I don't believe I ever claimed Jesus isn't Jewish.
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
Are you emphasizing Christ's deity at the exclusion of his humanity? God is not Jewish, but Jesus certainly is, and at the same time, Jesus is also God. It's a paradox, but not a contradiction.
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.
