MJ is a diverse movement. I know some who believe in blood atonment. You can't make generalizations about them like "Messianics don't believe in the blood atonement." There may be some heretics in the Messianic movement. I would not appreciate someone observing a scientologist and making the conclusion that all American Christians are members of cults. You can't make such generalizations. Link.
