Why I LEFT Judaism!

[@TheJewishCatholic]

People who don’t like this video claim “you were never a Jew” or “you never lived in Judaism” or “you betrayed your ancestors”. Here are the facts: 1) I’m a Jew through maternal lineage (though paternal as well). Parents became Christian in their 20’s. I became a Baal Teshuva in 2010. As I became more serious about my faith I lived according to Orthodox Halakha. 2) Judaism is the acceptance of Torah Shebichtav and Torah Sheba’al Peh as passed down from Moshe through to the sages of the Great Court. 3) Catholicism is the true continuation and fulfillment of the Faith of the ancient Hebrews (aka Temple Time Judaism) and thus me becoming Catholic, is to fulfill my Jewish identity.

[@salc8870]

You just skipped over the possibility of Karaite Judaism and went straight to idolatry. So even if Orthodox Judaism didn’t hold all your answers, why not some other branch? It is either Orthodox or nothing lol? What have you gained by not keeping Jewish rituals and adopting Catholic ones that are completely foreign to anything in the Tanakh?

[@salc8870]

Fulfill your Jewish identity by what praying in Latin lol? Why not Greek Orthodoxy lol? You sound confused rather than enlightened. Your people have been murdered in the past by members of the Church you have joined.

[@TheJewishCatholic]

Who told you I never looked into the Karaite movement? Of course I did but that system is awfully flawed. Oral Torah is essential. God has always operated in this way: written instruction, oral instruction and a living body of authority to guide His people. In the ancient Faith it was: Torah Shebichtav, Torah Sheba’al Peh, and the Great Court. This found its continuation and fulfillment through Yeshua Our messiah: Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition and the Magisterium. Additionally, I still honor my Jewish heritage through customs that do not go against Church teaching. I speak on that on other videos of mine.

[@salc8870]

@@TheJewishCatholic You’re the one complaining about all the differences of opinion one finds in the Gemara and halakhic sources. Whatever the case is Catholicism didn’t inherit any Torah Sheb’al Peh, because they made void even the written Torah in many instances. You have essentially just replaced Jewish observances like Shabbat, Pesach, Chag Hamatzot, Shavuot, Sukkot, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur with a new set of holy days and liturgy. Do you even pray in Hebrew? No more tallit? Why not? Why are you so goyish in your observance when Yeshua himself kept these traditions? Your only gripe is that you cannot know for sure the details of how exactly all these things should be properly observed, so with the Catholics you observe Saints and icons instead.

I can't thank you enough for posting this. I've been trying to put into words why Messianic Judaism wasn't something I could actively practice.

For 3 years I tried to practice all of the feasts in the Messianic tradition the way Jesus would have, but then I realized there's no way that's possible because the temple was destroyed. I believe the Holy Spirit was calling me back home to the Catholic Church through my frustration of not being able to keep the Messianic feasts and kosher. Thank you again Daniel! God bless!

Thanks be to God! Your story was very heartening and made so much sense. As a Roman Catholic that has studied Sacred Scripture, the Patristics, and with a background in philosophy, all of your points were well-reasoned and thorough. Your conclusion is my own, such that I argue that the faithful during Apostolic times shouldn't have accepted the name first given to them in Antioch, i.e. "Christian," but rather kept stating that which we are: New Covenant Jews/New Law Jews/New Testament Jews. I get that having a new name would make it more amenable to the Gentiles at the time and onwards, but on the other hand, it would go a long way to helping Jews now realize the call that God had given them from the beginning, and is still giving them now. They need to overcome the rabbis' mis-instruction, and read the Tanakh for themselves. Start with Matthew/Levi's genealogy at the beginning of his gospel, which was the first one written (for a reason). May God help them all to hear His voice and be open to His Word, Love and Truth. The sooner they do this, then the sooner that prophecy of Paul can be fulfilled, and then hopefully sooner will His return come to pass. God help us, and deliver us from evil. Amen.

