One of many encouraging Jewish testimonies ~ www.IMetMessiah.com
Jewish people typically DO believe in Jesus, as a Prophet, NOT their Messiah.
Jewish people typically DO believe in Jesus, as a Prophet, NOT their Messiah.
Some Jews calling themselves Messanic Jews, have accepted Jesus as their Messiah, their Lord and Savior.

As others have said, this is really not true. There have been some slanted studies that showed something to this effect, but many of them were small sample sizes and counted Messianic Jews in their count. Most Jewish people either think he did not exist, was just a guy that meant well, was a heretic, was a misunderstood teacher, or MOST just do not think about him at all outside of conversations with Christians because he is a minor footnote in their history and of no religious significance to them.Jewish people typically DO believe in Jesus, as a Prophet, NOT their Messiah.
I understand that I'm providing anecdotal evidence; but I grew up with a majority of Jewish friends, from a very large Jewish community that extended for many miles. We would talk about our beliefs at length. None of them claimed that Yahshua was a prophet. Some of them denied that Yahshua even existed. What evidence do you have to support your perspective?

Agreed Jewish people's opinions on Yeshua do vary. I think that we took issue with the line "Jewish people typically DO believe in Jesus, as a Prophet..." because they do not. There are some, but they are the vast minority, not the typical.Already addressed.
A study OF Jews, would not be completely satisfactory, without having the personal view of EVERY Jew.
The FACT is, like with most RACES and RELIGIONS, People do not all believe EXACTLY the same things.

Jews as a WHOLE defined People, do not ALL believe exactly the SAME, now or in the past.
Some Jews, in the past, believed Jesus to be a Prophet, and some a FALSE Prophet, and the same today.
Some do not believe Jesus existed.
Some in the past AND today, believed Jesus to be their TRUE Messiah, some thought Him a FALSE Messiah.
Inasmuch, any of you, being a Jew, or having Jewish friends that tell you WHAT THEY BELIEVE, so also I made a general statement.
The FACT is, in the past and today, NOT ALL JEWS believe the exact same things; NOR do Christians.

Let me first state the obvious. JFJ is a disgusting organization because their objective is the destruction of the Jewish people. As for Jesus- he has a bad reputation among us chiefly due to his followers' behavior toward the Jewish people, over the centuries. And since he cannot be separated from his followers- here we are.
I know this was not addressed to me...but.~ danny ski, ChavaK,
You both appear to have claimed you are Jews.
QUESTION ~
Do you believe there are no Messianic Jews who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior?
QUESTION ~
How does a Jew receive Forgiveness from God, without slaughtering an animal on the alter. Could you elaborate, IF you participate in animal slaughter, on an alter, or not, or otherwise how a Jew does receive Forgiveness from God?
Thank you,
God Bless,

Heber Book List, tampasteve,
Of course I do not know, any others reasoning source, only my own.
My source is of a neighbor, an American, a Pastor, and lengthy conversations with him.
His source, is via his own experiences, having lived in Israel, several times, for periods of 4, 5 years at a time. He didn't Paster IN A Church in Israel, but rather spent his time with different small groups of Jews (and Muslims), specifically getting their views, and teaching about Christ Jesus.
I'm sure as you each trust your own source, so do I.
If what I said, doesn't apply to you, so be it.
Much of what others say About Christianity, About my Race, doesn't apply to me.
God Bless,
SBC
Please be aware it is not allowed on here to doubt posters' assertions of their faith. They do not 'appear' to be Jews, they are, and are accepted on this forum as Jews, and have been for some years.
