    Each year 1,000 Christian missionary groups, like One for Israel Maoz messianic Jews for Jesus Jewish Voice I found shalom spend $Millions targeting Jews worldwide, presenting themselves as Jewish to entice Jews to convert. They present Christianity in the guise of Judaism by calling their clergy "rabbis" and their churches "messianic synagogues," refer to Jesus Christ as Yeshua HaMashiach, ישוע המשיח or ישו הנוצרי and the New Testament as the Brit HaChadasha, הברית החדשה and their Christian religion as Messianic Judaism or יהדות משיחית.
    Calling themselves Jews for Jesus, Hebrew Christians, Messianic Jews, Messianic Jewish Christians or יהודים משיחיים, they celebrate Jewish holidays with a Christian interpretation. They hold Shabbat services, wear Jewish skullcaps & prayer shawls to create the impression that a Jew can be a Christian and still maintain their Jewish identity. Using Torah Scrolls, Shabbat candle lighting, Hamotzei & Kiddush they make unaffiliated Jews feel comfortable & welcome in their churches.

    An excellent and scholarly presentation.
    Having myself been raised as a devout Christian, he doesn't present anything here that I myself did not come across in my own studies. But many Christians do not know these things. If they did, they might have to reassess their beliefs. The incongruity of Paul's teachings alongside the words of Jesus had always bothered me. There was no way they could be reconciled. For me there were just too many holes that could not be filled. The dissolution of my Christian faith was not a quick process, and it was quite painful at turns, but I made a commitment to myself to follow the truth wherever it led me.

    As a Noahide I've already found this truth, the so called christian belief is a belief of lies and deception. The teaching of "Jesus " is'nt what's being taught it's the teaching of Paul. That's all the end. Believe in the One God and live. Shalom

    Up until the last 5 minutes, everything in this presentation was taught to me by the church as a Christian.. It is the person of Jesus that that distinguishes the divergence. Christians argued about this for years. The council of Nicaea settled this for Christians. This was a wonderful presentation.

    I appreciate your posting. However, your dating of Acts is way later than general scholarship accounts. The most likely dating of Acts is before AD 64, due to the absence of any mention of persecution under Nero or Paul’s death. Also, since there is no mention of the destruction of the second Temple (a huge event), it is safe to say it predates AD 70.

    • @CostarPelotheri
      @CostarPelotheri 7 месяцев назад

      Paul himself put only a little over 14 years between Jesus ascension and his ministry.
      2 Corinthians 12:2 KJV
      I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
      This verse would have been written around AD47

    • @jackdupp3181

      The Christian Bible contains 66 books. Of those 66 books 39 are what the Christian Bible considers the Old Testament. Those 39 books make up 75.5 percent of the whole Bible.
      The New Testament is made up of 27 books. Of those 27 books, Paul is considered to have authored 13, and some believe 14 books. Those 13-14 books make up about 28% of the New Testament. So, of the 24.5% of the Bible considered the New Testament, Paul authored about 28%. Using those figures Paul's writings make up 6.25% of the Christian Bible. 93.75% of the Bible was then written by others, besides Paul.

    I am not a Jew. I was raised as a Catholic but have different views now. When Jews talk about being "God's chosen people," do they mean as an ethnic tribe, or as a belief system?

    • @JewsforJudaismCanada
      @JewsforJudaismCanada  5 лет назад +122

      To be part of God's chosen people means to be part of the covenant people. Anyone can enter in that covenant nation by going through a similar process that Ruth the Moabite did (Ruth 1:16) by accepting upon themselves to join this people and their common destiny, past, present and future.

  • @hcharton5722
    @hcharton5722 5 лет назад +24

    We can follow Truth, or we can cling to tradition. It's a choice. Those who are insecure, need to reinforce their ethnic identity. For those who believe in a God of Truth, there is never a fear that we will lose our identity. Yehovah is as close as our own breath. I AM.

  • @EliHaNavi
    @EliHaNavi 6 месяцев назад +1

    Btw, after watching your great video (thanks for all the research and organizing it), I see some striking similarities between early Jewish Christianity and the contemporary Chabad movement. Particularly, in Chabad, most now believe that their late rebbe *is* (not even was) the messiah and that he will be resurrected as the messiah again. (Some believe that he is even God, but that doesn't appear to be their mainstream... yet)
    Personally, I feel that the concept of Jewish messiah had morphed: from something quite grounded, i.e. being an actual living king of Jews, into a part of metaphysical category. Apparently, per your video, this hashkafa had started much earlier than our times, at least since John the Baptizer. This is unfortunate.
    IMO, the Arab Muslims are more sane in that regard. For most of the mainstream of their religion (Sunni and esp. Salafists), a Caliph is an actual person, who, they believe, can be installed back. They're quite dogged and adamant in the way they go about pursuing it, politically and militarily. Jews used to have the same fighting spirit, but, sadly, it appears to have died with Shimon Bar Kohba (A"H) and R. Akiva (Z"L). We really need that spirit back now, IMO. Now that Jews have our land (almost) back, we lack the political and social will and do what's needed for true sovereignty and establishment of true messianic age (avoiding any eschatological associations, of course), because we sort of attach all kinds of otherworldly expectations to the latter.
