Messianic Apologetics

Addressing the Theological and Spiritual Issues of the Broad Messianic Movement

J.K. McKee

Mark and Margaret Huey, and John McKee, each talk about what it means for today’s Messianic movement to see itself as recapturing the First Century faith experience in the Twenty-First Century. (1) Mixed assemblies of Jewish and non-Jewish Believers; (2) a polytheistic and immoral Roman Empire; (3) small home fellowships of Believers.

In the commentary Galatians for the Practical Messianic, Messianic Apologetics editor J.K. McKee takes a direct look at the issues of Paul’s letter, as he rebuked the Galatians for errors which had crept into their midst. Engaging with contemporary scholarship on Galatians, critical questions regarding common conclusions of Paul’s words are asked. Were Paul and Yeshua truly at odds when it came to the Torah? Were the Jerusalem leaders and Paul at constant odds with one another? How did Paul’s Pharisaical background and views affect the composition of this letter? What were the spiritual dynamics present in Galatia? What did the term “works of law” really mean? These are only a few of the questions considered.
