With respect, all your objections are based upon the Muslim refusal to accept what the Hebrew, and the Christian Greek scriptures say. Until you are open to the possibility that those ancient records are the word of God, you will never understand Christianity.

    True Christians recognize that the Jews are no longer Gods chosen people. Because of constantly rebelling against God and worshiping other false gods and then killing his only begotten son They lost gods favor. ( Matthew 23:38)

    Of course Jews are chosen people of God the original prophet was moses who rescued Jews from Egypt when they were slaves and God commanded moses to let them in Israel Jesus is a phony.

    He is the Son of God, not of Mary.

    There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28.

    They are no longer the "chosen people", nor is any special privilege allowed them. In fact, unless they believe in the name of the Son of God, and few of them do- they are destined for hell with the rest of humanity who have chosen to believe in the teachings of men rather than the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Secondly, the "lies" you mention are not lies at all, but Scriptural truths which show that "there is none righteous, no not one". Like you and I, David, Jacob, et cetera were sinners. Some of them (David) repented of their sin and sought the Lord's salvation, and were saved. A true Christian does not worship or revere the "prophets" or heroes of the Scriptures as being any more special or holy than they are, because he knows that in the flesh of man "there is no good thing".

    Problem is, people can't handle the truth and what is written in the Bible is truth weather you like it or not. It's not going to change and true Christians don't want it to change.

    All holy-books were written by superstitious people, superstition is not bound by fact or evidence, it has no constraints, limitations or restrictions placed upon it, anything you can imagine in your wildest dreams can be included in a holy-book..this being the case..why are you treating superstition as fact..

    Mohammed was a Jew? Interesting...

    Your lack of understanding of the Bible is why you follow the Koran.
