I’m a Jew who is not interested in being converted.

With good fortune, someday that may change.

Good for you.

That fact, however, has nothing to do with the obligation of religious believers to pray for you - you're not their religious guide or leader.

Orthodox Jews say prayers against gentiles.

Perhaps both should stop, but if we think our faith is true and good, it is ok, IMHO, to pray that others find it.

I will continue to pray for you and all others, because I care. If I didn't care, I wouldn't.

If you don't believe, where is the harm?

I would think that if you believed that we are following the wrong path, you would include us in your prayers.

God took on a human form, Jesus Christ, who was also a practicing Jew. Tomorrow, we celebrate His Resurrection from the dead. This Jew, Jesus, bridges all Christians to His Jewish heritage, making it our heritage also.

Please pray for me, as I, a person with feet of clay, need all the prayers that I can get!

"I’m a Jew who is not interested in being converted."

Okay, then. But I dare you to follow the shadows of the Old Covenant and not wind up realizing it was all about revealing in the fulness of time....Christ Jesus!

And I will put enmity between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.—Genesis 3:15 NAS
