Jewish Apologetics
A Reply to Billy Crone’s Defamation Against Christians Who Love Jews and Affirm a Future Israel
“For we are not like many, peddling the word of God, but as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God.” (2 Cor 2:17) Notice the last statement in the verse above: “we speak in Christ in the sight of God.” Evidently, this statement does not register with […]

Video: Reggie Kelly on Premillennialism, Nature and Purpose of the Millennium, and Prophecies Concerning the City of Jerusalem
I would take issue with one thing he said at the very end of this video. As many posttribulationists think, he unfortunately fails to recognize the biblical distinction between the Antichrist’s great tribulation and the day of the Lord’s wrath. Other than that I appreciate everything else he said.
Jesus, the Kingdom and the Promised Land, a Response to N.T. Wright’s Supersessionism on Israel
In ancient Judaism the kingdom of David/Israel was seen as the material expression of YHWH’s kingdom on earth. What’s more, because of this, both idyllic and restorative conceptions can easily coexist. I assert, therefore, that a more robust understanding of ancient Judaism’s, and likewise early Christianity’s, conception of the kingdom of God should take into […]

Maybe the Bible is Wrong and the Koran Is Right After All?
It is a fundamental tenet of the Koran that both Israel and the Church failed. Moses was a prophet. Jesus was a prophet. But Muhammad was the seal of the prophets, the messenger of the final revelation. The Jews are not the people of God—they failed! The Christians are not the people of God—they failed! […]
An Easy Refutation of Replacement Theology’s Proof-Text Galatians 3:28
There has never been a greater advocate of the universal composition of the Christian faith than Paul, who emphatically asserted that in Christ “there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male not female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal. 3:28). This means that when […]

The Feasts of the Lord by Marvin Rosenthal “This revealing book will give you a fresh and in-depth understanding of the richness of Israel’s seven God-ordained festivals! The feasts were a way of life for God’s Chosen People, the means by which they displayed and expressed their dependence on and gratitude toward Him. But did […]

Today is Rosh Hashanah (“the Feast of Trumpets”), the first day of the new year, 5775 in the Jewish calender. I am attending Judaism’s two high holiday services here in North Jersey (Rosh Hashanah today and Yom Kippur 10 days later). I have been studying different aspects of these Jewish holidays and discovered an interesting […]