[@kyrptonite1825]

Rochester, I see multiple problems with Judaism (no offense): 1. Moral issues with things like allowances for contraception and abortion 2. A lack of miracles that point to it as truth over Christianity. Miracles are one of the main evidences for divine revelation 3. A lack of unity. There were the two schools back then. Plus all of the different types from Essene, to Pharaseeical, to Sadducee, and so on. Now, there’s reform, conservative, Orthodox, and ultra Orthodox. As well as the Ashkenazi, the Sephardic, the Yemenite, etc. even the Talmud seems to just be arguments from different sages without much congruity. 4. There is a 2,000 year and counting “waiting period” in Judaism, that makes little sense. The destruction of the First to when the Jews regained their land was only 50 years. 5. Jesus managed to spread the “Knowledge of the Lord”, throughout most of the world, even to the Gentiles, like was prophesied of the Messiah 6. The Temple sacrifices stopped being sacrificed right at the time Jesus began His ministry. That’s a huge “coincidence” if you ask me. 7. Daniel’s 70 sevens, and the time the Messiah was supposed to show up according to the sages was Jesus’s time. 8. The Second Temple was somehow supposed to be greater than the first, and the arguments the Rabbis have given prove to be unsatisfactory. 9. The “Seed of the Woman” and the “Almah” in Isaiah, as well as the mem in Isaiah seem to indicate Mary and Jesus as being important. In fact, Marian typology makes the Messianic claims of Jesus stronger in my thoughts. 10. The Suffering Servant. And the Righteous man in Wisdom. I have a hard time believing that the suffering servant is supposed to be some “righteous remnant”, even though the early Rabbis didn’t hold to this view. 11. Catholicism actually does make logical sense. 12. And there’s plenty more but these are some of the reasons why I don’t believe Judaism is true

So, my understanding was that this was not the first time the temple was destroyed, and the formation of synagogues and such is a response to the destruction of the FIRST temple. The only major breakaway from this tradition, which was already part of the Judaism that Jesus practiced, (AFAICT) was the writing down of the oral law (because they were afraid that the oral law would be completely forgotten) in the Mishnah, and the subsequent commentaries in the Gemara. Obviously, between the first and second temple, many of the laws could not be kept the same way either.

I’m coming from a mixed Jewish/protestant background but have felt that this is no longer the path I should be on. I have explored Messianic communities in the States and in Israel and really fell in love with the way the congregations in Jerusalem held themselves. On the flip side, I have not found anything similar to that here. My roommate is orthodox Christian and my best friend has recently begun the conversion process to Catholicism. We have had many discussions on the matter but I think that there are a few roadblocks that really inhibit me from being able to reach further into the idea of becoming Catholic that maybe you can give some feedback on: 1) I recognize the idea of the church in Rome as being the head of the Catholic Church. I was taught that the Pope’s of the past ordered Jews to be killed and that they helped the Nazis. I recognize this may be an exaggeration, but it does make it difficult when I consider the possibility of Catholicism. 2) My friends have explained to me how the iconic images of Mary and the saints are not idols. I see and respect their reasoning, but I still can’t see how it’s not. I saw your video on the communion and how that is not idolatry and I get that, but my friends will ask these saints to talk to God on their behalf. I have seen other more religious Jews do the same thing with the rabbis of old. Both of these examples seem to contradict the Torah. I thought we were supposed to pray to God alone. What are your thoughts on this? I would say the is the biggest hurtle I’ve had with approaching Catholicism. I can just hear my father’s voice in my head saying “this is why God sent us to Babylon”. 3) Being Jewish there are many cultural and religious aspects that are mentioned in Torah for us to adhere to. Do you think it is acceptable to continue things such as wearing a kipa, maintaining kosher, etc? Does this cause issues with you and others in the church? I had this problem in the past where others thought I was going against the Bible for doing these things. 4) I guess to bounce off the last point, which aspects of Torah do you keep concerning these customs? Some messianic emphasize it heavily while others are more lax. 5) This may be a trivial thing but how do you mix Pesach and Easter? They are on different days so which do you commemorate the resurrection if it happened on Pesach but the Catholic Church has its own date and time for it? How do you do Shabbat? 6) My last point may be a little blunt but there are not a lot of Jewish people going to the Catholic Church; whereas, the Messianic congregations in Israel are growing. It doesn’t seem, on the outside anyway, that the Catholic Church is really doing a lot to remind our people of who Yeshua is. Why is there such a contrast? In the past, ignorant as this mentality was, I just thought the Catholic Church hated Jews and that’s why they aren’t coming. I know that wasn’t the best mentality but I am still curious as to why it seems that way. I apologize for the length of this post and the density of the material in it. There are just not many people who I can approach in your position who can give me this feedback. In fact you are the only Jewish person who is Catholic that I have ever heard of. I quite frankly didn’t think it was a thing. Another reason that has given me pause with the idea of pursuing being Catholic.

