Why do "Torah-observant Messianic Jews" light Shabbos candles?

I live in a town with three synagogues (none of which I attend) and a "Messianic" congregation, and on my way out of the Chabad house (where I was babysitting the rabbi's kids) a Messianic person stopped and told me that following the Talmud (which, being secular, I have never even seen) was false and the truth was in Jesus and the Torah. I asked him if his congregation lights Shabbos candles. He said yes. I asked him why he followed a Talmudic law if the Talmud is false. He changed the subject. So I am wondering if there are any here who know the answer.
