Why do chrstians think that the "new testament" is self-validating? Why do they think that quoting it "proves" its validity? Why do they think that if Jews simply read it, they'd automatically believe it and become chrstians (chas vechalilah!)?

If you were to read the "book of mormon," would that make you a mormon?

Because God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him, He will be found when we search for Him with all our heart. Jesus said:

    And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth. (John 14:8-13)

Those who are seeking to know the truth will hear it in God's Divinely-inspired word just as the Jews did before Jesus came. I heard the word and it convicted my heart and led me to faith in the Messiah Jesus. Maybe you will one day realize what you left and be reconciled back to God through the Christ.
