Nearly everyone agrees that even a cursory once-over of Scripture and a basic understanding of historical necessity will demonstrate the Jewish cultural, political, literary and religious backdrop of the events related in the Ketuvim Netzarim (New Testament). However, few realize the implications this has for understanding said events. My own research (largely, but not entirely, dependent on the research of others) has proven to me that an understanding of the first-century Jewish dynamic revolutionizes understanding the events and underlying concepts behind the text. Here, I have included links to sites which are run by people who have similar beliefs, or at least practices somewhat in line with them. I have a large number of links for related sites, but will not put all of them up until I get a chance to sort through them all.

     The United Church of God: An International Association - This is the Church organization I call home. We're a group of believers in haMashiakh who keep the Holy Days and Biblical kosher laws and generally believe that Torah was not abrogated upon His death.

     The Society for the Advancement of Nazarene Judaism - Otherwise known as SANJ. To be honest, this group of Notzerim seems to be about the closest thing to the original Jerusalem Church. They are non-selectively Torah observant, and have organized a Beit Din similar to that evidenced in Acts 15, which has so far rendered judgments on matters of halakha, or law based on interpretation of the Torah. Unlike another group of professed Notzerim on the Internet (you'll find them in my Judaism section), these folks believe that haMashiakh was more than just a nifty Rabbi.

     Avi ben Mordechai's Page - Avi is the host of Torah Talk, an excellent radio program concerning the Hebraic roots of Christianity (and a return to them!). Avi is associated with SANJ and is a "Friend of the Court" concerning the Beit Din.

     Young Adults of The Churches of God - This is sort of a mutual home for young people such as myself in the many various "Church of God" organizations. A useful tool for communicating with others of like minds.

     Vik Kubik's Web Page - A pretty non-institutional source of information for those in the various "Church of God" organizations.
