The Jews are blind, not ungodly.
Where did Jesus speak of the synagog of satan?
If you saw them as godly but following a different yet orthodox denominational theology than yours, I don't think you'd so quickly vilify them as totally anti-christ as you do.
Its kind of like building a whorehouse with full knowledge that it will eventually be filled with harlots, but convincing oneself it's still a wholesome endeavour, because said harlots haven't yet got off the bus from Vegas.Please explain this a bit further - I would have thought that because Judaism is anti-Christ any temple initiative would be as well.
I've already pointed out, no they don't all know that. Those who find out, receive Jesus as their Messiah. Like the 3,000 did on the day of Pentecost.Nonsense they all know who Jesus was and what he claimed.
What does that mean to you?the reference is to false teachers.
You are comparing the Jews to anti-christ. Explain how that isn't villifying.Nor do I vilify an ethnic group - I make this clear in the OP.
Potatoes / pototoes. The religion of Judaism is our heritage. We are the engrafted branch, not the original olive tree.It isn't about the Jews but the religion of Judaism which clearly rejects Christ as Messiah.
God is the one who told them to make animal sacifices whose blood atones for sin. So you're saying that God gave the Jews a false practice of making animal sacrifices.This false religion wants to build the third temple and reinstate animal sacrifice.
You are mischaracterizing them in a general way to fit your statements against them. But the Jews are not unbelieving Gentiles who've never accepted that God exists. Those are what the scripture calls unbelievers, no doubt some of those scriptures can be found in the old testament when a Jewish prophet, or David or others were speaking of the pagans that lived in the area where God had assigned them to be.According to Scripture all unbelievers who reject Christ are ungodly not just blind.
You quote the verse but you don't give your interpretation of what you consider it to mean.Twice in Revelation (2:9 and 3:9) The Spirit of Jesus, Prophetically through John
The prophets of the old testament suffered persecution.Again it is not the people but the religion that is clearly anti-Christ.
I noticed many believing Jews in Israel keeping their faith to themselves to avoid excommunication from their families or being fired from their jobs.
I was associated with a ministry giving support to Jews who converted to Christianity because of their love for Jesus, who were suffering persecution.
Really...I've already pointed out, no they don't all know that. Those who find out, receive Jesus as their Messiah. Like the 3,000 did on the day of Pentecost.

They called for the crucifixion of Jesus for his own sin. They saw it as no different than the crucifixion of the other two guys that day.
But for the Jews who've made animal sacrifices for centuries at God's instructions and approval., So why would that ancient way for them change to something false?
The building of a third temple is as much right for them as was the rebuilding of the second temple. Just because you can provide Christian bible references for Gentile Christians, doesn't make the Jewish bible references a false religion. It's only called the old testament, not the false religion testament.

Why do you only mention the persecution of Jews from their own ethnic group to declare proof that the Judeo-religion is anti-christ?
