In the last 5 years or so I've had my eyes opened to the Jewishness of our faith. I'm hoping this thread helps to uncover what the Bible teaches about this so that we can all embrace and come into ALL our heritage.

I don't know about you but I wasn't born of a Jewish mother, so I'm not a Jew. And it's not like the Rastafarian's believe, that everybody is from one the the tribes of Israel, so I'm not a Jew that way either.
Neither am I a Ebionite or Nazarite, so I'm not Jewish that way.
I think the only way I'm even close to being Jewish is I follow a Jew. But I'm not a follower of James, the brother of Jesus, who was clearly Jewish.
Other than that I'm a gentile. So why do I need to become Jewish?
