“Judaism does not consider Jesus to be God. Are they a cult?”
No they are not a cult, but they are in error. They are not considered a cult, because they were the true religion until they failed to recognize their Messiah and thus broke the original covenant by failing to heed the words of their prophets which identified Jesus and the coming of the new covenant.
It doesn’t look good for the Jews given the following:

I need to leave soon but...
This gets a little complicated but the first conversion was from Judah there were also different sects which had corrupted doctrine, some believed in angles, resurrection, and some did not believe that. And the Sanhedrin was the group that had the Lord Crucified.
It is not all so simple or black and white and I need to go.
You have EXACTLY described YOUR churches position.
No scripture...
No revelation...
I can guarantee you that IF your church had it; they'd PUBLISH it!
Do not hold your breath...
Do NOT 'wonder' who MODIFIED your 'most correct book' over Three Thousand times!!
Does the WHO really matter??
A very simple search turned up this:

You have had numerous chances to defend your bogus religion.
Too bad you can't.
Lamest strawman EVER!
nonya
I guess you do NOT obey the bible, either!!
1 Peter 3:15
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you
It says NOTHING about any who OPPOSE you.
Poor restornu. Can't defend her chosen religion and WON'T obey the Bible.
What a mess!
Maybe when the Carmel, Indiana temple gets built, she can travel a little bit to get in on the open house they'll have.
I plan on going!

You guys getting snow?
It started here around 1PM and now there’s 3” outside where I had bare ground yesterday!
Then they must have been obtuse; unless they believed in the right kind.
But; whatever the case; the situation must have been acute.
SURE it is!
You are TRAPPED in a CULT and ALL the data shows it!
“I went to catholic boarding school. I must have been in a cult.”
You were in a cult. It was the cult of the Holy Penguin.
That’s how much you know...
I have been to Washington DC, Boston, MA, NYC, and the Detroit, MI Temple.
Why would I go to Indiana LOL
