Because we believe our promised Messiah has already come, and here's part of the reason why:

Zechariah 6:12 "...and tell him, 'Yahweh-Tzva'ot says: "There is coming a man whose name is Tzemach [Sprout]. He will sprout up from his place and rebuild the temple of Yahweh. 13 Yes, he will rebuild the temple of Yahweh; and he will take up royal splendor, sitting and ruling from his throne."

This is the connection to Y'shua - here is a man whose name is "the branch" the righteous branch (Jeremiah 23:5), who was predicted 500 years before his birth.

We are Netzarim - believers in Yeshua Mashiyach, the Messiah foreshadowed throughout the Tanach. Netzari is a continuation of Judaism, which began as a direct result of YHWH's promise for a new Covenant long before the birth of Yeshua (see Jeremiah 31:31-34). Yeshua was, in essence, the first "Netzari/Messianic Jew" whose goals were to provide divine interpretation to Torah, and to offer Himself as the final Sin Sacrifice. He was not a demi-God, or any other entity separate and distinct from the one God of Israel - the same God who, according to the Torah, was to become flesh (see Genesis 18:1-14; Genesis 32:24-30; Exodus 24:9-11; Proverbs 30:4).

Netzarim are followers of Yeshua who live according to Torah and the Ketuvim Netzarim (writings of the Netzarim). Yeshua Mashiyach made a way for each one to receive the anointing of the Ruach HaKodesh (Set-Apart Spirit) and learn His Word according to the Tanach (Torah - instructions in righteousness; Neviim - prophets; Ketuvim -writings) and Ketuvim Netzarim. We observe Torah as did Yeshua and His Talmidim (disciples). Netzari come from all manner of Christian, Jewish, atheist, Eastern and other religious backgrounds to live according to the Faith of Yeshua. We follow an ancient and future calendar based on Torah which is the authoritative Word of YHWH. For Netzarim the Good News or Gospel is the entire Bible. We regard Yeshua as Lawgiver and Teacher of all Righteousness.

Because some traditional Jews have set up a huge network of "anti-missionary" websites designed to draw their "lost sheep" back into the fold. These include sites such as Jews for Judaism; Outreach Judaism; and Messiah Truth Project. These websites employ hate speech, sarcasm, lies, deception, and plenty of subtle and/or blatant Scripture twisting in order to get their message across. (Feel free to check them out for yourselves!)

Like the Christians who have completely misunderstood and twisted our Creator's original divine teachings (Torah), Jews have misunderstood and twisted "the rest of the story." For instance, one of their many issues with Y'shua is that his teachings went against Torah. Take a look at the following passage:

Yochanan 5: 18. And because of this the Yehudeans were seeking all the more to kill him, not only because he had loosed the Shabbat, but also concerning that he would say that his Father was Elohim and was equating himself with Elohim. 19. But Y'shua answered and said to them, Amen, amen I say to you that the Son is not able to do anything by his desire, but what he sees the things that the Father does. For these things that the Father does, the Son also likewise does.

Y'shua did not break the Shabbat according to Torah; rather, he restored the observance of Shabbat as YHWH intended, without the burden of religious tradition. In so doing, the traditions of the Pharisees had been violated, but certainly not the Torah of Moshe! As an "arm of YHWH (Isaiah 53:1) Yeshua came to proclaim the Kingdom; not to abolish it, as Christianity claims!

Luke 4: 43 "But he (Yeshua) said, "I must preach the good news of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent."

And the Apostles upheld Y'shua's words and the Kingdom!

Acts 28: 23 "From morning till evening the Apostle Paul explained and declared the Kingdom of God and tried to convince people about Yeshua from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets."

Acts 24: 14. But this indeed I (Paul) acknowledge, that in that same doctrine of which they speak, I do serve the Elohim of my fathers, believing all the things written in Torah and in the prophets.

Yeshua laid it on the line....

Matthew 7: 13. Enter by the straight door, for wide is the door and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many are they, those that go in it. 14. How narrow the door and straight the road that leads to life, and few are they, those that find it. 15. Beware of false prophets that come among you in the clothing of lambs, but from within are ravenous wolves. 16. But you will know them by their fruits.

Since you have read this far, why not read some of our articles below and then decide whether or not you still wish to believe that Y'shua was NOT who He claimed to be?

INTRODUCING....

The ARAMAIC ENGLISH NEW TESTAMENT by Andrew Gabriel Roth! It is the most definitive Aramaic to English translation that has come forth in nearly 2,000 years. Not only does this Aramaic based New Testament Bible render the Ancient Aramaic in a way that is easy for every English reader to understand, but it investigates nuances, poetry and hidden codes of the New Testament that until now have only been available to Hebrew and Aramaic scholars. The AENT was compiled, edited and translated with consultation to both Ancient and Modern Authorities including the Khabouris Codex and the 1905 Edition of the Syriac New Testament by the British and Foreign Bible Society.
