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.
but can’t quite embrace what Paul wrote and apply it
LOL, right.
Certain Jewish laws and customs particularly circumcision. Okay, so that does not apply to me then. I’ve never advocated for any of the Mosaic ceremonial laws which were nailed to the cross. What other aspersions do you have then?
