So I began thinking what if god sent Jesus to save the jews. Like he doesn't give a damn about christians or catholics. He was all for the jews. Yeah it's a crazy thought but if you read the bible, NO if you even read a single bible story it's about jews. I'm a christian so i'm familiar with the bible so this disturbed me when I caught on to this. |

| semen jones | That is because there were NO CHRISTIANS when/before Jesus showed up. And besides jesus' message pertains to EVERYONE not just jews. |

Now I don't believe in God or Jewish people being 'His people'. Total BS, but that's what the Bible says. When they turned their back on Jesus, they were not His people anymore, according to the religion, and that's when it's not just them that need to be saved. But you gotta understand that the Bible is a book, written by men. You just found out that the Bible was originally written for Jewish people. | |

God sent Jesus to save the Jews, no the WORLD, from their sins, because at their current state they were unable to fully remove the mark of sin, but rather cover it up with animal sacrifice. The penalty for sin was paid by Jesus, and so whoever accepted his sacrifice was saved from the penalty of sin. The belief in this led to Christianity, which Jews and Gentiles alike came to know. Also, I Timothy 2:4 says God “…desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” I Timothy 4:10 says "For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach,[a] because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe." Not some. Not just Jews. John 3:16 "For God so loved the WORLD that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." Read your bibble before claiming stuff like that :D Quote:

But now you might imagine why a lot of the Jewish people didn't follow, because of the fact that the Jews thought that they WERE God's people. They probably thought "God brought us out of slavery, gave us a home in Jerusalem, been with us through all this shit like the Babylonian capitvity..." and started to get selfish with him, and all of a sudden this Jew (nevertheless a Jew from NAZARETH, which is the boonies of the boonies) comes up front and center and says GOD IS FOR EVERYONE and calls for an entire change of perception about life, humanity, and God etc. etc. and what do you mean by "saved?" Quote:
but really, you're treating it like God's holding us for ransom or something, like he's from the mob, hovering around us and wont go away until we pay that favor we owe him. That we had a debt. That we "appeased" him with the death of Jesus. Come ON. blood for the blood god | |||

| A FAWKING KEY-TRIKE? STOOPID IDEA!! | Christianity is a spinoff of Judaism that was lucky enough to appeal to the masses in the Empire. Jesus came for everyone, not for the Jews who are technically apostates for rejecting him as the Son of God. |

| Dual Wielder | Heh well, all this issue with Judaism is fucked up, you know that if your mother is jewish you're jewish no matter what your religion is? The jews made a race out of nothing, declaring they are the "superior race". I myself am a Natrualist jew just because of that very fact. |
