Jesus is Still a Jew!

Join author and professor of Bible Sir Anthony Buzzard as he explains very concisely the basics of the Abrahamic Faith practiced by Jesus. Unfortunately today most Christians don’t concern themselves with the things Jesus actually taught and believed! So in response to that horrible trend, Professor Buzzard and others representing the Abrahamic Faith would like to remind today’s Christians and the rest of the world that “Jesus is Still a Heretic…Because he is still A JEW”!

The Human Jesus Documentary by Restoration Fellowship (Anthony Buzzard)

This is a re-post of theological documentary, produced by the Restoration Fellowship, filmed by Mark Dockery, and edited by Paul Millunzi, tries to bring difficult theological understanding about the nature of Jesus of Nazareth down to earth.

The video has clips from world-recognized scholars, as well as some unknown skilled examiners of biblical theology and Christology.

The “man on the street” aspect of Dockery’s documentary keeps the interest of those who view the presentation. Dockery includes significant ecumenical material, with a view to erasing lines of hostility that separate Christians from the Jewish and Islamic communities. While there is a long way to go to accomplish this, the presentation is a necessary first step in accomplishing that goal.

Jehovah Witnesses!

Paul was a follower of the unitarian Jesus

Paul was a follower of the unitarian Jesus. Both Jesus and Paul cited the Shema of Deut. 6:4, 4:35, 39. There was never any doubt about this, until the church fathers tried to define God differently in terms of Greek philosophy [i.e., Nicene-Chalcedonian councils].

Jesus was not a philosopher, and Paul warned against it.

In 1Cor. 8:4-6 Paul reaffirmed the Shema of Deut 6:4 and of Mk 12:29. Paul put alongside the one God, the Messiah Jesus, now in heaven This is exactly what Jesus had done in citing Ps. 110:1 (the NT’s favorite proof-text). The second lord is the Messiah, human lord.

Paul called Jesus the Messiah and our Lord, over 100 times. Paul called God the Father of the one Messiah.

Luke identified Jesus with a birth certificate. He is “the Messiah Lord,” born at Bethlehem.

It is extreme and improbable that Paul altered the Shema in one verse in 1Cor. 8.4-6!

Paul summarizes his theology with this in I TIm. 2:5 “There is one God and one Mediator who is the Man Messiah.”

Jesus said the same thing in John. “Believe in GOD, believe also in me.”

When called “good” by a questioner, Jesus immediately warned him to be careful and to call no one good except the One God.

None of this is complex. Jesus still to this day speaks of God as “my God.”

it was only hostile and blinded, ie misunderstanding Jews (some of them) who accused Jesus of being God, a charge which he refuted, citing the Bible.

Jesus was a unitary monotheistic Jew, and this is perfectly simple and obvious in Mk 12:29.

Jesus defined the Father, as every Jew would, as “the only one who is true God” (John 17:3).

The only way the philosophically-minded Augustine could deal with this unitarian statement was by altering the whole structure of Jesus’ words in John 17:3!

Jesus is stricitly unitarian. Just as Jude 4 defines God as “the only one who is our Master.”

Jesus is our human rabbi.

Christians are pledged to following the teachings of their rabbi and master, Jesus. By his words we will be judged (John 12:44ff. Heb 5:9; I Tim. 6:3; II John 7-9; Acts 17:31).

The word GOD in the NT references the Father 1300 times and the word GOD never means a Trinity in the Bible.

Jesus is the Messiah lord & YHVH’s Messiah

Jesus is the Messiah lord (Luke 2:11) & in Luke 2:26 Jesus is YHVH’s Messiah.

Luke never wants us to confuse the two.

Ps 110:1, which Jesus quoted to settle all issues in Mark 12:35ff., defines the exact relationship of the One God of Israel to Jesus the Messiah, Son of God. The relationship is: GOD for Jesus is a superelevated MAN.

Never, ever, GOD and GOD!

The Shema remains in tact always.

Ps 110:1 is the massively important text which defines YHVH as addressing “my lord” = A’DONI, which is never in all 195 occs. a ref to Deity.

Peter makes our point exactly with the same Ps. 110:1 in Acts 2:34-36.

Paul makes exactly the same point by first affirming the Shema, “there is one God, the Father” (1Cor 8.4-6) & Jesus says “no other God but HE”, Mark 12:29-32. Then Paul puts alongside the One God, the Messiah lord, who is not a 2nd GOD, which would shatter the first & great commandment..

Paul and Jesus give us GOD and exalted Man. Thus, exactly 1Tim 2.5: “One God and one Man Messiah.”

Jesus in his own Aramaic is “our lord” as in “our lord, come” –Maranatha—our lord, can never mean “our YHVH,” which is a linguistic impossibility.

This is not difficult.
