Why The Christians Separated From The Jewish Jerusalem Church => The SPIRIT of God's Law VS the LETTER of The Law; The Start of Controversy Between God's LAW and GRACE.


What happened to the First Century Jewish Church continued on to the succeeding generation of Churches; even to our 21st Century End-Time generation today. We must strive to learn from their Mistakes and Failures, as it is of more force and relevance today, as we live in the Last Days.

THE JERUSALEM COUNCIL (50 A.D.)

The First Blow that started the warlike crack inside the Messianic Jerusalem Church occurred at the Council of Jerusalem held on 50 A.D. Some members from Judea, and particularly the group of Pharisees pushed the following issues:
  1. Should the Gentile Church members be physically circumcised or not? Act 15:1, 5
  2. Should the Gentiles members be subjected to the strict Mosaic Laws or not? Act 15:5
Peter, taking the lead, relates the case of Cornelius. Afterwards Paul and Barnabas declare the wonderful manifestation of God through the power of the Holy Spirit which had taken place among the Gentiles.
  • ... the Nations (Gentiles) should hear the Word of the Gospel, and believe.  (Act 15:7 MKJV)
  • And God, who knows the Hearts, bore them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit even as to us.  (Act 15:8 MKJV)
  • And He put no difference between us and them, PURIFYING THEIR HEARTS BY FAITH (Act 15:9 MKJV)
  • But we believe that through the GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, according to which manner they also believed.  (Act 15:11 MKJV)
THE FINAL VERDICT OF THE CONTROVERSY

After a heated debate, James, the human head of the Jerusalem Church stood up and gave the final verdict (Act 15:13, 19-21).
  • My judgment is that we do not trouble those who have turned to God from among the nations,  (Act 15:19 MKJV)
  • but that we write to them that they should abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.  (Act 15:20 MKJV)
  • For Moses from ages past has those in every city proclaiming him, being read in the synagogues every SABBATH Day.  (Act 15:21 MKJV)
The Doctrines of the original Apostles brought the early Church into conflict with some Jewish religious authorities, particularly to those of the group of the Pharisees who also joined the Jerusalem Church.

THE "LEAVEN OF THE PHARISEES" PLUS THEIR OWN EGOISTIC ATTITUDE AND CARNAL THINKING CORRUPTED THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF THE EARLY CHRISTIANS AND JEWS

The early Church that separated from mainstream Judaism, was composed of both Messianic Jews and Gentiles. The Messianic Jews included some of the Pharisees, and those Jews influenced by the doctrines of the Pharisees. And we must remember the warning that Christ gave His followers to "beware the Leaven of the Pharisees" (Matthew 16:6).

THE TRUE GOSPEL SPIRIT OF THE LAW APPROACH vs THE FALSE GOSPEL LETTER OF THE LAW APPROACH

The main reason of the conflict is the difference of Mindsets between the original Apostles and the Pharisees. The Apostles' teachings are according to the SPIRIT OF GOD'S LAW, while the Pharisees and the Jews are interpreting God's Law (Torah) according to the LETTER of the LAW. 

This difference in Mindsets is caused by the PRESENCE and ABSENCE of God's Messianic Kabbalah Knowledge and Wisdom. The original Apostles have the Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom as they were taught by Christ; so their perception and interpretation of God's Law is SPIRITUAL => The Spiritual Intent or Purpose of God's Law. The lack or ignorance of this Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom always result to the "LETTER of the LAW" level of interpretation of God's Laws.

The resulting conflict of Bible interpretations eventually led to Christian's expulsion from the Jewish synagogues. For more explanation, please go to: The SOURCE AND TRUE MEANING OF THE FALLEN JEWISHNESS AND GENTILESHIP. The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil is the Tree of JEWISHNESS (GOOD) and GENTILESHIP (EVIL).

The Christians that separated from Judaism misinterpreted the Jerusalem Council verdict as "DOING AWAY" with the Mosaic Law, or the LAW OF MOSES. Thus, the controversy between the Torah (Law) vs Grace was born and it persists even today.  

As time goes by, the little Messianic Kabbalah Knowledge that the early Christians have was LOST. Then, they misinterpreted God's Scriptures. The Resurrected CHRIST revealed to PAUL more of Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom from Heaven.

The MISUNDERSTANDING OF APOSTLE PAUL'S KABBALISTIC TEACHINGS CONTINUED ON TODAY!

A misunderstanding of Apostle Paul's message about the Gospel, Mosaic Law's deficiency, the Importance of Faith and Grace, and the Gentile Christian's freedom from physical circumcision contributed strongly to the separation between the Messianic sect and mainstream Judaism. These all became strong factors in the future development of the new non-Jewish Christian religion. Nevertheless, Paul's epistles became the foundation of Christian theology.

Why was the message of Paul misunderstood? It's because Apostle Paul is a Messianic-Kabbalist and his teachings are Kabbalistic. And for anyone who is unlearned and untaught in Messianic Kabbalah, Kabbalistic Truths and Messages are truly hard to understand.
