| Secondly: Jesus had announced of a heavenly | | | | rewarded accordingly. That is why every person |

| | | | | him they fail in the test and invite wrath of God. |
| It does not at all necessarily mean that all Jews in | | | | |
| Judea participated in putting Christ on cross to kill him | | | | So, the Jews have to accept Jesus as Moshiach or a |
| mercilessly. But any number of them who practiced | | | | prophet of God to become a chosen people as they |

| | | | | attain real forgiveness of God and he has to abstain |
| It should also be noted that Jerusalem was a center | | | | himself from evil deeds. If a Christian tells a lie or |
