"W've been robbed!" These words of a Methodist bishop in Brazil, an Anglican church leader in India, and a Pentecostal overseer in Africa express the sentiments of thousands of Christians when they discover through the challenging teaching of Dr. John D. Garr the extent to which they have been deprived of the Hebrew heritage of their Christian faith.
For the past nineteen centuries, millions of believers have been denied their biblical legacy, the riches of the Hebrew foundations of their faith. Christian Judaeophobia, anti-Judaism, and anti-Semitism have conspired to rob them of the treasures of their inheritance.S criptural archaeologists have been digging in the Word of God and have begun to uncover bits and pieces of this lost legacy. Scholars of various denominations have awakened to the realization that our over-Hellenized, over-Latinized Christian faith needs to be restored to its original context. This call to reclaim Christianity's Judaic heritage seems radical and even revolutionary to some; however, it is both scriptural and prophetic, for everything biblical is to be restored at the time of the Messianic age (Acts 3:20, 21).
This volume presents selected essays in which Dr. Garr urges the church to recover its Hebrew heritage, its connection with the Jewish matrix which produced it. These pages call Christians back to the Bible, to the roots of faith that enrich lives and equip believers to achieve greater spiritual maturity through a more comprehensive understanding of Jesus, our Jewish Lord. Restoring Our Lost Legacy is one of the seminal books of our time!
Join the growing numbers of those who are rediscovering and claiming their long-lost spiritual legacy, Christianity's heritage in biblical Judaism!
