Although the majority of Eastern and Western churches rejected most elements of 
Old Testament legalism, or Judaizing, there have been many exceptions - not all 
of them recent:

1. The Coptics who continue to practice circumcision
2. The Ebionites, who adhered to both Noachide and Mosaic laws 

In other words, there have always been a minority of Christians who adopted 
some elements of legalism.
