They believe that Jesus was the Messiah as prophecied in the old testament. The Old testament phrophecies that a "Messiah" or savior will come and save the Jewish nation. Jews for Jesus simply believe that Jesus fulfills this prophecy. They believe that becoming a Christian fulfills them as a Jewish person. A good way to find out more information is to also look at the magazine "Israel My Glory" this magazine is produced by "Friends of Israel" this is another organization that believes along the same lines. Good luck!

they believe that Jesus was the promised Messiah that all of their laws, feasts and traditions point to. Most serious Messianic Jews do not celebrate Christmas as it is not a Biblical holiday and really has nothing to do with Jesus or His birth- Jews that accept Jesus as the Messiah know when he was born and already have a feast that points to that event

They believe Jesus is the messiah/ son of God prophecied in the scriptures. The regular Jews believe Jesus was not the messiah and are still awaiting for a messiah.

Keeping the feasts, practicing Judaism customs and ceremonies with Christian beliefs. Since Christian holidays are from paganism, I found it the best religion for me.
It actively tells Jews about the fulfillment of their religion through Yeshua, Jesus. Most of the body is made of Jews who turn to Jesus. Some are like me, Christians who dont want pagan rituals.

They are Jews, (descendants of Abraham, Isaac and jacob), who believe that Jesus is the Messiah who was prophesied that should come and take away the sins of the world.

They are a Christian Evangelical group whose purpose in life is to convince Jews that Jesus really was the Messiah. So they believe the same things as most conservative christian groups in America.

They believe Jesus was a wise prophet. Some have started that way and then became actual Christians. However, they are still racially Jewish.--- which is a very nice combination
