Assembly Quest: Walking

Assembly Quest: Walking

I am more than a little disturbed by an early line in this particular "post." Viz. "Christianity differs from Judaism in only a few points." Even allowing for the next statement, no doubt intending some clarification of that sentence, it is a grave error.

Acts 15:1 and 15:10 warned against Judaizing teachers, and their specious teaching, at Antioch. Similar cautions were given to the Assemblies in Corinth and Galatia. Almost the entire Epistle to the Galatians is written to expose the folly and wickedness of those seek to put the saints of God under the law.

e.g. 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Galatians 1:6-9; 3:1. And how numerous are the great contrasts between Judaism and Christianity found in the Epistle to the Hebrews; too many to attempt a list!

I felt constrained to write a "comment" as this evil work has not diminished over the centuries, and is enjoying a devilish "revival" at this present time. It still retains its plausibility and attraction for the fleshly, and the  ill-instructed believer. Often it is coated with the veneer for especial love for Israel.

At least one of these highly regarded "teachers," has wrought not a little havoc in an Assembly dear to my heart, resulting in a huge "split."

"Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision," Philippians 3:2; if you would be free from the infection of a Judaized Christianity or perhaps a Christianised Judaism!
