What is the difference between a Messianic Christian and a Messianic Jew?
messianic judaism is a religious movement whose followers believe that jesus is both the resurrected jewish messiah and their divine savior.
messianic jews consider themselves to be jewish.
however, jews of all denominations do not consider messianic judaism to be a form of judaism. many christians consider messianic judaism a form of christianity.
a jew (orthodox, conservative and reformed) does not believe that jesus is the savior.
Yes to all the above. I understand that Messianic Jews recognise that Jesus is their Messiah and Saviour (and are therefore brothers and sisters in Christ with those of us who call ourselves Christians) but find the term 'Christian' doesn't describe them well, given their Jewish heritage and the sometimes dark history of the relationship between Christians and Jews.
why is this in politics? shouldn't it be in religion? maybe someone can change it...
moved it...
thanks...
