HEBRAIC ROOTS: AN INTRODUCTORY STUDY

Have you been in the Messianic movement for some time? Do you know why you are in the Messianic movement? Do you need a re-introduction to the Hebraic Roots of our faith and who Yeshua truly is in His Biblical and historical Hebraic context? Do you want to know what God is doing in this hour?

Hebraic Roots: An Introductory Study has been written to be a primer for the emerging number of people who are being drawn to a more comprehensive grasp of the ancient roots of our Biblical faith. As a family that has been active in the Hebraic Roots movement for since 1995, we came to the unanimous conclusion that a book about many of the areas for growth would be beneficial to the thousands that are being prompted into a pursuit of the Hebraic Roots of the faith exhibited by the Patriarchs.

This volume examines a number of areas for study and discussion, and will prompt questions for personal reflection or group discussion in twelve easy lessons. Each chapter has study questions that will enable you to think and examine the Scriptures as never before. If you are unfamiliar with the Messianic movement and some of its basic beliefs and lifestyle practices, then Hebraic Roots is the book for you!

SCRIPTURE UNDER SCRUTINY:
WAS THE NEW TESTAMENT REALLY WRITTEN IN HEBREW?

The Messianic movement today is wrestling with many issues that need to be addressed from a scholastic and detailed perspective. In many sectors of the Messianic community it is taught and strongly claimed that the Apostolic Scriptures (or the New Testament) were originally written in Hebrew. Is this true? Can this belief be legitimately supported with an understanding of Biblical history, textual criticism, and a sound ideology that has the salvation of the nations in mind? Or is this belief something based in anything but these factors?

If we examine each text of the Apostolic Scriptures, can we see that they were written in Hebrew—or in Greek? Are the Greek Scriptures nothing less than a shoddy amalgamation of texts, while the Hebrew Scriptures have been “perfectly preserved” since Mount Sinai? What role should the Greek Septuagint play in our exegesis of Scripture? These are some of the many questions that we should all be asking when critically examining the written origin of the Apostolic Scriptures and gospel message of Messiah Yeshua. After this study, you will not need to be confused by misinformation and speculative claims any more! You will have sound, secure, and researched answers to the questions being asked in our emerging movement.

MESSIANIC SPRING HOLIDAY HELPER

The Spring holiday season lasting from Purim to Passover to Shavuot is one of the most important times a year for today’s Messianic community. Many important themes regarding God’s salvation history are emphasized during this season, which often attract the attention of many Christians interested in their Hebraic Roots. To help you and your household prepare for the Spring holidays, the Messianic Spring Holiday Helper offers a selection of articles on: Purim, Passover, the Festival of Unleavened Bread, and Shavuot. Various traditions associated with these festivals and customary Scriptures read during this time are considered—as is the dual emphasis of both the Exodus and Resurrection of Yeshua. Believers have many things to consider during the Spring season that are surely worthy of commemoration within the framework of our Father’s appointed times! Also included are some Passover recipes and a brief hagaddah you can use in your home for the sedar meal.

Remembering the seventh-day Sabbath or Shabbat is one of the principal elements of the Messianic lifestyle.

Of course, there are many questions surrounding the significance of the Sabbath, and how it is to be respected. The Messianic Sabbath Helper is intended to aid you in your desire to obey the Lord every week. We have included articles on the importance of Shabbat, the differences between Shabbat and Sunday Church, how we as Believers can practically honor the Sabbath, insights on how to handle the Sabbath with our family and friends who may presently not understand, and a practical guide to observing Shabbat with your family.

DOES THE NEW TESTAMENT
ANNUL THE BIBLICAL APPOINTMENTS?
© 2008 TNN Press

Today’s Messianic community believes and advocates that our Heavenly Father is restoring the celebration of the Biblical appointments or moedim, chiefly found in Leviticus 23. Messianic Believers find great enrichment every year going through these annual festivals, rehearsing God’s plan of salvation history. We bereave the fact that too many of our Christian brethren have not partaken of the blessings of knowing things like the Passover, Shavuot, or Sukkot.

