  1. Today’s Judaizers are busy about dividing the Church, i.e., Jew and Gentile believers. Paul scolded Peter for such an appearance of doing and the apostles made it clear that Gentiles need not become Jews first and that Jews who still kept the feast days were immature believers if they did it as a supplement to Christ’s work for their salvation.

    There is neither Jew nor Gentile in this Church Age.

  2. FTA: The Hebrew Roots movement began emerging as a distinct phenomenon in the mid-1990s (1993–96).[5] In 1997, Dean Cozzens of Open Church Ministries (Colorado Springs, CO) published a prophecy titled “The Hebrew Movement”, which revealed that God had foreordained four major moves for the 20th century, Pentecostalism, Faith-healing, the Charismatic Movement and finally the Hebrew Roots Movement. In this prophecy, the Hebrew Roots Movement is the “final stage of empowerment” before Christ returns. Several Hebrew Roots ministries are now preferring to use the term Awakening instead of the term “movement” which has been used widely since the 1960s to define politicaly oriented movements.[5]

    1. FTA: Christian Hebrew Roots Movement

      The Hebrew Roots movement is related to a subgroup known as “Christian Hebrew Roots.” This subgroup follows the Ten Commandments (Ex 20:3-17) and the feasts of the Lord (Lev 23:1-44), but like mainstream Christianity it believes that all other Old Testament requirements have been “done away with”.[20]

      The Christian Hebrew Roots movement rejects many of the same practices of mainstream Christianity that the Hebrew Roots movement rejects. In particular, they reject the Catholic Church’s “transubstantiation” doctrine, and instead follow what it sees as the biblical teachings set forth in the New Testament regarding the “nature of Communion” as a symbol of Christ’s body instead of the literal body and flesh of Jesus. This, they deduce from the words Jesus spoke to describe what they call an “amendment” to the Passover service being symbolic and not literal (in accordance with how they interpret the New Testament Greek).[21]

      The Christian Hebrew Roots movement does not teach a return to the law as dispensed by the scribes who Jesus rebuked as hypocrites. They interpret the “law” as pertaining to the Torah, and not the Jewish Oral Law, as the Hebrew Roots movement interprets it.[22][not in citation given] Instead, the Christian Hebrew Roots movement follows what it claims is the worship pattern of Jesus, whom they claim freed mankind from the yoke of the letter of the law; and, in fulfilling the law, Jesus taught Christians to practice only the Ten Commandments and feasts of the Lord which make up “the acceptable year of the Lord”[23] in his speech inaugurating his personal earthly ministry.

    FTA: Christians may pick out a verse or two from Romans 9 – 11 and miss the context completely. In much of that section, Paul is talking about what it means to be a true Jew. He says that a true Jew is not one outwardly (he says that early on, in Romans 2:28). He later defines what makes a true Jew and compares a true Jew with a false Jew. Just because someone was born as a Jew does not necessarily make them a true Jew in God’s eyes. However, Paul is also clear that a Gentile is never considered by God to be a “Jew.” Please read Romans 9 – 11 in one sitting. Read it through several times to get the feel and flow. In fact, I would strongly encourage you to read the entirety of Romans in one sitting.
