The words Judeo-Christian are most often used to describe the biblically based religious, moral, and ethical heritage of certain western societies.
But there is a more complete definition of Judeo-Christianity:
"a belief system and lifestyle founded upon the principle of Sola Scriptura (by scripture/Bible alone). The Bible, in its entirety, is a complete and divinely inspired compilation of books written for revelation, instruction, and reproof.
God has a plan that has been consistent through history. This consistency is reflected in scriptures through Godโs laws/teaching, the writings, the prophets, the gospels and epistles penned by faithful scribes. God's plan is revealed through explicit command and through stories about God's people. The personal and national examples of the faithful โ Abel to Christ and his apostles โ inform our understanding of God's purpose and His work in the world.
The Bible is a comprehensive life-map to both a good physical life and the only path to eternal life through Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Rock of our salvation, the Word, the Lamb of God.
Judeo-Christianity emerged into the English-speaking world during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of Great Britain in the late 1500s, as part of the non-conformist Reformation movement. This specific reformation realized that both the Old and New Covenant Scriptures were authoritative and superseded any decisions by councils of men (Matthew 4:4; John 17:17; Matthew 15:3-9).
However, this current revival of the "faith once delivered to the saints" in this century traces its beginning to what is sometimes called "primitive Christianity" โ the original โChurchโ that Christ founded and the apostles who continued in that faith.
So this is a channel to explore the truth of the Judeo Christian scriptures, from the perspective of the faith embraced by the early Christians.

People often wonder why we call ourselves, Judeo Christian. Well, we are not "traditional Christians" Catholics or evangelicals or charismatic Christians, nor are we Messianic Jews. We are people who were once part of mainstream Christianity, who came to accept the principle of Sola Scriptura, who reject the idea of "dispensationalism" as being without basis in scripture, and view the Hebrew and Greek scriptures as a unified whole. The scriptures alone offer us a hope of salvation through an everlasting covenant relationship with God the Father through the sacrifice of our Saviour. But this everlasting covenant does not nullify the national covenant that the Lord God of Israel made with his people. So if you are someone who wants to "label" ideas and people, then Judeo Christian is perhaps fitting, as it speaks to our love of God's word in its entirety.

Mr. Williams is a Christian. He went to school at Stanford University and received a BA in Classics with Honors in Humanities, thereafter working at the Huntington Library and Art Gallery in San Marino, California. He received his MBA from the University of Southern California Graduate School of Management and Business (now identified as the USC Marshall School of Business), and received his JD from the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law, which triggered his interest in logical analysis and economics. He is married to noted real estate investor Kathryn Smith Williams, currently disabled with Huntington's disease and dementia, and has a daughter, Jo, who absorbs all the attention he can give. Occasionally known as the Earl of Hathaby, and more correctly as Lord Williams or Count Williams, he accepts democratic equality with pleasure. He lived in Las Vegas, Nevada, and enjoyed the neoVictorian aspects of the city before his wife, Kathryn, became ill with Huntington's disease, causing a quick relocation to Los Angeles, a city with better medical care. He was temporarily living in a succession of leased premises, taking his daughter to school in nearby Hancock Park, and hoping to get adequate care for his wife in place despite the general ignorance of the disease. He is now in the greater Phoenix area, happily enjoying a safer city, while his daughter pursues her passion in college.
