I am a Gentile Christian and I love hearing the life stories of Jewish people coming to know Jesus. I have a close Jewish friend who came to believe in Jesus by reading straight through the OT and NT.
Great interview, I have been sharing since becoming a believer, with a man who is Jewish. I have known him most of my life and consider him to be family. He is 95 now and I am nearly 70. He and I have gotten to share over the years but when I got spend time with him recently he asked me again about my conversion and how I had come to be a believer in Jesus. Please pray with me for him who will soon stand before Jesus, that they will meet as those who already know each other. Shalom
Give him Isiah 9:6, Isaiah 44:6 Isaiah 52:13-16 and all of Isaiah 53. Give him I think it’s Nehemiah where he tells how long until the Christ comes. Smart men including I think it was Albert Einstein and more who figured the dates and that April 6, 32 AD was Palm Sunday. Also Daniel chapter 9. And I can’t remember exactly where it says the savior will come riding on a colt the foal of a donkey which Jesus did that day. There’s the passage in the Old Testament telling that. That he comes having salvation. A simple google search will find it. This man is asking. Lead him to the answers
I loved the discussion about answering questions with questions. Beautiful. Yes, we must probe the heart of the question and use wisdom and prayer while answering. ❤
As someone who is trying to find their way back to the Christian Faith and to Jesus, I thank you so much for this channel and these interviews. It adds SO much context, history, understanding and explanation. Incredible content and obvious Love for Jesus. Beautiful. God Bless.
As a gentile who loves the Jewish people, in the past I have hosted Israelis. Some I could share with, some of them were not interested. Had some interesting conversations. Getting Israelis to read Isaiah 53 was really cool, and would find that was when we could use the questions and answers. And yes as a Christian am grafted in to the Olive tree of Israel.
@robertstephenson6806 Isaiah 9:6. A child is born, a son given, and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, and Prince of peace. (The Jews understood in those days that a son given means that som would be sacrificed) John 8:58-57I tell you the truth, Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” At this they picked up stones to stone him. But Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds ( 10:24 He just claimed to be the I Am, which was not lost on his audience) Isaiah 44:6-7. This is what the LORD says-Israel’s King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty, I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God. Revelation 22:12. Behold I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done I am Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Isaiah 44 10“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me. 11I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior. 12I have revealed and saved and proclaimed- I, and not some foreign god among you. You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God. 13Yes, and from ancient days I am he. No one can deliver out of my hand. When I act, who can reverse it?” So it seems to me according to the scriptures, that God came down in body form (Immanuel means God with us) and as God did the children of Israel throughout history, and as Abraham told Isaac when he asked where the sacrifice was and Abraham answered him , God will provide my son.” And again He did provide. We err when we think this is about us. It’s about God and how Good God alone is. Blessings
This is fun to discover Mr. Morgan and Mr. Newman : we Nigerians do the same thing - we answer a question with another question. 😀 Good to know that Nigerians and Jews have some things in common.
I like it when Jeff said he was in the gym and the guy that was so happy said to him ‘I’m not trying to bring you out of your Jewishness. I’m joining your fold and worshipping the same God you do’. That sentence really helped me in case I ever get the chance to speak to Jewish people.
PRAISE GOD. ALMIGHTY , GREAT. INTERVIEW , WE. ARE. SO. BLESSED TO. BE. CHOOSE. ON. TO. SALVATION , BY. ALMIGHTY GOD . YES. THE. GEOLOGY OF JESUS 🙏🙏🙏. THE. GOSPEL OF. MATTHEW . ,
What I love is that as the gym pastor said, as a gentile believer, I don’t want to pull a Jewish person away from the Jewish God, I want to share that I believe in Him too, but with the knowledge that the Jewish Messiah came and was with Jews first, as God’s Chosen people. I’m the adopted one. God be praised for men like Jeff and Randy.
Jeff, I like the way you interview. You ask good questions, encourage the conversation, don’t interrupt and most of all that you don’t argue with your guests. Good job! I am a Christian whose parents came out of war torn Poland.
