Well I would like to know if the messianics feel as strongly about the Sat. Sabbath being kept in the way the SDA does.

It seems as though the SDA Church feels the Sat. Sabbath is the foundation for salvation, that one can not be "saved" if they don't keep the sabbath on sat. do mesianics feel the same way?

 

[Talmid HaYarok]

Too many Messianics in my opinion take it too far in trying to uphold the Talmudic halacha rules and traditions.

For instance wearing a Kipa is tradition and not mandated by the Bible. I simply wear a nice hat. 

The Torah also says that we're to but a blue stripe in our Tzitzit, Talmudic interpretation says not to "because we don't know what dye they used traditionally". There is no commandment about using a specific dye, so I believe a Messianic Jew should only wear Tzitzit with the blue stripe.

Oh, and most Messianic congregations that I know of do not receive Proselytes.

Again many congregations follow Glatt Kosher instead of Torah Kosher simply by Jewish tradition and in many cases they don't know better. I personally don't hold it against anyone either way so long as they are sincere in following the Lord. It is faith which is important, not religion because in the faith in Yeshua all are forgiven their trespasses (if they have a repentant heart) and nobody will make it to the Lord trying to follow religion because nobody can follow it perfectly.

Keeping the Sabbath isn't a Salvitic work, but it is a sin not to for Jews.

I can't comment on the SDA as I'm not really familiar with their beliefs.

" faith in Yeshua all are forgiven their trespasses (if they have a repentant heart) "

So do messianics believe one can lose salvation?

 

[chelcb]

Well if it helps Catholics believe that any sin is forgiven but if you sin against the HS by saying to God, I don't want you or your forgivness, I'm fine with out you, and I like my sins, then you will send yourself to hell basically because it is you that will not accecpt salvation, not God with holding it.

Well personally I believe salvation comes to those that accept God period and choose to live according to his will. Of course no one is perfect..so thankfully God made grace. His will in my opinion can be found in the Tanach and the Brit Chadasha.. but if you only have exposure to the Tanach or acknowledge only the Tanch.. I don't see that as one doesn't have salvation.

I do believe that blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is the only sin one cannot come back from..
