I don't understand why so many Christians feel the need to convert Jews. Why the urgency guys? I was a Catholic but converted to Judaism for the very reason ipwnnewbs50 highlighted and I'm grateful for their opinion. Also, but don't let that put you off answering my question :) Shalom to everyone, Gentile, Jew or not decided.

Hope this helps;
We Christians believe the the following:
Isaiah 7:14 (Torah)
Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and give birth to a Son, and will call Him Emmanuel ( meaning God with us).
Isaiah 9:6 (Torah)
For unto us a Son is born... and He will be called ...Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace..

I am growing weary of praying, hoping, and waiting, for 'Ha Geulah'. And since we know that Hashem is a G-d who hides Himself, and that He usually waits for us to take the initiative, then what about making the following actions a top priority:
1) Reinstitute the Paschal sacrifices in Jerusalem
2) Insist that Jews be allowed to pray on the Temple Mount
3) Reinstitute the Sanhedrin
4) Begin an active conversion outreach program, (Zec 8:23)
5) Lay the cornerstones for the next Temple

In my opinion, the waning interest in [Torah] Judaism could be remedied by making it a top priority to do the following:
1) Reinstitute the Paschal sacrifices in Jerusalem
2) Insist that Jews be allowed to pray on the Temple Mount
3) Reinstitute the Sanhedrin
4) Begin an active conversion outreach program, (Zec 8:23)
5) Lay the cornerstones for the next Temple

I know a lot of the orthodox community disagrees with this, but here are my thoughts.
If you're a non-jew and you don't want to be doing the minimum, and truly want to lead a religious life, CONVERT TO JUDAISM! The noahide laws are for those who don't want to devote their life to g-d to that extent(not that there's anything 'wrong' with that per se), the torah and judaism are for those who are ready to devote their life to the g-d of israel.

From a Christian point of view, technically a Christian does not need to convert to Judaism because we are already grafted in to the vine.
But I do think that it's important for all Christians to understand Judaism and it's roots because without it, we can't truly understand Christianity.

From the perspective of Torah Observant Judaism:
1) Anyone who believes that Jesus is divine, or an incarnation of G-d in the flesh (sic), etc., is an idolator.
2) Non-Jews who refuse to adhere to the 'Seven Laws of Noah' at a bare minimum, will NOT be a part of Israel's salvation.
3) Any Jew who believes that Jesus is Messiah, has stepped far outside of the boundaries of Halacha, and consequently, has become a sinner.

I respect the right of each person to believe as they will.
I don't agree with most traditional jews where the subject of Jesus is concerned, because I am a Christian who believes in Him as the Son of God, who has already come to earth once and who will come again at the end of days.
But I do know that each of us has to answer individually to the Father for what we believe and do in this life.
I dont wish to take away the beliefs of Judaism. I just wish jews could see it like I do. :o)

If you understood or could read Hebrew you'd understand exactly why Jews reject the one from Nazerath.
It is idol worship plain and simple.

@scutter4christ
With all due respect, either you are born a Jew or you are a convert. There is no such thing as "being grafted into the vine".
That is a chrstian concept that takes Hebrew scripture out of context (as many are as well). If you really want to learn about what the Hebrew bible says, learn the language of G-d. There is no way around that. All else is just heresay.
