Considering Jews are gods chosen people.. why would god send them to hell if they don't accept Jesus.
I just think their seems to be a discord here

Well. Here is your first problem .
Jews are not the only chosen people today.
Israel is the Chosen New Spiritual Jerusalem.
ALL people can be chosen as "Spiritual Jews" through Christ. Gal.3
Old Testament Jews will accept Jesus Christ as they're savior, or....bummer

The Jews were chosen to be the people (nation) from which Messiah would come.
It was about all God could do to keep them from destroying themselves until that blessed event could happen.
And no Jew was ever saved by keeping the old law, because nobody ever kept it perfectly. You break one, you break 'em all.
Animal sacrifices didn't quite cut it either. All they did was demonstrate a certain amount of "good faith".
Today, under God's new covenant, Jews get saved (or not) just like everyone else. Grace. Faith in Christ. Baptism.
If by some chance a good Jew (or anyone) never hears of Christ, due to no fault of his own, God will understand and MAY cut him a little slack.
God is totally fair to everyone.

Maybe you should read more.
The Jews made a contract with God and God likewise made a promise with them.
Heaven is where God is and hell is where God is not. Earth is where man is. The goal is for man to get to God. God, not man, judges; the results are still out for the Jews.
There is no discord here and you would know that if you read the book.

There is still a remnant in Israel. These may or may not be the Messianic Jews. There is also something called dual-covenant theology which says the Jews are saved because of God's covenant with Abraham. This, however, is not a widely accepted view. Only God really knows. Take comfort in the fact that God is good and merciful. His mercy endureth forever. He is holy and just. He sacrificed Himself so that we can be with Him in eternity forever. His love is boundless.

Yes God chose to have His Son born through the nation of Israel, in fulfillment of His promise to righteous Abraham.It was because of the righteouness of Abraham's seed Isaac and Jacob that the nation of Israel was born. As God changed Jacob's name to Israel. Geneis 35-10. This was the fleshly nation of Israel as we can see by the scriptures that the Spiritual nation and Kingdom of Israel was to be achieved through Gods promise and plan for all of those that would do God's will as Abraham. Gen.15-6. Also as Jacob in Gen. 28-14. You must read all of the scriptures to get a true picture of the fall of man in the garden of Eden, and to see assuredly that God knowing that man was weak in the flesh, He mercifully sent His Only begotten Son Whom was willing to die for His creation because He loved us so much. You will see that from generation to generation man became continually wicked but God still had a few or a remanant following Him as he does to this day. After you read through all of these scriptures you will see how merciful God is to the Jews and all of His creation. Look in Jeremiah 3. Read the whole chapter. That is the same mercy He still has for each one of us today. Read in Acts 10- 34-35, " Then Peter opened his mouth and said, In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality. But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteouness is accepted by Him. Many are called but few are chosen to be chosen we must accept the invitation and enter in , we as the soon to be Bride Of Christ must put on our wedding cloths( The Faith Of Jesus and His Righteousness) and start giving out the invitation to others.

We are all Gods people... If you regect Christ then you will go to hell, no matter waht religion. Now say that the "Jews" are the chosen people...so what if they sin, do not repent, or accept Jesus into thier heart then they will go to heaven? While we have to do all thoose things to make it??? That makes no sence at all now does it??

God is fair to everyone. Therefor we all have the same chance to get into heaven and that is to accept him as their saviour. If we don't choose him then we take the alternate route for eternity which is HELL(including Jews)
