A Jewish Gospel?

They did gather on the first day of the week. They also gathered every day of the week. Nowhere in the scripture was it given to venerate Sunday. However the Almighty did venerate the Sabbath. Hmmm let's see here the Messiah rebuked the scribes and pharisees for making and following man-made traditions but what does the majority of the "church" do now? Observe pagan holidays and propagate falsehood concerning Sunday being the day of rest and all the other lies that I frankly don't want to take the time to mention. Great discussion though. Keep up the good work!!!!!

What you refer to as "Jewish" refers to the religion of the Jews - which is Judaism - a Talmudic religion based on Rabbis who interpreted Torah to their understanding, which is not Scripturally correct. They hold the Talmud as the ultimate authority over the Tanakh.

Paul stated, that no man should judge when to worship God or where. We are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we worship in Spirit and in Truth. Just because people choose a specific day to do that does not make them disobedient. We have our Sabbath rest in Christ Jesus, so it does not matter which day one chooses to gather with others, if they so choose to do that.

Let me reiterate - the OT is not "Jewish". It is God's story of Christ as pointed out through His chosen nation at that time. The story is not "Jewish or Hebraic". There is no ethnicity in the Word of God - it is cultureless and for every nation, tribe, and tongue. If the Tanakh is Jewish, then we should all avoid reading it, because it has nothing to say to gentiles or those outside of Judaism
