Do the jews believe in Jesus Christ, and if no, why?

Jesus was a Jew.  He never asked anybody to start a new religion.

Please look at   \nhttp://WhatJewsBelieve.org \nfor a better understanding of why we dont believe in Jesus at all!\n\nThe Christian understanding is that the Messiah, Jesus, died for the sins of the people. The Christian idea of the messiah is that he is supposed to be a human sacrifice that is the blood sacrifice necessary for the forgiveness of sin.\n\nBut we are taught in our Torah that no one can die for the sins of another. In Deuteronomy 24:16 it specifically says this:\n\nDeuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not \nbe put to death for the children, neither \nshall the children be put to death for\nthe fathers: \nevery man shall be put to death for his \nown sin (eesh b’chet-o yumatu).\n\nIn Exodus 32:30-35, Moses tries to offer himself to atone for the sins of the people. To be written out of Gd's book, means to be written out of the Book of Life, which means Moses was asking to die for the sins of the People. Gd's response is No, it does not work that way, each man dies for his own sin:\n\nExodus 32:30-35 And it came to pass on the \nmorrow, that Moses said unto the people, \nYe have sinned a great sin: and now I will \ngo up unto the Etrnl; perhaps I shall make \nan atonement for your sin. And Moses \nreturned unto the Etrnl, and said, Oh, \nthis people have sinned a great sin, and \nhave made them gods of gold. Yet now, if \nthou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, \nblot me, I pray thee, out of thy book \nwhich thou hast written. And the Etrnl \nsaid unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned \nagainst me, him will I blot out of my \nbook. \n\nThe whole of chapter 18 of the book of Ezekiel is about this idea, that no one can die for someone else's sin. Further, this chapter of Ezekiel teaches us that all we have to do for Gd's forgiveness is to stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd will forgive us.\n\nSo, the Bible is clear, no one can die for the sins of another, and this means that Jesus cannot die for anyone else's sins.\n\nChristians also believe that one needs a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin, that one who does not have such a blood sacrifice will die in their sins, and go to hell, except for the sacrifice of Jesus.\n\nThis, too, is UnBiblical. The Bible describes blood sacrifices for the forgiveness of sin in the Book of Leviticus. But it is in Leviticus itself, in the middle of the discussion of the sin sacrifices, that we are taught that we do not need a blood sacrifice to be forgiven for our sins. Offering a blood sacrifice was an expensive thing to do for the family offering the animal. Was forgiveness then, to be only for the rich? No, because if one could not afford a blood sacrifice then one who sins could bring flour, which has no blood and no life as their sacrifice, and Gd forgave them!\n\nLeviticus 5:11-13; But if he be not able to \nbring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, \nthen he that sinned shall bring for his \noffering the tenth part of an ephah of fine \nflour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil \nupon it, neither shall he put any \nfrankincense thereon: for it is a sin \noffering.\n\nFurthermore, read the Book of Jonah. In Jonah, the People of Ninevah do three things in order to be forgiven by Gd. They fast, they pray for forgiveness, and they stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd forgave them! This is exactly what we do on Yom Kippur, we fast, we pray for forgiveness, and, hopefully, we stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd forgives us. And what book do we read on Yom Kippur afternoon? The Book of Jonah!\n\nJonah 3:7-10 And he caused it to be proclaimed \nand published through Ninevah, by the decree \nof the King and his nobles, saying, Let \nneither man nor beast, herd nor flock taste \nanything; let them not feed nor drink water; \nbut let man and beast be covered with \nsackcloth, and cry mightily unto Gd; yea, let \nthem turn every one from his evil way, and \nfrom the violence that is in their hands.

Jesus was not killed by the Jews. He gave His life willingly as a sacrifice for sin. This was prophesied and fufilled. The Jews rejected their Messiah, yes. But this was also prophesied to happen. The Jews will be redeamed and saved in the end. This is also prophesied and illustrated in Romans. It is very important that you read 17 verses further...\n\nRomans 11:25\nFor I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.\n\nOnce the number of gentiles is come in, God will remove the blinders from Israel.\n___________________________\nSorry, I always want to make that point regarding who killed Jesus. Just want to get it straight. ;)\n\nAs to your detail, Christians should NEVER ignore the Jewish people. They should take great interest in, for example, their Seders. I even did an interesting study on it. http://tinyurl.com/nchkw\nI have always been a proSemitic. I also designed the Holyland Virtual Tour CD. I have been to Israel 3 times (working on 4) and always encourage people to tour there. You will learn so much about the Jewish people there without media bias to poison what you see. I encourage my kids to bless the Jewish people whenever they can. The Jewish people have come to realize they have only one true friend who has stood by them through thick and thin... the evangelical Christian. It perplexes them, but they appreciate it with tears. And I appreciate them and all of the incredible benefits they have developed for our world in medicine, technology and agriculture. Too many benefits to list here.

