They differ from Reform, Conservative, Orthodox and Ultra-Orthodox Jews over their beliefs about the Messiah, the Trinity, salvation, sin, and a multitude of other factors. Jews generally believe that the Messiah has yet to come; they do not accept Messianic Jews as real Jews. If one defines a religion according to the deity that they worship, then Messianic Jews are actually Christians because they recognize the existence of the Christian Trinity and the divinity of Yeshua. However, if one goes by how the membership define their own religion, then Messianic Jews are a part of Judaism.
