I have no problem with that.

However, I assume you are aware Christians believe Jesus to be the Word of God and that you do indeed reject Him as such.

There are, of course, three logical possibilities for settling this contretemps.

Christians are right and Jews are wrong.

Jews are right and Christians are wrong.

Both Jews and Christians are wrong.

What is not a logical possibility is that both Christians and Jews are right. Christ cannot both be and not be the Messiah and Savior of the whole world.

I hope you realize I meant no insult. I was trying to define positions. Jews have every right to believe as they do, and so do I. While I am not offended by Jewish beliefs that Jesus is not the Son of God, a good many Jews do appear to be offended by my belief that faith in Him in necessary to salvation.

I do not understand why this is so. Presumably in the next life (if any) we will find out which of us (or both) was wrong.

We are only offended when Christians try to convert us and tell us that we are damned to hell without Jesus.
