Why do the Jewish seem more prosperus? they seem to be more finatialy blessed. Why would God bless another religion more, if being Chistian is the way to go?

Sounds to me like you are "believing" for the wrong reasons. God is not a genie. He doesn't pop out of a magic lamp if we rub it and grant us our wishes. The reason "jewish" people seem to be more wealthy than others has to do with their heritage and discipline with their money. They are also known to be very stingy. Many americans are very frivilous with their finances and don't spend it wisely. It has nothing to do with religon. It has to do with upbringing and priority.

In the middle ages the jews were persecuted by the christians because the christians believed the jews were responsable for the death of jesus. So, since the original christians rejected many jobs dealing with money because they thought them to be impure occupations, they gave those jobs, (bankers, merchants etc) to the jews. This happened alot and all over europe, so, a couple hundred years later and now theres very many wealthy jews around. There is no god and there are no blessings. Everything that is here is caused by something. The christians created the rich jews by treating them the way they did before. Cause and effect. Hope that helps
peace

in bible times, God got his piont across be blessing nations that loved worshiped and followed his word. At the time, the jewish people pleased God the bestest. That doesn't mean that they still are.

God blesses the work of our hands, and if we are walking in his will we will be blessed no matter what - Financial blessing is only part of it.
On a purely practical level, I find Jews just tend to be tighter with their money!!

Jewish culture encourages a type of cooperative economics among themselves. It is not so much religious, as cultural. After centuries and centuries of persecution, they have learned that when hard times hit, they need to be able to rely on each other. This type of thinking has helped to protect their culture, and their lives, and will continue to. As Christians, we shouldn't be mad at them for being smart enough to do that. I mean, we have Dave Ramsey don't we.

Because jewish people ar busy working while you moronic born again idiots are busy putting other peole down. All jews are not rich, In fact, some of the richest people in America are thecheating, lieing, born again tele-evangelists who tell people to send them money for salvation.

What god gives us material wise isn't a big deal. It's what he gives us spiritually. When we get to heaven, it'll all go away and we will be the more blessed.
And the whole banking thing is just a stereotype anyways.

Israelites are God's chosen vessels.
Bottom line is obey or disobey, life or death...
CHOOSE LIFE.
we are grafted in to the olive branch, we can partake in His blessings...but only through obedience and staying connected to the branch.
