Judaizer, eh? Probably a pejorative label meaning different things to different people. The Apostle Paul was probably the ultimate judaizer in some respects. He wrote extensively on the relationship between works and faith. You are well read and seem smart but can’t quite embrace what Paul wrote and apply it. It seems so foreign to the world and it’s religions. If the Holy Spirit and Paul’s writings don’t enlighten you, I don’t stand a chance.
Actually has a definition from the Bible, but don't know if that holds weight for you.
Jewish Christians The Judaizers were a group of Jewish Christians in the early church who taught that Gentile converts to Christianity needed to adhere to certain Jewish laws and customs, particularly circumcision. The issue arose prominently in the early church as recorded in Acts 15 and Galatians 2.

LOL, right.
