📜 Messianic Systematic Theology:
Foundations of Biblical Truth
These materials from the Center for Messianic Learning advocate for a post-supersessionist worldview that emphasizes the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and the enduring authority of the Torah. The author argues that modern Christianity is largely a fourth-century invention of Emperor Constantine, who allegedly merged biblical concepts with pagan Babylonian traditions to create a state religion. Central to this perspective is the belief that Yeshua (Jesus) did not abolish the law but lived it perfectly, and that believing Gentiles are grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel rather than replacing it. The sources provide a systematic critique of classical dispensationalism, asserting that while God reveals Himself progressively through different eras, the method of salvation by faith remains constant and eternal. Furthermore, the text outlines the 613 Mitzvot and various theological doctrines, urging students to return to a literal interpretation of Scripture and a lifestyle defined by biblical holiness. Essential to this framework is the rejection of traditional Church holidays in favor of the biblical feasts established by God in the Hebrew Bible.[1]
This section contains the following articles:
- Theology 101: An Introduction to the Science of Theology
- This brief 8-lesson course provides a brief introduction to all of the major points of Biblical doctrine, which are then expanded upon in the different theology courses. The content of this course is the equivalent to what the student would be exposed to in a one-quarter undergraduate Bible school course in “Survey of Theology” or “Basic Bible Doctrine.”
- A Refutation of Dispensational Theology
- Classic Dispensationalism is a system of interpreting the scriptures, of which Dr. C. I. Scofield was the major proponent, and in which tradition I received nearly all of my formal theological training. There are, I believe, a number of serious problems with this system. This article discusses some of those problems and offers an alternate method of Bible interpretation.
- The 613 Mitzvot
- The 613 mitzvot (commandments) compiled by Maimonides (Rambam) in the Mishneh Torah.
- Rambam’s Thirteen Principles
- The great codifier of Torah law and Jewish philosophy, Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon (“Maimonides” also known as “The Rambam”), compiled what he refers to as the Shloshah Asar Ikkarim, the “Thirteen Fundamental Principles” of the Jewish faith, as derived from the Torah. Maimonides refers to these thirteen principles of faith as “the fundamental truths of our religion and its very foundations.”
- Messianic Thirteen Principles
- Maimonides’ “Thirteen Fundamental Principles” of Jewish Faith Modified for Messianic Believers
- Errors of Christianity and Judaism
- A side-by-side comparison of some of the errors committed by Judaism and Christianity, by which they have both departed from the clear teaching of Scripture
- Doctrinal Statements
- Sample doctrinal statements from a number of organizations are provided as a guide for the reader to develop his/her own statement of faith.
- Basics of Messianic Judaism
- A short list of the foundational distinctives of Messianic Judaism
