I think we are just trying to figure out the appeal you have for your faith that is devoid of salvation.They already had it-ancient Israel.I don't know about modern Judaism, but for ancient Israel, the hope of salvation lay in territory, i.e., a promised land.The doctrine of salvation is not part of Judaism.
You know Assyria took that land, right? And Babylon? And others?They already had it-ancient Israel.I don't know about modern Judaism, but for ancient Israel, the hope of salvation lay in territory, i.e., a promised land.The doctrine of salvation is not part of Judaism.
Yea, that so-called Messiah would come around the time of the temple's destruction, which was in AD 70. Obviously, their expectations of a warrior-messiah didn't pan out.The Jewish Messiah foretold in the OT will be a political and military leader who will defeat the enemies of The Jews, restore them to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem.
Jesus was a pacifist.

Salvation was in territory, plain and simple. It was in escaping Pharaoh, for example, and never seeing the Egyptians again (Ex 14:10-14).They said rebuild the temple, idiotYea, that so-called Messiah would come around the time of the temple's destruction, which was in AD 70.

You dont find that odd?No thanks, not willing to deny Christ.
Because Jews cannot accept Christ, I cannot convert to Judaism either. However, studying Judaism and the Old Testament from the Jewish perspective is one of the most enriching studies to embark upon. I highly recommend it for Christians. It has only served to deepen my faith and the trust I have in God and His ways.No thanks, not willing to deny Christ.
The Old Testament is much longer than the NT, but Judaism is muich simpler than Christianity.Because Jews cannot accept Christ, I cannot convert to Judaism either.

Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, Esther, Susannah, and more.... These Jews are equivalent to the Sports Hall of Fame just like Saints are the equivalent to the Sports Hall of Fame. I am not familiar with the current Jewish belief about the afterlife. In Biblical times we read that some Jews held no belief in an afterlife, and good Jews had an afterlife with wherever Abraham was. They seemed to believe to reach the Bosom of Abraham might require some purification, and set that time of purification as no more than a year. I think the truly evil were thought to remain forever in the shadowy place of death? The place of purification remains in Catholic theology (referenced as purgatory) whereas Protestant Christian dropped this at the time of the Reformation.The Old Testament is much longer than the NT, but Judaism is muich simpler than Christianity.
Only God is divine and he has no son. There are no saints and no Trinity. There is no Satan and no Hell.

The Jewish Messiah foretold in the OT will be a political and military leader who will defeat the enemies of The Jews, restore them to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem.In truth, he is the only one that could have fit the descriptionThe messiah described in the Old Testament has not come yet. Jesus does not fit the OT description.They started it. They said a Messiah was coming and even gave a calendar for it in Daniel 9:24-27 that pointed to him coming at the time Jesus walked the earth.Christianity should represent the metaphysical evolution of the Hebrew faith and its fulfillment. "I Am" is the deity of Judaism, "I Am saves" is the name of Christ. That says it all.
That division is rife in the world serves whom? Who profits from dividing Jews from Christians (or any people from another)? Only the "Adversary".
Then when it happened they threw a fit and had a conniption over it.
However, Trump is really to blame. FYI.
Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression[a] and judgment he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
for the transgression of my people he was punished.[b]
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
and with the rich in his death,
though he had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer,
and though the Lord makes[c] his life an offering for sin,
he will see his offspring and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,
he will see the light of life[d] and be satisfied[e];
by his knowledge[f] my righteous servant will justify many,
and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[g]
and he will divide the spoils with the strong,[h]
because he poured out his life unto death,
and was numbered with the transgressors.
For he bore the sin of many,
and made intercession for the transgressors.