It appears that my comment on human deification (i.e. theosis) was deleted or censored; dunno why. Regardless, for those ignorant of this fundamental Christian teaching, here is paragraph 460 from the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC): The Word became flesh to make us "partakers of the divine nature":"For this is why the Word became man, and the Son of God became the Son of man: so that man, by entering into communion with the Word and thus receiving divine sonship, might become a son of God." "For the Son of God became man so that we might become God." "The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that he, made man, might make men gods." The basis of this teaching from the Patristics onward is rooted in Genesis and the Psalms, as well as the Gospels and epistles.

They stopped doing it locally so I started going to the Serbian parish. The numbers creep up - people come for baptisms, weddings and funerals and are Instantly converted. They have Instruction for a year or two before baptism and confirmation.

[@MagdalenaIsaiah431]

Gosh that sounds just heavenly! I'm a Convert from Protestant but never been to a live Latin Mass since there are none where I live now - far from America. But I Love being a Catholic Christian and the last 4 years of my life since I've been a seriously practicing Catholic have been the absolute best of my entire existence as a human being on this planet of such sorrow and horrors and confusion. I would say the Rosary alone would keep me Catholic if nothing else because the sheer *POWER* for transformation (for the better) I have experienced in this one prayer devotion alone cannot be compared to anything I ever experienced before! I try to imagine how I ever got through a day before without praying at least 4 Rosaries and it doesn't seem possible! If I were one of those early Christians that was going to be thrown to the lions in the colosseum the only thing I would ask would be to be allowed to pray as many Rosaries as I could then I feel I could face the ferocious beasts with a calm spirit certain I could get through unthinkable evil with the graces "downloaded" from that mighty Prayer. May the LORD grant that I might attend a live Latin Mass somewhere some day. Maybe if I visit the US or France or Spain🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 *🕍 Understanding the Diversity in Judaism* - Judaism encompasses various sects and subgroups, such as Reformed, Conservative, Orthodox, and Ultra-Orthodox. - These groups differ significantly in their interpretations of religious laws, rituals, and observances. - Variations exist in dietary laws, Sabbath observances, and theological beliefs like the nature of God and the Torah. 04:23 *🌐 Challenges within Messianic Judaism* - Messianic Jewish communities exhibit doctrinal diversity, especially concerning beliefs about Yeshua's divinity and adherence to traditional Jewish laws. - Discrepancies arise on issues like kosher dietary laws, Sabbath observance, and calendar systems. - The absence of centralized authority leads to theological disputes and varying interpretations of Jewish practices. 08:16 *⛪️ Critique of Modern-Day Judaism and the Quest for Ancient Roots* - Modern-day Judaism, including Messianic Judaism, lacks the Temple, priesthood, and sacrificial system observed in ancient times. - This raises questions about the legitimacy of current Jewish practices as responses to historical Jewish traditions. - Investigating early Christian writings and the apostolic fathers offers an alternative perspective on religious continuity and doctrinal beliefs.

I’m familiar with the different rites. But I live in Japan. We only have the Latin Rite.

