1.) Christians is the main core of the belief system. Catholic is a denomination, but I understand what you mean.
The Torah is the Jewish book. The Old Testament is the Torah. The Old Testament aka Torah has not been edited been stayed in it's original for. The argument people have with is the New Testament.
Gnostic gospels pertain to New Testament. False Gnostic gospels.
Catholic bible has 73 books. The book I follow has 66. Do I believe I am following the correct bible? yes
2.) I believe that if you believe Jesus Christ is your lord and savior that you will enter the kingdom of Heaven.
3.) Christian is just short for Christianity which comes from Jesus Christ. Yes Jesus was Jewish.
Jesus said follow the Old Testament rules, but Jesus also changed things.
That is incorrect. The Muslims are not following the Old Testament. They have taken big portions of the Old Testament and New Testament and changed it. Editing the stories.
There are 3 types of law in the Old Testament: moral, cultural, and ritual.
An example of the moral law would be the Ten Commandments. These laws reflect what is
right and wrong according to God, and should ideally be obeyed. The cultural law was
intended to govern that specific society at that specific time. These had to do with
punishments for crime and minute details of life applicable only to that culture and
time period. Destroying evil since it was harder for sin to be forgiven before Christ.
The ritual law was intended to point toward the coming Messiah. Once the Messiah
Himself appeared, these laws no longer served a purpose. An example would be the
animal sacrifices for the temporary remission of sins. Now that Jesus has been a
permanent sacrifice for our sins, we don't need to continue any longer in practices
intended to foreshadow that which has now come.