There are Messianic Jews that believe Jesus Christ is the Messiah,  all other Jews typically believe that he has yet to come and are waiting for his return and the rebuilding of theie Temple in Old Jerusalem.

The Jews and the Christians have the same God.  They both believe the old testament.  Jews just don't believe that Jesus Christ was God's son.  They believe in the same God, but the Jews just have a different name for God (just like Savior, Father, the Holy Spirit).  I woudl know, I'm Jewish, but I used to be a Christian.

It wasn't until many years after the death of Jesus that the Jews who followed Jesus broke away from Judaism, and it wasn't until the 4th century and the development of the Nicene Creed that most Christians came to believe in the Trinity.\n\nThere are many theories as to why Christians broke away from Judaism.  One of them is that they couldn't find converts among Jews and had to branch out to Romans and other cultures in the area.  It's doubtful they could find anyone at all who was willing to be circumcised in order to become a follower of Jesus -- well, maybe they decided to renege on that first Covenant (Testament) with God and abolish circumcisions altogether!\n\nAnother theory as to why they broke away from Judaism is because Jews followed many leaders they believed to be the messiah, but when the leader died without having accomplished his sole purpose, he was acknowleged as being a false messiah.\n\n"...they shall beat their swords into plowshares,\nand their spears into pruning hooks;\nnation shall not lift up sword against nation,\nneither shall they learn war anymore." (Micah 4:3)\n\nMore about the messiah can be found here:\nwww.jewsforjudaism.org\n.

Jews believe and still follow old testament (also follow the law of Moses).\n\nThey do not believe Jesus was the true Messiah because he was born of Mary, NOT Joseph.  Joseph is the one that is a descendant of David of which the messiah is promised.  Mary, isn't a direct descendant of David, she just married into the family.  Since David didn't really have anything to do with this child (other then raise him), they don't believe Jesus was the messiah so they don't follow the new testament.  Some may believe that the New Testament is simply stories of a very blessed man, but not the messiah.

"Jews" for Jesus are not Jews, and there is no difference between them and fundamentalist Christianity, who are the ones paying for such ministries as the "Jews" for Jesus who missionize Jews.\n\nMany people, Christians and some Jews as well, erroneously believe that just as one can be Black and Christian, just as one can be Oriental and Christian, one can also be Jewish and Christian. It is not true. The Jews are not a race. There is no genetic code passed from either mother or father to the child that makes that child a Jew. Even if all, or some, of the genetic code in a child could be proved to be of Jewish Origin, that would not make the child a Jew. Jewish law determines who is a Jew, and Jewish law is quite clear. If a person's mother is a Jew, and that person has not converted to another faith, then that person will be considered fully Jewish, so long as that person wishes to identify solely as a Jew. Although one cannot convert to become a member of a race, one who converts to Judaism does, indeed, become fully a Jew. Similarly, if one converts from Judaism to another faith, one is no longer a Jew.\n\nMessianic "Judaism" is a product of the successful missionizing campaign of such ministries as the "Jews" for Jesus, who try to make it look as though one can be a Jew and a Christian at the same time. By definition, one who believes in Jesus as their savior is a Christian. One who accepts Jesus as anything other than a man who once lived, but died without doing anything the Real Messiah will do when he gets here (hence the reason for a Second Coming!), is a Christian and no longer a Jew.\n\nThe Orthodox Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan, writing for the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America, for the National Conference of Synagogue Youth, the Orthodox Youth Group, in his book The Real Messiah, on page 21 wrote:\n\n""This brings us back to our original question: \nWhat can a Jew lose by embracing Christianity? \n\nThe answer is: Everything. \n\nChristianity negates the fundamentals of Jewish \nfaith, and one who accepts it rejects the very \nessence of Judaism. Even if he continues to keep \nall of the rituals, it is the same as if he \nabandoned Judaism completely. \n\nA Jew who accepts Christianity might call himself \na "Messianic 'Jew,'" but he is no longer a Jew. \nHe can no longer even be counted as part of a \nJewish Congregation.""\n\nWe Jews define for ourselves who is and who is not a Jew, and not the Jewish wannabees, and the targets of this newest technique in missionizing Jews. \n\nThe majority of the membership of Messianic ""Jewish"" congregations, as a matter of fact, were not ever Jewish up until recently, and this is also true about their Messianic ""rabbis."" Many of these "rabbis" change their names to something that sounds stereotypically Jewish, in order to better target those they want to convert to Christianity.\n\nAs the success of this newest technique in missionizing the less knowledgeable Jews increased, the percentage of membership of ex-Jews as members of their messianic congregations has also increased, now running about 50-50.\n\nIt is also interesting to note that a large number of people converting TO Judaism have come to real Judaism from having been exposed to Messianic ""Judaism."" \n\nAt a messianic congregation, all references to Christian theology has been changed to make it sound more Jewish, and therefore more pallatable to their targets. They will only refer to Jesus as 'Yeshua' (which would not have been his name), they will say 'moshiach' instead of 'christ,' they will say 'synagogue' instead of 'church,' and on and on, in keeping with the techniques described in the book Understanding Church Growth by Donald MacGavran, who helped the idea of Indiginous Cultural Evangelism get started. \n\nTh

