Messianic Judaism
Could you please explain some of the core differences and similarities between Christianity and Messianic Judaism? We accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. They appear to have parallel beliefs to us departing from traditional Jewish beliefs. I'm not including Jewish people that are members of the WELS and other denominations since it's the Lord's will that all people be saved through faith in Christ regardless of ancestry.
Because Messianic Judaism is a movement rather than a church body, the identification of its beliefs may not be true from one adherent to another. In general, the similarity would be a common recognition and confession of Jesus Christ as the promised Messiah. In general, Messianic Judaism would differ from our beliefs and practices in that it retains some of the Old Testament practices, and denies Baptism and the Lord’s Supper as means of grace.
