Why Did So Many Jews Reject Jesus? by ShoProperties(m): 11:29pm On Dec 10, 2016 |
If Jesus was that holy , how come we only have % 2.2 of insrealite following him . We learn valuable lessons for the life of faith when we study the attitudes of the Jewish people at the time of Jesus, and ask why so many rejected Him. While it is true that the majority of Jews rejected Jesus as their Messiah, it is important to recognise that the first to believe in Him were a relatively small group of Jews |

Jesus was the bastard son of an acclaimed virgin whose mother used hypnotic powers to delude Joseph who is a responsible carpenter into thinking he met god and god told him to accept Mary and her unborn child this child was named Jesus and his mother kept calling him son of god and this child deluded himself into believing it, he went around gathering 12 people who shared in his delusions this made him talk anyhow and criticise anyone even destroying people's market one day, this inevitably led to him suffering from delusion of grandeur his village people grew tired of his antics so decided to beat the crap out of him and hung him on the cross like they do common thieves in those days, he realised his folly and quickly asked god why he forsook him and even told his imaginary father to make the "cup pass over him", but since there's no god anywhere listening no one saved him and he died, his other disciples stole his body, claimed he rose from the dead and flew to heaven on the third day; even his mother that authored the delusion didn't see him there are deluded people who believed this man died for their misdemeanors, they pray to this dead man everyday and cover themselves with the blood of this man these people call themselves "Christians" its a pity Nigeria has a huge population of people that believes a troublemaking carpenter suffering from delusion of grandeur how can a Nigerian believe a Jew died for their sins when most of the people who saw him die didn't buy that? its like Americans claiming Murtala Mohammed died for their sins while Nigerians laugh at their delusions 4 Likes 1 Share |

Point of correction. The Jews never hated Jesus. They simply havent /never heard of Jesus the Christ until the Scammer from Tarsus brought his tales to them. You font see Jew wey hate Jew b4 esp in those days when they still thought of themselves as God chosen? To d extent of even handing him over to foreigners whom they (the Jews) hate. He rod too was hated cos he was no Jew. But Jews killing Jews for foreigners is a rare n almost impossible occurrence. But 4 "Jesus the man", leader of the Jerusalem Assembly, I tell u, they know n love that man till he was killed as a political rebel by the non Jewish elites and the Romans. History is just "His Story" n trust me, its almost n always not exactly true. But this here is what I hold to be true. Cheers. 1 Like |

Many other sides to the story bro. Read the new testament and you will understand. When I was young I experienced something spiritual and that is the only reason am not an atheist today. The words of Jesus are loving and kind. You were not there either so its better you keep your opinion to yourself instead of bad mouthing our Lord Jesus who never offended you or anyone. |

edogho:Religious leaders in Israel at the time of Jesus had status and property that they wanted to protect. They were concerned that the Romans would find an excuse to take over their religious life and temple [John 11:47-53]. They were willing to sacrifice Jesus rather than lose control. |

ShoProperties:Where on my sweet earth did u get this? You need to go further back in time and find answers like * life in Jerusalem after their return to build d temple * who the Hasmoreans n Maccabees were * Who Herod the Great is. * Who the Seleucid were * The attitude of the Judea peoples * The political climate at the time * Why there was heavy hatred between the peoples of Judea n the phareses n you'll get ur bleeding answer. I still insist that Jesus the man was killed by no Jew of that time and they. never heard of Jesus the Christ at that time of their stay in Judea. |

The Law of Moses where what there father's thought them which was more of condemnation, They resisted Jesus because his teachings was strange to what moses told them, They hardened their mind like their father's did in the wilderness, they resisted the truth but I believed the Pharisee among them were the ones behind them, The Scribes among them knew there was to be a Christ but they were blind and cannot see.Jesus Is the Lord |

xtivin: stop twisting and get info on whether he fulfilled the messianic prophesy or not tell us the prophesy he fulfilled...... |
Re: Why Did So Many Jews Reject Jesus? by xtivin(m): 2:37pm On Dec 11, 2016 |
hopefulLandlord:The prophesy is that people like you will harden your heart and refuse to accept him, then get deceived that he hasn't come until suddenly you start regretting why you had eyes and can't see |
Re: Why Did So Many Jews Reject Jesus? by hopefulLandlord: 5:31pm On Dec 11, 2016 |
xtivin: what are you tryna say here? how does this counter any of my point? Jesus did NOT fulfil any Messianic prophesy, simple if you think he did, kindly tell us those prophesies he fulfilled, educate us |

Because Jesus christus was a roman creation. Most of the characters in the story had Latin names or of Latin origin, ie Luke (Lucas), Mark (Markus), Peter ( Petros), Barnabas, Judas, Lazarus, etc. Even Mary ( Miriam) is said to be of Latin origin. The Jews find it difficult identifying with roman characters, the same way igbos would find it difficult identifying with songo, olodumare, obatala and other Yoruba mythical characters. |

To find an answer to your question op, read Stephen's valedictory message in Acts 7. This is the high point: 51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. 52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: 53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it. Acts 7:51-53 GUESS WHAT THE JEWS DID TO THE SPEAKER! This silences all the lying claims that jew would not kill jew (when even Zechariah was stoned to death by fellow jews) and jew would not hate jews(when Jeremiah was scourged and cast into a well to die by fellow jews) etc |
