But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

60 Steps to the Christian Walk
2 Sep 2010

Dear brethren, come walk with me through God’s word. When we walk we are moving and we are moving in a certain direction. We are walking with purpose, with motive. There is a reason why we are walking a certain way. We will be coming from somewhere and we will be going somewhere. The question is, ‘How are you walking, which way are you living?’ Whe ...

How we critique others
30 Aug 2010

I would like to commend Dr Peppler for his article on how to critique. "Ad hominem" we call them in the academic arena: these arguments that work to undermine, belittle or demonize an opponent, instead of arguing on a level of content. Often this sets in when people are running out of sensible arguments or feel threatend by some new idea or development. And I guess this may well be the case in ...

Do You Have "Bipolar Disorder" or "Bipolar In Order"?
19 Aug 2010

I suffer from what they call “Bipolar Disorder” and I can speak to you about the dreadful experiences one has had to endure – but I’m not going to do that, because we all have our difficulties, some from other parts of the body other than the brain.  However, when we add it all up, it all amounts to the same figure.

State of the Nations
11 Aug 2010

There is a groundswell of people who are beginning to celebrate the Feasts of the Lord as well as obey His commandments as best as they are able. This is not being done for the sake of redemption, but rather out of a sense of obedience to scripture and as a demonstration of their love for our God: Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.   Much has been said of these people and ...

Return of the Judaizers - Debate Part 5
26 Jul 2010

Beste redakteur,

Dit is met groot hartseer  dat ek julle artikel 'Return of the Judaizers' gelees het. Ek is een van die mense waarna die artikel verwys en al wat ek met my hele hart wil doen is om in Jesus se voetspore te volg en presies te doen wat ek in die Bybel lees Hy gedoen het. As Hy die Shabbat op die sewende dag gehou het, is dit sonde as ek dit ook doen? As Hy die F ...

Return of the Judaizers - Debate Part 4
26 Jul 2010

I am really disappointed in your magazine for portraying Christians that are looking into the Hebrew roots of our faith as people in bondage. Jesus was a Hebrew. He kept the commandments and the feasts. So do we have to obey Church Fathers and not our Messiah?

Return of the Judaizers - Debate Part 3
23 Jul 2010

My intension is not to enter into religious debate as each person is entitled to his or her opinion but I do find it disturbing that such a weak and misleading article can be published without investigation or sufficient research into the accuracy of one’s statement. The article is written in an opinionated and narrow minded format that will mislead the Christian that is not well read in ...

What is a Judaizer?
Biblical definition – One who compels  non-jews to undergo a ritual conversion in order to merit salvation, whereby they are reckoned as Jewish proselytes.
Conventional definition – One who compels Christians to adopt practices such as observance of the Sabbath and the biblical festivals among other things.

Return of the Judaizers - Debate Part 1
23 Jul 2010

Thought I would respond to your article in the JOY! Mag. Before I write anything else, I want to let you know that I am not one of these freaky Christians who follow anything but I do have a BSc so I enjoy scientific and logical reasoning. I have a 4 year diploma in ministry and am currently studying for a bachelor of divinity. When I read the brown characteristics you listed and attributed to ...
