Jesus Christ is the all-important distinction between Christianity and Judaism.

Originally posted by sensayuma: ↑

How can you possibly claim that "...Judaism, Christianity and Islam are essentially the same religion", when Judaism does not accept Jesus, who is such an integral component of Christianity?

Judaism completely rejects the idea that Jesus Christ is the Messiah. His mission was of no relevance. Christianity believes that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and was sent to reconcile man to God, through his death. His death was a sacrifice for the sins of all mankind.

The all-important difference between Christianity and Judaism is the Person of Jesus Christ. Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies of a coming Messiah / Savior (Isaiah 7:14;9:6-7;Micah 5:2). Judaism often recognizes Jesus as a good teacher, and perhaps even a prophet of God. Judaism does not believe that Jesus was the Messiah. Taking it a step further, Christianity teaches that Jesus was God in the flesh (John 1:1,14;Hebrews 1:8). Christianity teaches that God became a human being in the Person of Jesus Christ so He could lay down His life to pay the price for our sins (Romans 5:8;2 Corinthians 5:21). Judaism strongly denies that Jesus was God or that such a sacrifice was necessary.
