The Huddle With Israel Doctrine: Yet If Any Man Suffer As A Christian

Are you Christians? Ans: Technically, yes. The word "Christian" simply refers to one who is a partaker of Christ and His anointing. And Israelite was the first to partake of his anointing. However, among our Messianic Hebrew Israelite or Hebrew Israelite- that claim to be aware so call "brethren" as well as many in the Islamic community and others, the term has understandably come to represent the perversion of the faith of our fathers by Greco-Romanized usurpers. The same is true for the word "God" and everything else that is Israel's. We contend however, that what the usurpers practice is not TRUE Christianity, and these terms are legitimate - the term 'Christian' having been used by the apostle Kefa (Peter) for example (1 Kefa [Pet.] 4:16) - and therefore must no longer be co-opted by our enemies! We believe that for Hebrew Israelites to reject these terms is a strategic error - an unnecessarily divisive overreaction, given the fact that the majority of the very people we're called to reach still embrace this [legitimate] terminology.