[@PAX1357]

You are right. I belong to the Eastern Rite (Greek) Catholic Church, having Jewish roots, according to my parents. For example, Liturgy of the Gifts - Oriental name Proskomidia (where the names of Moshe, Aaron, Elijah, Elisha, David of Jesse, Daniel, etc. are mentioned nominally.), The Liturgy of St. Basil the Great, the Canon of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Canon of St. Andrew the Cretan, and many other spiritual offices remind us of many beautiful common spiritual elements, which are found in the Torah, the Tanakh, etc. The reality, is that an interest in them must also be shown. I say this because I also had to deal with the Western Rite Catholic Church, but I feel better now in the Oriental Catholic Rite.

Holy Scriptures/Bible are composed of the TeNaKh (Torah (Law/Instructions), Nevi’im (Prophets), Kethuvim (Writings) & Brit HaChadasha (Apostolic Writings), to be the verbally and plenarily inspired Word of Elohim/God (Matt. 5:18; II. Tim. 3:16-17; II. Peter 3:14-16). I hold the Bible to be inerrant in the original writings, infallible, God-breathed, and the complete and final authority for faith and practice (II. Tim. 3:16-17). Ruach HaKodesh was the divine author of Scripture (John 14:25-26; II. Peter 1:20-21; Acts 1:16). While still using the individual personalities of the human authors, Ruach HaKodesh superintended them to insure that they wrote precisely what He wanted written, without error or omission. Furthermore, I reject claims that “the Old Testament has been done away with” (Isaiah 40:8, Malachi 3:6, Matt. 5:18, II. Tim. 3:16, II. Peter 1:20-21, I. Thess. 2:13). Yeshua HaMashiach/Jesus Christ is righteousness/godliness revealed in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16), declaring Elohim/God whom no one has seen (John 1:18), the everlasting Father who dwells in Him (John 14:10, 2 Corinthians 5:19). Indeed, He is the Word made flesh (John 1:14), the visible image of the invisible Elohim (Colossians 1:15), and the exact representation of His nature (Hebrews 1:3) for in Him the fullness of deity was pleased to dwell in bodily form (Colossians 2:9) just as the prophet Isaiah foretold (Isaiah 11:1-2). He is Emmanuel, "Elohim with us" (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23), the arm of YHWH revealed (Isaiah 53:1; Exodus 6:6). And so when we see Him we see the Father (John 14:9), when we hear Him we hear the Father (John 7:16, 12:49, 14:10,24). He is the Aleph and the Tav, the beginning and the completion (Revelation 1:8, 22:12-13); the Living Bread that came out of Heaven (John 6:51) whose origins are of old (Micah 5:2). All things have been created by, through, and for Him (John 1:3, Colossians 1:16-17, Hebrews 1:1), and all things and all authority on Heaven and Earth have been given to Him (Matthew 11:27, 28:18). As such He is the true Elohim (1 John 5:20) whose throne is forever (Hebrews 1:8) and at His Name, every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that HE IS THE LORD which brings glory to the Father (Philippians 2:9-11) the One who has completed His work through Him (Matthew 26:39, Luke 22:42, John 4:34, 6:38), and finally, it is finished (John 19:30). I believe that God became incarnate in the person of Yeshua HaMashiach; that He was conceived of Holy Spirit and was born of the virgin Miryam (Mary); that He is truly God and truly man; that He lived a perfect, sinless life; that all His teachings are true (Isa.14:1ff.; Matt. 1:23). I believe that Yeshua died on the cross for all mankind as a representative, vicarious, substitutionary sacrifice (I. Jn. 2:2; Isa. 53:5-6). I hold that His death is efficacious for all who believe; that our justification is ground in the shedding of His blood; and that it is attested by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead (John 1:12; Acts 16:31; Rom. 5:9; Eph. 1:17; Matt. 28:6; I. Pet. 1:3). Salvation is a gift of God’s grace through faith in the finished work of Yeshua Messiah on the cross (Eph. 2:8-9). Messiah shed His blood to accomplish justification through faith, propitiation to Yahweh, redemption from sin, and reconciliation of man. Messiah died for us and bore our sins in His own body (Rom. 5:8-9; I. Peter 2:24). In order to be saved one must first understand that he has broken Yahweh's perfect law and is condemned because of his sin to eternal destruction away from the presence of almighty Yahweh (Deut 11:28, Rom 6:23). He must then accept the blood of Yeshua/Jesus over the door posts of his heart and believe that outside the death, burial and resurrection of Yeshua there is no other way for salvation. At the point of conversion it is the responsibility of the believer to submit himself to the teachings of his new Rabbi Yeshua, be baptized (immersed) into His name and follow Him all the days of His life (Luke 9:23, 1 Cor. 9:24). I believe this is best done by surrounding oneself with a community of believers that have the same passion to be more like Him daily. Being in a local community of believers is critical for spiritual growth, accountability and the maturity of the spiritual gifts within the body.

