Israel does not NEED a Messiah. Israel looks forward longingly to the Messiah.
Judaism teaches that a Man should do everything in his power to achieve Divakut, a perfect cleaving to God and the Divine Will. The Messiah brings the Kingdom of God to the Earthly plane making this cleavage far easier and far more natural. The strictures of the Jewish religion will no longer be necessary in the Messianic Age because the connection to God that they are intended to foster will occur without them.
Israel. There is no king in the ccurrent state 'Israel', when the messiah comes he will establish Israel.
Not at all. Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Christ of Israel and not therefore the antichrist.
It was the Messiah.
Israel did not want a Christ; however the Jews have sought a messiah in every age of persecution or discontent. Note: Although Christ and Messiah have the same origin (annointed one), in the English language today, they have different meanings.
Not all Jews hold a belief in a Messiah, but those who do believe he will lead the Jews back to Israel and re-establish the Ancient Temple sacrifices. He will be the next king, and his descendents will be the future kings of Israel.
Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel.
The messiah, whom we still await.
A:According to Christians, yes. According to Jews, no. It therefore depends on what you believe.
Israel has three different religions, jewish, christianity, and islam. The Islam worship their god Allah. The Christians worship God. And the Jews worship the messiah.
By never forsaking her even though Israel rejected Christ the Son of God, when the antichrist comes he will be accepted by Israel as the Messiah but in the end the Jewish people will be converted to Christianity. after the death of antichrist.
Israel's government is a popularly elected parliamentary democracy, similar to the national governments of Canada, the UK, Australia, France, and others. There hasn't been a king of Israel in over 2,000 years. If someone asserted kingship in Israel, this person would be considered to have claimed that he was the Messiah.
Our homeland as given to us by God in the Torah is Israel. Each time an empire would destroy Israel, we would be forced into exile (or the diaspora). We are still in the Roman exile, but some believe we should go back in bringing the Messiah (zionism). still some believe we will be brought back only when God brings the Messiah, and not to return now (anti-zionism). Israel is our home.
