We are a religious community with a panentheistic orientation, tracing our spiritual lineage to those Jews who, immediately following the resurrection of the Savior, recognized and acknowledged Him as the Messiah. This foundational belief shapes our unique approach to scripture and theology.

Our Scriptural Foundation

We hold the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) in high regard, interpreting much of it metaphorically rather than literally. From the New Testament, we accept the four canonical Gospels. However, we diverge from mainstream Christianity in that we do not recognize the writings of Paul or the subsequent books of the New Testament.

Our Theological Perspective

Our conception of God is panentheistic rather than theistic, which we believe is essential for understanding the Trinity:

Our Theological Perspective

Our conception of God is panentheistic rather than theistic, which we believe is essential for understanding the Trinity:

1. God the Creator, who created this reality as an information space, is present in every quantum of His creation and beyond.

2. Jesus the Messiah, as God's incarnation in human form. Therefore, of course Mary was metaphorically a virgin (as the catholics believe in a rather odd way).

3. The Holy Spirit, as the divine "programming code" of all that exists, and the third aspect of God

We believe the Creator and the created are inseparable, with the great mystery being what lies beyond creation - a realm only God can fully comprehend. This distinguishes us from the pantheistic religions of East Asia.

Our Identity

We identify ourselves as Messianic Jews, believing this to be the most accurate description of our faith. While the term "Early Christians" could also apply, we distance ourselves from later Christian traditions influenced by Paul and subsequent theologians.

It's important to note that we are distinct from various groups that use the term "Messianic Judaism" with the intent of converting Jews to Christianity. We represent a religious minority within a religious minority, spread across the globe.

Our Global Community

What unites us is the Messianic Jewish Fellowship International (MJFI), headquartered in Israel and Colorado. Given the challenges of antisemitism and our unique position, we often practice our faith quietly but remain interconnected.

The MJFI welcomes all who share our beliefs, providing a spiritual home and a global network of connections to individuals and institutions. As a minority facing potential threats, we consciously maintain a low public profile.

Our Approach

Above all, it is crucial to understand that we do not actively proselytize. Our community grows through personal conviction and seeking, not through active recruitment.

We strive to live in harmony with local cultures and customs wherever we reside, embodying our faith through our actions and relationships rather than public displays or evangelism.

In these complex times, we continue to nurture our faith, preserve our traditions, and support one another in our spiritual journey, guided by our understanding of the Messiah and our panentheistic worldview.
