1. another phoney
LR ,   Afula   (11.05.19)
Another pious phoney charlatan who lives off the donations from mindless suckers. Just another salesman selling RELIGION. Anybody who thinks they speak in the name of our Creator, only reveals the depths of their own ignornace and the pathetic emptiness of anyone who supports him.
2. I would think his body guards would carry Uzi's not tiny
Rivkah   (11.05.19)
pistols. Even the late US Senator Ted Kennedy's body guards carried Uzi's. But that is in the USA where it is more dangerous than in Israel.
3. Any messiah will do
Katriel ,   JHB   (11.05.19)
As an observant jew I would like to point out the following. Hallachicaly a jew is allowed to choose a messiah of their choice. viz.R' Akiva, and a rich history of choices stretching till the last Chabad Rebbe. The issue is observance of rabbinic law. The majority of jews have rejected rabbinic law. The creative strategy would appear to me to view them as 'captive children' and enter into honest and direct communication with them. Rambam allowed marriage to Karaites, his idea of 'conversion' was immediate and practical. It appears that the Ben Asher family were probably Karaites, and that was how the Torah was transmitted. Midrashim clearly indicate that rabbinic theology was not given to Moses at Sinai. History shows that the rejection of the Northern Kingdom by Judah culminated in the loss of Judah itself. Wake up.
4. he curses Islam&Jews applaud him,but his goal is 2 endear

6. Tuvia Singer = Fake News
Donna Diorio ,   Dallas   (11.05.19)
I don't know anything about Kirt Schneider, but I do know about Tuvia Singer and he has misrepresented about everything he said in this article. I met Singer in Dallas back in 1992 or 93 when he was the young darling of Jews against Jesus. They had come to crash the annual gathering of the Union of Messianic Jews spending all their time talking to the Christians attending that meeting badmouthing Messianics. Tuvia Singer was already a proficient liar on Jews who believe in Yeshua at that tender age.

Just about everything he said in this article is fake news (including what he fantasizes is how they express their faith and worship), but as only one example is his classic JFJ purposely underestimated number of Jewish believers in Yeshua. The accurate estimates: "Messianic Jews are estimated to number 1 million worldwide, with more than 200,000 in the United States." Estimates in Israel are in the range of 15,000, pretty good considering in 1948 there was only 29.

22. MESSIAH
URBAN RABBI ,   SAFED HONESTY   (11.05.19)
According to thousands of years of jewish tradition ,the Messiah will ride a White Donkey .He will not arrive in a chauffeur-driven Rolls -Royce fancy automobile.
The question is : does the ever-fragrant Kirt Schneider own a white donkey and does he wrestle with it ?

28. Messianic Judaim
Dan Anderson ,   Boise, Idaho   (11.05.19)
Messianic Judaism is idolatrous to Judaism.
People who practice it are ignorant of Judaism and
victims of Evangelicals.
29. Jesus was a Jew,grew up in the Jewish faith,born raised and
Naor ,   Haifa   (11.05.19)
Died in the Jewish faith and at no time advocated changing his religion.
Whether as it says in the new testament he came to show us a different way to worship that did not mean christianity- it meant an easier form of Judaism.Whilst these evangelists and missionaries try to covert Jews they should be converting to Judaism.Maybe they are all trying to stand with the Jews but they should have thought of that between 1939 to 1945.I don't recollect the contents of the bible being any different them to what it is now.
30. This man is
JESUS ,   HEAVEN   (11.05.19)
This man is a meshougah
