I somehow find that hard to believe.

What exactly is hard to believe?

Read the next two verses.

>27 And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table."

>28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

The whole point of this passage is to reveal this woman's persistent faith and humility, and to remind us all to approach God accordingly.

As for Jesus only coming to save the Jews and that Christianity is some massive psyop to trick the goyim; how much evidence do you really need to know that that's a silly theory?

It's a genuine concern for some people. No matter how much the Catholic Church says the Israelites don't matter, anyone who reads their Bible can tell it's an extremely pro-Israelite book despite being blunt about their failures. Fortunately, thanks to Kings 2 and Maccabees 1 and Maccabees 2, we have records of the edomites taking over Judea and becoming "the jews" while the lost tribes of Israel were scattered among the nations. Gentiles literally means nations. Jesus told His apostles to go out to all the nations and if anything the parable of the Canaanite woman means even those not born of Israelite lineage can still reap the rewards of heaven.

There you go op, a comprehensive answer to your question when your op is probably just cuckchan tier bait anyway.

>No matter how much the Catholic Church says the Israelites don't matter

The Catholic Church is the continuation of temple judaism. It doesn't say the Israelites don't matter because the Israelites were proto-catholics.

>>712507

>the Israelites were proto-catholics.

This is true but not necessarily a bad things. Many Catholics have taken a strange reaction to zionism though, accepting the claim that the jews are Israelites but also claiming that they magically turned evil when Jesus came as if lineage and genetics mean nothing (which is something the jews want you to believe.) But don't confuse me for CI. I believe anyone of any race can become and act Christian if they are good.

And stop interpreting Scripture on your own

>a whip

lel, it's a bit of cord.

Why must jews always exaggerate so much? Look at how the tables are flipped, look how they are on the floor.

Yeah, go on, try waving a little bit of cord around and winnie the pooh with moneysharks. I dare you. I double dog dare you. You'd get hooked in the gabber instantly.

well it's not just catholics the world has forgotten the modern day "jews" LARP, and such. we are in demonic times. political correctness and rabid anti-christianity and secularism is the main culture in the world right now. hopefully we can go back to a time when people aren't concerned about being politically correct and just say the truth. also i'm pretty concerned about (((them))) infiltrating conservative politics too, like dennis prager, shapiro, kushner etc.

at least we might be able to stack the supreme court with another catholic if ginsberg leaves/dies and we get amy barrett. also it is hilarious reading on reddit people complaining that catholics are over represented on the supreme court and one person was like wait, you're concerned about that but not about the insane overrepresentation of jews? 3/9 are jews and they are only 6 million, vs now 5/9 are catholic but we are 20% of the population in the US.

When in doubt, always see what the Church Fathers have to say about a particular passage.

OP, to oversimplify it, early Jesus was exclusively for the Jews, but when the Jews refused to believe he was Christ, he became exclusively for Gentiles and true believers.

To further understand this I suggest reading Paul's chapters:

Romans

Corinthians

Corinthians

Galatians

Ephesians

Philippians

Colossians

Thessalonians

Timothy

Titus

Philemon

Hebrews

Matthew basically wrote for Jews to understand Christ.

Paul basically wrote for Gentiles to understand.

Jesus even makes it as clear as he can

>And he began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and let it out to tenants and went into another country for a long while. When the time came, he sent a servant to the tenants, so that they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. And he sent another servant. But they also beat and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed. And he sent yet a third. This one also they wounded and cast out. Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.’ But when the tenants saw him, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, so that the inheritance may be ours.’ And they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? He will come and destroy those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” When they heard this, they said, “Surely not!” But he looked directly at them and said, “What then is this that is written: “‘The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?

Vineyard = Gods covenant

Fruit of the Vineyard = Righteousness and Goodness

Tenets = Jews

Servants = Prophets

Jesus says many times that if the Jews reject him then the covenant is is offering will be given to others

>When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

Your wife needs to follow the example of the Canaanite woman. Jesus always intended to come for the gentiles too, and he tested them and allowed them to show their excellence in faith like the woman did. Tell your wife to be like the woman and have humble faith like a dog

Thank you all for the answers. I can understand why you would think I was a troll, but this was a legitimate problem and for those of you who provided help I thank you again.

It's another one of these concern troll threads.

>my wife is concerned

>Jewish Psyop

Lol Ahmeds and Fedoras really are npcs

>Acts 22:21 And he [Jesus] said unto me [Paul], Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.

>Acts 10:44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.

>Romans 11:11

>I say then, have they [Jews] stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

>Galatians 3

>28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

>Acts 13

>46 Then Paul and Barnabas grew bold and said, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first; but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.
