Why do many Christians have a strong disdain for Jewish people?

[The_Patriot21]

Your question starts with a mostly false premise, being that "many Christians despise Jews" 

Indeed most Christians I know love Jews.

In fact, Christians are supposed to love everyone, so if they despise anyone, Jews Included, well I won't say they aren't Christians, but they definitely have some things to work out in their spiritual lives.

The problem  in Israel isn't  that they have a rival to Christianity but that they largely  have no belief.

This is very true,Even way back ,the very first time I visited Israel ,I lived in NYC back then- I expected to see much like what I grew up around and thought the entire State of Israel would look like the Orthodox Jew that was so familiar to me ...to my surprise it was the same as NYC being mostly secular with few ' religious" Cities or " neighborhoods.   What would provoke a non practicing Jew to jealously as they are not bound by the Law of Moses,they don't live by the Law for the most part

My point is certainly not Christians shouting or calling them to repent - Conviction by the Power of Holy Spirit through those that pour out the Love of Christ ..... People witnessing someone with many difficulties yet possessing true Peace & Abundant Joy can get someone's attention that they say "hmmm,I want that"❤️

There are words I try not to use "few, some, many, most, all" so can I ask how did you come up with "most Christians".

I don't believe that I said "most". I believe that I said "many" as that has been my experience.

Maybe it's God's plan that they remain "lost" from him until Jesus comes in glory and saves them - or not. :)

I'm quite active on social media and internet message boards. It's my experience that there are "many" (subjective term) people who identify as Christians that apparently have a strong disdain for Israel and its Jews. Perhaps you don't encounter such people in your daily encounters, which is probably a good thing.

My response concerned not Israel's problem, but Chrisian notions about Israel.

Look at it from the opposite perspective.  Why do many Jews hate Christians?  A good study from both sides is Galatians.  I have personally been told that Jews consider Christians to be unclean and disgusting.  And, that Jews are God's only chosen.  I know not all Jews think that way just like not all Christians have disdain for Jews.  Those Jews and Christians need to read God's Word from Genesis to Revelation.  He does have a plan.  It's HIS plan not man's superimposition.

Well,it's their own free will whom they serve but no doubt Gods Timing is always Perfect so I'm Confident He Draws men unto Himself and Jesus Will Knock,when He Does.... For none will have excuse

IMO  good study begins or at least includes the Gospels to the Jews. Before Gentiles were even preached to.