Some say that because of Yeshua’s sacrifice at Golgotha (Calvary), the Torah or Law of Moses has been abolished, and thus the moedim or appointed times are done away with, annulled, and abolished. Some believe that they might be important for us to understand in an historical sense for understanding the Bible, but not to be followed as standard elements of our orthopraxy. There are those who say that the Apostle Paul gave us specific instruction in his epistles that we are no longer to celebrate the “Old Testament holidays.”

Does the New Testament Annul the Biblical Appointments? takes a look at Galatians 4:9-11, Colossians 2:16-17, and Romans 14:5-6, providing answers to the Messianic or Christian Believer with critical questions.

LOOKING AT THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES
© 2008 TNN Press

How many of you have been bombarded with the idea that “the End” is certainly close, because of all the “unusual” geological and meteorological activities that seem to be occurring at a rate never seen before? How many of you have been told certain things about all of the earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, comets, and even blood red moons that are heralding certain doom?

It is said of all the scientists that it is the geologist who is the best suited to view the Earth in its entirety. This means that he or she will understand how this dynamic Earth on which we live is connected to the geological, climatological, and astronomical events we see all around us on the ground and in the sky, and help others understand. God has created an amazing place on which to place His Creation!

Margaret McKee Huey of Outreach Israel Ministries, a geologist, tackles some of the important signs of the End that are seen in the Holy Scriptures. This teaching, Looking at the Signs of the Times, addresses important end-time phenomenon from a scientifically minded perspective.

ANSWERING THE
"FREQUENTLY AVOIDED QUESTIONS"
ABOUT THE MESSIAHSHIP OF YESHUA
© 2008 TNN Press

One of the oldest debates that has existed between Jews and Christians for two millennia is whether or not Yeshua of Nazareth is the promised Messiah. Most of Judaism has rejected Yeshua as Messiah for a number of reasons, and has developed arguments against who He is. These reasons shake the faith of the naïve and undiscerning.

As a direct response to the rise of Messianic Judaism in the past thirty years, and Jewish people coming to faith in Yeshua, the anti-missionary movement within Orthodox Judaism has arisen. Anti-missionaries target Jewish Believers for re-conversion back to a Messiah-less Judaism. Now, as many Christians have investigated their Hebraic Roots and shown a greater love for the Jewish people and traditions of Judaism, many have found themselves as easy prey for the arguments levied against Yeshua by the same anti-missionaries—and many more are denying the Lord.

In Answering the “Frequently Avoided Questions” Against the Messiahship of Yeshua, TNN Online editor J.K. McKee demonstrates how weak many of the anti-missionary arguments are, especially as they are presented from an Orthodox Jewish theology that sits in a textual and historical vacuum. Ten of the common reasons given against Yeshua’s Messiahship are carefully refuted from an engaged perspective. Also considered are some of the future challenges that exist in Messianic theology that are directly connected to people who renounce faith in Yeshua as Messiah.

ANSWERING THE
"FREQUENTLY AVOIDED QUESTIONS"
ABOUT THE DIVINITY OF YESHUA
© 2008 TNN Press

Whether or not Yeshua the Messiah is Divine, or was just a human empowered by God, is an old debate going back several millennia. It is not that surprising that the Divinity of Yeshua has been under attack in today’s emerging Messianic community. Per a great deal of hostility displayed toward “Christian theology,” many consider a Divine Savior to be an errant belief that needs to be discarded—and claim to have Scriptural support for their case.

In recent days, a sector of Messianics have arisen that forcibly assert that Yeshua is not God in the flesh. They have used a variety of means to do so, primarily by catch phrases and overly-simplistic assertions made about Biblical concepts. While some claim to have support against Yeshua’s Divinity, does their support really stand up to close scrutiny? Have people stayed away from the subject because the “frequently avoided questions” are actually very easy to answer?

