What Is Judaizing and Does It Still Happen Today?

The Book of Ecclesiastes has the refrain that there is nothing new under the sun, meaning that sin and evil are uncreative, and the same evils will appear consistently. After the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 500 people witnessed Him alive around Jerusalem, and many were evangelized at Pentecost. The first people to accept Jesus Christ as their Messiah were Jewish, but began to share the good news of salvation with Gentiles, or people of non-Jewish heritage.
