I have been made fun of and abhorred by many "Christians" for practicing a form of Judaism, because most Christians believe Messianics to be heretics and untrustworthy, saying that trying to turn to the law is evil and SOME Christians believe that Messianics are going to hell because we follow the law and try to convert us to Christianity. (Primarily Baptists and Catholics).
I have Jewish ancestry, had a formal conversion to Judaism, and have been messianic all my life. I love it.
As you see, Messianic Judaism would rather gentiles "convert" to Messianic Judaism and follow the entire law, but currently we accept "Christians" as being saved, but without guidance. That is why most Messianics try to go evangelize to the Christians and turn them back to their Jewish roots. While at the same time informing our own people about the Messiah.
I myself am a convert, and at least one of my great grandparents were Jewish, and tradition has been passed down the family line.
Christianity without it's jewish roots is missing almost it's entire body but it's head. (Aka the Messiah). And is basically lawless and herecy. Judaism without Yeshua, is missing it's fulfillment. Essentialy having the order of the law, but without the blessing of the Messiah.
Messianic Judaism (or origional "Christianity") contains both the structure of the law and the love of Israel, along with the knowledge of Yeshua forgiving any "errors" we may make in breaking a law.
(Talmudic tradition holds that the Azazel stopped turning white about 40 years before the destruction of the Temple, (The time Yeshua died and ressurected.)
Sadly, about 300Ad, the origional Jewish believers were overwhelmed by the gentile majority, and Catholicism emerged. Without the restraint and order of Judaic law, the Popes eradicated everything that was Messianic Jewish and "Christianity" was born. Even the Shabbat was changed to Sunday. And all of our people were persecuted.
Since the second temple was destroyed, Messianics believe that the Sacrificial part of the Mosaic covenant was fullfilled in Yeshua.
(Yeshua's blood being the atoning sacrifice)
Which leaves Messianics with their sins being forgiven, however unlike Christians, they still have to follow all of the law pertaining to the Jewish people because the law wasn't abolished, but fullfilled. (Besides, most Tradition and the entire law are what makes life worth living).
Hmm, we love Israel, wear magen davids, give our boys B'rit Milah, keep the Commanded Holy Days, have bar and bat mitzvas, learn hebrew, some of us learn Modern Hebrew, are shunned by most Christians and considered unholy because we keep the 613 laws + the Laws of Yeshua, Recite the Shema every Shabbat, observe Shabbat on friday night-saturday night, have mikvahs, wear kippas and Tapels (those who are willing) and believe that Yeshua is HaMashiach and he and HaShem are Echad. Read from a siddur-
Sound the shofar to Tekiah, Teruah! Observe Yom Kippur, mourn on Yom HaShoah, Love the land of Eretz Israel and want to join the army in defence of our homeland, and did I mention that most Christians HATE us for being jewish? They call us f**king jews, and make many anti-semetic attacks against us. Yeshua and Torah are inseperable and an intergal part of Messianic Jews and Messianic Believers lives. Am Israel Chai!
bas mitzve is not a mitzva, it's actually a bad reform habit which is terrible. Shema should be recited every day twice a day (BshochVecha Vbkoomecha.)I saw in the Adon Oilam Video How you Put your tallises, and you do not fullfil the Mitzva that way (The Mitzva is Leitatef (To surround yourself by) the talis, not to wear it like a scar).
Sephardics call Ashkenazi not jewish, Orthodox call reform and secular jews not Jewish, Reforms call Hassids not jewish, Israeli Orthodox call American orthodox not jewish. The most jewish thing in the world, is for Jews to all each other Not Jewish. Clearly Messianics are Jewish, along with the Orthodox, Secular (as in blood decendents), Reform, the various sub-races, Etheopian, ashkenazi, sephardic etc. Case in point, Messianics are Jewish.
This is Judaism because we keep the 613 laws (though the interpretation of say the Tallit, and the Bar Mitzvah, is of a Reform/Non-Ultra Orthodox interpretation.)
Serve the same G-d, are ardent Zionists, will defend Jews and Judaism against Catholicism and other forms of Christianity which seek to utterly destroy Jewdism (By teaching that the 613 aren't important, just the ten. This teaching is utterly abhorrent to G-d)
However, with the sacrificial system on hold since the destruction of

You are speaking nonsense. Every man who's mother is jewish, or did a "Giyur Kehilchasoi" is a jew, To all opinions.
If your mother is jewish, you are jewish. the correct question is not how are you jewish, but how is this judaism?
