When He came, it was Jesus (Jehovah Yasha (sp?); Yeshua Hammashea - literally God with Us)
I actually see myself as a “by faith” child if Abraham. That's why we refer to Judeo-Christian faith. It is a continuum from Adam and Eve.
If indeed Jesus came as the final sacrifice to atone for the sins of the world, why do The Holy Scriptures proclaim that the Third Temple will be built and sacrifices resumed during the Messianic era?
Paul kept law until his death. He came back to Jerusalem keeping a Leviticus 23 feast (pentecost) and was arrested performing a nazarite vow.
Acts 21, some 30 or so years following the death of Jesus and his supposedly atoning sacrifice, we find that James, the head of Jesus' church, commanding Paul with the sanction of the whole of the Jerusalem Church, to keep the Nazarite Vow; a vow that required that Paul bring both sin and blood atonements for his sin? Was James mistaken in commanding Paul to bring atonement sacrifices or had the Holy Spirit failed to reveal to these followers of Jesus what his death actually meant? What did James, Paul, and the whole of the Jerusalem church know that we don't today that had them continue to observe the Sacrificial System and continue to bring blood sacrifices long after the death of Jesus?
Acts 21
18 And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.
19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.
20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law:
21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.
22 What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.
23 Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;
24 Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.
25 As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.
26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.
Numbers 6
13 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled: he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
14 And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for peace offerings,

Actually, it isn't. Judaism and Christianity share some background, but, that's about it. Christianity isn't what Yehoshua taught or preached.
