Excellent question!
And, if He practiced Judaism, why do Christians NOT practice Judaism, or did Jesus practice the wrong religion?

The center of Christianity was Jerusalem until 70 C.E. when Titus of Rome came and burned the city and tore down the Temple. The dispora occurred and both Jews and Christians were dispersed throughout Asia and Eastern Europe after the fall of Jerusalem and eventual ruin of Israel. Christian churches were already established in Asia Minor and Greece. Your history books will mention the role of the Crusades, Emperor Constantine, etc. Rome ended up being the "home" of the church until the Reformation. From then on, Rome was the home of only the Roman Catholic Church.

The center of christianity is not Rome, that is the head of the Roman Catholic church. I am a christian and do not belong to the catholic church in any form.
Jerusalem will eventually be the center of the government for the whole world when Jesus reigns on the earth for 1000 years..

Becasue it was a Roman Emperor, Constantine that decreed that thw whole of the world should be Christian and since at that time Rome was the central power in the world, Rome became the center of the early Christian church and after so many centuries, and remained so even in to the modern day.

The Church of Christ began in Jerusalem with the remaining apostles. The most unlikely place on Earth to start Christ's Bride was Jerusalem. The centre of Christianity is not in Rome! The centre of Roman Catholicism is in Rome -Vatican City, to be exact

Jesus became born in Bethlehem. the middle of Christianity isn't Rome. you're deliberating Catholocism. Many imagine there is not any longer that a lot of a distinction yet are they incorrect. The historic previous would take more desirable room than I even ought to form and take thanks to lengthy. study a touch do a touch study and also you ought to finally end up repenting and searching the excitement of Jesus Christ on your life. no longer to point eternity in Heaven only yet another perk haha. Peace out and God Bless.

I would say because the majority of Israel doesn't accept
Christ as the Messiah, but we the Gentiles have and so it would make sense to have the center of our faith in a place with history and a deep faith.
God Bless,

There was no Israel when Jesus was born. Israel came later.
Rome is not the center, it just has more money. ALL POLITICS.

Because that was what the Israelites thought that Jesus would do. They thought the Messiah would conquer Rome for them. He did but, not the way they thought.

It isn't. That is the center of Roman Catholicism, not Christianity.
