Text of Note

This project creates an apologetic against the teaching of Hebraic Neo-Galatianistic (HNG) groups which promote the idea that the Church is required to keep the Jewish ceremonies and laws as a requirement for sanctification and God's blessing. On a theological level, regarding the Torah as a requirement for sanctification and God's blessing creates theological imbalances in specific areas of doctrines, including sanctification, the doctrine of the Church, and the doctrine of Christ. Common to HNG groups are arguments against the decision of the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15, the denial of any possibility of changes in the Law of Moses, and the impossibility of Jesus introducing new law or altering the Law of Moses. An apologetic was developed from examining HNG arguments in light of Scriptures such as Matthew 5:17; Roman 10:4; and Hebrews 7:12. Literature was reviewed that discussed the possibility of changes in the Law of Moses as well as the solidification of the idea of the immutability of the Law in the thirteen articles of Maimonides. The apologetic was subsequently taught to a small group of pastors and evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the apologetic against the teachings of HNG groups.
