It's been said that. "The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed, the New Testament is the Old Testament Revealed."This is what chr*stianity claims. This does not make it true. In fact, if one isn't a priori committed to believing chr*stianity in the first place, it isn't "self evident" at all.
Then of course, there's the self-evident Isaiah 53... :-)
What makes you think that Isaiah 53 is a prophecy of J*sus? Just because chr*stianity believes this does not make it so. I'm sorry if this is news to you.
What do you do with the Torah? Chuck it all because Isaiah 53 is a supposedly "higher revelation?"
Arguing with you people is like arguing with evolutionists. You believe what you believe because you believe it, but you think that your beliefs are "obviously true" when they are no such thing.

Thank you. I've never been compared to an evolutionist before but there is a first time for everything I suppose. This is arguing?
Most of us Christians (a/k/a "you people") also believe that the Bible is Truth, breathed from God, from the first letter in Genesis to the last letter in Revelation. We believe this because we are indwelled by the Holy Spirit, and believe Y'shua to be the Messiah, who is the ultimate sacrifice for all sin, for Jews and Gentiles alike. A relationship with Y'shua doesn't make any of us superior to anyone else; but simply forgiven, by God's grace alone.
That being said, most of us realize that we and religious Jews both worship the God of Israel, and we love our Jewish brothers and sisters as ourselves, as God commands. Shalom.
