Judeo Christians and the rest of the World

Galatians 2:9
9
James, Cephas and John, those esteemed as pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.

The gospel in the books of Hebrews, James, 1st, 2nd Peter, Luke, and 1st, 2nd, 3rd John, Acts; all are directed at the temple jews whom these disciples were purposed to witness to about the gospel of Christ Jesus and the good news about the kingdom. There are distinct differences between their ministry, and the ministry of Paul, Timothy, Titus, and Barnabas.

The differences are easiest explained this way:

The path of righteousness
And
The way of those whom walk in their transgression

The path of righteousness, is what Jesus spoke of when he mentioned 'the old wine'. The temple jews were used to practising rituals and ceremonies that the Father was no longer going to recognize. And these believers had to understand that Jesus was now their mediation, and that the spirit of Elijah had already come in the form of John the Baptist. The messainic message of Christ Jesus had come, fulfilling prophesy. So as 'the old wine', these temple jews would have to become 'new wine', and leave behind what faith now replaced, amen. The book of acts speaks of very specific moments that lead to the corruption of Peter's apostlistic mission. The temple remained, and the Pharisees saw to it.

The rest of the world is outside of the temple. The greeks, the uncircumcized, all whom would listen. This was a different ministry, the ministry of Christianity. We did not have perfect knowledge being unaware of the ten commandments, and unaware of the prophets. Christianity was based on the two commandments of Christ: Love the Father with all your heart and all your mind and all your soul, and love one another. By living by these two commandments, those whom deny self and are forgiving of trespass, are showing they believe in the Christ, and would know eternal life, as it is only possible through him.

The two different groups formed into religions, which ultimately turned away from caring for widows and orphans, and instead became sociolitical monsters of bias and judgement. Wars and great atrocities have plagued the name of Jesus since the development of these houses of man. While, the purpose of Christ Jesus was to do the will of the Father; to bring us into personal relationships with the Father. The gospel of the kingdom, is to approach the Father by spiritual means, the kingdom within us, that is a part of the Holy Spirit which acts through us by it.

Peter and Paul, and the rest of the disciples all are loved as we are. None of us are perfect, all are corruptable, and all fall away from faith routinely. It is very much; the love for each other and the Father; that supplies the fuel we need, to continue to have good come through us.

We simply fail when we stop loving. Ours is a humbled existence in grace. Seeing the poverty we were in, before Christ Jesus rescued each of us. It is hard to live amongst those whom embrace and rely on that which we fight to deny ourselves of. Day to day, love is selfless, ungratified, and generally goes unnoticed. But it is in selfless service of others that the light we shine is seen. It is seen by those who seek it, and it is seen by the enemy as well. We suffer every time we choose to love. We suffer everytime we rely on prayer. We suffer everytime we deny ourselves. We are called to suffering, like our Christ suffered. It is the only path the truth set out before us. And their is no other victory than through Christ our Lord.

For a Christian, is there understanding in what was set aside for the ministry of Judeo Christians? Sure. If you correlate the Old Testament with the books of Peter, James, Luke, and John; there is a closure that is very confirming for those of little faith.

I minister to you here, and to others I meet, that when I received my annointing, the ministry of Paul was where the Holy Spirit took me. We are Christians, we rely on grace, we die of our old selves walking a path in our transgressions that only exists because; in Christ Jesus we have no condemnation. We do not know all that we do, and what we are shown in grace to deny, we work at. Our sincerity is in our silent prayer with the Father. We grow closer to Him through carrying the truth in us. What comes through the gospels is insight, like guidance. But, it is the Holy Spirit that works through us that matters. No amount of testimonies nor holy scriptures can save a soul. It is only through faith and deeds that we can show others the light. And all deeds and faith must be founded in love to be considered from the truth and sincere.

Go forth!
