Messianic Apologetics

Addressing the Theological and Spiritual Issues of the Broad Messianic Movement

The modern Messianic movement got started as an outreach of Jewish Believers, to see the Jewish people come to saving faith in Israel’s Messiah. To be sure, there are other things which have taken place since, such as non-Jewish Believers entering in and more tangibly embracing their Jewish Roots. There are theological and spiritual issues, which the original leaders could not have anticipated being discussed. We pray that God raises up the right people to perform the diversity of tasks before us. The original mission of seeing Jewish people come to faith in Israel’s Messiah still has not gone away. And, if you are a part of today’s Messianic movement, you have to ask yourself, “What contribution am I making to Jewish evangelism?”

Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee reviews what “the fullness of the nations” actually is in Romans 11:25. Is it somehow connected to the prophecy of Genesis 48:19? Or is it instead connected to Romans 11:12 immediately preceding?
