Remembering our jewish rootsOctober 7, 2007
ABRAHAMIC COVENANTI will make you a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you . . . Look up at the heavens and count the stars – if indeed you can count them . . . So shall your offspring be . . . I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come . . . The whole land of Canaan, where you are now an alien, I will give it as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you . . .
GENESIS 12:2-3; 15:5; 17:7-8
MOSAIC COVENANTNow if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession . . . The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways.
EXODUS 19:5; DEUTERONOMY 28:8-9
DAVIDIC COVENANTYour house and your kingdom will endure forever before me; your throne will be established forever . . . For to us a child is born . . . And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace . . . He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom . . . From that time on and forever.

MESSIANIC JEWS & MESSIANIC GENTILESJewish Messiah, Jewish disciples, Jewish festival of Pentecost, Spirit falls on Jews
Paul (Saul) Meets the Messiah, after persecuting followers (Acts 9:1-19)
Peter’s Vision (Acts 10:9-23)
Peter at Cornelius’ & Peter’s explanation (Acts 10:24-11:18)
Could the God of Abraham actually include Gentiles & give them His Spirit??!! An issue of inclusion of Gentiles (absolute reverse of what is to come!).
The Jerusalem Council (Acts 15:1-35) – Messianic Jews & Messianic Gentiles work out differences and find unity GALATIANS 3:28-29!!
“REPLACEMENT” THEOLOGYThe Jewish Olive Tree / Gentiles Graciously Grafted Into the Tree (Romans 11:11-24)So . . . What Happened??!! The development of “Replacement” Theology (that the Church has replaced Jews as God’s people):
A Sample:AD 325 Nicene Council – “polluted wretches”AD 787 2nd Nicene Council – forsake all Jewish customs as Messianic JewsAD 1179 & 1215 Lateran Councils – separate quarters, wear distinctive clothes Martin Luther: . . . “they [the Jews] deserve to be hated. God hates them, and so they are hated by the Apostles and all who are of God.”Adolf Hitler quotes Martin Luther in his classic, Mein Kampf
We as Christians have tragically and cruelly kept Jews from their Messiah. We have taken “possession” of Jesus, Messiah Yeshua! We are either Messianic Jews or Messianic Gentiles . . .
GALATIANS 3:28-29!!

may sing Gregorian chant.”Dietrich Bonhoeffer

A Draft For A Church Confession Of Guilt Which Was Not Made:
“The church was silent where she should have cried out . . . The church confesses that she has witnessed the lawless application of brutal force, the physical and spiritual suffering of countless innocent people, oppression, hatred and murder, and that she has not raised her voice on behalf of the victims and has not found a way to hasten to their aid. She is guilty of the deaths of the weakest and most defenseless brothers of Jesus Christ.”
