In fact... let me see if I’ve got this: you believe that the Old Testament prophecies a Messiah who will come and convert Jews away from Judaism.

In simple terms: no.

I can’t imagine where you get that out of anything I posted!

Perhaps it depends on what you consider to be Judaism.

Yeshua came to fulfill and reinforce the true worship that Judaism was supposed to be under Torah.

Unfortunately, at some point after the Maccabean revolt, Pharisee-ism replaced what Yehova had ordained at Sinai with a pile of humanism contained in the Takanot and Ma’asim of the Pharisees ordinances. This humanism is what Yeshua took to the cross with him, thus restoring what Judaism was supposed to have been, for those that followed him.

Torah is the backbone of Yeshua’s Way that he declared was a narrow gate that few would find. That is the clear message in Matthew 5, that set the tone and path of his ministry.

Billions claim to follow Yeshua, but truly few do find his Way.
