Religious Hardtalk : Islam and Christianity in Jamaica ( 1 of 2 )
Which is the true religion, Christianity or Islam ? Is Jesus God? Does the Bible teach that Jesus is God? Why did I choose Islam? Why I’m not a Christian or Jew? Three former Jamaican Fundamentalist Christians tell their stories about how they entered Islam and how it has changed their lives. Brother Abudghani, former christian, former member of Church of God of Prophecy Brother Abdulkareem, former christian, former member of the New Testament Church of God Brother Muhammad Abdullah former christian, former member of Jehovah’s Witness The Enslaved Muslims from West Africa Recent scholarship on the Atlantic slave trade has revealed that the total number of Enslaved Africans brought to the Americas is likely to be more than twenty million. Slyviane A. Diouf, writing on the Muslim slaves in the Americas, conclusively asserts: “Therefore, if counted as a whole, on a religious basis rather on an ethnic one the Muslims were probably more numerous in the Americas than any other group among the arriving Africans”. In Jamaica from 1655 to 1807, Philip Curtin in his work on slave census, proposes 423900 Africans from Muslim dominated areas, representing 56.8 percent of the arrivals. Islam had cut across ethnic lines, social classes and state boundaries in West Africa— Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Mali, Benin, Ghana, and Nigeria, Libya Egypt (incorporating Madinka, Fula, Susu, Ashanti, Hausa and other nations) from as early as the tenth and eleventh centuries, ie long …

do you think the name “Messianic Judaism” is very effective in converting Jews to Christianity?
do you think the name “Messianic Judaism” is very effective in converting Jews to Christianity?
or is it a failed attempt?
Best answer:
Answer by Ten Commandments
No. Mostly it insults Jews
Example: A Jewish Passover is about the Exodus and is very sacred. A Messianic Passover symbolizes something else because the Last Supper was a Passover meal. To Jews this is hijacking their religion.
Plus Messianic Judaism doesn’t make any sense. The whole point is to follow the Old Testament and the New Testament but at Passover Jesus said “Do this in remembrance of me.” Why would Jesus point out the Passover if he wanted us to follow the Old Testament laws?
Messianic Jews are Christians who follow the Old Testament. It has nothing to do with lineage. This is why it angers Jews so much.
Jesus didn’t ask us to convert by making Christianity more appealing. The whole concept of using Messianic Judaism for conversion centers around deceit. That’s wrong. (They tried to convert me.)
edit: Messianic Judaism doesn’t have anything to do with blood Judaism. I know Messianic Jews and they aren’t Jewish at all. Also Messianic Judaism has no more connections than any other Christian denomination to the apostles. If you learn your history, you’ll find that the ONLY Christian denomination who can claim ANY connection to the apostles is Catholicism.
