A Polite Response to Andrew Strom’s Article

by J. Jacob Prasch

My family are Hebrew-speaking Israeli Jews who believe in Jesus and retain Jewish culture. Our ministry Moriel has published three articles warning about the extreme axis of the Messianic Movement that lifts up Jewishness instead of Jesus-ness and seeks to place non-Jews under Torah and Sabbatarian observance. It is an issue also addressed in my last book.

Humility (2)

Berean — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 22:58:54 +0000

Many people have a false impression of the purpose of humility. They believe that it is a means by which we gain “approval” by God.