I have absolutely no trouble believing in the Law of the Jews.  It is the Older Law.  If Jews choose NOT to believe Jesus was the Messiah, it does not effect my beliefs.  (Yes, I have studied Judaism)\n\nI believe in Bible so far as it was correctly translated, remembering that man compiled the pages and authorized the translations and men can make mistakes.   That the Lord does not always interfer with the activities of man and much faith is needed in this world.  (Yes, I have read the Bible)\n\nI have no trouble believing that the Angel Gabriel brought down laws for the people of the Middle East to Prophet Muhammad.   It also does not effect my own beliefs.  (Yes, I have read the Qu'ran)

Actually, No, the Jews of Jesus's day rejected the message of Christianity, as is evident from the Christian's New Testament itself. Repeatedly in the Christian's New Testament, when the Early Christians would go into the synagogues and preach, or even just explain what they believed, they would get kicked out. \n\nThe reason why this was so, is that the Jews to whom they preached recognized the story of Jesus in the stories of other Hellenist and Mediteranean gods. For example Mithra, who was born of a virgin human by a god for a father, who was born in the Winter, and who died in the Spring, and who came back to life three days later, and whose death and resurrection was proof for those who believed in him that they, too, would not die. Mithra was the patron god of the city of Tarsus, where Paul, called by many the true founder of Christianity, was born and raised. See also Dionysus, Attis, Ra, Adonis, and other gods that pre-date Christianity. Even Hercules had a human mother and Zeus for a father.\n\nWhen Christianity failed to take hold among the Jews, that is when the Early Christians took their faith to the non-Jewish world, and made it more attractive to the non-Jews by removing from it, Biblical requirements of keeping the Biblical laws, especially those of keeping kosher and circumcision.\n\nIn Jesus's day, (as now) the vast majority of those Jews who converted to Christianity were very assimilated, very Hellenized Jews, to whom the story of Jesus would have sounded very familiar.

Hi,\nAs a Jewish believer in Jesus, let me give you my perspective.  In a nutshell, most Jews aren't willing to consider Jesus to be the Messiah because (1) there has unfortunately been a lot of anti-Semitism carried out under the banner of the Church - one of the biggest reasons - (2) many Jewish people consider putting faith in Jesus to make them traitors to the Jewish people - going over to "them" instead of "us" - this is true regardless of whether someone is Orthodox or secular.  We're raised to think that if we become Christians / Messianic Jews / whatever term you like, we've stopped being Jewish.  Not true, but that's the sentiment in most of the Jewish community.\n\nAbout atoning for sin - well, most Jews today are no longer traditional and sin plays about as big a role as it does for anyone else in modern society - very little.  For those who recognize that they do need to atone for sin, in Judaism sacrifice has been replaced by repentance, charity, and fasting.\n\nHave you ever checked out www.jewsforjesus.org, you can find a lot of material there to help you understand.\n\nOh and by the way, about the prophets and the Messiah - the majority of Jewish people today would not consider it to be "God's Word".  The Orthodox (10%-20% of Jewish people) believe God gave an "Oral Law" alongside the Written Law and therefore the Bible (Written Law) needs to be interpreted in accordance with the rabbis (Oral Law).\n\nHope this helps,\nRich

Jesus is the son of God, Jews don't believe that.\n\nLook into Christianity. God sent his son so that everything we do wrong is forgiven. In the old testament, the regulations are very strict. You must do this or that. Jesus came and took away the law. He wants to have a personal relationship with every one of us. He loves us. It's not so much a religion as it is a relationship.

