There was a movement started in about 150, almost 2,000 years ago, to make Christianity a new religion rather than an outgrowth of Judaism as it is told of in Isaiah. By 350 a Roman Emperor had made it into a law that much of the OT with its teaching of God principles was not only not to be listened to, but it was outlawed. New holidays where made into this new religion that more closely followed how these pagans that made up the bulk of the members were used to. All the old holidays and even their diet was changed to be more in keeping with the new members.
There was scripture they could use. The Jews had tried to get these pagans to do everything they did in ways they worshipped as the main idea of worshipping Christ and God. We have whole scripture books against that being what Christ is about. This new movement took those scriptures to make them the creed for their new ideas of God, they changed the teaching of our new growth possible through Christ to a teaching to ignore God principles.
Now, our world has gone through the holocaust, saying the Jews should all be killed. We were startled at someone killing them. Then things that were prophesied for the last days started happening for the first time and Jerusalem became current news. There was a finding of ancient writings that had been lost in some caves, almost in plain view for thousands of years. Scholars went to work on them and found it opened up ancient language. That opened up the ability to understand items they had found over the years about ancient people. This led to a better understanding of what God was teaching in the OT. This led to a movement in the family of God to include more OT teachings as they learn about Christ.
Some in Christ’s family are going back to how it was in the first century Christian church. They are doing what the book of Hebrews teaches, they are making the understanding of Christ as our Savior a growing from the OT, instead of a new God.
There are many people who are acting like the Pharisees acted when Christ told them of what God had for them. They say our church has been this way for 2,000 years, how could anyone dare change it. They say it can’t be of God, that Constantine was right, he opened up the world to Christ, how could anything he said not be reporting only from God? What about what scripture tells us of rituals, they say, and these people are looking at rituals again. That isn’t of God, they say, it is going back not building upon. We are told we must get rid of it.
I think we should all get out scripture, listen to the HS, and that would teach us to follow Christ as a pathway to the Father. Those against this say that Christ destroyed much of the Father, yet Christ said He did not come to destroy.
Mat_5:17 "Don't assume that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did notcome to destroy butto fulfill.
Constantine himself would approve of my church, yet they are so changing that there is a class given in archeology, with knowing more intimately OT culture. My friend has so changed that he is going to a class in town given by a professor with knowledge of ancient (as opposed to modern) Hebrew. I have discussed some of this with my pastor until he told me never to bring it up to him again. He passed me in the hall the other day and stopped just long enough to say there could be something in what I’m studying before he hurried along. God is moving in His church.
