So is a Jew who accepts the Gospel a heretic, or a soul that has been saved?
Jewish people obviously consider him a heretic, while Christians consider him one of them, I suppose.
Well, unless you are the Roman Catholic Church in the late 1400s and 1500s.
Then conversos are “marranos” (pigs), and subject to torture and persecution just to make sure the baptism stuck.
And of course, the Germans ignored any conversion, and killed Jewish people, regardless of religious beliefs.
