The mix and match Jewish Christians belonged to the party of the Pharisees, and they are the one’s who stood up and said “the Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the Law of Moses.” 20 years after the resurrection…which is when all of this was taking place…there were a buncha Pharisees who’d become Christians. But they were still so bound to the Mosaic Law that they were trying to integrate it with the Gospel; ‘they’ were the mix and match group of Jewish Christians.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
