The great Torah commentator and philosopher, Don Yitzchak Abarbanel (1437-1508), who wrote three lengthy works about the Scriptural prophecies and our Sages; sayings concerning Mashiach and the Geula, writes in Yeshuot Meshicho (Jerusalem, 5753, p.104) that it is possible that Mashiach will be taken from this world and brought into the heavenly; Ga ...
If I believe in Maran Rabbeinu Yeshua as the Messiah, won’t I lose my Jewishness? No you won’t! HaShem made you Jewish and no one can ever change that, regardless of what people say.
