John 8:39-47. "They answered and said to him, 'Abraham is our father.' Jesus said to them, 'If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham. Bus as it is, you are seeking to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do.'

"'You are doing the deeds of your father.' They said to him, 'We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.'

"Jesus said to them, 'If God were your Father, you would love me; for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on my own initiative, but He sent me. Why do you not understand what I am saying saying? It is because you cannot hear my word.'

"'You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is not truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature; for he is a liar and the father of lies. But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.'

"Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me? He who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God.'"

Ah yes, the tyrant law makers! Jesus was Jewish and so were the disciples and the early Church. Romans-chapters 9-11. God's covenant has not changed with Israel.