I'm a Christ follower. I don't want to sell anyone on religion. I want people to have Jesus! He's the BEST thing in my life and nothing in this world compares to Him! I love Jews and just desire them to know my Jesus, who is Jewish too! I would say too that when we're telling someone about Jesus/Yeshua, we can be led by the Father as Jesus was. He said He never said anything but what the Father said to Him (Jesus), so it takes the pressure off when we can let the Father speak through us and say what that person needs to hear.
We're not all Jewish! As a Gentile Christian I find the testimonies of Jewish believers totally inspiring and am enriched by their perspective on Jesus/Yeshua, God bless you all!
I believe the exact reason Jews and Christian’s must stand side by side is because we are grafted into one family under Yeshua!!! Both Christian’s and Jews need to educate and encourage one another in studying The Bible together and promote the symbiotic relationship which Yeshua fulfills.
It is amazing the wisdom of God how He made the translators of the New Testament to put as the first book the Book of Matthew which is not the first book written in the NT but which astonished the Jews who open a NT and read and see the Jewish genealogy of Jesus! We will never cease to be in awe of The Holy God for eternity! If this is not an amazing God then I don't know who is! Thank you for the work you are doing. It thrilled my heart to see that our prayers as Gentiles for the salvation of Jewish people are answered more and more! And so we shall all together fellowship for eternity in heaven!
I so appreicate this interview, I've shared it on FB and pray that ''someone'' who needs to hear this will listen to this video, I love the Jewish people and pray daily that many will come to Jesus , and also ask that God will bring Jews on my path to share 'The Great News'!! God bless you both, and again thank you! ❤🤍💙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love Randy Newman's excitement over the parallels between the Old & New Testament. I wish he'd author a book on this topic, explaining his cognitive journey in this discovery. As a traditional Catholic (Latin Rite with old fashioned 'unliberated' - as in not hateful & not a woman dressed as a man - feminine values), I'd love to learn more about how the 2 sides mesh, as Mr. Newman describes.
Randy your comments in this podcast are really helpful to this gentile. I believe the "time of the gentiles" is over and the Jewish believers are going to be the spearhead of evangelism in the near future. Thanks so much.
I'm not sure what the "time of the Gentiles" means. The Messiah has come, his life and work are the fulcrum of all human history, the Church (almost exclusively Jewish) is born, and the Abrahamic Covenant (that all nations would be blessed) is expanding across the world, saving both Jew and Gentile.
I remember my dad explaining to me when I was a child, that the difference between Judaism and Christianity, was that basically, they were the same religion, that the Jews had the Old Testament, Christians had the Old and the New Testament as their holy book, and that Jews were still waiting for their Messiah, whereas Christians had believed that he had already come. There were Jewish students at my Christian elementary school, as well as Buddhists, Hindus, and I think I remember seeing at least one Muslim or Sikh kid. I always felt very akin to Judaism in particular, and had a lot of respect for the culture and traditions. I was sad that there was some bad blood there from some old wounds historically. But our school taught tolerance and we all got along. There really was nothing to disagree about at that age, so it never really came up. We were just taught to respect each other, and if you were of a different religion and didn’t want to say the prayers or say Amen, you could bow your head in respect and remain there quietly. We had chapel every Wednesday that all staff and students were required to attend, and we did. It’s interesting to understand and look at the similarities of a lot of Abrahamic traditions from around that time, Judaism, Christianity, even Old Catholic vs. Roman Catholic, which came much later. Anyway, I enjoy learning about the differences. I do think it’s a very personal relationship, and so I feel like it takes an in someone feeling the call of God on their life, to speak with authority about it. Which, I believe that you gentlemen have - and it’s true, it’s all of God’s doing. It’s good to examine why we choose to believe the things that we do. Thank you for sharing your work.
This interview was fascinating!! Thank you so much for sharing. Witnessing to a Jewish person is very intimidating and I hope if I’m ever met with the opportunity, God will give me the right words to say. God loves His chosen people so much and it brings me so much joy when they find Christ and experience the love and companionship with Jesus and our Heavenly Father that they were missing before.
