1.0 out of 5 stars Messianic Jewish Manifesto: A "Social Darwinist" Deception!, April 25 2010
By 
Marshall Beeber (Fishers, Indiana, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Messianic Jewish Manifesto (Paperback)
In the mid-90's David Stern's revolutionary book , "The Messianic Jewish Manifesto" started turning belief towards strict Torah Observance. I believe that Stern's intent was that of dismantling the "Pauline" teachings of Grace, to revert back to the Law. He and other supportive Messianic Jews resented the teachings of Grace having supremacy over Torah. He therefore intentionally rebelled against New Covenant doctrine believing that Jews would not accept any Gospel except one that was totally Torah observant. In doing this, he and other supportive teachers adopted a dangerously heretical course. Strict Torah observance has now become the standard in much of the Messianic Jewish movement. Stern's book adopts a "Social Darwinist" form of deception by promoting an erroneous historical portrait of Paul to conform to his religious and social agenda. Social Darwinists justify promoting the "big lie" if it serves to promote the continuity of their social cause. It may have been a 'Freudian slip" when Stern used the term "manifesto" in his revolutionary book. Stern's use of Marx missed the Biblical mark!

5.0 out of 5 stars A pligram's perspective, Aug 28 2002
By 
bob morley (Fort Myers, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Messianic Jewish Manifesto (Paperback)
I discovered Messianic Jews within weeks of discovering Jesus. I have straddled both the church and (messianic) synagogue ever since. This book helped clear up much of the history I was missing and seemed to lay out the entire discussion in a great way. I highly recommend it for "Christians" to learn about how we ended up in 2002 with the kind of church culture we have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Discussion of Important Issues., Mar 30 2002
By 
Barry L. Boyer "Barry the Missionary" (Ritzville, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Messianic Jewish Manifesto (Paperback)
I disagree with those parts of this book that endorse a two track system: one for Jews and another for Gentiles. But David Stern is not negative with regard to Gentiles following a Torah life as long as they do so for the "right reasons." This book covers a lot of ground and can be read for great profit by those interested in the Messianic Jewish movement.This book is essential for those who want a broad understanding of the issues. David Stern is a giant among Messianic Jewish teachers.
