QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS: Messianic Jews.
QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS: Messianic Jews.

QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS:

1-What would you call a group who insists that they are believers in Jesus as savior, but deny that He is divine?

2-What would you call a group, some of whom don’t recognize Jesus as co-equal with the Father?

3-What would you call a group, many of whom view sources outside of the Bible as valid as Scripture?

4-What would you call a group who adhere to the Mosaic Law and consider it “to remain fully in force and a holy covenant, to be observed both morally and ritually, by those who profess faith in God.”

Would you call such a group “Christian?”

No.  How could you?

What to call such a group then?

Messianic Jews.

Many Christians consider Messianic Jews to be “brothers and sisters in Christ.”  But are they?  Messianic Jews do not believe in a Trinity or that Jesus is co-equal with the Father.  That’s pretty basic to being a “brother (or sister) in Christ” is it not?

Can one be both a follower of Christ and a keeper of the Law?

James is explicit.

“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.”
–James 2:10

If one is to keep the Law, then one must meet all of its requirements–which requires perfect obedience.

Paul is clear as well.

“Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.”
Galatians 5:4

“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.”
Romans 10:4

“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.”
Galatians 2:21

“Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.”
Romans 7:4

But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.”
Roman 7:6

“But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.”
1 Timothy 1:8-11

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.”
Galatians 3:10

Can a man be saved through belief in Jesus Christ as the only way and cursed at the same time?

The early church had the same problem: those who were confused about keeping the law and trusting in salvation through Christ alone.

“Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:”
Acts 15:24

Once again, if Messianic Jews believed the whole gospel of Jesus Christ, they would be Christians–not Messianic Jews.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3:28

RE: Messianic Jews; Circumcision and Communion.

“Messianic Jews hold that male believers must be circumcised, since it is a part of keeping the Covenant”

“The Messianic worship service does not include communion or the Lord’s Supper”

The simplicity of the gospel–the whole gospel–of Jesus Christ should be preached to Messianic Jews.

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
John 8:36
