Christianity cannot possibly be a branch off of Judaism since Christianity directly rejects the basic principles of Judaism.Christianity is a direct offspring of Judism. Christianity holds the same Bible Jews hold. Jesus did not teach a backturning of the old law, instead it was a new understanding of the old law under the same God. Is it the correct "understanding"? Jews claim it isn't. Christians claim it is. The example of the Bobs don't hold up because God is not in two seperate places. There is only one. The differences are that there is a completely different understanding of the one and only God within the two religions. Each claims the other understanding is incorrect, it doesn't mean there are two different Gods just because two different religions claim a different understanding of God. There are different understandings even within the various Christian churches, that doesn't mean each church manufactured their own God, it's just a different understanding of the same God. Even Islam claims to be worshiping the same God that Jews and Christians worship, except their understanding is even more different than Jews and Christian understanding of Him. |