After the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE the Pharisees religious scholars ( Rabbis not Temple Priests ) reformulated Judaism to be a portable religion where the " Temple " was now the body and actions of the individual Jew. Rabbinic Judaism was a new and different religion derived from Second Temple Judaism just as Christianity was at about the same time in history.

[@TheJewishCatholic]

Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism could both be considered responses to the dilemma of the Temple, Sacrificial system and the Priesthood. One is legitimate and the other is not.

[@jamesms4]

@@TheJewishCatholic No Rabbinic Judaism comes from the Pharisees whom Jesus said where the Successors to Moses and represented the Judaism of the Synagogue that existed between the first and second Temples. So it is a legitimate expression of Judaism and would be now if the Messiah had not come. We know that He did Come so it is anachronistic but it is not illegitimate. That is like saying the Torah is Illegitimate. which is Marcionism. So I don't agree with your analysis here son.

Thought the St Paul VI Mass more resembles the primitive liturgies of the first three centuries vs the developments that came about in the Roman liturgy and where finalized by St Pius V, development is a thing. In essence diaspora Judaism existed between the destruction of the first temple and building of the second one. So they are the same in essence. It's still anachronistic but in essence the same.

True, there is doctrinal anarchy in the Messianic Jewish world. But why "leave Judaism" altogether? Of course there are discrepancies in Jewish texts. Judaism is more like a conversation about the biblical texts rather than a search for precise definitions of faith as in Catholic tradition. Jewish prayers, festivals, customs, even some halakhic observances enrich Catholicism, which has been thoroughly dejudaized since the early centuries of the Church.

good job. I also notice that many Messianic Jews still believe that the Jews are somehow eternally chosen by their DNA. I think they were chosen of course, but chosen as the beginning to receive God's revelation, and not eternally special/privileged, afaik all faithful Catholics are now "chosen", whether they are Jews or Gentiles. Right?

[@TheJewishCatholic]

The Jewish identity remains. This is not error. Even Paul acknowledged his heritage after having accepted Yeshua as Messiah. The vocation of a Jew remains to bring the Messiah to the world. The role of the Jewish people also remains. Scripture makes it clear that a sign of the end times is a mass regathering of the Jews into the messianic kingdom of Christ. Sure, my people have been blinded in part, as St Paul states, but we still have a role to play. I’m trying to do my part with this channel.

I’ll share what I have already said to others: For me it has to do with the governmental structure of the Kingdom. The ancient pattern of the Beit Din HaGadol and the Al HaBait only exists in the Catholic Church. The prophets declared that the fallen tent of David would be raised by the Messiah. If one is to believe that Yeshua is really Mashiach HaMelek, then it follows that you will seek the aforementioned pattern. Additionally, while the Catholic Church remains one under Christ and the Successor of Peter, the orthodox churches can't even hold a council. They excommunicate each other such as the Russian and Constantinople churches. They can't agree enough to compose universal catechismal works. So similar to the first Protestants that severed themselves from the Church Christ established, other groups have done so in the past as well. The difference is that at least the orthodox remain relatively close to Rome and many have returned into communion. I love our Orthodox brethren, and I pray for their return.
