The nation of Israel contained many many nations including the blonde, blue-eyed Aryans, the Indian race, the Slavic race, etc.

To confuse "Israelite" with "Hebrew" is already a huge mistake.

And to call "Jesus" insofar as he existed, a Jew is plain wrong. His mom was an immigrant into Jewish land, but came from elsewhere (Syria?) and was of another ethnic background. But she lived in Jewish Galilee, and the Jews, even back then, have a religion of law, and as such, everybody was FORCED to "be Jewish" even though the Galilee was as Jewish as the moon. One of the chief magistrates of the Galilee, contemporary to Jesus, is known to have written something like "Galilee, land of heathens, you do not care about the law at all!"

Of course, Jesus' dad was in no way a Jew either. So calling Jesus a "Jew" is akin to calling those black terrorists setting fire to cars in Scandinavia, "Scandinavians". They are, but only by legality. They share nothing with the actual Scandinavians.

There is no promsie for skin color, rememebr that. British Israelism is a cancer. The only promise is he who has faith in Christ and does as he did. Help the needy, and spread the gospel in your community and elsewhere. Spread the kingdom life, for the Kingdom is within.

Trying to be Jesus isn't what he said. YOUR interpretation of "love your fellow man as I have loved you" is to "help" and give? What about teaching a man to fish instead of giving him a morsel for today?

No, I think "Jesus" had much more elevated idea of what it means to love one another, and you're missing it by taking the Jewish propaganda along with the message of love.

Yeah I don't think "Jesus" talked about skin color. But the Israelite are described in the Old Testament, which isn't a Jewish book but a book about many many peoples.

No one comes through the father except through me.

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well.

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.

Unfortunately we are all sinners and must follow Christ and live rightfully and help our fellow brothers and community and those weak and sick.

To believe is to have faith and to do.

Follow, not IMITATE, which is mindless. Your creator gave you a mind, right? Also, "believe" is a mistranslation. "know" is much more accurate.
