Messianic Christian?
Messianic Christian?
For all of you who are buying into a supposedly Jewish-Christian movement and are slowly being sunk back into Judaism, here are some thoughts for you to consider.
Within a Christian world view all of the Old Testament and Judaism itself has already been redefined around the Messiah and the Spirit.
We don't celebrate the Passover meal, we celebrate its fulfillment in Christ's death and resurrection; we don't celebrate the feast of Pentecost, we celebrate its fulfillment in the coming of the Holy Spirit, etc. The feasts, Election, Torah, Temple, Land, Eschatology, and Monotheism itself has been redefined and restructured around Christ Jesus the Son of God and the sending of His Spirit.

The Christian Matrix.
The Christian Matrix.
William Lane Craig, who is one of the world's leading apologist, shares that one of the unexpected consequences of the renaissance of his work has been a spiritual awakening in the life of people who are familiar with his resources. This has caught him totally by surprise. It seems that to bring into focus the objectivity of Christianity has broken the spell off of believers who were trapped inside the ethereal matrix world of philosophical speculation.
To know we no longer have to hide truth buried inside the closet of our subjective poetic imagination has reintroduce the power of the Holy Spirit as a dynamic force that confirms the specific worldview of Christianity when it is truly and properly expounded, respected and presented in its proper historical context. The preaching of the gospel has always carried the demonstration of power.
Perhaps the reason we are no longer seeing the demonstration of the power of God is because we are no longer preaching the gospel of Christ instead we have adopted and promoted a new postmodern version of the faith lead by men who lack sensitivity for orthodoxy are irreverent of catholicity are empty of accountability and merely just seek attention for themselves.
