David Lee Williams WARNING: WARNING: WARNING: The HRM Or Hebrew Roots Movement: Please do not fall for this garbage.... As a rule, this spreading wave of false doctrine is not being addressed by the church. This is due to several reasons: • There is a fear of appearing anti-Semitic • The depth of the movements doctrinal heresies is not generally known • There is within the church in general a reluctance to address false doctrine The movement usually hides their beliefs and presents itself as simply seeking to educate Christians concerning their Jewish heritage. As they become acclimated to the Jewish orientation the more aberrant doctrines are slowly introduced. Some of the warning signs • All Christians must adhere to a kosher diet • The Sabbath can only be observed on Saturdays • The Jewish festivals and holidays must still be observed today The root of their symptomatic heresies is hermeneutic (having to do with the methodology used to interpret scripture) in nature. The Protestant Reformers used a grammatical-literal hermeneutic when interpreting scripture. In other words, it means what it says unless there is a significant reason to believe otherwise. This movement uses a grammatical-historical hermeneutic with a twist. Their underlying assumptions when approaching any scripture are: Whatever God has ever commanded of those who seek Him (i.e., the Jews, their ancestors, their descendents, and Christians) is still in effect today (including the Levitical law) Gentile followers of Christ were grafted into the Jews which they interpret to mean that Gentiles must assume Jewish customs if they really want to mature and please God
