Differences between Judaism and Christianity

In life, there are billions of people who worship their gods and idols. There are thousands of religions on earth. Every religion has its own beliefs and its own rituals.

The Jewish people do not believe that Jesus is a divine human being like the Christians believe. Also, one of the main differences is the holy scripture. Judaism only believes the Old Testament. Another difference between the two religions is that the Jews think that in the future God will send a messiah that will rule Jewish people in the Messianic age. In Christianity, Christians believe that the Messiah has already come as Jesus Christ. Another critical difference between the two religions is that in Judaism, God is one Judaism is strictly monotheistic like Islam. On the other hand, Christians believe in the Trinity. Trinity is described as God as the father + God as the son + God as the holy spirit.”

Similarities between Judaism and Christianity are many because they came from the same root. The two religions believe that their God is the same.

Jews have the Synagogue and the Western wall of the temple while Christians have churches, chapels, cathedrals, and basilica.
