Ayy good websites about what the bible really says about Jews fate? I want it from a new testament perspective, I guess a lot of the bible is left to interpratation, so it might be hard to get a good answer.

I can't remember once talking about "the Jews' fate" in church or with fellow believers. Salvation is not about being Jewish or not being Jewish.

the Bible says nothing about the Jew vs. Christian hell... islam tells muslims to ask(imams) what god thinks, and imams tell them what to do... that is the root of corruption in islam, they behave like...

The fate of the Jews is prophetically indicated in Genesis 33, when the older brother Esau is reconciled to the younger, and accepts his gifts.

Jews are our older brothers in the faith. Consider the recurring biblical dynamic of older and younger brothers: Abel is favored over Cain. Isaac is preferred over Ishmael. Jacob is preferred over Esau. David (destined for kingship!) slays Goliath -- while fighting naked! -- not his older brother. You can't dismiss this as coincidence. Similarly, in the NT parable of the prodigal son, favor comes to the younger son who was lost, to the dismay of his older (law-abiding!) brother.

The prophesies are ALL a matter of interpretation. I had always heard that 2/3rds of the population of the ENTIRE WORLD would be wiped out.

But if you really want to know why the Christians are on the side of the Jews, you have only to look at the people of Israel. First of all, they went into a desert, they worked together to produce a thriving garden, they are good and faithful people, they don't start a fight but they sure will finish one. Add to that the numerous passages of the bible that say that the Jews are God's chosen people, Christ was born a Jew and died a Jew, and you've got some pretty strong reasons for Christians to support Israel.

Looking for absolute interpretations of the bible or expecting all Christians to have the same answer is plain silly. You will get as many interpretations and there are Christians. Some claiming to be absolutely right (sound familiar?)

It takes about one weekend to read the entire new testament in a plain english version.

you are going to get a lot of bible thumping commentaries that try to create your epistemology for you in two paragraphs or less.

God speaks for himself.
Read THE BOOK. And give yourself a lifetime to figure it out.
God won't leave you hanging. And if we couldn't figure it out for ourselves, he would not have bothered to have it translated in virtually every language known to mankind, and even some that are NOW unknown.

Jesus said it is so simple a little child can discern it... so that makes you and I qualified to grasp truth.

One time through.... a couple of times a year...
and you will be able to kick Jimmy Swaggarts butt in a religous debate. MOST christians don't read bibles, they read books ABOUT the bible... to help them keep doctrinally straight... aka spiritually hogtied to some ministry or church group.

It is written, so I would suggest you take the time to read it at your leisure.