In Answering the “Frequently Avoided Questions” Against the Divinity of Yeshua, TNN Online editor J.K. McKee demonstrates this issue to indeed be one of salvation, and the level of engagement of anti-Divinity Messianics to be surface level at best. Also included is the article “What Does the Shema Really Mean?” which analyzes the oneness of God, and whether or not the Father and Son can co-exist.

THE EFFECT OF MYSTICISM AND GNOSTICISM ON THE MESSIANIC MOVEMENT
© 2008 TNN Press

As today’s Messianic community strives to return to the First Century faith of the Disciples and Apostles, we will not just be facing “common problems” like adultery, idolatry, or even sins such as lying. We will also contend with some of the very specific religious problems that the First Century ekklēsia faced. Very few when examining Scripture, unfortunately, fail to consider it in its historical context. Many do not have an understanding of First Century Judaism, Greco-Roman religion, Second and Third Century Christianity, and the various mystery religions and cults that existed. Too many fail to consider the gross religious errors that were circulating throughout the First Century that affected the early Believers in Yeshua—and how some of these same errors are affecting Believers today.

Have you encountered any current Messianic teachings that relate to Jewish mysticism, Kabbalah, numerology, Hebrew letter pictures, the Bible code, or the Gnostic Scriptures? Do you ever question where these things actually come from and where they are seen in religious history? Are you wondering if these things have any Biblical basis and true spiritual value? TNN Online editor J.K. McKee directly addresses the problem of mysticism and Gnosticism in the Messianic movement, and how we need to be aware that these things are being used by the enemy to draw many people away from the truth of the gospel and mission that God has for us.

YOU WANT TO BE A PHARISEE
© 2007 TNN Press

Having the accusation of being a “Pharisee” is one that is not only commonly used by some Christians against Messianic Believers, but has become integrated into the vernacular language of many Christians relating to any individual or group that is perceived as being legalistic and/or archaic in their approach to society and the Bible. It is perceived among many people that being “Pharisaical” is a status that no born again Believer should even try to attain to, because after all, were not the Pharisees the primary antagonists of Jesus Christ? Did not Yeshua have most of His conflicts with the Pharisees and the Pharisaical religious system? Did He not rebuke the Pharisees time and time again for their keeping of the Law?

Few are aware of the fact that the foundational ideas of Messianic faith are firmly rooted within the tenets of Pharisaism. The beliefs in angels, demons, miracles, an afterlife, the Holy Spirit, and the resurrection all stem from the Pharisees. Without a theology based in Pharisaism, today’s evangelical Christianity has little to stand upon.

TNN Online editor J.K. McKee addresses the significance of Pharisaical theology to Messianic Believers, and how we can work beyond some of the extremes we often face.

REVISITING THE TWO-HOUSE TEACHING
© 2007 TNN Press

The Two-House teaching of Judah and Ephraim has become a lightning rod in much of the Messianic community. Many believe it is a claim to a person’s lost “birthright,” whereby all Believers should begin to take a stake in the Land of Israel and make aliyah. Many others also believe that the Two-House teaching is a form of racially-based salvation, with redemption only available to physical descendants of the Patriarchs. Is this really what the Two-House teaching is as defined by the prophecies of Scripture?

Those who recognize what the Two-House teaching actually is—a critical and often overlooked component in the end-time restoration of God’s Kingdom—are often sidelined from the extremism that commonly dominates the current discussions. Yet, an objective and moderate approach to the issue is absolutely imperative if all Israel is to be gathered together prior to the return of Yeshua.

In Revisiting the Two-House Teaching TNN Online editor J.K. McKee explains what the restoration of Israel is from the Scriptures, how Israel has a mandate from God to bless the entire world, and how Messianic Believers must change their approach to this topic in order to be effective in His service.

THE QUEST FOR CREDIBILITY
© 2007 TNN Press

Today's Messianic movement is reaching out to fill a need in the lives of people who desire renewal in their relationship with God. Many have been blessed as they have adopted a lifestyle of Torah obedience and in understanding the ministry of Yeshua from a First Century Jewish perspective. Yet as the Messianic community has grown, so have there appeared various obstacles to some of the objectives we believe that the Lord is desiring to see accomplished.

