1 | Weird to act like a jew when your not? | Gal 5:1 | In the Andes | 53723 | ||
Does anyone else think it's weird that Christians (specifically non Isralites by birth) are trying to live like Jews? Gal 2:3-21 I mean, singing jewish songs, dancing jewish dancing, using jewish words, etc. It's all rather weird to me. Do they think that makes them closer to God? |

2 | Weird to act like a jew when your not? | Gal 5:1 | McGracer | 53724 | ||
In the Andes, I don't think it is weird, I think it is full-blown Galatianism. :) It is natural that man, with the absence of relational reality, will resort back to religious ritual. Of course, we "Christianize" it by sticking Jesus' name in here and there, but the bottom line is that it is a subtle attempt to blend OT worship in with NT worship. What should NT worship look like? What is the best way to have a NT worship service? I think that Rom 12:1 tells us - allow the Person of Jesus Christ to live through your body - this is your worshipful act. But if, for whatever reason we can or won't do that, we go for the externals. :) McGracer |
