Daniel is being diplomatic in his language. "Messianic Judaism" is considered by many Jewish leaders to be, like Jews for Jesus, a fraudulent evangelistic movement aimed at converting vnulnerable Jews to Christianity. They use Jewish-style trappings to cloak their true motives and beliefs. Their theological underpinnings which premise three deities are incompatable with Judaism's belief that there is but one God.
Beth Israel is a Messianic synagogue in the area, which is unaffiliated with Ahavath Chesed. Reform Judaism and Messianic Judaism are two completely different religions, with the latter having more in common with Christianity than Rabbinic Judaism, and is more often than not considered a branch of Christianity, not Judaism
