      do not convert. Do not. Jews are too nice to tell you not to, but really they don't want outsiders. We have been at it for thousands of years and it's not easy, but with every new person this, by now fragile, culture gets more and more diluted, yet we are commanded to remain separate from the nations. Please, do yourself and us a favor and do not convert, but instead - learn 7 Mizvot.

Jews really don't want or need converts. potential converts will do much better by learning 7 Mizvot and instead of wrecking their life (your own parents are off limits to you as a true convert, if you didn't know) and burdening Jewish communities with themselves, instead - do bring light to your own people, those that you physically and mentally know much better than the ones you are thinking of joining. Don't do it. Stay true to yourself. Help your own tribe. Leave Jews to their own devices. Please.

      Don't do it. Learn about 7 Mizvot instead. Jews really really don't the converts and we have many reasons not to as well as for a person there is no reason to abandon his/her own tribe and join another. Improve the place and people of which you were born, don't join others because it feels more convenient, pleasant, right, etc., it's ungrateful to your people and not good to the ones you will burden with adjusting to you. Don't do it. Reform is not Judaism and they have no right to subject you to future suffering. Don't do it. Don't be stupid.

      @@highcallingofyahuah3112 Where you even a Christian? or did you just go to a church building? It Makes no sense that you say That God is calling you from being a Christian to becoming a Proselyte Jew since Jesus is the Messiah, and he was Sent from God the Father to be the Propitiation for our Sins. Isaiah Chapter 53:1-7 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
      2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
      3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
      4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
      5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
      6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
      7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
      GOD Allowed the Second Temple to be destroyed because the Nation of Israel Rejected Jesus, and now they have to no High priest to be their Mediator before God. Nor are they able to Sacrifice animals to Cover their sins, Because Just like in Isaiah 53:7 Jesus Is That Lamb of God that Was Brought to the Slaughter. John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
      You have let the Enemy Lie to you. JESUS IS REAL AND HE CHANGED MY LIFE! He Gave me a Joy that my family, friends, pleasures, could not give me, and He changed my Desires and now i do not want to live in the Sinful way that i used to Because now I do not Have a Heavy Burden of Sin on me anymore Because Jesus Has Saved me and Forgiven me of all the Evil i've done in my life.
      Repent and Believe the Gospel, Believe in The Lord. Because HELL Is a Real Place. Revelation 21:8 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
      But Jesus DIED For you and ROSE From the Dead on the third day.
      John 6:32-35 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
      33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
      34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
      35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

      @@JILifer , I agree that Jesus is the Son of God and that He is the Messiah. I also believe that Judaism and Jesus are one. Many people separate the two but He came to fulfill the prophecy not create a new religion. Many people on both sides get confused by that. He is the Word and whole reason that this is. He said I am the way , the truth and the life. No one can get to the Father except through Me. Both sides are blinded by lies and hate. It’s time to get to the root of what HaShem is saying which is for all mankind to draw unto Him. Thank you for your passion about Yeshua (Jesus).

      Depending on what school of though you want to adhered to in Judaism there are different methods of converting. I am unfamiliar with the Reform, Conservative or Reconstruction's methods but from those who I have talked to, they say its the easiest to convert to. If you want to practice a more Torah observant life you might want to look at more Orthodox movements such as Modern Orthodox, Ultra-orthodox or Hassidic (Chabad-Lubavitch, Breslov, Gur, Bobov etc.) but most of the Hassidic communities accept for Chabad and Breslov, tend not to want converts. If you choose this path, its much more difficult to convert as there is allot more alternating of your life to convert. If you truly want to live your life that way they will guild you. I would contact various rabbis from different movements and see what works for you. I wish you the best of luck and if you decide to take the journey, you shall be welcomed to the Jewish Nation.

One can not reform what was created by G'd. It is a show, a bit like kids playing mummies and daddies and babies....
