If you believe Jesus was the Messiah, you are a Christian - full stop.
If a person who believes that calls themselves a Jew, that is deceit. The promotion of this false Jewry as a means of converting Jews into Christians is the aggression.
So then, you consider a person Jewish only by belief and not by DNA?
I agree absolutely and I am glad you said it.

I am not sure I follow the logic. Let’s ask a different question — is a person who is a Jew but does not believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob still a Jew?
Put in another way, if you were born a Jew but disbelieve in Judaism, are you still a Jew?

Question, thoughtomator -
Would the Kings, prophets, and those who placed their belief in the Messiah to come then be considered to be Christians?
It was after all, their trust and belief in the Lord God’s Protector of the Jewish race that they placed their very souls upon.
I understand your view. My question, however still stands:
As they willingly accepted the afore proclaimed Messiah, without being told specifically the name, if indeed Christ was the Messiah spoke about, would they be removed from the Jewish lineage in your view?
Would you consider them to be heretics?
well, religiously Christian, but ethnically Jewish. Just as there are atheist Jews in New york who are religious not Jewish but ethnically so - incidentally, the Nazis killed folks who were ethnically Jewish - didn’t matter what they believed or didn’t believe in. Nazis were wackadoodles in any case, killing “Aryan” Gypsies, Poles and Russians as well.
