Too funny.

B'H, I'm the type of Jew who is recognized as a Jew by the State of Israel and by Orthodox, Conservative and Reform Jews worldwide. IOW, I am Jewish according to halacha AND I practice the religion known as Judaism, the general beliefs of which can be found here:
What Jews Believe
It is correct that I am not a messianic or any other kind of Christian/believer in JC. Such beliefs are not compatible with my type of Judaism.
To each his or her own, blessings and find your bliss and all of that. But I hope this clears up the mystery about what type of Jew Cichelle calls herself.
RelaxerRehab said:Cichelle: I have a couple of questions if you wouldn't mind obliging me. I did go to the "What Jews Believe" link you included in your post and these two questions immediately came to mind:
1. If Jews do not believe that one person cannot die for the sins of another person, then whom are the Jews "waiting" for in terms of a savior--if there is a need to have a savior--and,
2. How will Jews know what this savior will look like?

I know you said to PM you, but in the spirit of enlightening us all, can you explain what I highlighted in red?tsiporah said:I am an Israelite by the lineage of my fathers side...which is Scriptural,many of us are and if anyone wants further knowledge on that please PM me... there is history that is hidden from us.
Some Messianics may make reference to Talmud and others don't but I personally don't since it is outside of Torah (OT)and the Messianic writings(NT).
Many of those in Traditional Judaism would not recognise me as a "Jew". And I don't seek their approval by people who don't want to recognize me. I do not need papers..
But for the most part I consider myself an Israelite, we are those who are like the Original faith of the Apostles, of the First Century.
Most of us don't rely on man to say what is what but we rely on the Scriptures to say what the definition is.
Light of Mashiach This web site will give basic understanding. Not all Messianic hebrews are the same but this will give those who want to know an idea.
Messianic Hebraism is not much different than the true traditional Hebraism except that there is belief in Messiah who was crucified, died and rose on the third day--> (the seventh day on Saturday, because He died on a Wednesday, a requirement of understanding the Feasts of Yahuah will show this and it is the sign of Jonah) to return. ALL Appointed Times of Yah in Lev. 23 point to Messiah. And many people are beginning to see this.
I will say more later....

First of all, let me explain that people outside of Israel were accepted simply by learning the Ways of the Messiah/Nazarenes. There is no complicate conversion ceremony or paper work--except that your name goes in the Lambs Book of Life in Heaven. Only that one is immersed in a body of water to show that one has changed. ANYONE can become Messianic/Nazarene right in their own living room- nothing complicated.
Let me first show Acts 15:17-23
15:17 That the residue of men might seek after http://www.eliyah.com/HisName.gif,(Yahuah) and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith http://www.eliyah.com/HisName.gif,(Yahuah) who doeth all these things.
15:18 Known unto http://www.eliyah.com/HisName.gif are all his works from the beginning of the world.
15:19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to http://www.eliyah.com/HisName.gif:
15:20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
15:21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole assembly, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
15:23 And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
According original Hebrew thinking, this is the beginners package into Torah lifestyle. It is currently assumed by many that these are the only things the gentiles are to obey. But in order for the gentile to be "kosherly" accepted into a synagogue this is what they had to do. THEN on each Sabbath (Saturday) they would come in and learn bit by bit how to live by Torah and Messiah, the entire book, so to speak, was not thrown at them in one sitting. (Nazarenes composed of both Israelites as well as gentiles being one in the same Ways.)
More to Come...

tsiporah said:Strangled means that the animal was literally strangled and not killed properly. The animal must be killed in a way that the blood is drained out as much as possible. When an animal is strangled certain hormones are unleashed in the body that aren't good and in turn you eat it.
Our Creator when He created the Instructions for eating is wise. There are bio-chemical reasons as well as spiritual for eating certain foods and killing them a certain way. It is not because He simply said so and was being a harsh diety. There are scientific reasons that many are unaware of.
