Why do Christians believe in Jesus if he was a Jew? Why dont they just believe in Judaism?

Answer 1

it is true indeed that jesus was a jew, infact he kept the Holidays and the ceremonies traditional too the prphets and teachers of old. But why belive in jesus? The BIble says that jesus came too deliver both jew and genitle, why? well let me explain by asking you a couple of questions.

have you ever told a Lie? Telling Just one lie makes us a lair according to God’s standards, in revelations 21:8 God say’s “all Liars shall have their part in the lake of fire.”
Have you ever stolen something? Stealing Just one thing according to God’s standard makes you a thief, even if the value of the item is small. First Corinthians 6:10 say's No thieves shall inherit the Kingdome of God. Have you ever looked with lust? God sees our thoughts and he has declared that even looking upon someone with lust is adultery of the heart. Have you ever used Gods name in vain? This is called blasphemy, and God will not hold them guiltless who use his name in vain. Can you see the Issue here? Were “Good” by our standards, but By Gods were not, and we’ll have to face God in Judgment. The Bible says God is angry at the wicked every day, and that no man either being jew or gentile has lived up too the perfect standards of a Holy God.so, In reality both jew and gentile are in the same boat, if we have broken Gods law he being Just must give us Justice (hell). But heres the good news, God has done something for you that you would not have to suffer in hell, God sent his Son (Jesus) too suffer and die on the cross for your sins. You broke Gods law, you deserve God’s Justice, but Christ took the Punishment you deserve, your broke the law and Jesus paid the fine. What must you do? Repent (turn from sin) and trust in Jesus Like you would trust a parachute; it’s the only thing that will save you and I. God provided jeus too be an aotnement for us, that Both jew and gentile through repenatnce (confessing and forsaking our sin) can be brought to reconcilliation with God, thats why we Must belive on jesus, not a religious system or code, because jesus alone has bridged the Gap between man and God. so ask God to shine his spotlight on your heart and examine yourself under his law, then confess and forsake your sins and trust in jesus.
God Bless

Answer 2

Judaism doesn't believe Jesus arose from the grave, Judaism doesn't believe Jesus was the Son of God. People who worship judaism don't believe Jesus is the Saviour of the World and the Holy Bible clearly teaches that he was. The Bible says you are either a believer or an unbeliever. People who serve Judaism are unbelievers of Jesus. Its that simple.

Answer 3

Jesus was was a son of God born along by Holy Spirit and was raised as a Jew. and besides, Christians dont believe in Judaism because it does not teach what is true.

Answer 4

Christains believe that Jesus is the promised Mesiah, which Judaism is currently waiting for. Remember too, Christianity was started by Jews and was principally nothing but Jews for quite a while. But that is the real difference. One believes that the Messiah is still coming (Judaism) and one believes the Messiah has already came (Christains).

Answer 5

We do believe in Judaism. We believe that the Jews practiced it, and that it was a covenant with God for a time. Even during that time God said:
Jeremiah 31:31
"The time is coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah."

This was after the Old Covenant had been established, and after the Hebrews settled into Israel. It's just that the Jews do not tend to believe in their Messiah, which was also prophesied:

Romans 10
"Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world." 19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,
"I will make you envious by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding." 20 And Isaiah boldly says,
"I was found by those who did not seek me;
I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me."
21 But concerning Israel he says,
"All day long I have held out my hands
to a disobedient and obstinate people."

What God has done with His promised New Covenant is this:

Hebrews 9:15
For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.

I realize that your question might be tongue in cheek, but I gave you the straight answer. I hope you enjoyed it.

Answer 6

We believe Jesus fulfilled the Old Covenant which the Jews were under by perfectly fulfilling it, and introducing a New Covenant which is based on faith in the sacrifice of Himself to atone for sins:

This is how a Jewish Christian put it in writing to first century Jewish believers:

"The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship. If it could, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins. But those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins, because it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said:
"Sacrifice and offering you did not desire,
but a body you prepared for me;
with burnt offerings and sin offerings
you were not pleased.
Then I said, 'Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll—
I have come to do your will, O God.' (quoting from Psalm 40) " First he said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them" (although the law required them to be made). Then he said, "Here I am, I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second."
Hebrew 10:1-9

Answer 7

Jesus was Jewish, and spoke 3 lang, hebrew, arabic and greek...very common dialects even today.
The gospel was given to the Jew first, rejected, then the gentiles, meaning us.
Sometimes its called Judeo-Christian.
His birth place Bethlehem, grew up in Nazareth, and died outside of the city gates of Jerusalem.
Risen from the dead, and reigns forever.
And no other god has yet to prove different.
Even the bible shows prophets showing other gods as false,and testing their very beings.
Judiasm is OT, the old laws of 633, the laws are now summoned up in 1, Love God, and love your neighbor as yourself.
Moses wrote the first 5 books, called the Koran, and the Orhodox Jews still pray at the old city wall from the ruins of 70 a.d. praying for the new temple.
This new temple will be built according to prophecy, and Jesus will walk back into the temple, as High Priest for us.
This particular gate that he to pass thru, is now sealed by the Muslims as mockery to Christianity.
Seen first hand by this writer..its all true, and accounted for.

Answer 8

Judaism is an unpopular religion compared to Christianity. People simply like Christianity more than Judaism.

Answer 9

Because Judaism was meant to point the way to Jesus....Followers of Jesus are Christians...although a lot of Jews do not accept it,,,Jesus is the Messiah...God's plan all along was to send his Son as our Savior..Jesus is the only way to God....The New Testament is the Revealing of God's plan for us. A continuation of the Old Testament.

Answer 10

Christianity is Judaism fulfilled. Judaism as known today is missing the Messiah who they think still has yet to come. I know many Jews that know Jesus as their Messiah.

John 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
