Don't they think that everybody who is not a Christian is going to hell? They don't know it? It's just this is how they were raise to believe and it's hard for them to see beyond their beliefs. They are at this comfort spot where they feel good about being in that religion. It's okay. What i don't like is that they try to push their ideas onto others. Why can't they stop converting? Should they be cleaning themselves first before converting others?

I'm glad to hear from the folks above that many Christians do not believe this.
But let me tell you...some do. I was once told point blank by someone at work that I was "going to hell" because I didn't believe in Jesus.
This is incredibly rude (some might even say, "un-Christian"). This sort of interaction has absolutely no chance of changing someone's mind...and in fact is more likely to make people think worse of Christians. A little common courtesy would go a lot further.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a Christian, the Jewish people are Gods chosen ones. to the contrary, God will save his people! The idea that Christianity replaced the Jewish inheritance is a lie. Christianity is rooted from the Jewish.
Having said that, repentance still applies and salvation still only comes from the Messiah, Jesus. The Jewish who do not know who their Messiah is will know when he returns. If they blatantly refuse, they like all others, have a problem. At end times during the tribulation, those who have accepted Christ Jesus will be raptured and the Jewish left on the earth WILL be protected by the hand of God and they will be the ones on the earth that spread the word of God, the 144 thousand.

no, that's ridiculous! true christians believe that everyone has a chance at salvation, and if they read the bible, they would see that those of the tribe of Judas (jews) will be the most obedient and humble after the second coming, that they will still be God's chosen people. for those that don't know, if all jews went to hell, then Jesus would be there to greet them, cause, DUH, He was a Jew! (they didn't have Christianity when He lived)

in some christian teaching there is what is called replacement theology, in which the church replaces the jews
God does not teach this in his word,
He teaches that the Jew is his chose people, though they are hard hearted and stubborn.
a real christian prays for isreal that they might find the messiah and be saved. It is the greatest of honors to know that jew has accepted Jesus as savior....
you might be interested to know that Jesus will save the arab too.
talk about a mighty God....................wow
you need to get right with God, or you too will die in your sins

Anyone that accepts Jesus as their Lord and Savior is going to heaven, no matter what their race. I believe that God has a special love for the Jews and a wonderful purpose for their race.

Is it true that christians believe that all jews are going to hell?
No, each generation God saves a remnant of the Jewish people through faith in Christ. The Christian religion started as a sect of Judaism and God has been saving Jewish people through faith in Christ down through the centuries.
Romans 11:25 For I don't desire, brothers, to have you ignorant of this mystery, so that you won't be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Yisra'el, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in, 26 and so all Yisra'el will be saved. Even as it is written, "There will come out of Tziyon the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Ya`akov. 27 This is my covenant to them, when I will take away their sins." 28 Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience, 31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy. 32 For God has shut up all to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all.

Good grief...where did you hear such idiocy?
There will be people of all nations, nationalities, tongues,
creeds, and colors in Heaven and in Hell. But the majority of the Jewish nation will come to the redeeming grace and knowledge of Messiah Jesus during The Great Tribulation, according to Revelation.

Not just the Jews but all who don't believe in Jesus will become toast. The poor people who lived before Jesus was born were sent to Hell on a technicality.

For what it's worth, the Catholics and some other denominations have decided that Jews have a special relationship with God and aren't going to hell after all.
Problems with this: they still believe everyone else is going to hell; who gave them the right to decide; thanks for the reassurance; etc.
