Answer by Senior IC: UU Atheist
Christianity thinks the Messiah was Jesus, Judaism says the Messiah cannot be a man.

Answer by Don’t Litter Your Mind.
The jews are still waiting for their messiah which is pretty ironic because even if their messiah does come they will probably crucify him anyway…again.

The christians believe that jesus christ is the messiah.

Answer by Jeffrey
To Ms. Aish and others….

Ms. Aish did an excellent job. I must correct one item.

Judaism does not forbid conversion., it welcomes conversion. During he last 2000 years, Christianity passed laws forbidding Judaism from actively seeking converts. Today, we welcome converts with the willingness to learn.

It is much harder to convert to Judaism than any other religion. Judaism requires several years of study.

Answer by Super Bruin 2
Someone mentioned all the points rather well. However, the wording of one of them was a little off. Christians believe it is human nature to be a sinner, but that babies, for example are still pure and free from sin until they grow up and are capable of being tempted by the devil. Still, it is human nature to grow into sin regardless because of the tainted flesh of adam and eve, Also, an important difference is that Christians have actual historical proof of a few biblical places and events. Many people have also witnessed hauntings of demonic spirits in their homes and have uses Catholic priests to rid them through prayer through Jesus Christ. I would like to see Judaism try and explain that. It has happened in our family as well.
Last, Jesus was not a man. He was the spirit of God inside of a man’s body who lived a perfect, sinless life. Christians do not categorize different “Gods”, we just believe God to be residing through Jesus and through the Holy Spirit that is God in itself, He is everywhere. God is more complex than categorizing. I think Jews sometimes get the wrong impression
