The Jewish race of people have their own religion called Judaism :)

It's a religion, that's it, plain and simple.

So what are the characteristics of this so called Jewish race?

I see and understand what makes one a caucasian, negro, oriental even American Indian.......not so w/ a person of the Jewish persuasion. Could one explain more?

The Jews are God's chosen people. The race issue developed after Abraham begat,(fathered), Ishmael by Haggar, Sarah's handmaid.,[not the child of promise] Abraham through Ishmael is the patriarch of many people(s) we know today as Arab. It would also be accurate to classify those who follow the commandments, ordinances, and teachings of the Lord as religious. If you really wish to muddy the waters get to know a devout Jew who has become a born again Christian.

Agreed!

Can be both.

There are ethnic Jews who practice Judaism and some ethnic Jews who do not.
There are some people who are not ethnic Jews that have converted to Judaism.

Hebrews became Israel, then Israel became Jews?

Or Hebrews became Jews, then Jews became Israel?

Sorry if I sound dumb.
Yes, Hebrews became Israel then Jews.
Jews were only those of the tribe of Judah, after the religion received on Mount Sinai all Of Israel became Jews.

We are all children of God. God has no nephews, cousins, or grandchildren. We are all children of God.

According to the last will and testament of Jesus we are all children of God and he places no more respect of any race than the other.

He does expect them to worship him as God and he demands obediance.

NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE.

God bless you and keep you

No I don't believe that.

I believe, We Are All Creatures of God.In Order to be a son of God one need to believe in his name.
Or Have a perpetual covenant with the Father.
Before the Messiah came only one people knew the one true God, and even after he came only those that accept him are Sons Of God.

Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, take my yoke upon you and learn of me.


We are in dangerous territory when we exalt ourselves to something greater than we are.

let me repeat please.

We are all children of God.

All Who believed in his name, are given the power to become sons of God, John 1;

Those that do not believe in his name are creatures of God.If ALL are sons of God, Christ would not have to come and died.
Are we on the same page ?:biggrin2:

Jesus said to Zacchaeus, "Today you and your family have been saved, because you are a true son of Abraham. The Son of Man came to look for and to save people who are lost." Luke 19;10
