Galatians 3:7-9 ESV [7] Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham. [8] And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.” [9] So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. Galatians 3:16-18 ESV [16] Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, “And to your offspring,” who is Christ. [17] This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void. [18] For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise. Galatians 3:28-29 ESV [28] There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. [29] And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise. In other words, Paul's point of saying there is now no distinction between Jew or Greek is because the promises made to Abraham are only applicable to those who believe in Christ. So neither Jewish descent or Gentile descent matters. Christians, whether descended from Jews or any other nationality, are the only legitimate heirs of the promises made to Abraham and his seed.

None of this has anything to do with the discussion at hand which is that Jesus was Jewish. None of this says that Jesus wasn’t Jewish. Nowhere does anyone in the Bible ever say that Jesus wasn’t Jewish. Jesus died, resurrected from the dead, and ascended into heaven long before the term “Christian” was ever invented. This is why the word “Christian” is only used twice in the entire Bible. Read your Bible!

What is more, I don't think @verita84 ever stated that Jesus isn't Jewish. He said "Jesus is Lord" but never said "Jesus is not Jewish." I would read that as saying, "Jesus is Lord, and therefore transcends being MERELY Jewish," but I will let him speak for himself as to what he meant by it.

I think Blossom Rot blocked me a long time ago but I said he is Jewish and I don't care. Jesus is Lord, God is not Jewish and being Jewish does not mean anything after Christ. Through Christ you will be with God. Jews screwed themselves over by rejecting God to this very day and hating his son in their satanic hollybook, The Talmud

And being Jewish certainly DOES matter even after Christ's coming. At least, being a true Jew does. No one who isn't part of Israel, true Israel, will be saved. The thing is, that has nothing to do with ethnic origin. It has everything to do with having faith like Abraham, and specifically faith in the promised JEWISH messiah. If you are a Christian, you are part of true Israel, a Jew by faith, regardless of your ethnicity. Meanwhile, if you are a Jew by ethnicity, but have no faith in Jesus, you are no Jew at all. You are cut off from the covenant people of God. Most who profess to be Jews are no Jews at all in the eyes of God.
