Acts 15 for the Practical Messianic – paperback
$18.99
Too many of today’s Messianic people refer to Acts 15, without a great deal of consideration for the context of the events as they took place in the First Century C.E. We often assume things we should not assume, and we overlook things we should not be overlooking. This study examines the scene of Acts 15 in detail, is engaged with current Acts scholarship, and tries to properly evaluate the intentions of the Jerusalem Council.
Around two decades after the ascension of Yeshua into Heaven, the message of salvation began being spread, in concentration, to the Mediterranean world outside the Land of Israel. Many from the nations eagerly embraced it. Was this just a biproduct of the message going to the Jewish people in the Diaspora, or was it the Father’s Divine plan? What was to take place with the new, non-Jewish Believers? Did they have to be circumcised and become Jewish proselytes, in order to truly be reckoned as “saved”? Or were all of the Believers, regardless of their ethnicity, to come together in a community rooted in the completed work of God’s Son? The Jerusalem Council of Acts 15 assembled to consider these issues, and it fairly ruled on what was to be done.

In the unique commentary Acts 15 for Practical Messianic, Messianic Apologetics editor J.K. McKee reviews some of the challenges many of today’s Messianic people have, when examining the intentions of the Jerusalem Council. Many important factors regarding why the Jerusalem Council actually met, and how the salvation of the nations was placed within the context of Israel’s restoration in Tanach (OT) prophecy, are weighed into the discussion. What do we need to learn from Acts 15? What have we assumed, which needs to be either adjusted or dismissed? What important lessons have we avoided for far too long?
(Each paperback title written by Outreach Israel Ministries/Messianic Apologetics is produced print on demand from CreateSpace/Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.)
