Jews for Jesus??? If someone believes in the trinity, aren't they simply a convert?

Answer 1

no, jews for jesus are christians (most of them never were jewish anyway, btw). when you convert out of judaism to a different faith, you are an apostate jew - no longer part of the jewish faith. being a jew for jesus is about as ridiculous as being a cristian not-for-christ.

Answer 2

If you're using the NIV Bible as a source, the Jews did not accept him. They didn't believe that he was God. Some believed he was a great rabbi though, but that's not the same as being God. Jews are the same ones who as an angry uncontrollable mob, ordered him to be crucified becasue they wanted to get rid of him. And many are still waiting for a Messiah to return but they don't recognize the Messiah's name as Jesus/Yeshua. So logically it doesn't make sense that a Jew would believe in Jesus. If they couldn't accept him when he was on the earth, why would that change now? Jews do not recognize the New Testament as they are only supposed to follow the Old Testament, where Jesus is not mentioned by name.

The trinity is not a Jewish concept. It is Christian. It is impossible for a person to hold both Jewish and Christian beliefs because they are contradictory.

Answer 3

Nothing about the trinity is simple it is a counterfeit non-truth and there is nothing in the Bible that actually explains it.it is not a Bible teaching, even the so called Bible proofs are not even alluding to a trinity let alone explaining it.
Jehovah God is the Creator. (Revelation 4:11) He is without beginning or end, and he is almighty. (Psalm 90:2) Jesus, on the other hand, had a beginning. (Colossians 1:15, 16) Referring to God as his Father, Jesus said: “The Father is greater than I am.” (John 14:28) Jesus also explained that there were some things neither he nor the angels knew but that were known only by his Father.-Mark 13:32.

Moreover, Jesus prayed to his Father: “Let, not my will, but yours take place.” (Luke 22:42) To whom was Jesus praying if not to a superior Personage? Furthermore, it was God who resurrected Jesus from the dead, not Jesus himself. (Acts 2:32) Obviously, the Father and the Son were not equal before Jesus came to the earth or during his earthly life. What about after Jesus’ resurrection to heaven? First Corinthians 11:3 states: “The head of the Christ is God.” In fact, the Son will always be in subjection to God. (1 Corinthians 15:28) The Scriptures therefore show that Jesus is not God Almighty. Instead, he is God’s Son.

The so-called third person of the Trinity-the holy spirit-is not a person. Addressing God in prayer, the psalmist said: “If you send forth your spirit, they are created.” (Psalm 104:30) This spirit is not God himself; it is an active force that he sends forth or uses to accomplish whatever he wishes. By means of it, God created the physical heavens, the earth, and all living things. (Genesis 1:2; Psalm 33:6) God used his holy spirit to inspire the men who wrote the Bible. (2 Peter 1:20, 21) The Trinity, then, is not a Scriptural teaching.* “Jehovah our God is one Jehovah,” says the Bible.-Deuteronomy 6:4

Answer 4

Jews for Jesus retain their Jewish tradition and see Jesus as the fulfillment of the coming of the Messiah.

Answer 5

Jesus came for the Jews to for fill the Torah unfortunately the leaders would not accept him. he is still their for the Jews as for any who accept him.accepting Jesus as Messiah should complete the Jewish faith not lose it. I was never Jewish but find the Jewish scriptures with Jewish names enlightening.
