Many people in today’s Messianic community treat the seventh-day Sabbath as a kind of “Saturday church” more than as a time to rest from labor, focus on God and one’s brethren, and enter into something special.
Christian Tradition
J.K. McKee of Messianic Apologetics reviews how a Messianic congregation or assembly, has various similarities and differences between a Jewish synagogue or a Protestant church.
J.K. McKee of Messianic Apologetics responds to three categories of questions: Tanach (OT), Apostolic Scriptures (NT), and theology/Biblical Studies.
1. Does Leviticus 11 only command ethnic Israelites to follow the kosher dietary laws?
2. Yeshua says that only God is good.
3. Are today’s Messianic people “Christians”?
Are Christian people who do not keep Torah hopelessly lost? I notice that your ministry freely, and sometimes liberally, quotes Christian Bible scholars. There are a great number of people in the Hebrew Roots movement who think that they have a corner on the “truth,” and that everyone else is in error.
Do you believe that the Torah or Law of Moses is binding on Christians?
Do you think that Messianic congregations should practice communion with bread and wine on a regular basis? I have noticed that some do, and some do not.
Why does today’s Messianic movement generally frown on the works of Christian Biblical scholarship?
