Very perceptive. The Christians are not Jews and do not claim to be; well, not the mainstream. The LDS are now claiming to be Christian. Very very interesting

I knew you'd understand the difference Mark.

The theology of Christianity in this aspect is an ‘also’. We ‘also’ get to share in everlasting salvation, albeit as ‘adopted sons’ rather than as true sons. In this way, we differ from the LDS; the LDS claims to be the only way and that both Christians and Jews are lesser or not fully on the correct path. We Catholics look on the Jews as ‘elder brethren’ who knew God first, and we’re just the second string, or perhaps Act II. :)
