That table is interesting.
The gulf between jewish view of evangelicals (+35) to evangelicals view of jews (-45) is interesting, but there are other situations similar like protestants like evangelicals (+55) while evangelicals are a little cooler to protestants (-10).
edit: it seems someone is saying the columns and rows are reversed from how I read it. I don't see where that's indicated, although that makes sense if you look at the evangelical row and how most groups dislike them, which was a reported result. Poorly labelled table.

- MisterBastahrd 5y agoJews for Jesus was started in the 70s and maintains a $25M a year tax-free income through donations from Baptist and Evangelical sources. They make their rounds through the various churches every few years asking for money, and so Evangelicals have frowned upon the idea that the Jews have their own covenant with God. The Vatican, on the other hand, has stated in the past that Judaism and Christianity have incompatible beliefs and thus Catholics should not try to convert Jews.
- sudosteph 5y agoIf anyone is curious, I think this is referring to dispensationalism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispensationalism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispensationalism), which is indeed a relatively new phenomenon compared to covenant theology. It's interesting how much it's caught on in baptist and non-denominational communities in particular. Most reformed (calvinist) evangelicals are still very covenantal in their theology, but even they seem to be less strict on it than they used to be. Mainline protestants are pretty uniformly covenant theology as well.
