I am as much a Christian as anyone on this site, but let me tell you all something.

If an (ethnic) Jew were to become a Christian, a soul has come to Christ and salvation, and praise G-d for that, but...it is no more than if a Salvadoran or a Thai had come to Christ.

If an ethnic Jew returns to HIS OWN FAITH, he is doing that which a non-Jew cannot do, and is taking a position in the shock-troops of G-d in the end times.

That said, a person without the miraculous help of G-d, cannot "return" to that which he never had in the first place, so when I myself have met a couple of Jews that didn't know Bar Mitzvah from bar association or Mars bar, I felt I should just invite them to services and to join US.

My position would have been very different if they had been fleeing from that which they KNEW, in that case like the Prodigal Son, the answer would have been to reverse their steps, as Jesus said, and go back to their onetime status as observant Jews...

I have witnessed to several Jewish friends who are now saved believers in the final lamb. They were Jews in every sense of the word, but now they know and love Christ. It seems that Jews hunger for the love and acceptance found in the Christian community, as well as the sense of completion. A parody would be that they were finally allowed to read the rest of the Bible. A saved Jew is a very happy Jew. We all attend a Baptist church and although at the begining, everyone wanted to shake the hand of a saved Jewish person, no its no big deal, and there are more joining the church all the time.

I wonder if Mr Micheal Savage is now a Christian of Jewish ancestry?
