How many times do I have post this?

[23] That all men may honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father, who hath sent him. John; Chapter 5

You need not post it at all as it is not relevant. Many people in the bible “honoureth not the Father” but they still don’t worship a different god. The sanhedrin did not honour the Father but Christ never once accused them of paganism or atheism. Cain did not honour the Father, and Abel did, but they worshiped the same God. The prayer of the publican honoured the Father, but that of the pharisee did not, but was still offered to the same God. Yes, the Jews do not honour the Father, but they still intend to, and that means that they do not worship a different god. They just worship God insufficiently because they do not really know him.

I think Christ says it best: those who *reject* Him *reject* He who sent Him. How does one worship at the same time one is rejecting?

Is Christ an anti-Semite for saying this?