What three areas of teaching will seriously discredit the Messianic movement in the minds of those who are sincerely convicted about the message of Torah observance and the restoration of all Israel? TNN Online editor J.K. McKee addresses these three areas: (1) Denial of the Divinity of Yeshua the Messiah, (2) Denial of the Inspiration of the Greek New Testament, (3) Treating Christians with utter contempt and hatred.

How are we to become a force of positive change for the community of faith in the coming years? How will we be considered believable? These, and other pertinent questions, are asked in The Quest for Credibility.

THE ROLE OF HISTORY IN MESSIANIC BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION
© 2007 TNN Press

The need to understand the passages of the Bible in their original historical and cultural contexts cannot be overstated in an age when criticism against the Scriptures is at an all time high. How is today's Messianic movement to adopt a more valid historical approach to Scripture that considers the larger world that Ancient Israel found itself? How are we to properly employ extra-Biblical literature in interpreting the Biblical text? How are we to understand the worldview of those who originally participated in the Biblical events?

These are some very important questions to consider as today's Messianic theology moves ahead, and as we contemplate our role in an ever-decreasing world beset by globalization and multi-culturalism. How important it is for us to understand the diversity of the Bible, and how it might effect our role and mission as the people of God today?

TNN Online editor J.K. McKee addresses this subject in a thorough, challenging, yet reasonable way―as Messianic Believers seek to be a people who can be used effectively in God's service today.

THE TOP TEN URBAN MYTHS OF TODAY'S MESSIANIC MOVEMENT

Over the past ten years (1997-2007), the Messianic movement has been able to grow in leaps and bounds. New people are coming to a revelation of their Hebraic Roots and congregations are budding. But the theology of the Messianic community and our Biblical studies have largely not been able to keep up with the growth. As a result, this has led to a significant number of concepts and ideas floating around that are not only non-scriptural, but also non-factual.

What are some things that have been permitted to circulate in the Messianic movement that classify as being non-factual, and at best someone’s opinion? What are some of the areas where we need to progress in order to become a mature and stable move of God? What are some of the challenges before us?

In a detailed yet pragmatic way, TNN Online editor J.K. McKee tackles the challenges of the “top ten” urban myths floating in our midst. He encourages a positive change on behalf of Messianic Believers so that we can all be empowered by the Lord to make a significant difference on our local communities and the world at large.

SAYINGS OF THE FATHERS:
A MESSIANIC PERSPECTIVE ON PIRKEI AVOT

The Mishnah tractate Pirkei Avot or Sayings of the Fathers is a compilation of wise sayings, proverbs, and anecdotes dating from the Third Century B.C.E.-Third Century C.E., forming the basis of ancient Jewish ethics. Many significant parallels can be seen between remarks made in the Pirkei Avot and the wisdom sayings or teachings of Yeshua the Messiah, James the Just, and the Apostles Peter and Paul. In the Jewish community today, the Pirkei Avot are traditionally read and considered during the seven weeks between the festivals of Passover and Shavuot.

Sayings of the Fathers: A Messianic Perspective on Pirkei Avot takes readers through not just one, but two years of fifty-day reflections—and six bonus days—of some of the ancient wisdom seen in this valuable text. You will not only be introduced to some of the key views present in the Apostolic period, but also be able to weigh the value that the Jewish Sages have in your own personal study and reflection upon the Scriptures. Be prepared to join into an ancient discussion that spans the ages as you reflect on these words. Be blessed as your faith and outlook on the world are enriched, and you have more to take to your Heavenly Father in prayer!

COUNTING THE OMER:
A DAILY DEVOTIONAL TOWARD SHAVUOT

Have you ever considered the command of Leviticus 23:15-16 to Count the Omer, and wondered how this applies in the modern era?

