Christians & Jews

What's the difference between Jews and Christians?

Jewish people are descendants of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were the patriarchs of Israel, and the Jewish people are their identifiable progeny. Historically, Jewish people have not acknowledged Jesus (Yeshua) as the Messiah promised to Israel.

Christians are typically non-Jews who have responded to Yeshua in faith to experience spiritual rebirth and reconciliation to God.

Jewish people who acknowledge Yeshua as the promised Messiah are generally known as Messianic Jews.
