Rabbi and Catholic Convert Discuss Jewish Identity and the Messiah

I have to tell you one thing. Uh, I'm a Christian.

I'm from a Jewish family, but I have become a Christian at the age of 29.

And, uh, I feel my mission because I believe I'm Catholic today. Mm-hmm.

But I come because I love very much my people, and I do these books so that all the Catholics can know the roots, where they come from, they can know.

But if someone was born a Jew, he is a Jew for all his life. For all his life. Yes, I know that.

And he cannot change it. He can make only his life more complicated.

No, my life is much better today. More miserable. My, my life is not miserable today.

If someone is thinking about his illness, that that is a healthy thing, that is only a sign that his illness is more possible and needs a cure, a guérison, a, a, a treatment as soon as possible.

Pray for me, but I am very glad because for me, it's the Messiah. Yeah.

As I said before, if you are thinking about yourself as a healthy person, it's actually only a sign that you are more ill than someone thinking about you.

Sure, I am a sinner. I am a sinner. I'm not speaking the most...

I, I am speaking about the, uh, chief, about your, uh, sin, the biggest sin to change, uh, apparently, your being Jewish.

But my parents were... never brought me to the synagogue.

Never. That, that is not an excuse for someone to be health-- to be ill because his parents were healed, sir.

You understand what I'm saying? Yes, I understand you.

God Almighty bless you that you became healthy.

It's amazing to became a Jew openly and to reclaim for all the people around you that it was a big error, but God Almighty has so much mercy and he is forgiving even for the biggest sin that can be done.

Rabbi, pray for me- Yeah ... but I believe in as the Messiah. Yeah.

And I will pray for you that you recognize him.

As I said before, that's the only sign that your illness is much deeper that you imagine and I imagine.

And God Almighty bless you to have good news and don't enter...

People, don't enter in discussion about what you are.

You are born a Jew. I'm always a Jew. Yeah.

And there will be a Jew, and a Jew openly, and all see, all person around you, especially your family, your acclaim, your strength to reclaim that some-someone that performed a big sin, nevertheless, he has the God Almighty strength to recover from his deep illness.

And as soon you do it, as sooner Moshiach will come.

The real Moshiach. The real Moshiach is?

The God first, God first. Can I give you the book?

Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, Rabbi. That will, that will prevent- That will prevent you to give it to someone else and then give it to someone else to do something wrong.
