"him will my Father honour" - Otherwise the God might Punish the Mankind with a New Pandemic

Otherwise the God might Punish the Mankind with a New Pandemic


One of historical mysteries is the cool relationship between Christianity and Judaism.

Judaism never recommends Jewish people to revere, respect, and worship Christ Jesus, while Christianity is based on the Bible implying the death of Christ Jesus caused by Jewish priests and authority 2000 years ago.

Although Jewish people and Christians believe in the one same God, they never think that they belong to one same religion.  And, in these 2000 years, the two religions have never been merged to form one great religion.

Indeed, Abraham, Moses, and other Jewish prophets or heroes never clearly stated that the God would send His son, named Jesus, to the human world around AD 1.  And, Christ Jesus, St. Peter, St. Paul, etc. had never told not to regard Jewish people with hostility.   

However, there have been many serious things and events that have occurred in these 2000 years but that have never been prophesized by Abraham, Moses, and other Jewish prophets or heroes who had lived more than 2000 years ago.  

And, for early Christians, to have the Roman Empire adopt Christianity as its state religion was the largest object for expansion of Christianity to the wider world beyond the Jewish community, so that they even accepted the Christian theology established under authority of a Roman Emperor.  Even the Bible written in the Roman Empire reflects their inclination to make clear the difference between followers of Christianity and Jewish people.    

Apart from these past situations, as a historical fact, today Christianity is supported by billions of people all over the world while Judaism is still practiced by most of Jewish people superficially neglecting Christianity.  As a result, there must have been confusion and doubt about power, authority, intentions, etc. of the God.

But, if this state in the relationship between Christianity and Judaism is against the mind of the God, it is grave and serous.  If the God wishes that Jewish people admit Christ Jesus and Christians accept Jewish people while they don't, the God might punish Jewish people and Christians alike.

As the first step to solve this issue, the Jewish authority should recommend that Jewish people respect Christ Jesus if not as the God but at least as the Son of the God, the Savior, or a successful great rabbi.  Christian churches should declare that the Bible should not be read as accusing ordinary and general Jewish people of causing death on Christ Jesus.

Otherwise, the God might further punish the mankind with a new pandemic after the current corona-pandemic.

John 12  King James Version
25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
