Christianity is avodah zarah (Hebrew: "foreign worship," meaning "idolatry" or "strange worship") and the Torah has nothing to do with the goyim
In regards to the ten commandments with are 10 guides which are expound on the 613 commandments
God never brought the goyim or their ancestors out of Egypt! Ex 20:2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery."
The Lord has not given the goyim the promised land of Canaan! Ex 20:12 "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you"
Since the Sabbath is a sign between God and fleshly Israel, there is nothing requiring goyim to keep it! (Ex. 31:13,17; Ezek. 20:12, 20)
If it was intended for all mankind, then why specifically say "strangers within your gates". Obviously the goyim (strangers) were never required at any point in earth history to keep the Sabbath or ten commandment
They are only required to follow the seven laws of Noah
Seven Laws of Noah - Wikipedia
Universal Morality - The Seven Noahide Laws
THE 7 LAWS
1
Acknowledge that there is only one G‑d who is Infinite and Supreme above all things. Do not replace that Supreme Being with finite idols, be it yourself, or other beings (the christian jesus). This command includes such acts as prayer, study and meditation.
2
Respect the Creator. As frustrated and angry as you may be, do not vent it by cursing your Maker.
3
Respect human life. Every human being is an entire world. To save a life is to save that entire world. To destroy a life is to destroy an entire world. To help others live is a corollary of this principle.
4
Respect the institution of marriage. Marriage is a most Divine act. The marriage of a man and a woman is a reflection of the oneness of G‑d and His creation. Disloyalty in marriage is an assault on that oneness.
5
Respect the rights and property of others. Be honest in all your business dealings. By relying on G‑d rather than on our own conniving, we express our trust in Him as the Provider of Life.
6
Respect G‑d's creatures. At first, Man was forbidden to consume meat. After the Great Flood, he was permitted - but with a warning: Do not cause unnecessary suffering to any creature.
7
Maintain justice. Justice is G‑d's business, but we are given the charge to lay down necessary laws and enforce them whenever we can. When we right the wrongs of society, we are acting as partners in the act of sustaining the creation.
Hashem let Christianity take it's place only because it serves His purpose.
Otherwise Europeans would remain pagans, so that when the anointed comes- they get exactly what's going on, otherwise it would mean nothing to them.
Islam is closer to Judaism, but as Maimonides says, they're simple, more - these people will get the message of One G-d much more easily (see Ishamel promise, and Israel's answer to Hashem- "we'll do, then we'll hear).
However guno, You seem to overlook Ishmael's partial right to the land, and the fact that our Rabi Moses brought the "ערב רב" out of Egypt, believing they can repent and live righteously among Israel.
Have a good week.
NOT ARABS or MUSLIMS >>>>>ערב רב
Agreed, Arabs are Ishmael and have a partial right to the land for their partial circumcision.
The ערב רב on the other hand...Moses believed they were good in essence, and decided to free them of Egypt- who're we to argue?
However they have a crucial part in awaking Israel, and...causing suffering they'll cause us call for Hashem.
yes---but do not confuse the issue with other people and land rights
Please elaborate.
