I have known alot of Christians in my lifetime and there has never been to my knowledge ever a question over Jesus Christ being anything other than Jewish so you might need to help someone get the facts ,sounds like an opportunity to lead someone in the path of righteousness. I am not Jewish because i believe Jesus Christ was killed by the Jews because the son of God was destined to die to give us the chance to be forgiven and to accept him as our Savior

Which Christians Faith told you Jesus was NOT a Jew!
Jesus WAS a Jew and Not Only a Jew but a RABBI also!
All Bibles, even the Quran (Muslim Bible) list Jesus as a Jew, whom was sent by GOD to try and bring Israel back to GOD.
But, also, Jesus knew what the final outcome would be, and that in the end, he would rejected by his own people and given over to the Romans to be Crucified.
Yes, Jesus was a Jew, and so were his followers till after his death and resurrection, then everyone started to flee Israel due to prosecution and the followers of Christ became known as Christians.

It's because gentiles (non-Jews) are generally programmed from birth against anything Jewish (they are the other people).
It's also because the fourth commandment requires us to rest on the Sabbath which is the seventh day which is Saturday. And one argument against obeying God in this commandment is: "Oh, that's Jewish. Leave it alone. "
However, the Son of man, Christ, who was a Jew, said that he is Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8, Mark 2:28, Luke 6:5).

I am not a Christian and I say that he was a Hebrew and not a Jew.
At that time all Jews, Hebrews and romans followed one calender - hence, same holidays declared by roman empire was true to all. Judaism was any way the leading religion at that time, and there is a possibility that Jesus follwed it until the time he decided to go on his own.

Why don't you read the Christian's answers on here. We readily admit and accept that Jesus was a Jew. Mary and Joseph both were of the house of David. Are you one of those always keeping things stirred up on here by your stupid questions?

because you cannot just say one day "I am jewish now." it does not work that way. I am gentile. I am adopted by Jesus. I do not have to be Jewish to be loved or love him or follow his teachings. If you had read the new testament then you would know that.
