Sorry, misformated 98

What does this mean Convert? I know a Jewish/Christian couple they both beleive Jesus is the Messiah...they go to Messianic Synagogue, they celebrate Jewish holidays...the woman does not have a denomination she is just a believer in Christ so what did they convert to. If the early Christians were Jews then were they converts..People made this up..again not from G-d.

And I’m sure their Minister calls himself a Rabbi. I have a cat that thinks he’s a dog. They can call themselves whatever they want. No Jewish institution recognizes them as Jews. It’s not unreasonable to respect the right of Jews to define their faith.

Your post 95, I believe the eventual point the author makes is that Jesus wasn't Christian, Moses wasn't Jewish, fortunately the Qur'an reveals that they were both Muslims. That point is lost on me too.

So then who is the ULTIMATE Authority of Faith? Who is the one that becomes a leader to define Religion? isn't it GOD?

What I am understanding from you it is the leaders and teachers in organized religion are the ones who defines who is a Jew, A Christian, Muslim, Buddhist not being smart just trying to understand..