“You shall also count for yourselves from the day after the sabbath, from the day when you brought in the sheaf of the wave offering; there shall be seven complete sabbaths. You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh sabbath; then you shall present a new grain offering to the LORD” (Leviticus 23:15-16).

Have you ever wondered how this decree could be more meaningful and fulfilling in your Messianic walk of faith? What critical lessons can be learned in the time between the festivals of Passover and Shavuot?

If you can identify with these questions, then Counting the Omer: A Daily Devotional Toward Shavuot is just the book for you!

Written with an emphasis to deepen your walk with the Messiah of Israel, this daily devotional has fifty succinct reflections from the Book of Psalms that can energize and guide your personal commitment to obey and please our Heavenly Father!

THE TWO HOUSES OF ISRAEL: THE COMING RESTORATION OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
© 2008 TNN Press

The Messianic movement originally started in the 1960s as an evangelistic outreach of Jewish Believers in Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus) to their fellow Jews. As an unforeseen side effect, it has swelled considerably since the late 1990s with significant numbers of non-Jewish Believers embracing their Hebraic Roots. Why is this the case? Are such people just eager to know more about the Bible and experience greater spiritual fulfillment? Or is there more that needs to be considered for the future?

With a Messianic movement, whose majority of people are not Jewish, important questions about Israel have undoubtedly been asked. Are non-Jewish Messianics people who are beginning to reclaim their lost Jewish ancestry? Are they actually members of the scattered Northern Kingdom of Israel or the “Lost Tribes”? Or is it that the prophesied restoration of Israel as testified in the Scriptures is simply more involved and more comprehensive than exclusively including the Jewish people? These are all provocative questions that have been asked over the past decade, and have obviously stimulated a great amount of debate and controversy.

A diverse array of answers has arisen to these questions, with today’s Two-House Messianic movement often in the center of the discussion. Some of the answers offered are Biblically sound, and others are not. Some of the issues that have presented themselves have been conducted in an honest spirit of inquiry, and others have been forced because of sensationalism and opportunism. It is undeniable that a great deal of opposition to the basic Two-House message has come forth from both Messianic Judaism and evangelicalism, but also that various Two-House advocates have added outside teachings to the basic message of Israel’s restoration, perhaps compounding some confusion.

For a Messianic movement preparing to enter into the 2010s, TNN Online editor J.K. McKee takes a fresh and reasonable look at the Two-House teaching of Judah, scattered Ephraim, and the nations being brought together as one people in the Lord. The Two Houses of Israel: The Coming Restoration of the Kingdom of God examines the Biblical basis of the Two-House teaching, various objections that have arisen to it, required refinement and change that must take place among its advocates, and also the mission of what it means to be “Israel” often overlooked by most Messianics (Two-House or not). He offers a new style of looking at the Two-House teaching, especially for a broad Messianic movement that is trying to determine what its long term goals are to be—as we eagerly await the return of Yeshua and the establishment of His reign from Zion!

INTRODUCTION TO THINGS MESSIANIC

Are you new to the Messianic movement? Do you have questions about what the Messianic movement, lifestyle, and Messianic theologies are all about? Do you need answers on a wide variety of issues with some detailed information? If these are the questions you have been asking, then Introduction to Things Messianic is a book that will definitely benefit you.

Written to the new person investigating Messianic things, Introduction to Things Messianic is a compilation of articles that will inform the inquirer on a wide array of Messianic topics relevant to the current state and growth of our movement, including:

•  Is “the Church” truly a new group of elect?
•  Is the Torah or Law of Moses truly relevant for Believers today?
•  Who were the ancient Pharisees and what did they believe?
•  What is this “Two-House teaching” that I hear so much about?
•  Am I required to keep the Sabbath?
•  What are the Biblical festivals?
•  Am I required to eat kosher?
•  Why do many Messianics use the proper name of God?
•  What do Messianics think about the end-times?
•  How do I properly grow in this new walk of faith?

