What are three things Jews and Christians of the first century shared in common?
The same God and some of the same scripture. Christian people have the Old Testament as part but not all of Christian scripture. The Jews also have the Old Testament, but they call it the Tanakh. Christians also obviously have the New Testament as well.
Which document is Christian beliefs?
The Holy Bible is the book outlining Christian beliefs. The Old Testament (roughly the first half of the Bible) is the same as the book outlining Jewish beliefs. The New Testament (the second half) is what distinguishes Jews from Christians, as the New Testament includes Christ, whom Christians regard as their savior and the savior of the world.

Were there books of the Catholic Bible added in and taken out by the Protestants?
The New Testament used by the protestants is the same New Testament that the Christian Church has always used. The Christian Church has always used the same Old Testament that Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, used, which was the Septuagint: the Greek translation of the Old Testament Bible made in the fourth century before Christ and used by most of the Jews in the first century A.D. The Jews who did not accept Jesus as the promised Messiah, in the second century removed the Deuterocanoical books from their Bible as they supported specifically Christian teachings, and are referred to numerous times in the New Testament. Martin Luther fourteen centuries later, when he was making up his own religion, removed these same books on the grounds that the Jews had. The Catholic Church indeed added in many books to the Bible, they are called the New Testament today by all Christians. The only subtractions or additions since then has been Martin Luther mutilating the Old Testament scriptures and adding words to the New Testament to support his novel teachings.
Are Jewish and Mormon the same?
No, definately not. There are many differences, but the biggest is that Mormons believe that Jesus Christ was the Messiah and Jews do not.

Additionally, there are about the same number of Mormons as there are Jews worldwide (about 14 million).

Believe in god but not the Bible?
Is it possible? According to the Bible ~ it is possible to believe in God and not the Bible. The Bible was written by human men, who some Christians believe was written by the guidance of the Holy Spirit. However, in the case of the Jewish Faith. Although many of the portions of the Old Testament of the Holy Bible is also believed within the Jewish Faith. The New Testament is not part of the Jewish Faith. Some Jews do believe that Jesus Christ was a Prophet, but will never, acknowledge Him as the true Son of God. So, how do Jews get into Heaven if they don't believe in the Holy Bible or convert to Christianity? Simple. Long before Jesus Christ ever came to this world ~ the Jewish Nation was and will always be "God's Chosen People." The Bible is basically a guide book to doing the right things in life. Also, no where in the Bible does it say, "You must believe in the Bible, and every line it states." The belief in God is what gets you into Heaven, and that's also stated in various places of both the Old Testament and New Testament of the Bible.
Do Jews believe in the new testament of the holy bible?

What is similar in Christianity and Judaism?
Both Judaism and Christianity have the same God, the one who created life and all of us. Jewish people do not accept Jesus as Messiah, except for the Messianic Jews.

Christian people want God to direct our steps and we want to be in the will of God, meaning we want God's will over our lives so God is in charge.
