Jews Reject Christian Futurism


Keeping Jews Jewish

Some Jews know the New Testament better than a lot of Christians. They have nothing to protect, so they approach the text honestly and have no problem seeing that Jesus predicted a first-century return. Since Christian futurism obviously implies the failure of Christ’s predictions, Jews deem him a false prophet to be utterly rejected. They are on solid biblical ground for declaring this rejection (Deut. 18:20-22). The following are questions Jews pose to steer people away from Jesus and Christianity. Shame on today’s prophecy teachers who give the enemies of Christ occasion to condemn him!