Love listening to you. God made Jew and Gentile into One new man in the new birth. Jesus speaks with the authority of God. I am forever grateful for the Bible.
So glad there's this channel. I had dinner with some of my Christian friends where they shared with me that Jews don't need to go through Jesus to be saved because Jews have a special covering. I was shocked that they had learned that at church.
Just remember: 10 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 13 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” Matthew chapter 9
Kathleen, as a 67 year old gentile who was raised in the church, and who has been a follower of Jesus since my 13th year, I respectfully say that anyone who says that there are other ways to fellowship with Yahweh, they are in grave error. Jesus stated that He is THE way. Paul didn’t proclaim any such Gospel while on his journeys. As a gentile, I know that I’m of the wild grapes who were graciously engrafted into the Vine and to say that Jews do not need Jesus would be the worst thing I could say to my Savior’s people
Hi Kathleen ~ I wish you a happy Hanukkah! I hope others have helped you with this question! But, if they haven’t, know that the “covering” referred to - is PRIOR to the coming of Jesus Christ - followed by his death and resurrection. I also pray that some of the community here, or others from One For Israel and our Jewish brothers and sisters who are Jewish Christians will help answer your questions! Obviously, you are here and this is a great channel to reveal the beauty of the Jewish Messiah and the wonderful Jewish people! I truly hope you reach out to some of us, while you read scripture. Please know I say this out of the deepest respect and LOVE for you and God’s Blessed Chosen People!!🥰 Love and Blessings✝🇨🇦✝🇮🇱✝
I confess that I clicked on this interview thinking that this was Randy Newman, the famous, wonderful songwriter. I kept waiting for you to ask him about his early life and how that led him to Jesus. After quite a while I recognized my mistake. Both Randy's are warm, smart and funny and it was a good interview.. Now if you could get the other one on I'd stay till the end of the interview...
THANKS SO MUCH for all this valuable information. It is very encouraging. As a non-Jewish Believer, I would say that much of the Bible has been misunderstood by many Christians (many don’t read it either!), even to the point that many think that the Old Testament Law is now “done away with” along with its “curse” and that Yeshua/Jesus was introducing a whole new program that contradicted the Old Testament ways! The Lord has led me to seek the truth, and after years of Bible expository teaching by Jewish teachers, who have the Jewish perspective and understanding, I am happy to say that I have connected most of the dots. I praise Our Father that I am privileged to live in these times. Also that He has given me a love for the Jews.
Kathy James, I'm not sure where you are getting your information about Christian believers, but the sermon at every Catholic Mass is read directly from the Bible. It is also printed in the missal. Even if the person didn't read the Bible themself, the Old and New Testament is taught in Catholic schools. I don't know anything about the "curse" you are talking about, but I've heard other Christians talking about Catholics not readying the Bible before I read your comment. You didn't say Catholics, but it is hurtful to hear someone talking about any Christian not reading the Bible. Where is that coming from? I think we should not say anything that divides us, Jew or Christian. How do you know what many Christians do? There is no way, and I'll only speak for Catholics, that they don't understand the old and new testaments.
Hi, thanks for replying, my point was to draw others to new understanding and fulfillment through the Hebrew perspective. I don’t know enough about Catholics to have an informed opinion (but know enough not to judge God’s other servants). In answer to your response, I am drawing from my own experience (struggling to want to read the Word of God, struggling in my own walk of obedience, etc.) and hearing sermons with reports about this issue being quite common. I also know that some Christians have believed that the Old Testament is no longer applicable, to the point that Bibles were printed with only the New Testament, (plus the Psalms and Proverbs).When some friends were seeking truth and reading the Old Testament, their church members were praying for them, that they be saved from the “curse” of the Law. Galatians 3:13 uses this wording, but it explains we are released from the Law’s condemnation by Jesus’ atoning sacrifice. However it is not understood by some that Jesus told us to keep His Commandments. In fact, some believe that He rebelled against the Commandments with all new teachings. I know people who attend church, but feel no guilt living with people without marrying, so I assume they believe the Commandments no longer apply. I now understand that the New Testament is solidly based on the Old Testament, and I am enjoying reading the Word, and I now realize how critical a lifeline it is in these, the last of the last days. Blessings!
