I have to agree in a way. God could not just send all of the Children of David to hell after he made a deal with David that He would not destroy his descendants. That would mean God was a liar, and He's not. If a Christian believes this, they might as well believe that Revelation is a sick joke.

If you would like to compare the temple sacrifices with the sacrifice of Christ I highly recommend reading the Book of Hebrews in the New Testament. The whole thesis of the letter is to show that because the temple sacrifices had to constantly repeated they were never meant to endure forever. However, with the sacrifice of Christ, he has effectually gone into the heavenly tabernacle to offer himself once for all time so that there is no longer a need for a repeating sacrifice. See especially in chapter 7-10. By the way even if your assumption was true about the temple sacrifice and since the temple isn't rebuilt yet what do you do with your sins now?What if it isn't rebuilt in your lifetime or other people's lifetime?
Remember in Genesis Abraham believed in God and it was credited to him as righteousness. This was way before circumcision or the law or the temple sacrifices. E-mail me if you want to discuss further. Hope that helps.

The rebuilding of the temple and the re-instituting of the sacrifices is prophetic, however, the Jews will do this in error. 3.5 years after this occurs, the abomination of desolation will occur, at which time many of them will see that they were wrong and turn to Christ.
Those same sacrifices continued 40 years after the resurrection until the temple was destroyed in 70 AD. That error did not nullify Christ's atonement.
The Jews also thought that Simon Bar Kahkba was the Messiah in 132 AD and many followed him to their deaths. He did not rise again.
The fact that the Jews are doing something does not legitimize the practice. They will be committing the same error that they did when they were following Bar Kahkba, only this time, they'll be following the Antichrist.

No this is not true. When the temple is rebuilt this will not change the fact man needs the cleansing power of Jesus.

I wonder if JC was anyway but there is nothing in Jewish theology that prevents people from atoning for their sins or being treated mercifully by a loving G-d. Anyone can walk with G-d -- even people who might not know who G-d is.
The real question is does "JC" interfere with people finding their way. I think the answers are mixed and controversial.

Judaism is the greatest proof that JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY
otherwise, why these people waited the Messiah when they had their temple.

No. The Old Testament pointed to the coming of a messiah to save the world. Jesus is that messiah.

Jesus is the Messiah. One day in the future, God will deal with the Jewish people again on this issue. We are in the time of the gentiles right now.
If you are a Jewish person, I pray to God that He reveal to you who Jesus is. May God bless you.

I have a question in response: do you think that anyone has ever changed his or her deeply held religious beliefs by reading something on Yahoo Answers? We more secular types just smile at questions like this.
