[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of the early Christians were Jews. The church in Jerusalem was a big deal. [/quote]

Not in the great scheme of things Jewish. No jew even wrote about Jesus except maybe one one time.  Christianity took off when it became part of the Roman religion. Either way, its obvious that God wasnt convincing to the Jews enough to make it worthwhile to their lives and future lives. It was a bust for the people it was intended for. [/quote]
He didn't come just for the Jews. You people need to take a Bible Study class.

Isaiah 49:6 — New International Version (2011) (NIV)

6 he says:

“It is too small a thing for you to be my servant to restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back those of Israel I have kept.

I will also make you a light for the Gentiles, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.” [/quote]

But even this one line says the jews will be a light for the gentiles. Not that he will abandon the jews. [/quote]

Why would he abandon his chosen people? Christians are supposed to follow the Jews, who are his chosen people. [/quote]

Exactly. And they dont. So God wasnt successful for the jews or the gentiles. [/quote]

You can’t define “success” in human terms. What we know for sure is that the Jews are God’s chosen people, and everyone else should be supporting them. Why everyone else should be supporting them is unclear, because they aren’t chosen anyway, but if you believe this, you shouldn’t be asking this question in the first place.[/quote]
