Comment on Jesus was Jewish, but Christians aren't

whoa, I didn’t know there were Churches that don’t follow Paul. he’s one of my biggest issues with Christianity.

I felt like Christianity suffered a lot from so many gentiles streaming in early on without becoming Jews, and by the time it became the religion of Rome it blended with Sol Invictus, Greek Platonism and other Roman mythology, and became incomprehensible. Jesus was Jewish, the Disciples were all Jews, all the context of his teachings only make sense in a context the fresh converts lacked.

I kinda wonder about an alternate universe where a sect of Jews accept Jesus as Moshiach but not as literally God. there’d be no trinity, the parables would go into the Talmud, he’d be seen as a rebbe like Hillel I guess.
