1. Why do you divide the body of Christ (not calling yourselves Christians) by giving yourself the name Messianich Judaism, for the Messiah has already come, though the Messianic Kingdom has not? Doesn't the Bible say not to say "I am of [this]" and "I am of [that]"?

2. If you believe in the Trinity, then why do you reject the Bible where it says they were first called Christians at Antioch?

3. When Paul cut his hair in Acts to observe Jewish laws, he was chained and sent to Rome. Are you doing the same thing to Christians today, in any way?

Judaism rejects Jesus as the Messiah, so God says only a remnant of Israel (Rev. 7.1-8) will be saved, keeping His promise to Israel at His return, for a remnant will only believe at His return.

Messianic should not be used as a term for it was used in the sense of the Messiah not having yet come, but He has already come and died on the cross.

It feels like games are believing played which is disingenuous of those who use the term "Messianic Judaism".
