Some Jews believed in Jesus as the Messiah while others did not.
Christians disagreed with the Hebrew Bible.
Jesus denounced Jewish leaders and their teachings.
The Romans wanted to start a new belief system to exclude Jews.
All of these factors contributed to the development of Christianity as its own religion. The disagreement among Jews about Jesus being the Messiah led to a division within Judaism itself. Jesus' teachings and his criticism of Jewish religious authorities also created a distinction between his followers and mainstream Judaism. Additionally, the early Christians faced persecution from the Roman Empire, which led to the need to differentiate themselves as a separate religion from Judaism.