Jews believe in God, the same God that christians worship, the God of Abraham, the God of Moses, etc.  They believe in sin and in forgiveness.  The day of atonement is the day to seek forgiveness for sins.

It is not that the Jews are blind, it is that Christians see the Hebrew Scriptures through Jesus-colored glasses. Since they read the Christian's New Testament first, then the TaNaCH, they see the TaNaCH through the lens of Christianity. If read on its own, with no knowledge of, or belief in, Christianity, the Hebrew Scriptures would not be seen as being about Jesus.\n\nJews dont see the Christian interpretation in Isaiah 53, because it contradicts what the Hebrew Scriptures, the Bible says, clearly and consistently, in at least 3 places:\n\nIn Exodus 32:30-35, Moses tries to offer himself as an atonement for the sins of the people. To be written out of God's book, means to be written out of the Book of Life, which means Moses was asking to die for the sins of the People. God's response was "No, it does not work that way, each man dies for his own sin:"\n\nExodus 32:30-35\nAnd it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses \nsaid unto the people, Ye have sinned a great \nsin: and now I will go up unto the Eternal; \nperhaps I shall make an atonement for your \nsin. And Moses returned unto the Eternal, and \nsaid, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, \nand have made them gods of gold. Yet now, if \nthou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, \nblot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which \nthou hast written. And the Eternal said unto \nMoses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him \nwill I blot out of my book...nevertheless in \nthe day when I visit I will visit their sin \nupon them.\n\nIn Deuteronomy 24:16 it specifically says this:\n\nDeuteronomy 24:16\nThe fathers shall not be put to death for the \nchildren, neither shall the children be put to \ndeath for the father. Every man must die for \nhis own sin.\n\nThe whole of chapter 18 of the book of Ezekiel is about this idea, that no one can die for someone else's sin. Further, this chapter of Ezekiel teaches us that all we have to do for God's forgiveness is to stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and God will forgive us. Nowhere in this chapter does it say that we have to have a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins.\n\nEzekiel 18:1-4; 20-24; 26-27\n.....Behold, all souls are mine; as the \nsoul of the father, so also the soul of the \nson is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall \ndie....The soul that sinneth, it shall die. \nThe son shall not bear the iniquity of the \nfather, neither shall the father bear the \niniquity of the son: the righteousness of the \nrighteous shall be upon him, and the \nwickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. \nBut if the wicked will turn from all his sins \nthat he hath committed, and keep all my \nstatutes, and do that which is lawful and \nright, he shall surely live, he shall not die. \nAll his transgressions that he hath committed, \nthey shall not be mentioned unto him: in his \nrighteousness that he hath done he shall live. \nHave I any pleasure at all that the wicked \nshould die? saith the Eternal God: and not \nthat he should return from his ways, and live? \n\nSo, either Deuteronomy 24:16, "Every man must die for his own sin" does not mean that 'every man must die for his own sin,' and the Christian interpretation of Isaiah 53 is correct, or the Christian interpretation of Isaiah 53 is not correct, and Deuteronomy 24:16, 'Every man must die for his own sins' means exactly what it says.\n\nFurthermore, Jews read Isaiah up to (and including Isaiah 53) and Isaiah repeatedly refers specifically to the Jews as Gd's servant. Read Isaiah 41:8; Isaiah 44:21; Isaiah 45:4; Isaiah 49:3; Isaiah 44:1; Isaiah 48:20 and Isaiah 49:7 \n\nLets concentrate on Isaiah 43:10::\nIsaiah 43:10 \n"You are my witnesses, saith the Etrnl, and my \nservant whom I have chosen: that ye may know \nand believe me, and understand that I am he: \nbefore me there was no Gd formed, neither \nshall there be after me." \n\nThe above verse refers to the Jewish People in the plural, when Gd

I think it's funny how Christians get their religion from Judaism, yet they insist that the jewish ppl are wrong and that they must pray to jesus (in order to get to the "father" ).\n\n I don't believe in heaven, so I can't answer your question, sorry.
