Does Christian faith intentionally violate and contradict the basic tenets of the Jewish faith?
-
Never before in the course of human history; until the early inception and later development of the Christian faith has one new religion attempted to 'HIJACK' an existing religion. With the primary objective of replacing, neutralizing or possibly destroying the Jewish Religion; the Christian Religion(christianity) INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED, CORRUPTED, CONTRADICTED AND DISREGARDED THE BASIC AND FUNDAMENTAL BELIEFS OF THE JEWISH FAITH. The new christian religion INTENTIONALLY MISINTERPRETED, MISTRANSLATED AND MODIFIED THE HEBREW TEXT(Hebrew Sciptures), the meanings of which were alien to Judais and distoted Jewish History. In a further attempt to gain credibility and legitimacy and deceive potential converts those "contrived prophecies" derived from the intentional modification of the Hebrew text with a 'christian bias' were incorporated into the christian dogma to advance and promote the christian theology of a 'christian messiah'. Roman, Greek pagan beliefs and other assimilated cultures that were alien to Judaism helped to further formulate the christian theology. Without the Jewish faith there never could have been a Christian faith. Furthermore, there could never have been a Christian faith WITHOUT the apparent distortion of Jewish History and INTENTIONAL DISTORTION OF HEBREW SCRIPTURES. No quoting of the gospels or NT/OT can erase this fact. Below are some of the basic tenets of the Jewish faith that were INTENTIONALLY IGNORED CONTRADICTED AND VIOLATED when the christian faith was first formulated.: 1) God has no son but the nation of Israel - Exodus 4:22 2) God says no one can die for sins of another - Deuteronomy 24:16 3) God is not a trinity -Deuteronomy 6:4,14 4) God alone is the only savior - Isaiah 43:11 5) God alone is only redeemer - Isaiah 44:6 6) God said no one will share his glory - Isaiah 42:8 7) God said that none sit beside me and there is no other - Isaiah 45:5 8) Ezekial 10:20,21,22,23 Christian faith is an imitation, not the original. For the christian faith to have chosen a Jewish man to personify a 'christian messiah' and to justify and try to validate by distortion and fabrication can only prove that there was no intent of adhering to Jewish Law and beliefs or the true meaning of a "Messiah" in the Jewish tradition . but rather it was the intention to 'hijack' the beliefs of the Jewish faith and conform them to a 'christian point of view".and create an entirely different an alien religious faith. The only commonality exists in the fact that the Christian Faith misappropriated the Jewish Faith. We are no longer in ancient times with religious upheavals. The human mind is supposed to be more insightful and discerning and not susceptible to religious indoctrination. It is time to make right of a wrong. It is now your choice to decide.

Answer:
everything Fred said in his post proves the questioner's point. As Fred says in ohter words - Christianity does claim to replace the faith of the Jewish Bible. Fred fails of course to address any of the contradictions in theologies between the Jewish Bible and the NT because as most Christians do he reads the JB only seeking to find snippits that can be used to support the NT. So he misses the entire point of the JB and ends up with the unsupportable position that it is merely a "foreshadowing" etc etc blah blah blah But i'm sure fred is a nice guy.

Old Testament prophets prophesied of the coming of the Savior. Moses said, "A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you like, me. Him shall ye hear." That prophet that was to come is Jesus. The writers of the New Testament, were mostly Jewish followers of Jesus. The genealogy of Jesus traces back to King David, and to Abraham. There is an organization today called "Jews for Jesus." A Christian Jew is called a Messianic Jew. Paul, the Apostle, was Jew of the tribe of Benjamin. Paul wrote like half of the New Testament. Paul's heart was heavy for his fellow Jews who had not accepted Jesus as Savior, as he wrote in the New Testament. The Old Testament animal sacrifices were only a foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice by God of his Son, Jesus, for our sins. But you can choose not to accept Jesus. But there's no remission of sins without blood, and without forgiveness of sins, the end is a fiery hell. Fred Hoehn, www.livingwater.bugs3.com

You are entitled to believe what you want, Simon. So is everyone. If you get upset with pushy Christians, I understand, but why feel so threatened by a mere exchange of ideas? If you feel so sure that your view is on solid foundation, why get emotional? Relax, friend. No one is trying to hurt you. 1) Of course Israel is God's first born son. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the real God. Who were the first to embrace him? The Hebrews, obviously. 2) No human being is to be punished for someone else's crime. If a son commits murder, the father is not bo be killed. This is NOT the same thing as being redeemed through God's suffering servant (Isaiah 53). Redemption is not the same thing as doing the "time for the crime", so to speak. And what is the typical non-messianic jewish interpretation of Isaiah 53? That it is the Jews who heal the wounds of mankind through their own unjust suffering, right? (--a morally repulsive thought...if someone attacks you for being jewish, MY sins are healed??--). You can't in one breath claim that Deutoronomy says one thing, while in the next make the contradictory claim that Isaiah says another. SOMEONE'S wounds heals the sins of the world (a "piercing" and "stripes", no less). Isaiah is crystal clear....and Deuteronomy is speaking of something else. 3) Where did you get the idea that the Trinity represents polytheism? The trinity IS the one God, who manifests himself in more than one way. God the Father is the author of the universe, God the Son is the "begotten not made" extension of the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the essence of divinity itself, which is spiritually present in this world (sustaining creation), and which unites both the Father and Son in divinity. Your parents are human, right? Are their minds 100% human? Yes. Is your mind 100% human? Yes. Is your mind nevertheless distinct from your parents? Yes. But are you and your parents united in common humanity? Yes. It is no different with the Father and the Son. Jesus is united with his Father in divinity (the Holy Spirit), and with his mother in humanity. Hence, LITERALLY, "emmanuel", or, "God with us." Jesus is the self-manifestation of God. And what is that line from Isaiah again? "And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." MIGHTY GOD and EVERLASTING FATHER sound suspiciously divine to me (or are you going to tell me that the ancient jews would use those terms for some relatively insignificant figure who conveniently enough is not the messiah? Despite what you've been taught, the ancient Jews themselves certainly didn't see it that way). Moreover, it is said that when the messiah comes, he will rule forever. HOW can anyone rule "forever" if he is not an eternal person in some kind of way?? 4) Jesus is God (ie, divine), and the messiah foretold by the prophets. As he himself said on the way to the cross: "Behold, I make all things new!" (He also says it in Revelations) 5) Jesus says (Rev 22:13): "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End". Jesus redemption of the world is the creation of the new one, which exists not in Palestine, but the eternal "city" of God. THAT is the ultimate "promised land" of us all. 6) Of course not. Only God is God. 7) See above. When Jesus tells Caiaphas that he is the Messiah, the Son of God, he says: ""I am: and ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven." The "right hand of power" is an expression which means that God's power will be in him...which is only logical, if Jesus himself is divine (God). 8)??? You don't have to get upset, Simon. I'm not throwing fire or brimstone at you. The fundamentalist creeps may do that, but I am not one of those. I'm just telling you what I believe to be true down to my very bones. Cheers
