“The earliest Christians were sometimes referred to as Nazarenes, particularly by their Jewish contemporaries. In later church history, the term was [still] applied to a sect of Jewish Christians of the 4th century who observed Jewish ritual, including circumcision, the Sabbath, and the dietary laws. They also believed in the divinity of Christ and the apostleship of St. Paul. The Nazarenes differed from another group of Jewish Christians, the Ebionites, in both their beliefs and in their refusal to require that Gentile Christians observe the Jewish rituals.” – Encarta Encylopedia

Yahdah (Juda) 1:3, "Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write to you about the common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for the faith which was once, for all, delivered to the saints. For there are certain men who have secretly crept in, who were before of old ordained for this condemnation, unholy men, who turn the undeserved pardon of our One Supreme Savior Yahweh into licentiousness, and deny Yahshua our Messiah."

Colossians 3:1-4, "If then you are risen with the Messiah, seek those things which are from on high, where the Messiah sits at the right hand of Yahweh. Set your understanding and will on things from on high, not on things on the earth: For you are dead, and your life is hid with the Messiah in Yahweh. When Messiah--our life--will appear, then you will also appear with Him in glory."
