I personally dont see any reason for Christians to evangelize Jews, and I am a Christian. Would anyone dispute the fact that Moses or Abraham or any other biblical patriarch was not "born again"?

I believe observant Jews can be born again just as much as a Christian can, so why embarass myself and denigrate them?

I have found the average Jew has an above average understanding of the Word of God, and an excellent understanding of God.

I have seen people make the nastiest comments in the world trying to evangelize my wife, and because she refuses to convert to Christianity, they come after me and shame me for my refusal to evangelize her and claim her mortal soul will go to hell because of me. Is that correct or proper behavior? I dont personally think so.

I firmly believe that the Jewish people are Gods chosen people, and if it were not for them, us Christians would not be here. On top of that, I believe that a Christian can learn a LOT from any Jewish person if they lay conversion attempts behind them and engage in honest study and discourse.

I dont want to convert Jews. I honestly want to learn from them.

Ok....now let me don my asbestos suit and put on my ultra high sunblock. Fire away, folks.

I agree and I personally don't believe in evangelizing Jews. I love the Jewish people the way they are and I am not prepared to say that God's chosen people will go to Hell. Christians have a debt to Jews, Jesus was Jewish and said salvation is through the Jews. We wouldn't have what we have without them.
I have many Christian friends who are deeply into studying Judaism and I intend to join them, though I will always believe in the diety of Christ. Christians have alot to learn from Jews and Judaism and would be much better off if they did so.
