No. Christianity is definitely a separate religion from Judaism. Christianity is open to non-Jews, does not ask anyone to convert to Judaism, does not require people to adhere to the abominations of Leviticus, does not require adherence to any Jewish holidays or customs... it is a new and separate religion. There is no indication in the OT that the prophets who spoke of a Messiah meant someone who would establish churches of a competing religion in the heart of Jewish territory.

No, it certainly is not! (not from real Judaism as described in Torah)
Separate from the traditions of men, yes, but Yehova’s commanded worship has nothing to do with any human tradition, Jewish nor catholic.

And nobody has done that. You are stupendously misinformed.
Nope; it is Judism thru and thru.
The OLD requirements were shown for what they were: mere placeholders for the Perfect which was to come.
Most Jews did NOT accept Jesus' teachings; Paul (or someone) and others TRIED to explain to them (book of Hebrews); but they stubbornly clung to their preconceived notions and practices - none of which could cleanse a person from SIN.
....”Christianity is a new and separate religion from Judaism”....
I prefer to say it’s ‘a continuation’ since Jesus is the Messiah they look for.....most simply cannot identify Him just as some could not when he was with them.
‘Christianity excludes no man’ who chooses to acknowledge Jesus is the savior, the Messiah, God in the flesh, and the only way to escape from what is to come......regardless of their prior religion or lack of. Judaism basically excluded Gentils so if you weren’t Jewish you were doomed....Jesus, himself Jewish, bridged the gap between all men and God....the way is open for any to come who wills to.
