How similar are Adventists to Messianic Jews?

We keep the sabbath, we keep kosher. What other traditions to the gentile Adventists keep that the Messianic Jews also keep?

Do you hold passover and observe Jewish holidays as well? There are a huge amount of non-jews who like to join Messianic congregations would it be proper to call these seventh day Adventists or do we have significant doctrinal differences?

Do we have any real differences?

We have many similarities but we don't literaly observe the holy days that were instituted as a result of sin. We understand them as they relate to the shadows, which we believed were fulfilled by Christ.

We keep the seventh day Sabbath holy as defined and clarified by Jesus and we obstain from unclean foods in order to maintain good health and wellness as God's temple.

I'm thinking the way we understand prophecy is probably going to be a big thing

When I was an SDA, my local congregation and I drifted toward replacement theology. We concluded that believers must become "spiritual Israel." I understand that many messianic jews may be opposed to this theology.

Messianics have no officially stated beliefs and they vary from group to group depends on their background (what they original were).

But from what I gather when I was fellowshipping with them on another forum (for 2-3 years), there is really nothing in common besides the 7th-day sabbath.

In fact, if you remove the sabbath belief, half of them are just about evangelicals. If you remove the Messiah part, the other half are just about rabbinicals.
