      4. One simple common sense objection is that Jesus couldn't have meant just Christians because Christians as such didn't exist when he spoke

      5. Jesus only ever addressed Jews (mostly) and pagans. The Jesus movement didn't become a separate religion until long after his death.

          6. But let's say we accept Erickson's premise Jesus meant his words for Christians after his death. Does it then mean what Erickson thinks?

          It certainly is not consistent with the universalist ethic that developed as to compassion.

          Christ was going against Judaic law. But there is also an anti-Jewish slant in newer scriptures that shldn't be ignored.

          The most painful irony being that it was exactly this tribal bullshit that Jesus' ministry strove to rise above.

          If anyone is looking for a reason that church attendance has declined, consider the cruelty and hypocrisy in Erickson's remark.

          and Samaritans who followed Jewish practice but were not considered full Jews by the Pharisees/Saduccees. Post-exile repats.
