It is Often Said

Comments and Comparisons of Traditional Christian Theology and Hebraic Thought

By Tim Hegg, First published in February, 2006

New 4-Volume Series

The foundational question of how the Torah applies to believers has been so thoroughly answered by long-standing Christian theologies that it is no longer considered a question. In our ‘post-Torah’ era, the Bible is read through the lenses of modern Christian theologies—where the Torah’s value has long since been determined.

This post-Torah perspective is the paradigm by which the words of Yeshua and the Apostles are read, interpreted and applied.

But the modern Torah movement dares to ask the hard questions. And in so doing, we subtly—and not so subtly—suggest that the age-old ‘answers’ are patently insufficient.

In the It is Often Said series, Tim Hegg addresses and answers some of the most common misconstrued theologies and statements of our time.

  • Thorough investigations and answers to common anti-Torah arguments
  • Each chapter includes useful summary and study questions
  • Ideal for small Bible studies
  • Excellent material to help spread a positive attitude about Torah

It is Often Said will reconcile the teachings of Yeshua and Paul in a way that supports the belief that the Bible, and God Himself, is unchanging, consistent and authoritative.
