Old testament and new testament

[Chad32]

The old testament, also known as the Jewish Torah, was written about a thousand years before the new testament. They weren't written at the same time, and the Torah gives little to no incling of any messiah that will save them from eternal hell. Mostly because there was no eternal torture then. I think the closest thing is some child named Emmanuel, which isn't talking about Jesus.

So yeah, Yahweh and Jesus are pretty different, and christianity loves to incorporate parts of other beliefs into the system to help convert people, so I imagine that's why they claimed Jesus was the son of Yahweh. Personally I think if they wanted to have a softer, friendlier religion, they should have distanced themselves as much from the mass murderer as possible. Not that Jesus didn't have some bad ideas, but he wasn't as openly violent as his dad.
