Do Messianic Jews accept the entire New Testament as a base of their belief?
What is the position of Messianic Judaism (if there is a common position) on passages in the Gospel of John and the letters of Paul that can be understood as that Jesus was a form of God?
----------
Addition, as asked to say more about what are the passages that can be understood as that Jesus was a form of God.
John 1:1
> In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
> was God.
John 1:14
> And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth;
> we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father.
Stating «the Word was God» and «the Word became flesh» he sets the base for the thought that God, the Holy Spirit and Jesus *are the same*, which is not the Jewish (and Muslim) concept of God.
Numbers 23:19
> God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should
> repent. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will
> he not fulfil it?
Hosea 11:9
> I will not execute my fierce anger, I will not again destroy E'phraim;
> for I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst, and I will not
> come to destroy.
