[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can jews for Jesus be a Christian cult when they practice Judaism, only do outreach to jews ?
I get the heresy part, but for them to go Christian they would need to drop Saturday services. Christ rose from the dead on Sunday and the desciples started to meet on Sundays

In Christianity there is no jew or Greek, all are equal, so why the special focus on just one group

I fail to see how they are Christian if they do not embrace non jewish people[/quote]
They could go to services on Saturday, keep kosher, and bench lecht, but if they believe that Jesus was the son of G-d, they are NOT Jewish. The very concept that a mortal man (which is how Jews see him) should be worshiped as a god is an abhorant concept in Judaism. It runs counter to the very core of Judiasm.

What's bothering me, and I suppose some of the other Jews posting here, is that Lon Solomon has abandoned the Jewish religion, and yet insists he is Jewish. If that's what he wants to do, fine. But he is also telling Jews - and sending out his foot soldiers, apparently, to do the same - that that can still be Jewish even if they believe in Jesus (and worse, if they don't, they burn in hell.) Why does someone who abandons the religion get to redefine it? That privilege belongs to the people still IN the religion.

(And for the person who said the word apostate isn't used these days, true. I just wanted to demonstrate how someone like Lon is viewed from the Jewish perspective.)
