My friend is a Conservative Jew who is very devout. He thinks Jesus was nothing more than a good Rabbi who had some good ideas and never claimed to be Messiah but that his later followers did. How do I convincingly argue that Jesus is Messiah, the Son of God, to him? He tells me that the Jewish Messiah is very different from Christian conception of the Messiah. So how do I convince him that Jesus is the Messiah?
How do you convince a Jew about Jesus?

He says it's about Israel, not the Messiah.

Press him for Scriptural defense of some of the more esoteric rabbibical doctrine; universal salvation through reincarnation, emenationist kabbalah, etc. There's a huge gap between what the prophets teach and what the rabbis teach, so if you read up on those gaps and implore him to justify them it should work. Just don't be a dick about it, a little leaven ruineth the whole lump.
Elijah Fisher
Also see if you can find out what Second Temple Jews thought on that subject, and if Christianity caused a definite shift in that. Jews though the Septuagint was divinely inspired until the Christians started using it, so see if there are other gaps.

If a rich man entering the kingdom of heaven is harder than a camel passing through the eye of a needle it must be like a train going through the point of a tack for a jew to find Salvation.
Logan Sullivan
You need to tell him first that he is not of the chosen people, that Judaism has nothing to do with the Old Law, and also show him vid related to really piss him off - should open his eyes if he is not full of pride. Tell him that video uploader is a half Jew and he will probably tell you that he is a self-hating Jew.
Blake Scott
Sounds like a liberal, not conservative, Jew
Noah Anderson
If he thinks Jesus was a good rabbi, why does he think the jews crucified him?
Wyatt Miller
His denomination is Conservative Judaism though.
Ryder Howard
One of the most deterring things for Jews is the cultural difference. Many Jews still see Christianity as some European religion of crusaders or hardcore 1950s American white conservatives. Show your Jewish friend the lives of middle eastern Christians in Egypt, lebanon, Syria, and Iraq, and even israel. Most Jews don't even consider Christianity due to how jarring the cultural differences have been in the west in recent centuries. But showing him middle eastern Christians may allow him to see Christianity as the true descendent of the Old Testament.
John Powell
The temple fell. His religion is dead.
When is the last time a jew offered an animal sacrifice?
Kayden Moore
Orthodox Jews don't look very middle eastern. They're style of dress is what the Polish elite wore in the 18th century.
Elijah Myers
Does human sacrifice count?
Elijah Diaz
He was killed for claiming to be the Messiah. His discipled died for claiming he was the Messiah. They had no reason to do so ifit was false and come up with huge lies.
The life of Jesus is told by his disciples, so if he is going to dismiss them as nonsensical liars, then he has no source about Jesus at all
Brody Ross
Introduce him to Bro Nat.
Landon Bailey
Oh yeah. Then why the hell are these Ashkenazi rats larping as Semites
Benjamin Phillips
Ashkenazi are literal human cancer, imo. I'll pray that they see the light, but that's about it.

This is a good video. It’ll get the jews out of their muh tribal blood god mentality and get whites to understand if they don’t turn back to God He’ll smite them like he did the other heathenized Israelites. Hehehehe

A conservative Jew is a Jew who I presume has read the Talmud, to which It's your responsibility to remind your friend that the book which his religion claims to follow greatly insults Jesus and Mary. It does not claim that Jesus was a 'good Rabbi'.

"And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham." (Matthew 3:9)
"They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham" (John 8:39)
You take from the Bible and attempt to elevate jews to a position that is not theirs. They are the sons of satan, John 8:44. We Christians are the sons of Abraham, as our deeds and our hearts show us to follow the teachings of the Lord.
"Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee." (Revelations 3:9)
In the KJV, the word "Judean" is mistranslated as "Jew." What occupies israel today are the very pharisees that Jesus fought against. They barely even pay the Torah lip service, and instead serve the talmud and kaballah.
Brody Baker
You cant. judaism is about bending gods rules and outright avoiding them. they would rather accuse their messiah of being a false prophet and get him killed than follow gods law.
Aiden Scott
Tell him that he could become a televangelist or something equally shekel promising and you'll have him converting by the end of the week.

ain't this a hint?

