It's a Great read

Great book I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new perspective on things

Restoring the Jewishness of the Gospel: A Message for Christians (Paperback)

This is an excellent book, I think that all serious Christians, should have this book in there collection. In fact Christians should buy two of them one to keep for themselves and another to give to another believer to read. I have learned a lot, and it has changed my mind (in a good way) about the gospel. I highly recommend this book. The book was in excellent condition, and I received it in a timely manor.

Begin your search for the Jewish roots of Christiantiy

This book is short and enlightening. It is a wonderful start for the person beginning to seek understanding of the Jewish context of Christianity. You will see the story unfold of the "church" Jesus intended to establish; of the Jewish origin of Christianity; and of Jesus' life in the Jewish culture. Then, learn how Judaism and Christianity can and will be restored as one. Lastly, learn why your wrong if you think the "law" was the old testament. Order "The Parables" by Brad Young or "Understanding the Difficult Words of Jesus" by David Bivin, with this book, because you will be thristy for more truth.

Monumental Work that Opens Up the New Testament

Christianity has its roots in Judaism, and David Stern proves that there her roots must remain. Although the Apostles agreed that gentile believers in the Messiah need not become Jewish, later church councils decided that believers in Messiah could no longer be Jewish. But the evidence of Scripture clearly points out that first century believers had no problem continuing an identification as a "sect of the Jews."Stern demonstrates how the Church, an outgrowth of Judaism, cut itself off from its roots and has suffered because of it.Although a few interpretations are strained (esp. his interpretation of the relationship of the Law to New Testament believers in Galatians), the book is a real eye opener. Anybody who values Bible interpretation would do well to read it, esp. pastors and professors, though it is understandable to a serious laymen.This book will stretch your mind and help you to "see" passages you never "saw." As a serious student of the Word, pastor of 20 years, and someone who values thoughtful interpretation, I say this book is a must.

Start getting back to the gospel that Jesus taught

This booklet is a good starting point, not elementary but concise, to realizing the Jewish context of the Bible. I highly recommend this book, but more importantly I encourage the "Called Out Ones" to study the subject and get back to our Jewish roots.
