J. Jury (אליהוא) replied to Melvin Creston Williams's discussion Interesting new book."I wholeheartedly agree. I have written a 12 page college thesis on this very topic, drawing on a number of scholarly sources. The earliest form of Christianity was another Jewish sect, like the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, Zealots, etc."

Recently aquired a fascinating new book(2012) by Daniel Boyarin entitled " The Jewish Gospels; The Story of The Jewish Christ". A very interesting read. He writes to demonstrate, among other things, that before the time of Constantine and Nicea, Judaism and Christianity were two views within the same religion. An interesting idea, is it not?Now, don't throw stones at me, read it for yourselves. BTW, Boyarin is a jewish Rabbi, and a Talmudic scholar.…See More

- Other
- About me:
- I find that I do not like catagories. I much prefer to be known simply as a Seeker. Rather than a Messianic Gentile, I am what I would call a "pilgirm shadow". Belief is not the issue, I know that God exists. The truth has been establised long ago. The continued arguments of so-called scholars is superfluous. I am just awaiting for the promise to be fulfilled.
Well, if you want to get personal, I have been a lay speaker and liturgist. Bible study teacher and counselor. I also share the "word" with anyone truly willing to listen. Mostly, I enjoy watching God's will unfold in the world as well as in individual's lives. I enjoy learning about the early history of the "church" and prefer the purist forms of the older teachings. I believe that the teachings are far simpler and uncomplicated than many would suppose. The "simple" truth is always preferable.

Yeshua said,"For I say to you, that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven."(Matt.5v20).
Yeshua said,"But I say to you,love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven..."(Matt.5v44).
And it is written,'I desire Mercy not sacrifice, knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings."(Hosea 6v6).

I originally joined this site to take part in civilized discussions about the true nature and origins of "the faith delivered once for all to the saints." And, to be quite honest and fair, for the most part that is what I have found here. Some interesting discussion with some delightful people. However..........I have also been on the receiving end of some unpleasant peoples "attitudes" , a spirit of "againstness". A sort of religious descrimination. A species of reverse Anti-semitism.
