According to the Gospel of John, the Jews are not merely no longer His children, they the children of the devil. Read the test again. It refers to the specific group of people He was addressing.

You: Read the test again. It refers to the specific group of people He was addressing.
He was addressing the Pharisees, who are basically the only Jewish faction still in existence. So he was addressing the Jews. I repeat, Christianity teaches that the Jews are children of the devil. There is no way around that.
I don't know how you can claim that this is not a message of hate. Are you going to say that Jesus called the Jews children of the devil but he meant it in a nice way???
By the way, my father was a naval officer who worked on the space program for the United States. My father was not the devil, despite what you have been taught in church.
