Seems an Oxymoron to me. Jews, for the most part, disbelieve Jesus, yet Jesus says he's the only way to heaven. Therefore, Jews, god's chosen people, are going to hell? I love how logical and rational you guys can be.

The real truth is no one, and I mean NO ONE, on this planet has the power or the knowledge to make this statement about who will and who will not go to hell. To do so is a sin according to the bible. So we all have enough sins to tend to without worrying about the supposed sins of others. Make sure your place in the afterlife is set before making comments about the fate of others.

Just because a person is a Jew does not mean they will go to Heaven the Jews must believe in Jesus and place their faith in Him just like everyone else. The Jewish race was the chosen race in which God choose to bring Jesus into the world

Well Jesus is the only way to Heaven. If Jews don't believe in Jesus and believe in something else then they won't be having a great time in Heaven.

The most ironic part is most Christians today will tell you that Jews are still required to live under the law (all those 600+ laws in the OT).
So let's recap....
1. Jews go to hell anyway because they don't accept Jesus
2. Regardless of #1, they are still required to follow the most archaic, sexist and inane laws imaginable (no shrimp!)
3. They are required to follow these laws based solely of the factor of their race.
Helluva set up the Christians give those Jews!
Where do I sign up?

i've got been questioning this, too. If Christians are the only ones who bypass to Heaven, then Jews won't be able to bypass simply by fact they do no longer settle for Jesus as God/Son of God/Savior. yet whilst Jews are God's "chosen" (which i do no longer think, simply by fact i do no longer think of God performs favorites), then the Christian perception which you ought to to settle for Jesus as God and Savior to get to Heaven is a contradiction. certainly, it relatively is not any doubt considered one of the excuses why i admire Islam. The Qur'an needless to say states that Muslims, Christians, Jews, and relatively everyone who believes in and serves God and does stable works and avoids evil might have their reward with God. That makes a lot extra experience to me. : )

You are right. They are His chosen people. But you are wrong that they will be going to hell. In the second coming of God himself, He will give his people(the Jews) a second chance to accept Jesus as the Messiah. When they see all the thing s he will do to protect them, they will finally believe and will all go to heaven and reign with him.

Jesus fulfilled the Old Covenant (Judaism) and established the New Covenant (Christianity). In doing so, Judaism was rendered obsolete as a tool for salvation. Jews are not necessarily going to Hell for being jews... its just much harder.

Jews believe that Jesus is a prophet.
And Jews have to believe in God to go to heaven.

Just the other night I saw you called Jews "rats", and now you're defending them?? You confuse me.
Oh yeah, and they're still chosen, but weren't supposed to see Jesus as he is the first time.

I thought that God chose the Jews as an exception.
