Mandate of Israel:
He was a Torah observant Jew. He tried to exhort Israel to remain in the Covenant and not to be contaminated with the worship of angels like the neighboring nations.
When he met Yeshua, he recognized him as the Maschiach (Christ) of Israel who was promised in the Tanach (Old Testament) by Adonai to Israel. He would have been living a way of life that was compatible with the Torah teachings. He was not a Christian of the context of the church. He would have been a messianic Jew, a true christian according to The Bible.
A messianic (christian) believer is one who is in the faith of Israel, not outside of it.
