Dear Dan;

I would say that scripture teaches that God instructed Abraham to convert to a new faith. My point is that Biblical Judaism always looked to the coming Messiah as God's blessing on the earth. All of Biblical Judaism points to the Messiah. Isn't it clear that a Jew can recognize Yeshua as Lord and continue to celebrate the Jewish feasts and holiday's without converting to Western Christianity? Why do you think God chose a devout Jewish Rabbi (Paul) to spread the Gospel? My answer is because it is impossible to understand Messiah fully without understanding the Old Testament.

How ironic that in Acts 15 the argument raged "Do Gentiles have to convert to Judaism to be saved?" Now the opposite controversy: "Do Jews need to convert and celebrate Easter? I see both arguments as forms of Judizing. Faith in Messiah is the point. A Jew can love Messiah and celebrate Passover and Yom Kippur. A Christian can do so celebrating Christmas and Easter if they prefer. "Me first Daddy", and “do it my way”, are prideful cries. We should praise the Jew who sees Messiah in his faith and keeps the culture that God gave him. After all Yeshua was the Jewish Messiah, worshipping Him is the highest form of Judaism.

Shalom uv'rachah b'Yeshua HaMashiach - Peace and blessings in Messiah Yeshua - DLL
