If it wasn't for the 1st Jewish Christians this world for the most part would be even more heathenistic than it is now....Most messianic Jews I know are completly fufilled in there belief that they share a wonderful heritage in tradition, family and history in being a Jew as well as the complete knowledge they have that through there people the Messiah came to give hope and salvation to a world that was lost since Adam and Eve....So where were all the Messianic Jews of the 2nd Century. I suspect they couldn't stomach the divinity that begain to take over the church and bailed out.