My brother Jeff in Christ, I found your channel yesterday and watching wonderful testimonials for the Lord Jesus. It's so heartening and inspiring how the Lord is encountering His chosen from Jews. Thank you so much and a big God bless for your great work that you are reaching the Jews and the rest of the world through your channel. God bless your family and ministry.🙏🙏
For me it's a new Jerusalem, I love God... My faith is in His Word, His promises... I pray Christian's and Jews both read "Why Israel? , by Derek Prince and open your heart to God's promises so we all live in His fulfillment to His glory. ❤
As a Gentile Christian (who has little to no knowledge the past between us)… hearing only your testimonies and WOW 🤩 the LORD’s incredibly personal saving work in you BOTH… just cheering bc I know Paul’s heart for his own people … and I get to see this in double… all this was joy to hear how Jesus is recognizable to even Jewish young men who have not been very familiar with (I call it the Old Testament… I know that’s not it’s name, I am sorry I’m not confident to write the other name bc it’s still in English) Needless to say, immediately I bought his book bc I’m confident it is correct in heart for bringing people out of darkness. Sitting here just today, going through tracts nothing was feeling right, but ALL of this I needed to hear… I’m grieved that there is a past between Gentiles and the Jewish people. I’m now a subscriber, this has blessed me, thank you!
🍓 A pastor sharing his testimony during his sermon where I attended. He said every time when he flies, he picks the middle seat in order to preach the Gospel to his neighbors. In many occasions, he receives good responses, but one time, he asked a woman sitting next to him if she knew who Jesus was, the woman raised her voices and told this pastor not to talk this sh**. I think, most likely, that woman might be a Jewish person who was deeply influenced by her environment. I am a gentile. If I were given an opportunity to talk to a Jew, I think I would preach the Gospel, but would start carefully.
Loving these interviews! They are right on point saying the Bible has so many layers, and the more you read the more is exposed. It’s the most exciting book ever❤
Hi Great conversation, loved how you came to faith! Don’t forget that JEALOUSY is the biggest lynchpin! Just talking to people isn’t enough. They have to be stirred by what they perceive you to have that they haven’t! Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over the world government from Jerusalem.
God chose Israelites to be His first people to love. God shows us that there were many Jews who were disobedient. But there was a remnant of the chosen people who were obedient and loving to their God. Jesus told the gentile woman in Zarphath that He was to go to Jews first. The gentile woman said that the gentiles should get the crumbs like the dogs under the table at meal time. Us gentile believers should be very happy that Jesus let us get those crumbs.
I’m not Jewish 😆I love these stories. It’s so fascinating to me that Jesus is seen as the Christian person and that he’s not Jewish (to non messianic Jews) Also, we all need insight into how to witness. I’m going to be getting these books. 😊
As a Christian, I’m overjoyed and overwhelmed as how thousands and thousands of Jews are accepting JESUS as their messiah, Lord and saviour. JESUS has literally physically fulfilled all the prophecies of the BIBLE but Jewish Rabbis say , NO he has not fulfilled the Messiah prophecy because when messiah comes there will be peace on the earth 🌍. But the truth is when you except JESUS as your saviour, you experience the PEACE that passeth all understandings and your nature and character change for good and more holy and humble. As JESUS says love your enemies and love your neighbour as yourself and bless those who curse you, so when everyone start loving their enemies, don’t you think there will be world peace. The orthodox Jewish Rabbis are still misguiding people and saying JESUS is not the Messiah and still waiting for the Temple to be built and animal sacrifices to commence and Temple to be built. We are the temple of GOD and when JESUS died , the animal sacrifices stopped from that time , they don’t realise that but say that temple destroyed and that’s why sacrifices stopped as there is no temple. JESUS was the ultimate sacrificial lamb, who done the atonement for the sins of the world ( Jews and Gentiles) , and resurrected and soon coming back to Judge the world. I hope you evangelise the orthodox Rabbis with the help of the Holy Spirit. God bless you all. Israel is GOD’s inheritance and Jerusalem is his earthly throne. Amen 🙏.
