How can you pretend to know “What Would Jesus Do” if you don’t know what Jesus actually DID! (or why)
Do you get brow-beaten down by words like “racist Nazi hater” or are you steadfast like Paul, “speaking boldly, as we ought to speak”
Is there any real doubt as to the enmity between the Judaic religion and Christianity? It has been this way for over 2000 years, with neither bending in their beliefs… one worships the Christ, one says he’s a false prophet.
“Gods chosen people”… God NEVER had a chosen (race of) “people”… Hebrew men of the OT were righteous above all other men of the earth, and God spoke with these men to offer salvation from sin through Jesus the Christ… the result of this was the birth of Jesus…THE ONE and ONLY chosen of God.
And what is astounding to me is this is made abundantly clear in the scriptures…
Why would a “Christian” not know this?
Colossians 3:25
“Whoever does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism.”
Ephesians 6:9
“Give up your use of threats, because you know that He who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him.”

For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,

Galatians 6:7+8
Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return. / The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

“Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to what he has done.”

If you say, “Behold, we did not know about this,” does not He who weighs hearts consider it? Does not the One who guards your life know? Will He not repay a man according to his deeds?

and loving devotion to You, O Lord. For You will repay each man according to his deeds.

And finally:
Galatians 3:16 – Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended. 16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
