Hi Dr. Bock,

Thanks for opening this thread and I hope it's not too late to respond.

There are a number of very solid ministries I'm aware of which are actively involved in Jewish Evangelism, such as Chosen People Ministries, of which I have noted that you a board member. Good for you!

The term "Messianic Judaism" is somewhat problematic for me because Christianity and Judaism are distinct religions, notwithstanding Christianity's deep Jewish roots. In MJ there are numerous streams, some of which are disturbingly heterodox, e.g. denying Messiah's deity. Some Messianic congregations are solidly biblical in their teachings, yet others affirm that the entire Bible is a "covenant" which believers today have to "keep." My concern is that some MJ congregations, explicitly or implicitly, might be promoting a kind of reverse replacement theology, i.e. "Israel is the New Church."

Thanks for your comments.
