The Bible debate (and no emotions, please): I submit that Jesus was a devout adherent of Judaism and never...?

Question

intended to found a religion now called Christianity. Christianity was not mandated by Jesus. Even worse, his name was not Christ.

Answer 1

More power to you.

Answer 2

Actually friend his "name" was not even Jesus .... there was no J in that alphabet.... his name was Yeshua....
I think as others have said if you will take the time to read the gospels you will find that he not only intended to start his church .. he specifically said so.
Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Christ as others have told you was not part of his name but rather a title.. The Anointed....
And again as others have pointed out it was actually Paul which started the church movement that is today called Christianity.
As for being devout and adherent to Judaism... If he were he would not have been brought to trial for blasphemy and for not observing the Torah law for violating the Sabbath..... (which in reality he did not do as he is The Christ and has the authority to set the laws of the observance of the sabbath)

Study the word friend you will be amazed at what you learn.

God bless you

Answer 3

Jesus PREDICTED the END of Judaism and the law.

Jesus said he didn’t come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. (Matt 5:17) The effect was the same. Once fulfilled it was no longer in effect. The very next verse, Matthew 5:18, looks forward to the time when the law would be set aside. "...Not even the smallest stroke of a pen will disappear from the Law UNTIL EVERYTHING IS COMPLETED."

On the cross, Jesus' last recorded saying, "It is finished," is an important milestone. Because of Jesus life, Satan had been defeated. The law was finished and would no longer stand between God and mankind.

The 10 commandments along with the rest of the law ("commands and rules" from Ephesians 2:15) were "set aside" when they were fulfilled or completed at Jesus' resurrection. We are no longer bound by that law.

Ephesians 2:15 Through his body on the cross, Christ put an end to the LAW WITH ALL ITS COMMANDS AND RULES. He wanted to create one new group of people out of the two. He wanted to make peace between them.

Colossians 2:14 He wiped out the written Law with its rules. The Law was against us. It opposed us. He took it away and nailed it to the cross.

Galatians 2:16 ...No one can be made right with God by obeying the law.

Galatians 2:21 ...What if a person could become right with God by obeying the law? Then Christ died for nothing!

Galatians 5:4 Some of you are trying to be made right with God by obeying the law. You have been separated from Christ. You have fallen away from God’s grace... The ONLY verse that talks about falling from grace, and they did it by trying to follow the law!

Answer 4

The final books of the Bible have been written hundreds of years earlier the qu'ran. It replace into from the Bible that Mohamed have been given a number of his concepts yet regrettably he made ameliorations to God's inspired Scriptures which won't be in a position to be mind-blowing, especially his concepts on Ishmael and Jesus. Moslems decide to assert that the Bible has been replaced yet if certainty be told while the oldest fragments and chapters of Genesis and Isaiah have been recent in Qumran they matched the manuscripts we've, So no ameliorations there. The Bible for sure states that the Lord Jesus Christ is the son of God, not purely a prophet as Islam states. additionally it replace into for sure reported that Isaac replace into the guy who God needed Abraham to be arranged to kill not Ishmael. The covenant can provide of God went via Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (who's Israel). Ishmael had different can provide. The Bible is the placement to discover a majority of those issues and that i actually can propose it. Jesus delivered the message of the gospel of the dominion and salvation.

Answer 5

As of devout adherent of Judaism you say, ... i may say that the 12 disciples are representing the 12 tribes of Israel with their own 12 religions. For a start, Peter 'the rock' is for Abraham, Paul is for the Roman Catholics, Matthew is for the Jewish, John is for the Judaism that you mentioned but the later Judah as the first one is the knowledgeable street politician... as for the rest... I may say honestly, I don't know... but I have given the idea. But for the 'truth' behind them all, as I presume, the 12 Kingdom of the Pharaoah is in it... and it took 2000 years for them to reason out through Him, in Him, with Him and of the Holy Ghost... The sign of peace is my basis, 'remember the man 2000 years ago' is the message.

Answer 6

I'll concede to this much.. Christ was not His name. Christ is like a title. It is Greek for "annointed one". As for the rest of what you said.... He most certainly was intending to fulfill the Jewish prophecy of His coming. He came to die for everyone's sin, but His own people rejected Him. It only became a seperate religion because the Jews decided not to follow there own God. They decided they liked the way they were doing things before and God had no right to change things up on them. If they had decided to follow I would today be rpoudly calling myself a Jew rather than a Christian, but they didn't, and I'm not.

Oh and just for the record Christianity is not a religion. The word Christian mean "to be Christ like". We accept His teaching and stive our best to live like He would.

Answer 7

O.K. No emotion. Just the facts we have. for me that is the Bible.
Jesus was born INTO the Jewish system. It had been in operation for 1500 years. It was set up between Almighty God [ Jehovah..Exodus 6;3] and Abraham. God gave the Jews 600 laws, but it was nearly impossible to keep all of them. Then God sent Jesus [ Christ/Messiah] to change the system. Of course with God's approval.
(Matthew 3:17) Look! Also, there was a voice from the heavens that said: “This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved.”

(Mark 9:7) And a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud: “This is my Son, the beloved; listen to him.”

And what did Jesus tell us?
(Matthew 22:37-40) He said to him: “‘You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.’ 38 This is the greatest and first commandment. 39 The second, like it, is this, ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments the whole Law hangs, and the Prophets.”

Two laws to replace 600.

MESSIAH

From the Hebrew root verb ma·shach′, meaning “smear,” and so “anoint.” (Ex 29:2, 7) Messiah (ma·shi′ach) means “anointed” or “anointed one.” The Greek equivalent is Khri·stos′, or Christ.—Mt 2:4, ftn.

Answer 8

Completely false. Jesus preached a New Covenant. He also, criticized Moses, broke the sabbath, and was crucified For crimes against the Jewish religious law. To call him a devout Jew, is a fallacy. while he may have kept some of the laws, he by no means, kept them all. Jesus told Peter to "build my church" (Matthew 16:18) And if you are going to say his name is mistranslated, that's LAME!!! You are wrong on all counts, wanna try again?

Answer 9

When the Jews refused to accept their own Messiah, and responded by brutally persecuting those who believed in him, there was little choice for them but to separate from Judaism.

God made the decision permanent and irrevocable when he arranged for the Romans to destroy Jerusalem and the jewish temple in 70 AD, just as Jesus had earlier predicted.

The word "Christ" means "anointed one" and is the traditional name for one sent and empowered by God, whether king or messiah, but in this case, THE messiah.

Sounds like you have some homework to do.

Answer 10

According to the words of Jesus in the Bible, He made it perfectly clear to those He spoke to that He was and is God. I won't copy and paste the material from the first set of links below, but it was obvious that Jesus was claiming divinity and doing things that fully supported His claim to be God. I don't think what He said or did was an accident.

Answer 11

Christ is a title not a name, it means Anointed One.We follow
Jesus the Christ, thus the name Christianity
