The Jews and Christians have fundamentally different views of what a Messiah should be. The Jewish view of the Messiah is that he will be a terrestrial monarch of a Jewish Kingdom on Earth and preside over the Earth in a new peaceful era. The Christian view of the Messiah is that he will be a Divine Incarnation and through his own expiation, purge all those who believe in him of their inherent and explicit sins.
Messianic beliefs focus on the idea of a future Jewish messiah who will bring peace and redemption to the world, while Christian beliefs center around the belief that Jesus Christ is the messiah who has already come to fulfill that role.
Jesus disciples spreaded his teaching and their beliefs that he was the Messiah promised in Jewish scripture.
Judaism does not feel that Jesus fulfilled any part of the role of the Jewish Messiah. It is Christianity and Islam that assert that he did.
He didn't. The primary role of the messiah for Jews is to serve as King, to usher in the messianic era of peace. There is still war, and there isn't a messianic kingdom, so Jesus didn't fulfill the role of Jewish messiah.
For Christians, Jesus was their saviour. However, Jesus plays absolutely no role in Judaism. Of the Jews who think that Jesus actually existed as a real person, the majority think he would have been a false prophet at most. Additionally, the Christian concept of 'saviour' does not exist in Judaism.
Pentecost is a Christian event that plays no role in Judaism.
No, Jesus plays no role in Judaism whatsoever. The Christian concept of 'messiah' doesn't exist in Judaism at all.
no not really in order to be called a christian you need to believe that Jesus (Blessings on him) is the messiah as christian means 'little Christ' 'one who behaves like Christ' do not go saying your the messiah or any thing but use him as a role model and be a good person the way he was.

The term "Christ" is derived from the Greek word "Christos," meaning "the Anointed One," and is used specifically to refer to Jesus in Christian theology. In contrast, "Messiah" comes from the Hebrew word "Mashiach," which also means "anointed one" and is used in Jewish tradition to denote a future leader who is expected to bring peace and restore Israel. While both terms suggest an anointed savior, "Christ" is primarily associated with Jesus' role in Christianity, while "Messiah" is more broadly applicable in Jewish eschatology.
Jewish concept: The word 'messiah' is the anglicisation of the Hebrew 'moshiach'. The literal meaning of 'moshiach' is 'anointed' and is a title given to any person who was properly anointed with oil as part of their initiation to serving HaShem (The Creator), examples of moshiachim (pl) are kings, priests, and prophets. There is absolutely nothing supernatural about a moshiach. Jesus plays no role in and is of no iterest to Judaism. Christian concept: The Christian concept of messiah is that of a saviour who will save all of humanity's souls from sin. Christianity teaches that the messiah is "the Word made Flesh".
Christian beliefs play a significant role in shaping perspectives on the afterlife by providing a framework for understanding concepts such as heaven, hell, judgment, and eternal life. These beliefs influence how Christians view death, the purpose of life, and the ultimate destiny of the soul.
