In order to believe in the Messiah of Israel it is important to believe Moses and the prophets. It is recorded in The New Covenant Abraham's reply from Paradise to a man in hell, "If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."
Here is the whole story told by Yeshua as recorded in the New Covenant (Luke 16:19 - 31)
"There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed; so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father;s house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."

King David's prophecies in the New Covenant
"For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the L-rd always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance. Men and brethern, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that G-d had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Messiah to sit on his throne; He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Messiah, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. This Yeshua hath G-d raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of G-d exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear, For David is not ascended into the heavens but he saith himself, The L-RD said unto my L-rd, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thy foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that G-d hath made that same Jesus(Yeshua), whom ye have crucified (1), both L-rd and Messiah." Acts 2:25-36. King David wrote in Psalm 16: 8-11 this prophecy that was fulfilled in Yeshua's crucifixion death, burial and bodily resurrection. You can recognize the Messiah from the scriptures.
(1) ( this shows the Jews as well as the Gentiles were responsible for the death of Yeshua and both are under condemnation. Matthew 20:18 and 19 shows the Gentiles were the ones that mocked, scourged and crucified Yeshua)

The Holy One
Psalm 16:10 "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption."
Compare with
Matthew 28:5-7 "And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Yeshua(Jesus), which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the L-rd lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo I have told you."
We remember The Messiah's wonderful Resurrection, his blood atonement satisfied the Father once for all.

Peace in the Middle East
The Tenack describes what peace in the middle east will look like and I doubt anyone involved in the middle
east has even imagined what is recorded in the writings of Isaiah 19:23-25" In that day shall there be a
highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and
the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with
Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: Whom the L-RD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be
Egypt my people and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance."
Only the Messiah of Israel, Yeshua, can bring such a thing about.
May he come soon and we all be ready for him.

Doubt #7 We cannot believe in three G-ds
Believing in Yeshua does not make one believe in three G-d's. There are three persons in one divine being. This is described in Isaiah 48:16 (verse 17 goes along with verse 16). "Come ye near unto me, hear ye this, I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I : and now the L-rd G-d , and his Spirit hath sent me, Thus saith the L-RD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the L-RD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go". The L-RD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel is speaking and saying that the L-rd G-d and his Spirit has sent him. The three persons of the G-d head are clearly seen in these two verses,1)- L-rd G-d 2)- his Spirit 3)-L-RD(thy Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel). Also the shema Deuteronomy 6:4 describes G-d as a compound unity with the word "One" used

Doubt #6 Yeshua is not our Messiah
Yeshua is not our Messiah has been around for 2,000 years. Even though no other Name has endured the test of time, not to speak of all the evidence, people still doubt Yeshua being the Messiah. If a person compares the gospels in the New Covenant with Isaiah 53:1-12 of the Tenach there is no doubt left.

Doubt #5 Salvation can only come through works
It is interesting Religion demands works for salvation but never says how much works is enough. The Bible show Abraham was justified by believing Genesis 15:6 "And he believed in the L_RD; and he counted it to him for righteousness." The Bible shows believers are blessed Psalm 2:11,12 "Serve the L_RD with fear and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little, Blessed are all they that put their trust in him."
