Why can't you just love Jews without the conversion thing? That is the universal problem between us.
Great question. I have Jewish friends that asked me the same thing, so bear with me it may seem sappy.
Because I don't want to see anyone lost.
Unfortunately, Jews that don't accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are going to hell. The Cross changed everything. Abraham's Bosom has been emptied. The only way to be deemed righteous is by believing The Gospel, that Jesus paid the price for you with His death, that He was buried, and that the Father raised Him on the third day.
I have told my Jewish friends the same and they told me that they didn't want to discuss it. I've told them any time they do I will come running.
Let me ask you, why does it make Jews so uncomfortable to have someone witness to them?
What is it FRiend, that you fail to understand in the name 'Evangelical'? :P
Don't take it personally - We evangelize everyone. It's what we DO.
