I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. I am Jewish and I am just curious how he is doing that.
jenny's dad is first a pastor at a lttle church here in odessa, and he is also a hospice minister where he needs to know the religous beliefs of the patients he visits, and also a student of theology, and he has over the last few years been getting more and more into the jewish religous sect where they do believe jesus was the messiah, and i am pretty sure he has converted, as he was offered a synogogue in albuquerke (sp) about 6 months ago, but he did not want to move away from one desert to another and move away from his kids, and yes he is becoming or already is a rabbi...tobin

Just curious. How can you be Jewish and believe Jesus was the Messiah? Wouldn't that make you Christian?

No... it's called Messianic Jews. They keep all of their customs, etc. but they believe in Jesus.
