Good Morning Theland, something here doesn't quite gel. You bang on about the 'amazing' Jews, but don't you, as a Christian, think they've let God down rather badly? He sent his son, whom you accept (on pain of eternal damnation if you don't), but the Jews, to whom that son was specifically sent, deny him, and hence by the Christian creed, are clearly eternally damned. However, God (according to you) is still batting on their side. It makes no sense unless he told the Jews, 'Oh never mind, you're still my favourites, and if you don't want to go along with the Jesus story, that's ok - I'll just make it compulsory for everyone else' What is he up to?
