Just one more of the many reasons Christianity rejects Roman Catholic "Tradition" as being equal to Scripture.

Christianity does not reject Catholic Sacred/Holy Tradition.

Uh....yes it does reject it. Tradition is not equal to Scripture as claimed by Roman Catholicism.

Bergoglio does:

6. The Church’s mandate to evangelize in relation to Judaism

40. It is easy to understand that the so–called ‘mission to the Jews’ is a very delicate and sensitive matter for Jews because, in their eyes, it involves the very existence of the Jewish people. This question also proves to be awkward for Christians, because for them the universal salvific significance of Jesus Christ and consequently the universal mission of the Church are of fundamental importance. The Church is therefore obliged to view evangelisation to Jews, who believe in the one God, in a different manner from that to people of other religions and world views. In concrete terms this means that the Catholic Church neither conducts nor supports any specific institutional mission work directed towards Jews.

From the traditional Mass of the Pre-Sanctified this past Good Friday, we prayed:

Let us pray also for the faithless Jews: that A lmighty God remove the veil from their hearts, so that they too might acknowledge Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Let us pray.

Almighty and eternal God, who does not exclude from Thy mercy even Jewish faithlessness: hear our prayers, which we offer for the blindness of that people; that acknowledging the light of Thy truth, which is Christ, they may be delivered from their darkness. Through the same Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. Amen.
