    My issue is that the religion of the pharisees, ie, Judaism, is not the religion of Moses. Do you disagree? Jews just means followers of the pharisees' religion; Ancient Israelites were followers of Moses (at least the obedient ones were)

    Because they were living in Judea under the authority of the Judean pharisees

    lol I'd say you do have me wrong because they are the words of Paul, not me. Well; because of unbelief they {Jews} were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: Romans 11:20 And they also, if they [Jews] abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is...

    Abraham was the father of Isaac,, Jacob and the 12 tribes of Israel, of which Judah was one of them. The word Jew, which means Judean, didn't start referring to all of the tribes of Israel until much, much later.

    Another look at John 10.

    The fruit of the spirit is produced by obeying the spirit and the word. So by heeding the word of God and the witness of the spirit one learns to exercise self control in order to conform to God's will

    That's not what self-control means. It means I control my actions and behavior according to the word of God and the witness of the spirit

    Sorry, I missed that. It depends on what you calling the law and mean by establish. God selected Aaron in Exodus to be his priest. The ordering and conduct of the priesthood is described in several books. So if that is all law to you then yes. It was before the captivity.

    But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, leniency, graciousness, goodness, belief, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23

    He doesn't live through me as if I'm a sock puppet or something, he lives in me through his spirit which teaches me how to walk and conduct myself in ways that are pleasing to him. I control myself, which is a fruit of the spirit And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the...

    the Sabbath

    I have. I used to go to a messianic church. Never noticed any difference. It's the spirit that matters, not the day of the week

    Judaism was the religion of the Judean pharisees, not Moses. It originated in Judea, not Sinai. They esteemed their traditions above Moses [Jesus] answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their...

    Terminology is important because darkness hides in obscurity and vagueness. Start focusing on the nits and you will expose and drive out the darkness

    Those were Judeans returned from the Babylonian captivity, not the tribes of Israel that were scattered throughout the nations a couple of centuries earlier when the kingdom of Israel was destroyed in 722BC

    It doesn't matter. Unbelieving Israel and Judah were broken off from the root and the only way back for them is to be grafted back in as any other person must be. There is no difference

    How was it Levitical Judaism? Judah had nothing to do with the priesthood until the order of Melchizedek. The children of Israel were not called Jews, ie Judeans, back then.

    Levitical Judaism didn't appear until after Judah's Babylonian captivity

    the Sabbath

    The 4th commandment has become a stumbling block to carnally minded sabbatarians because they haven't learned to distinguish between the spirit of the law (righteous purpose or effect) and the letter of the law (carnal observance). Every other commandment they can fit into the two great...
