i do not mean to offend but, part of the prophecy of the end times is that the Jewish people will convert or?

Question

a great number of them? Does anyone see this happening at any time soon? And if you are Jewish could you state something that could happen that would make you doubt your current belief that the Messiah has not yet come?

Answer 1

There is avast misunderstanding here across the board of every variation of Christianity. The Jews will not convert. Jews will remain Jews - except at the end of times, many of them will understand that Jesus is the awaited Messiah.

No place in the New Testament did the Christian Jews refer to themselves as Non-Jews. Even Paul acclaimed he was a Jew from Tarsus as he stood before counsels.

You have to understand the term "Christian" is just that -and it became a denomination with "men" over time. In fact it was the secular people who called followers of Christ, "Christians" for the first time at Antioch and was initially intended as an insult or poking fun. It would be the equivalent to calling us "Jesus' mini-me's".

Christians are purely "adopted" Jews - not pagans any longer and Jews who accepted Jesus were purely strengthened in their relationship with God, through acknowledgment of who Jesus was and is. Anyone telling you contrary is so locked into their own denominational delusion they will not yield to the truth because of their zeal for their particular "sect" (denomination) more so than for the truth.

It took me many years to understand this concept and it has nothing to do with any particular church denomination (sect).

Answer 2

Many Jews are closet atheists, the jewishness is cultural rather than religious. Combine that with intermarriage and the number will continue to go down.

Nothing to do with end times though.

Answer 3

I do not know where you live, but I see it. I forgot the Hebrew name for this growing sect, but they are commonly referred to as Jews for Jesus as the first Christians were Jews. If you Google or Wikipedia "Jews for Jesus", you will get more information.

N.B.-- Jews for Jesus have been around for some time, but since time is relative, don't stress about it.

Answer 4

the Jewish people will have a time of peace, and much later on, during the tribulation, 144,000 leftover jews will become christians. something like that i believe.

Answer 5

Im going to post something from the Bible I want you to read.

Romans 11:25I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. 26And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
"The deliverer will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
27And this is[f] my covenant with them
when I take away their sins."[g]

28As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies on your account; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs, 29for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable. 30Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience, 31so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now[h] receive mercy as a result of God's mercy to you. 32For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.


The majority of Jews reject Christ because God hardened them for the sake of the Gentiles, they are STILL saved on the account of their fathers (patriarchs)

Answer 6

no, we're not going to convert. and no, we don't doubt that the messiah has not come yet. its pretty obvious to the naked eye that the world is messiah-free.

Answer 7

Have you seen a lot of Jewish people at your church? I don't see it happening.

Answer 8

There will be 144,000 saved during the tribulation

Answer 9

no - it's all nonsense
have you ever heard of self-fulfilling prophecies?
