Not necessarily. Messianic Judaism is its own sect, with their own rabbis and synagogues. They even include gentile converts in their congregations.
If you're a Catholic convert (baptised and confirmed), you're a Catholic, regardless of your DNA.
What's not to like . . especially if it is correct? The Apostles were Messianic Jews. You don't want to be associated with them? I don't get it.
It’s what I have been saying all along and the ignorance among today’s evangelicals on this subject is stunning.
To their Credit, Catholics still teach the 10 commandments, ALL 10, because they don’t accept the dual covenant heresy. And it is a heresy. The Catechism has a whole section on the 10 commandments including the Sabbath! And to keep it.
The only difference is they have traditionally taught the papacy had the power and authority to change the weekly holy day from the seventh to the first day.
Dual Covenant heresy came about in part because today’s evangelicals know Sunday keeping isn’t in the Bible. So they bought this heresy......OT is law, NT is grace. No law, meaning no Sabbath....just grace.
Until of course you try to take their car or sleep with their wives....then there is law again.
In the final analysis, one will either side with the papacy and keep Sunday....or with the Seventh day Adventist message and keep the Bible Sabbath. In the end there will be no other option. The Mark of the Beast will concern God’s law. Just as a decree issued in Daniel’s day concerned God’s law. Daniel 6:5
Never tinker with God’s holy things.....and the weekly Sabbath is a holy thing that God made holy. And he made it for man. Genesis 2:1 and 2......and Mark 2:27.
At least the Catholics are not fooled by this dual covenant heresy......Evangelicals have been snookered hook line and sinker.
No law = no sin. The Law defines sin. It is a measurement. The Law condemns but does not save. So the world puts it aside and ignores it. But God sees all and records.
Paul penned Christ became our Sabbath ... Christians ‘rest’ (or sabbath) in Christ every day of the week and two times on Sunday ...
Matthew 5:17 pretty well answers the question,
“Opposed to this, the Catholic Faith teaches that the Old Law — itself good, holy, and of divine origin — was a preparation for the New, and that the New Law superceded and fulfilled the Old.”
That is the position of many Protestants as well. Jesus was the fulfillment of the Law.
Silly Sun god worshiper. Christ only becomes our rest if we are saved. God has designated one day of the week to rest/worship Him and that is the Sabbath. It started at Creation where God rested (He was not tired) as an example of what we are to do. When Jesus walked the earth, He observed the Sabbath. Why aren't you?
"and two times on Sunday?" Is this a new Catholic wives tale. I've never heard it before. Certainly not in Scripture.
So you believe the Law is still valid or did Jesus abolish the Law? Has heaven and earth passed away?
Obviously, you have NO clue who Christ was, is and will be ... HE was there when the ‘days’ were invented...
YOU stupid people are so staunch on the hated Catholics, you are literally clueless as to what Christ taught.
Twice on Sunday, was to jerk your wad, and boy oh boy did it jerk you.
Oh you are a real scholar aren't you? Look up Saturday/Sabbath in Spanish or French or Latin. Pagan Rome used pagan gods to name their days of the week. Don't follow pagan Rome.
Well, one of us doesn't have a clue.
Which is kind of irrelevant when they changed the Ten commandments and renumbered them to still equal ten.
So why are you telling me?
I thought the 'ten commandments' were first penned in the Hebrew language? Might want to search out what that word Sabbath means in the Hebrew and quit pointing fingers to Pagan Rome ... There is nothing more pagan than worshiping a day of the week ... especially a day named after the devil...
Your crew has NO clue who the fake Jesus is, because your crew is alllll wrapped up in worshiping a day of the week.
I don't follow or want to know who this fake Jesus you are referring to. I follow the real one.
because your crew is alllll wrapped up in worshiping a day of the week.
Of course we all know that is a lie. You do know lying is a sin, right? Falsely accusing the brethren and all of that. We worship on the day God designated. We worship on the day Jesus observed while on earth. The same day that will be observed in Heaven throughout eternity. You wouldn't want to miss out on that, would you?
To those who want to look further into this question, but want a non-Catholic-Christian source, may I suggest reading The Gospel of the Kingdom by Philip Mauro.
I'm not criticizing the article that was posted at all (I agree with it), but I recognize that some people who are not Catholic may prefer additional, non-Catholic, sources.
Dispensationalism, and the Scofield Reference Bible, are a modern invention and are heresy to any Christian.
___Which is kind of irrelevant when they changed the Ten commandments and renumbered them to still equal ten___
Until one actually studies the Bible and prophecy and sees this attempt to “change set times and law” was predicted. Daniel 7:25. The only commandment having anything to do with time......is the holy Sabbath time. The literal 24 hour period God set aside and made holy. Kept throughout the entire Bibly by God’s people and Christ himself.
How ironic. The ONLY change of the weekly holy day in scripture was a prophecy showing the great counterfeit would attempt to change it.
Never tamper with God’s holy things.......do it at your own risk. “The Sabbaht was made for man”..Mark 2:26. And it was made in Genesis......Genesis 2:1 and 2.
One can recognize that Dispensationalism or dual-covenant theology is incorrect without being anti-semitic.
