Summary
What do Messianic Jews believe? How do Messianic Jews live and worship? Join us on Two Messianic Jews as we share with you the definition of a Messianic Jew, the core beliefs of the Messianic Jewish community, and the common ways Messianic Jews live and worship. In the end, I share how we view ourselves within the Jewish community and within the Body of Messiah. 00:00 - Definition of 'Messianic Jew' 5:18 - What a Messianic Jew is NOT 7:52 - What Messianic Jews believe 12:12 - How Messianic Jews live and worship About some key New Testament texts for Messianic Jews, Dr. David Rudolph says, "Messianic Jews referred to their religious tradition as 'Messianic Judaism,' a term that implicitly called into question the traditional narrative of the first-century parting of the ways between Judaism and 'Christianity.' It is important to recognize that Messianic Judaism challenged fundamental theological assumptions about the nature of the ecclesia and argued on the basis of New Testament texts - primarily Acts 15; 21.17-26; and 1 Corinthians 7.17-24 - that Yeshua-believing Jews had a continuing responsibility before God to live as Jews. Messianic Judaism took exception to eighteen hundred years of Gentile Christian theology and exegesis that precluded reading the New Testament in this way."

What Do Jews Think of Messianic Jews?
Release Date: 07/29/2020
Description: Jews do not all speak with one voice on their views of Messianic Jews. Some view Messianic Jews as Christians masquerading as Jews, trying to convert Jews to Christianity. There are perceptions that are neutral, positive, and everything in between. While some view Messianic Jews as members of the Jewish community, others do not. In this video, we go over these perceptions and conclude by offering some takeaway messages for what the Messianic community should react to them. 0:00 - Introduction 3:32 - Negative Perceptions 3:32 - Deceptive 7:25 - Not Jews 12:15 - Un-Jewish Beliefs 15:46 - Experiences of Messianic Jews 19:37 - Highly Negative Perceptions 23:04 - Violence 26:28 - Neutral Perceptions 29:52 - Positive Perceptions 40:32 - Thoughts on the negative 48:11 - Thoughts on the positive You can also listen on our YouTube channel Follow us on Social Media: Facebook Instagram Support links: SubscribeStar PayPal Merch shop Resources from the Episode: Document with the quotations The footage of Dr. Amy-Jill Levine's comments come from the following video - Chosen People Ministries.

What Is A Messianic Gentile?
Release Date: 12/03/2021
Description: Not many people understand or have even heard of, Messianic Gentiles. Who are they? Who are they not? In this video, I define Messianic Gentiles as are non-Jewish members of Messianic synagogues who affirm the teachings of Messianic Judaism and live according to the Jewish norms of their synagogue. I then distinguish them from many groups with which they might be easily confused, particularly Hebrew Roots/One Law adherents. I also offer tips for how non-Jews can determine if God is leading them to join a Messianic synagogue. Enjoy! _____________________________ 00:00 – Introduction 1:56 – Definition of a Messianic Gentile 5:04 – What a Messianic Gentile is NOT 7:19 – Distinguishing from Hebrew Roots/One Law 13:00 – Other Hebrew Roots Errors 25:26 – Unhealthy and Healthy Messianic Gentile Attitudes 33:09 – Are you led to join a Messianic synagogue as a non-Jew? _____________________________ You can also watch on our YouTube channel Follow us on Social Media: Facebook Instagram If you are looking for a way to support us and our work, you can become a monthly supporter on Subscribestar We also have: PayPal Merch shop ______________________________ Works Cited: Dan Juster, Jewish Roots: Understanding Your Jewish Faith Dan Juster, “The Annual Vilification of Christmas,” https://loveforhispeople.com/2019/12/17/the-annual-vilification-of-christmas-dan-juster/ David Rudolph and Elliot Klayman, “Messianic Jewish Synagogues,” in Introduction to Messianic Judaism.
