Jesus the Messiah(peace and blessings be upon him) of the Quran and Islam is far purer than the Jesus(peace and blessings be upon him) of the Bible and Christianity.
He was testing her. She passed.
Jesus loved everyone and would hang out with prostitutes and tax collectors.
He wasn’t calling non-Jews dogs. Don’t read the Bible so literally.
I’ve looked all over the Gospels and have yet to find any example of Jesus talking about or to about a Gentile without referring to the Gentile as a dog and/or a swine: Except when dealing with powerful Roman authorities, of course.
Jesus was a Jew. He was the savior of the Jews. He believed in the Jewish god, and followed Jewish law. His intent was to free the Jews from the Roman Empire. Jews didn’t believe in him, but Gentiles did. That’s why the Christian church keeps misinterpreting the Bible. They really don’t have the right context since they’ve effectively segregated themselves from the Jewish faith based on the writings of non-Jews…
It was never taken to be that way.
Jesus mission only to Israel was of the same nature as God’s promise to Abraham, purely one of strategy.
“I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; SO THAT through you “all peoples on earth will be blessed through you”
Never convert God’s way of doing things into some ultimate judgement. Not only is it the most fundamentalist and close-minded way of looking at God…it also shows ill-will. We already know God’s intentions and Jesus’s intentions
” I am the door: by me if ANY man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
“I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.”
Are you treating your other children as dogs when you discipline the eldest ?
To Jesus, Gentiles were just dogs (Mark 7:25-30 as well as Matthew 15:21-28). And he only exorcised the daughter of the Syro-Phoenician woman when she begged for “scraps” like a dog. Dogs were ritually unclean animals, while he referred to Jews, for whom he believed he had a mission, as sheep.
Jesus was quite rude to members of different Jewish sects as well, calling them hypocrites and vipers’ broods, aggressively warning them that those who were not with him were against him (Matthew 12 and Luke 11).
Jesus was sent for anyone and everyone who needed his help.

Yup.

Pure, pure strategy.
