presents the development of Messianic Judaism through history as follows:
Messianic Jews believe that the Scriptures - from Genesis through Revelation - the Torah, Tanach (Old Testament)
and Brit Hadasha (New Testament) - are the word of God. The entirety of these writings is revealed both the
history and future of mankind from creation to the second coming of Messiah Messianic Judaism is the Jewish arm
of the body of Messiah and we maintain our roots, heritage and lifestyle by worshipping Yeshua Ha Mashiach
(Jesus the Messiah), in a Jewish context. We understand and acknowledge that not only was Yeshua born a Jew,
but all of his first disciples and apostle were also Jewish. In fact, Messianic Judaism was a branch of the Jewish
faith 2000 years ago. Not only is it not Christianity, but it existed before the formation of Christianity. It is biblebelieving
Christianity that actually has its roots in Messianic Judaism. As one Messianic Jewish writer once said, so
who sold the business to the gentiles? But that is another story for another time.
