Let's see - Matthew was Jewish; Mark was Jewish; Luke was Gentile; John was Jewish; Paul was Jewish; James was Jewish; Peter was Jewish; Jude was Jewish... What were saying again about the Jews not writing the Bible? By my count, I can only see 2 books in the New Testament that were NOT written by Jews (Luke and Acts, both written by Luke).

So that means that you are still a Jew....NO, well once they became followers of Christ, they were Christians....that's what it means.

Christ was a Jew also, but I think that we can be fairly confident in now calling Him a Christian.......THINK.

You are being willfully ignorant (or just ignorant). Being a Jew is both a religious and ethnic identity. My wife is Jewish, but also a Christian. The apostles did not stop being Jews when they were saved - they were just no longer under the Mosaic law (Old Testament) but under grace (New Testament).

And since "Christian" means "follower of Christ", Jesus couldn't actually be called a Christian, could He? He doesn't follow Himself, after all...

Christ was a Jew also,P>HMMMmmm...

He certainly doesn't LOOK Jewish in the pictures the Catholics have of Him.
