People from a Jewish background face difficult choices when they come to trust in Jesus. To be Jewish, maintains Baruch Maoz, is a blessing from God. But how should Jewish Christians worship? If they join churches, there is real risk of assimilation. But if they establish synagogues, Gentile Christians feel excluded. Some Jewish Christians have tried to solve these problems through Messianic Judaism, which allows them to proclaim Jesus as Messiah while retaining Jewish lifestyle and worship. Baruch Maoz maintains that the two cannot so easily be combined. He maintains that it is possible to be both Christian and Jewish without Messianic Judaism, and he points the way for Jewish Christians to retain their cultural identity without losing fellowship with other Christians.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How should Jewish Christians worship? Does Messianic Judaism let them blend faith in Jesus with Jewish practice? Baruch Maoz disagrees, offering a better way to retain Jewish cultural identity without losing fellowship with other Christians. The Messianic Movement arose out of a desire to promote the Gospel among the Jews but what has emerged is a movement that is in some ways neither Jewish nor Christian, and that has failed in its original purpose. Most Jewish Christians do not belong to the movement and Jews are not attracted by it. This critique shows where the movement has compromised leading to the present situation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781596384064