There's nothing wrong with ethnic Jews. Christianity is universal and the message of Christ transcends race. Stop posting insulting pictures of exaggerated Jewish stereotypes made by nazis. The only problem you should have with Jews is the rejection of Christ and the religion of Judaism. There is no satanic race of people, anybody can be saved. And enough with the khazar garbage too. 1/3 of Israel's population are Arab Jews, not Eurasian satanists. Just try to convert these people, and stop being an immature pol nazi
Jaxson Brown
Sorry, op. Your "friend" is being a typical perfidious jew and is lying to you. Just know you're not dealing with someone in good faith. Good luck, though.

This is not gnosticism. I do not reject YAHWAH; He is the only god. Second, this is all found in canon books. Out of curiosity, where does this gnostic accusation come from, the "Gospel of Phillip"? Thats the only one I know of with an implication of anything similar but I haven't read much of that stuff regardless.
Nathan Wright
I agree with your assessment for the most part, but you're missing the fact that the "Synagogue of Satan" is referring to Jews who are not really Jews but are pretending to be such which you quoted in Revelation 3:9 (blueletterbible.org
Cooper Perez
Seen it, great vid, love how Jewish they both sound combined with the fact they call Christ their king
Lincoln Mitchell
Racism is not a sin. It’s a word invented by Trotsky, an antichristian communist.
Mason Butler
OP there is no need to try and convert your friend, as you are both in false religions that have stolen or adapted from others. You both need to look to your joint parental religion, Zoroastrianism for true guidance.
Sebastian Evans
No, it isn't. It means the Jews are not the true Jews (Israel) but we are
Zachary Gray
I think the easiest way to bring them to Christ is to stop screaming "synagogue of satan" at them all the time. Why would they bother listening to you if you're already convinced that they can't be saved?
Isaac Robinson
Hudson Baker
This is talking about Abraham, the "you" here is singular.
Xavier Peterson
You just stepped right into the point.
Jesus is not a jew. He is, absolutely, descended from Abraham, Jacob, and Judah. However, there is a very important distinction that surrounds the word "jew" and it's origins. This link does a good job of explaining it without the severe anti-semitic slant that most of the content you see on the chans has. ( biblebelievers.org.au
If you take the time to really break down what is being said, I think you'll understand. Also, learning Latin ( I still suck at it ) has been a lot of fun, and very informative in many ways.
Once you quit viewing the word "jew" as a magical phrase that exempts the one titled as such to do anything, because they are "God's chosen," and re-read the NT, you'll walk away with an entirely different viewpoint. Everything in the Bible is alive and well today, and applies thoroughly to our lives.
Mason Wood
Not happening, laddy. They have to come to this conclusion on their own.
Blake Watson
Read the Book of Romans where it is written that Christians (Gentiles) are grafted into True Israel.
Read the rest of the Torah where God repeatedly states Abraham's covenant to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Your statement is a contradiction. Jesus Christ is a descendant of King David, which makes Him physically Judean (i.e. Jew).
I never claimed such a thing, however Antisemitism is a form of "cursing" the Jewish people which in turn is damning yourself. The way to bless them is to pray that they accept Jesus Christ as the Messiah, and to spread the Gospel even to the Jewish people. I reject Dual-Covenant theology.
Mason Adams
How does this contradict what I said? Unless you're claiming Jews are also the true Israel, which goes against the express teaching of the very passage you are me to.
Perhaps you should read that Book of Romans, you'll find the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are Christians, not Jews.
Leo Cox

Jayden Howard
Spiritually there is no distinction (Galatians 3:28), but physically there is still a distinction between the Jew and the Greek (i.e. Gentiles).
Eli Torres
Yes, and? Are you having cognitive trouble?
Colton King
God still cares for His Chosen People and they will come back to Him one day, read the Bible.
I see what you and your ilk say on YouTube and other places spitting out vermin against the Jewish people and I just want to say that God sees everything that you do. Anyways, since you're in the business of insulting your fellow brothers in Christ, I will leave you be.
David Collins
His "chosen people" are the Christians
