will jewish people go to heaven like us?

Question

us christians of course!!

Answer 1

Only if they accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.

Answer 2

Ok first off no they will not go to heaven. Romans 10:9 if you confess with your mouth Jesus is lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved.

If they believe in Christ they will go to heaven. They have taken their own messiah and rejected him. The Davidic prophecy of the messiah never happened according to the Jewish faith. Ask a Jewish person how many of their scholars predicted that the messiah was coming. Still he has not come over 3000 years have gone by since the prophecy and he's still not here. More Jewish people read books from Rabi's than the actual Torah itself. They did not realize that he was the messiah.

For anyone to go to heaven they have to believe in Christ. That is what gets you to heaven.

Answer 3

Who are "us" for a start? And whoever you are why do you assume you are going to heaven? Only God deciedes who gets into heaven or not, not your pastor not your priest not your minister has the right to tell anyone they are getting into heaven. A place in heaven has to be earned it aint a free ticket sister. And as for asking if Jewish people get into heaven or not, why do you only question them.... Does that assume you believe all other religions apart from Jews are getting in? Or do "us" whoever you are feel you have exclusivity.
THE CATACLYSM
In the name of god, the compassionate, the merciful.
When the sky is rent asunder; when the stars scatter and the oceans merge together; when the graves are hurled about: each soul shall know what it has done and what it has failed to do.
o man! What evil has enticed you from your gracious Lord who created you, and gave you due proportions and upright form? In whatever shape He willed He could have moulded you.
Yet you deny the Last Judgement. Surely there are guardians watching over you, noble recorders who know of all your actions.
The righteous will surely dwell in bliss. But the wicked shall burn in Hell upon the Judgement-day: nor shall they ever escape from it.
Would that you knew what the Day of Judgement is! Oh, would that you knew what the Day of Judgement is! It is the day when every soul will stand alone and God will reign supreme.

Did you hear that "every soul stands alone" and when its your turn to stand alone where are your "us" then?

Answer 4

Being jewish does not prevent a person from going to heaven. Not all christians will go to heaven either. No one really knows until judgement day if he/she would be going to heaven.

Answer 5

You need to stop thinking that the only group of people being saved are white Americans.

Anyone who praises the Lord as God, and accepts Jesus died for them will go to heaven according to the Christian Faith.

The Lord loves us all equally. UNCONDITIONALLY. He doesn't see the colours on the outside- He made them all! He sees whether or not you have a pure heart when it comes to His teachings and the way you treat your fellow man. And by the way- asking these questions by putting yourself as "us" is not treating your fellow man any better!

Why are you so worried about whether those who are black and those who are jewish will go to heaven???

Answer 6

Yes, Scripture says that all of Israel will be saved.

Rom 11:25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.
Rom 11:26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
"The deliverer will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
Rom 11:27 And this is[6] my covenant with them
when I take away their sins."[7]
Rom 11:28 As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies on your account; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs,
Rom 11:29 for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
Rom 11:30 Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience,
Rom 11:31 so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now[8] receive mercy as a result of God's mercy to you.
Rom 11:32 For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.


Note: Whether or not she is young and asks stupid questions is not the point, She actually asked (even if inadvertedly) an important question. The Jewish people (more specficaly all of the desendants of Israel aka Jacob) are God's chosen people. Gentile Christians (like myself) have only been "grafted" into this group.

Answer 7

Despite my agnosticism, I find the CULTURAL aspects of this debate interesting, as I studied comparative religion. The whole concept of an afterlife (in which "heaven" is included) varies from religion to religion. In your question, you are assuming that the heaven of "us" (I assume you're Christian?) a) really exists and b) will be the same for everyone, regardless of countless other beliefs.

On one site, a Jewish author addresses the confusion of Christians about jesus and salvation (since xtians believe salvation is necessary to get into heaven, this is pertinent): "There's a lot of misunderstanding among Christians about how a Jew is "saved." Even using that word, you're already using Christian vocabulary. Christians, especially evangelicals, regard Judaism as a system where you purchase salvation with acts, good deeds, sacrifices. That's such a misunderstanding of Judaism.

Jews were assured that we had been "saved"--to use Christian language--at Mount Sinai [where the Jews received the Torah]. The 613 mitzvot--commandments--are our response to being saved. They're the grammar in which we conduct our relationship with God. The relationship has already been given to us as an unmerited gift at Mount Sinai. Just as there's a grammar of your relationship with your parents, your friends, your spouse. It's the same with God and the Jews and the Torah." (1)

So, you see, Jews do not believe salvation is something they must acquire, but already have, as given to them by God, through the commandments Moses brought down.

As for Jewish belief in an afterlife, another article states: "Judaism is famously ambiguous about this matter. The immortality of the soul, the World to Come, and the resurrection of the dead all feature prominently in Jewish tradition, but the logistics of what these things are and how they relate to each other has always been ambiguous."

There are many Biblical references to both resurrection and reincarnation, but few guidelines as to who will live on after death and how it will be decided. (2)

At any rate, as stated on this same site, both Jews and Christians need to learn to accept one another in the modern age, for the survival of both. They include Muslims in this as well, saying they must stop (as must Christians) trying to force their version of a god onto other religious groups, by whatever means.

I agree. Whether there is a heaven or not, I suggest you learn more about different religions (the first site below also discusses Buddhism, Hinduism and other faiths), and stop worrying about whether Jews will get into YOUR version of heaven!

If you're that worried, concentrate on your own life and practices, especially tolerance and acceptance.

Answer 8

Seriously I can't believe you are asking these questions I have just finished answering your other stupid question "blacks go to heaven". What is wrong with you?!?!? Everybody can go to heaven if they have done a good deed. I don't think you have to believe in the christianity God to go to heaven because Mother Teresa I think was not a christian but, I do believe she went to heaven. I think you should ask yourself if you could go to heaven.

Answer 9

Dear Proud,
Looking at all your questions and answers, it is apparant that you are very young and have been raised in a very....isolated sort of household. If you add a little bit of explanation to your questions like that this was something your mom hasn't explained or let people know how old you are, then people won't say such harsh things thinking that you are an adult and trying to be mean to them...that you truly are trying to learn.

Just something to think about.

Answer 10

like us? who is "us"? I f you mean christians? The answer is: I can't say. Remember that God is the judge of us all. Only God will judge the living and the dead on the last day.
Also, christians and Jews worship thesame God. The Jews just havn't accepted Jesus Christ as the Messiah.

Answer 11

If there is a heaven and they are good people, then they will go to heaven.
