If G-d gave truly gave Judaism & Jesus Himself practiced it, why do you think Christianity is the way to G-d?

Jesus taught that he fufilled the Law of Moses, and was the Son of G-d. He gave the "new Testament" or new way, after he fufilled the law in the form of a blood sacrifice, his life. This is why he taught that "no man cometh unto the Father, execpt by me." Christians believe that Christ bought each of us with his own blood and that thru his atonement we can be saved by belief in him and by obedience to his laws, commandments and ordinanced. He also commanded his disipels and apostles that they were to teach this new law, thus was born Christianity.
And for those of you blasting this person for not spelling out G-d, in the Jewish faith, it is a sign of respect to not spell out or say the name of G-d.

Jesus Operated under the Old Testament----Jesus had not Ratified the New Testament yet, Jesus hadn't Died on the Cross.
Every Thing HE did, HE did under the Old Testament.
Until HE made a Way for US to get Born-Again (Saved) by Dying on the Cross.

Jesus was Jewish but most of the Jews did not believe in Jesus so therefore, they will not go to heaven because Jesus in the way and there is no other. They still believe that Jesus is coming but He has already come and will come again. Christianity with a full relationship with Jesus is the only way.

Jesus answers this question best....speaking to those who practiced Judaism....
"If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?" (John 5:45-47)
"I know you are Abraham’s descendants. Yet you are ready to kill me, because you have no room for my word. I am telling you what I have seen in the Father’s presence, and you do what you have heard from your father. " "Abraham is our father," they answered. "If you were Abraham’s children," said Jesus, "then you would do the things Abraham did. As it is, you are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things. You are doing the things your own father does." "We are not illegitimate children," they protested. "The only Father we have is God himself." Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me." (John 8:37-42)

John 14:6 Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but through me.
Your question shows that you have not read the Holy Bible; the New Testament more specifically. Jesus didn't come to the world to take away the law of the Old Testament; He came to fulfill the prophesy of the O/T.
Don't just take my word for it, read it for yourself!

The Law can only bring Death, But the promise of Shiloh (He whom shall inherit all things) fulfills the Law and brings those who follow Him (the Kinsman Redeemer) will be saved from the Law and from Death.

The Catholic Church doesn't say that Christianity is the only way to God, and that other monotheistic religions contain saving truths, and for these truths, they will be saved.

Jesus is God manifest in the flesh. Israel rejected Him, so he went to the sheep of the other fold.

Jesus is the way to God, thus the name "Christianity."
