For instance I read that they were founded by a Jewish man, the majority of staff is Jewish and they use Jewish evangelism, not Christian evangelism which one may assume.
I have never heard of "jewish evangelism" Jews do NOT try to convert others. It doesn't exist. Conversion to Judaism is an extremely lengthy process to ensure only those who truly believe will convert.

And like other people have said, once you believe that Jesus is the messiah, you no longer are recognized as a Jew, but rather a Christian. Jews for Jesus are ethnicially Jewish, but have essentially renounced their Judaism.

it is absolutely a 100% Christian denomination. The whole point is to try to convert Jews into Christians.
