Interestingly enough one must really torture the biblical text to avoid the obvious conclusion that the Jesus-as-described-in-the-NT was Jewish, which makes these racist offshoots pretty incompatible with the conservative principle of biblical inerrancy.

We have to accept the fact that the Testaments are just that: statements of faith, written years after the fact and often based on second or third-hand testimony. They make no claim to be a comprehensive history of biography of Jesus.
