Within [[Judaism]] it is a matter of debate whether all Christians should be considered Noahidesmainly due to the excessive levels of persecution against Jews perpetrated in the name of Christianity over the centuries culminating of course in the "Positive Christianity" of the Nazis during the holocaust.
While Christianity appears to conform to six of the seven Noahide laws, an informal comparison of the [[Nicene Creed#The Nicene Creed, A Noahide Review|Nicene Athanasian Creed and Noahide Law]] reveals that three major theological teachings may involve a violation of the Noahide prohibition against idolatry. *Equating Jesus [[Yeshu Notzri]] or [[Yeshua Sar HaPanim]] with G-dthe Father.*Equating the Holy Spirit with G-dthe Father.*Jesus Yeshu Notzri as Savior (in his proposed capacity as G-d)
However, these theological issues do not fit the classical [[Noahide Law on Idolatry|Jewish definition of idolatry]]. This has caused disagreement among rabbinic authorities on the question of the permissibility of Christianity for non-Jews. (All authorities forbid Christianity for Jews).
It is implied by Maimonides in his "Laws of Kings":
:Even Jesus the NazareneChristian, who imagined himself as messiah, and was executed by the court -- was already prophesied about by Daniel "Those who are violent among your own people will rise up in confirmation of the vision, but they will falter." (Daniel 11:14). There was a great stumbling in this. All the prophets spoke of messiah as redeemer and saviour of the Jewish people, who will gather the exiles, and strengthen their laws. But this one has caused the destruction of Israel by the sword, the dispersal of the remnant, the exchange of the Torah for another, the misleading of most of the world to worship a god other than the L-rd.<ref>Mishneh Torah, Laws of Kings and their Wars 11:4</ref>
Most of these texts are missing from the the standard Vilna edition of these works, and are assumed to have been deleted by the censors. For whatever reason, the Code of Jewish Law has not made use of these supporting texts.
