Is JUDAISM the Religion of Moses? - Part 2 - Ernest L Martin - January 1961

Ernest L Martin

How much do you know about the Jewish sects mentioned in your New Testament - the Pharisees, Sadducees, Scribes, and the Herodians and Zealots? Were they all really God's Old Testament Church? HUNDREDS of denominations and splinter sects are represented in so-called Christianity today. It is possible to find any variety that might suit the fancy. A Sect for Every Whim! There are "pentecostal" sects that cater to those of certain emotional tendencies. Others appeal to the educated and the intellectual. There are puritan and fundamentalist denominations and at the other extreme, cold, formal and modernistic ones. On the other hand, we find certain denominations having a strong central government and in others the congregations rule. There are those with pomp and ritual, and those having no religious adornment. And yet, the irony of the whole thing is the fact that all these opposing and irreconcilable denominations claim to be the Church that Christ founded while they preach conflicting and contradictory "gospels." It certainly is obvious that they are not preaching the one Gospel of Christ (I Cor. 1:10-13). - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
