Heterodoxy within Second-Temple Judaism and Sectarian Diversity within the Early Church: A Correlative Study is abook by Peter J. Russell.
Abstract
Diversity in early Christian groups was not caused by a rift that had occurred between the leading protagonists Peter, Paul and James. It was in fact because the church founders, being Jewish, had based their church upon the contemporary synagogue tradition of Palestine and the Diaspora. Each congregation was independently governed and had equal rights along with all the others as long as they followed the law and acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah.
