Dear Brothers and Sisters,
My sister-in-law’s husband landed in prison earlier this year, something that has devastated her family. She has two young children, 10 and 15. In prison, her husband met a man who introduced him to the Bible. Since most of my wife’s family never truly practiced its Catholic faith, God was never central in their lives. So, my sister-in-law started attending the same Bible study group that man was attending when he was freed about four months ago.
Well, the group is really different to what I’d seen before. I thought the Mormon church was strict, this group was very, very rigid. They are told to follow the Law of Moses, observing all the Jewish holidays, not eating pork or seafood, etc. The group is called Amishav, which in Hebrew means “My People Returns.” The founder is from Cancun, and he lived in Israel for several years. He is trying to make all Christians return to Judaism and to observe the Law of Moses, but with faith in Jesus as the Messiah. They argue that the Catholic Church altered all beliefs with pagan Roman beliefs, etc. They also don’t believe in the Holy Trinity. Here’s the link to the founder’s main group in Cancun: amishavcancun.org/index.php
Are any of you familiar with groups like this one? Are these groups considered Messianic Jews?
The worst part of this is that my sister-in-law is psychologically abusing her mother, my mother-in law, who is a Cathequist, and a devout Catholic. My sister-in-law tells her that she’s going to go to Hell, and that due to her devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe, my mother-in-law is condemning all of her children. My sister-in-law has become a different person, very critical of others, always challenging others’ beliefs based on the Bible, etc.
What can I do to help my mother-in-law?
Thanks!
En Cristo,
Pablo
