talks about how the Jews cared for the law so much that they rejected the Gentiles. They did not feel as though they were worthy (which ultimately none of us are) enough to be redeemed by God and that they could not be justified. In Romans 3:28-30 Paul says‚ “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes‚ of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one God‚ which shall justify the circumcision by faith

However‚ as Paul alludes to in Romans 3:30‚ Israel’s own basic creed is “Hear‚ O Israel: The Lord our God‚ the Lord is one‚” so God cannot be limited to Jews alone‚ God must also be available to the Gentiles. In order to emancipate justification from the restrictions of the law of works‚ Paul

His reference to “gnosis” is in an orthodox sense and is not to be confused with the heresy of Gnosticism. His polemics are mainly directed against the Judaizing Christians‚ such as the Ebionites and the Nazarenes. The separation of the Gentile Christians from observant Jews is clearly insisted upon. The covenant promises belong only to the Christians (Barnabas 4:6-8)‚ and circumcision‚ and the entire Jewish sacrificial and ceremonial system are of no effect in salvation. According to the

Because these traditional conceptions of God make it difficult to describe him‚ religious language has the potential to be meaningless. Theories of religious language either attempt to demonstrate that such language is meaningless‚ or attempt to show how religious language

great commission has to be taken into account with the rest of Matthew’s gospel where we see the “road” of mission to the gentiles is open. The Mission of Jesus was to breakdown boundaries and to include all‚ even those who were seen as enemies. God invites all and it is those who respond that are accepted. Early Christian mission was focused only on the Jews. Mission to the gentiles came as a spin-off mission. Early Christian mission involved the person of Jesus and it was political and revolutionary