These questions, and many more, are discussed and detailed in Introduction to Things Messianic. This book builds on the foundational material in Hebraic Roots: An Introductory Study in a much more thorough way for those wanting an in-depth view of these basic issues. Introduction to Things Messianic can be used for a single person or a group Bible study, as study questions follow each chapter. It can also be used easily along with the available lecture series companion by author J.K. McKee.

THE NEW TESTAMENT VALIDATES TORAH

Does the New Testament Really Do Away With the Law?

The New Testament Validates Torah is a study that we all need. We as Messianic Believers know that we should follow the Torah or the Law of Moses, and that Yeshua the Messiah did not come to abolish or do away with it. Yet, many of us cannot respond to arguments commonly made by Christian theologians and pastors from the Apostolic Scriptures (New Testament), which supposedly prove that the Law has been “done away.” The New Testament Validates Torah answers the so-called Scriptural claims against Torah obedience in a fair-minded and scholarly way.

TNN Online editor J.K. McKee addresses many of the claims given as why we should follow God’s Torah. He addresses how the words of Yeshua are final in relation to how we handle other New Testament Scriptures that address the Law of Moses. He addresses claims such as: “we’re not under the Law,” “Christ is the end of the Law,” “all things are lawful,” and “He abolished the Law of commandments contained in ordinances.” These Scriptures are placed into a proper Biblical context, and when necessary translation errors from Greek into English are discussed and analyzed.

The New Testament Validates Torah is an apologetic study that all Messianic Believers need. It emphasizes the need for us to know what we believe, and above all be the testimony of a positive spiritual change to Christians who do not understand our convictions. It encourages a return to holy living and an appreciation for the tapestry of all of God’s Word.

THE DANGERS OF PRE-TRIBULATIONISM

The pre-tribulation rapture is an extremely popular doctrine that advocates that Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) will one day come, unexpectedly, for the saints, and gather them into Heaven prior to the Tribulation period. This teaching has sold many books and created a large financial market for prophecy materials. But in spite of its popularity, few Believers question it. When presented with alternative points of view such as post-tribulationism, those of the popular pre-tribulational position oftentimes vehemently criticize or call such people heretics.

This report is an expanded edition of one of TNN Online’s most controversial articles. It answers the top reasons why people believe in the pre-tribulation rapture from a Messianic post-trib perspective. It exposes the manipulation of Scripture on the part of pre-tribulationists and why the pre-trib rapture cannot be ideologically supported. It refutes the fifty reasons given in support of the pre-trib rapture by former Dallas Theological Seminary chancellor John F. Walvoord. This book supplements When Will the Messiah Return? by responding to the arguments of the escapist pre-tribulation rapture doctrine, but with the fairness that is often not given to post-tribulationists.

TORAH IN THE BALANCE, VOLUME I
© 2003 TNN Press

“The Validity of the Torah and Its Practical Life Applications”

Torah In the Balance, Volume I is a desperately needed book, as it addresses many of the important aspects of God’s Torah for today’s emerging Messianic community. Subjects addressed include: why Believers need the Torah, the foundational importance of the Ten Commandments, the Biblical appointments and various human replacements for them, and the validity of the dietary commandments. While Messianic positions of these issues often clash with those of evangelical Christianity today, they are considered in a fair and reasonable manner that encourages positive dialogue and solutions. A great deal of scholastic engagement and support is offered for a positive view of these aspects of faith on the part of today’s Believers.

This book will prove to be very important as it emphasizes the importance of the Messianic lifestyle, and those struggling to demonstrate it properly in today’s world. It encourages understanding and grace between Messianic Believers who differ on the life application of God’s Torah, and between Messianics and Christians who may not presently see eye-to-eye on the Torah’s place in the life of a follower of God. Torah In the Balance, Volume I is an important addition to any Messianic library, and should be read by those desiring not only a comprehensive understanding regarding what the Lord is doing in this hour, but the great responsibility we have been endowed by Him. And with everything, the transforming power of God’s love is emphasized above all! This resource encourages growth and maturity on the part of all His people.
