Conversion

A spiritual journey into the Jewish community

Gentiles who believe in the God of Israel and the Jewish Messiah Yeshua are welcome to request conversion and membership of the Adat Yeshua community.

Messianic Judaism globally is coming of age. Since its re-emergence in more modern times it has grown from small identity-aware groups of Yeshua believers into a global spiritual movement that traces its existence back to the first century with Yeshua’s teaching.

All Judaisms today convert gentiles, and have created educational and spiritual programmes to facilitate this spiritual journey — a journey first undertaken by the very first convert, Abraham. Messianic Judaism is a Judaism, and as such is no different to other forms of Judaism as regards conversion.

Conversion through the auspices of the UBMS Beit Din is more than finding a life philosophy, or even a new cultural or ethnic identity. It is about discovering the reality of a God who is alive and who can change your life forever.

Curious to learn more? In his new book, Conversion to Messianic Judaism: Jewish Universalism and the Ways That Should Never Have Parted, Rabbi Benjamin Sheldrake explores why conversion matters and how Messianic Judaism understands the relationship between Jews and the nations. The book presents Messianic Judaism as the mature expression of a universal Jewish message: that salvation through the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua, is for all people.

  • Worshipping regularly at Adat Yeshua
  • Assessed, finally, by the Beit Din
  • Welcomed into the Jewish community after circumcision (for males) and immersion (for both men and women)
