Is Judaism complete without the Messiah?

Question

How can Judaism be a fufilled religion if they do not accept Christ.

Answer 1

Christianity is the completion of the Jewish religion. Had all of the Jews of Jesus’ time accepted him as the Messiah and entered the Church, there would have continued to be one true religion. But because Jesus of Nazareth was not accepted as the Messiah by the majority of the Jews of his time, a split occurred. Pre-Christian Judaism was the true religion; post-Christian Judaism is an incomplete religion because it lacks recognition of the Messiah it anticipates.

Answer 2

Judaism is complete even without the messiah.
When the Jewish messiah does arrive, we will know him by the prophecies he fulfills:
* The Sanhedrin will be re-established (Isaiah 1:26)
* Once he is King, leaders of other nations will look to him for guidance. (Isaiah 2:4)
* The whole world will worship the One God of Israel (Isaiah 2:17)
* He will be descended from King David (Isaiah 11:1) via Solomon (1 Chron. 22:8-10)
* The Moshiach will be a man of this world, an observant Jew with "fear of God" (Isaiah 11:2)
* Evil and tyranny will not be able to stand before his leadership (Isaiah 11:4)
* Knowledge of God will fill the world (Isaiah 11:9)
* He will include and attract people from all cultures and nations (Isaiah 11:10)
* All Israelites will be returned to their homeland (Isaiah 11:12)
* Death will be swallowed up forever (Isaiah 25:8)
* There will be no more hunger or illness, and death will cease (Isaiah 25:8)
* All of the dead will rise again (Isaiah 26:19)
* The Jewish people will experience eternal joy and gladness (Isaiah 51:11)
* He will be a messenger of peace (Isaiah 52:7)
* Nations will end up recognizing the wrongs they did to Israel (Isaiah 52:13-53:5)
* The peoples of the world will turn to the Jews for spiritual guidance (Zechariah 8:23)
* The ruined cities of Israel will be restored (Ezekiel 16:55)
* Weapons of war will be destroyed (Ezekiel 39:9)
* The Temple will be rebuilt (Ezekiel 40) resuming many of the suspended mitzvot
* He will then perfect the entire world to serve God together (Zephaniah 3:9)
* Jews will know the Torah without study (Jeremiah 31:33, see also New Covenant)
* He will give you all the desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4)
* He will take the barren land and make it abundant and fruitful (Isaiah 51:3, Amos 9:13-15, Ezekiel 36:29-30, Isaiah 11:6-9)

Answer 3

Of course it is.

Why? Because the messiah is NOT an intermediary between us and G-d. We don't believe that we need--or should seek--an intermediary.

The Christian idea that the messiah will in any way be...G-D....is totally foreign to Judaism. The idea that we need an intermediary is totally foreign.

The messiah will bring about world peace and take us all back to Israel, so his role is huge. But it's not integral, and it certainly has no bearing on an individual Jew's relationship with G-d.

Answer 4

Messiah is messenger, christ is anoited character, Jesus is the name, Christ is a title, and to be honost, Anti-Christ means anyone who goes against any anointed by the spirit, and there are more than one, this is not to deny Jesus, he was anointed by the spirit also, just by the way he spoke tells a story of higher knowledge, and a couple of other clues! This is not about who is right or wrong in religion, but who is doing right or wrong, the truth will shine through, to be "pure" at heart and mind, do you know what pure is, this means without blemmish, no works of the world, only fruits of the spirit that there is no-law written against, those fruits are thoughts, emotions, things that are "transferred" from one to another by not only physical deeds, but most importantly spiritual deeds, that being what we say, you know "what comes out our mouth" is what is truly in our hearts, so if you say "i hate" or dislike which is a regard also just not near as strong, understand what is in you! So let them be, and fix your own, the truth about mankind is going to be known very soon, and to be honost, to think that there is no purpose for all cultures or religions, I feel that is like stealing intelligence from that spirit!

Answer 5

He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!

Answer 6

Judaism was complete without Messiah till some persons were obedient to their prophets before Messiah but when they became disobedient & started killing them, destroyed original God's scriptures by mixing their fabricated verses in them indiscriminately to such an extent that no original scripture remained intact, it became necessary for God to send Messiah {Prophet Masiah(pbuh)} to correct & save innocent people from the corrupt Jews. So, the so called Judaism vanished. Actually no Judaism or Christianity ever existed. The religion of God called Islam came from the time of Adam himself. Only people named it wrongly as Judaism & Christianity by distorting original teachings by mixing their fabrications in original scriptures in original books of Islam like 'Taurah, Zaboor & Injeel(Bible). That's why after 600 years after Isaa i.e., Jesus, the last but one prophet of Islam, God(Allah) sent the last prophet Muhammed(pbuh) with last holy book Quraan in such sweet & excellent Arabic language that it can be memorized by even an 8 years old child whose mother tongue may not be Arabic. Thus, Quraan is indestructible till the day of resurrection as told by God in Quraan itself(Inna nahnu nazzalnazzikra wa innaa lahu lahafizoon). If you destroy all copies of quran , it will be remade as it is in the hearts of over 100,00,000 people all over the world. no other religious book has that property & hence destructible. Quraan is the last & indestructible book of God, in its original form such that not even a letter in it is changed for last over 1400 years (Encyclopaedia Britannica). Religion of God is complete by muhammed. so, no Judaism is required now. Let them wait for paraclete to come but we know that he came & went as Muhammed(pbuh) & no new prophet will ever come till ressurection. Christian & jew brothers & sisters must understand & embrace Islam to save them from going to the hell.
