"The Church, the Pope, the Christians, and the New Testament clearly state that, according to Christian belief, the ones who killed Jesus are the Jews, and there is no way to deny or renounce this..."

Jesus -a Jew- was killed by the combined efforts of the Pharisees, the non-Jewish Judean monarchy, and the Roman procurator.

The "church" was all Jewish at first, that is, until the Apostle Paul's ministry to convert great numbers of gentiles.

According to this deluded gent, it seems to be a true Christian is to be anti-semitic.

Paul certainly did convert a number of gentiles, but he went first to those who were neither Jew nor Gentile.

"Gentile" simply means "not quite like us"; nothing more.  Mormons call non-Mormons "Gentiles".  Jews call non-Jews "Gentiles". The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel are simply a unique sub-set of Gentiles who are Israelites, but not Jews.

Matthew 10:5-6  Reads: These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: "Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans. But go rather to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel . "

The Title House of Israel was assigned to the Northern Kingdom as part of their Eternal Heritage when the Davidic Kingdom split, and its members were never Jewish.  Therefore, this is NOT a command to go first to Jews.

The House of Israel later became The Lost Tribes of Israel who won their freedom from the Assyrians ~610 BC. These now over 5 MILLION Israelites spread quickly to the West and North where they became known to history as The CELTS . It was to these non-Jewish CELTS in Galatia, etc. that Jesus first sent his12 apostles.

The Northern Kingdom Israelites were not Jews, thus were Gentiles in the Jewish sense.  But they were not Gentiles in the Israelite sense, because they WERE Israelites.  This huge nation of Israelites was simply the The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. They made up the bulk of the early Christians, and all the promises they received as Israelites were, and are, still good today.  Gods inheritance has no statue of limitations.

"Oh Mr. Bush, Are You Christian or Crusader?"

Notice how PROTESTANT EVANGELICALS are blamed for the CRUSADES!!!!!!!!!!

Again and again and again, the Vatican does the crime, and Protestants do the time in the history books and court of World Opinion. I actually know people who are so ignorant of history, that they blame Protestant Evangelicals for the Inquisition!!! And they use this to justify their hatred of Jesus Christ and His Word.

They do the same exact thing with the Catholic pedophillia issue. To them, it's Christianity and the teachings of Jesus who are guilty of victimizing children, rather than the corrupt Vatican. And the beat goes on.
