Whats are some of the differences between Judaism and Christianity?

[Douglas]

Just curious, I relieazed the other day I really have no idea the difference.

Jesus. Christians know Him as messiah, savior, redeemer. The Jews missed those aspects and view Him as a prophet.

 

[JePe]

There are so many differences that they are completely different. Short of accepting the idea of monotheism (oops -- most Christians are Trinitarian, disregard that...), there is no significant connection between the two.

No Jew considers Jesus to be a prophet. If Jesus existed and did the things he's reported to do in the New Testament, one would have to conclude by the Jewish Scriptures that he was a false prophet and got what he deserved -- the death of a false prophet.

Christians believe that Jesus was the messiah prophesied in the Old Testament. Jews believe he was just another prophet, like Abraham and Moses, and they're still waiting for the fulfillment of the OT messiah prophecy.

 

[Mariah]

Jesus Christ is the main one

hn 5:23 That all [men] should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

1Jo 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].

2Jo 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

Judaism is purely Monotheistic, while the Christian Trinity has some Polytheistic overtones. Also Christian beliefs in God in human form (Jesus or anyone else), human sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin (the crucifixion), and ritual cannibalism (communion/eucharist) are abhorrent to Judaism. Christianity is a mixture of badly misunderstood Judaism with elements of the Paganisms of that time.
