Jews believe individual and collective participation in an eternal dialogue with God through tradition, rituals, prayers and ethical actions. Judaism emphasizes the Oneness of God and rejects the Christian concept of God in human form. Both Judaism and Christianity believe that there is one God who created the world. Additionally, both religions believe that God set out rules for people to live by but, people will make mistakes and not be able to follow these rules all of the time.

They disagree of how people make mistakes and how their sins are forgiven. Jews also think that Jesus is not considered a divine being. Therefore all holidays that have a connection to the life of Jesus are not part of Jewish life.
