After all, there are thousands of books and tracks to help get non-Jews atoned . But how many are there that are written with Messianic terminology so as to be palatable to a Jewish reader? I am called, as are all non-Jewish people to bring the Good News of Yeshua to the Jews first . (Not exclusively, just first) .

Be sensitive when approaching a Jew. If you say things like “Jesus Christ died for you so that you could be saved” You may as well first stick a knife in their heart and then tell them how much Jesus loves them. Be aware that the generation that is alive today was either in the concentration camps themselves, or they have heard the horror stories from their parents or grandparents. If you grew up learning that Hitler killed the Jews in the name of Christ, you would think twice about accepting this Christ guy wouldn’t you?

Learn the non-threatening Messianic terminology and you will be more successful in being heard. As you can see from this course, I have used words such as Messiah instead of Christ, and Yeshua instead of Jesus. If you are going to bring a Jew to a worship service, invite them to a Messianic Synagogue if there is one in your area and don’t call it a Jewish Church. It is easier for a Jew to hear that Yeshua died on the tree than on the cross. And Jewish people do not want to become Christians but can more easily be Messianic Jewish believers as this allows them to maintain their Jewish heritage and customs. After all, wasn’t Yeshua Jewish, weren’t all His disciples Jewish, didn’t He celebrate all the feasts? Since the word rabbi means teacher, isn’t it easier for a Jew to hear you tell them that Rabbi Sha’ul (Paul) said so and so, than to say Saint Paul said so and so. I could go on and on in this area but I think you get the idea.

Jews do not want to be converted to Christianity and they don’t have to become Christians to be atoned . Now you could argue that Messianic Jews are Christians since they follow Christ, and grammatically you are correct . But while you are stuck on your grammar, Jews are needlessly dieing unatoned . For a Jew to become a Christian is the ultimate slap in the face to their family . This causes many Jewish believers who announce that they are now Christians to be rejected, even to the point of an actual funeral being held for them . My wife’s parents did not speak to us for years and we still deal with serious family problems with one of our four children, based solely on our accepting Yeshua . I am NOT saying that when a Jewish person is called by the Ruach haKodesh to believe in Yeshua, that he or she will not accept Him and believe in the same things as any “born again” Christian does . We just don’t need, nor do we desire to leave behind our Jewish heritage and customs . When a Christian asks us to “convert”, they are placing a totally unnecessary roadblock in our path to salvation . Why should we leave our Judaism? What could possibly be more Jewish than to accept the Jewish Messiah and live like He did, like Rabbi Sha’ul did, a very Jewish lifestyle? They did not reject their Jewishness, they simply enhanced it, or completed it, by following G-d’s prescribed plan for us .  

Yeshua Himself said:

Matthew 5:17 "Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to fulfill them. 

Ok, it is time for you to take action and get this book into the hands of others you know of who have never been discipled.
