messianic

Of or relating to a Messiah
The president’s fault is not that he has been too messianic: It is rather that he has not been messianic enough.”
"The president’s detractors ridicule as “Bush babble” the rhetoric of his Second Inaugural Address, the high-water mark of his Freevangelical policy; and, as distressing news pours forth from Iraq, they point to his claim that “eventually the call of freedom comes to every mind and every soul” as evidence that he suffers acutely from a Messiah complex. The criticism misses the mark"

Messianic Muslim

01) An individual who ethnically, patriotically, and/or culturally practiced and identified as a follower of Islam. Now they fully recognize that the historical Jesus of Nazareth (Yeshua HaNotzri) is the Messiah and that the New Testament is a part of TaNaKH(i.e., Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim, Hadashah-- literally "New" or "News"); and still believes in the Messenger Mohammed and The Quran. Also understands that Mohammed was a born-again Christian.

02) Recognizes the Godhead as described by Christian Religions and by Jesus as: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Allah being Father God in the "Godhead Construct".
Ex: Ever since Ahmed found Jesus and was born-again he had conflict identifying as a born-again Christian because his family believe in Islam. So he does declare himself as a Messianic Muslim.

Messianic Fusionism

A synthetic political theory that unites Jacob Lieb Talmon's messianic democracy and Frank Meyer's fusionism.

In messianic fusionism a Protestant messiah unites social-labor (modern monetary) theory into blockchain currency, ushers postmodernism beyond hyper-media into the era of metamodernism, and delineates a meta-specific relationship between a new paradigm called Emergence and Hinduism and Christianity.

Synthetic messianism.
In messianic fusionism a Protestant counter-Christ appears in lieu of the anti-Christ.

Messianic Jew

An Ethnically-Patrilineal and/or -Matrilineal Jew who believes that the historical Jesus of Nazareth (Yeshua HaNotzri) is the Messiah and that the New Testament is a part of TaNaKH(i.e., Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim, Hadashah-- literally "New" or "News").
A Messianic Jew does not necessarily keep all 613 mitzvot in the Torah, may not hold the Talmud as part of the Jewish Bible, and may be a member of a church as opposed to a Messianic shul or synagogue. Also called "Jews for Jesus", Messianic Jews are often targeted for persecution by Antimissionaries such as the Antimissionary organization Jews for Judaism.
