Isaiah promised the Messiah first to suffer and die for our sins-and then to come back to reign. 52vs13-53vs12
to be born a sign unto a virgin and be God with us "A Virgin will have a sign and bring forth God with us ."(emanuel in Hebrew)
Isaiah 9 vs 6 "Unto us a child is born a son is given, and he will be the prince of peace, the almighty God, and the wonderful counselor."
who is your Messiah-God didnt lie when he promised and without him we have no atonement for sins-
Moses-"The life of the flesh is in the blood and I have given it to make atonement for your sins."
Jeremiah 31vs31 "I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, not like the one i made with Moses, and ye shall be my people and i will be your personal God."

Yes you have a unique situation. Jewish a chosen people and you know the Messiah, Jesus. What I like in seeing this is what the Apostle Paul says in Romans 11:25-27. As more Jewish people find what you have, I see the full number of the Gentiles is almost there. This why we will see more and more unbelievers in the terms of Gentiles and more Jews as believers in Jesus as the Messiah! Cool Huh?

David,
You are a Christian. Stop this evil and deceptive form of missionizing. It degrades Christianity.

. It is, by definition, impossible for it to be "jewish" to believe in jesus. "Jewish" is, by defintion, what jews have historically and contemporarily believe. Since in neither scenario do we find "believing in jesus", then we must clearly realize that belief in jesus is not something "jewish". You can call it "biblical" (and still be wrong), but certainly not "jewish".
. On the side, the subject of Isaiah 53 is promised a "long life" and "seed" (i.e. physical children). Clearly this isn't about jesus.
. And Isaiah 7 is clearly not messianic if you read the whole chapter. and "alma" doesn't mean virgin either. You'd know that if you spoke hebrew (I guess it wasn't part of your "extensive jewish upbringing", huh?)
. On the side, Isaiah 9 can't be about jesus since, according to christianity, he's the "son" not the "father" (as the verse states). Nor did he have control of the government (to the contrary, the roman government killed him). And he certainly did not establish "endless peace".

oh, and lastly, I've decided that you truly epitomize everything I find intensely intellectually unsatisfying about christianity. (And you clearly do not understand hebrew.)

God also said if you practice all the laws but do not know me personally, you will not see me in the end (not in those words, but essentially), and there were two tribes. One good in God's eyes, who followed him and the other who practiced the laws, but did not follow God or love him...Judah. Jews originated from Judah's tribe and they are not God's chosen people, because they only practice the laws, and do not worship god. Jews who do not worship god, also, or have a close, personal relationship with him, will not see heaven.
Let me clarify, however, that being a JEW is not a religeon and it's not a race of people. It is a "way of life". A practice, essentially, so I am really confused by your question.

When you are born again you do not become spiritually Jewish, you become a Chrisian. It is stated in the Bible that both Peter and Paul both gave up their Judaism when they became Christians. You have no need of it anymore.

unfortunately your either BS'ing, or simply delusional.
because your beleif in jesus prevents you from being either.
by jewish spirituality and religion, beleif in jesus in such a way, is idolotry.
and GOD never said he'd come, as I said before, please, research, and find out what god really says... so you can see the truth.
I truly hope you find your way back to God, and away from the lies that you have had pulled over your eyes.

edit: to clarify, for those who do not understand,
there is no such thing as a jewish person who belives in jesus as the messiah or god. J4J and MJ's are CHRISTIANS who deceive people to trick them into converting to christianity by giving them the impression that they are not leaving their old religion behind. when in fact they are.

There is a movement called Jews for Jesus (Messianic Jews; those who are saved through Jesus, but still keep the OT laws). You should look into them if you haven't done so already.