I think that there is a bit of a gap between Jewish and (for example) English communication styles. We were raised with certain manners considered as common politeness that Jewish families are not, (i.e. not raising your voice, avoiding arguments, not saying what you are thinking) so in my first meek encounters with Jews I felt at a disadvantage. Since then I have learned the differences (and to love them).
I now want to get Randy Newman's book: QUESTIONING EVANGELISM. These are some key points on How to move people from UNBELIEF TO BELIEVE IN YESHUA. JESUS often answered a question with a question. When Jesus was asked, "Is it okay to get a divorce?" Jesus answered them with a question. He asked, "What did Moses write?" Have a dialogue with people. Ask God to do a work in you, to treat a person as a person. Ask the LORD IN JESUS' NAME to help you engage with unbelievers to love and respect them, and to lead them out of darkness into Light. Ask God for Wisdom to have the mind of Christ. You're approach is not to win an argument but to help them get out of their own imprisonment, their own unbelief or insincerity. GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY for people's Salvation and for proclaiming His Truth. THINK ON THE FINISHED WORK OF MESSIAH JESUS. .. ON HIS INFINITE LOVE & THE FACT THAT YOU COULD NEVER LOSE HIS LOVE. REMEMBER GOD IS WITH YOU IN THE CONVERSATION...DON'T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT HIM.
Dear Beloved in Christ Jesus, At age 6 I became a believer in Jesus. It was a simplistic faith because I was told that if I wanted to go to heaven, I had to ask Jesus to come into my life. Well, I wanted to go to heaven, so I went up front and with my pastors help I asked Jesus into my ‘heart’ (life). - At age 16 I gave that ‘life’ over to Jesus and told Him that I wanted to serve him. I then became a summer missionary with Child Evangelism Ministry, and each summer for three years I taught weeklong bible study clubs for kids. In one of my club’s some of the kids told me that a nun from their church had given them candy and stickers to encourage them not to attend my club. Being a naïve teenager, I asked the kids to introduce me to their nun. I asked her what I was teaching that she disapproved of. She took offence at my teaching that Jesus was a Jew. When I showed her the genealogies of Jesus in her bible that proved Jesus was a Jew. Her response was, “He may have started out Jewish, but He converted.” At the time I had to fight my desire to laugh right out loud. However, as I grew up, and learned that Jewish children basically grow up believing that same lie and teach it to their children. It makes my heart ack, to see Satan’s ‘double-barreled’ weapon against all people who need to know the savior of the world, who need the messiah. (Luke 2:10-14) And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ (Messiah) the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men (mankind). This birth announcement, though given to some Jewish shepherd boys, was a message of good tidings that was meant for! V.10: “all people” and V.14: “toward mankind”. I praise God for the Jewish people who preserved the Word of God, so that this little Baptist Girl could grow up and become a Child of the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, “Christ/Messiah”. ‘Christ’ isn’t Jesus’ last name; it is His title. - Love ‘N’ Blessings in Christ/Messiah, Jesus Our lord - Ruth A. Snow (age 76) - PS (Look me up at the supper table that Jesus is preparing for all of us who trust in his sacrifice on our behalf, OK? [Rev.19:6-9])
Unfortunately Satan was initially successful in separating Christians and Jews, but Glory to God, Jesus ultimately wins and brings His bride (Christians + Messianic Jews = The Church) home!
There's much bad eschatology in the modern Evangelical Church which promotes two avenues to salvation: One for Jews, and one for Gentiles. But the Bible says there is only one way for everyone; we place our faith and trust in what Christ has done on our behalf. Perhaps that's why some Christians are reluctant to share the Gospel with ethnic Jews.
Jesus is the Lord of the Shabbat. Can you please explain this. Are we as believers in Jesus, are we to observe the weekly Shabbat and Gods Feast Days. Thank you for any feedback.
The feast days were part of the ceremonial law which were looking forward to the Messiah, which were nailed to the cross. The Sabbath was instituted before sin and at creation, and it is still binding
For where two or three are gathered in My name [meeting together as My followers], I am there among them.” Matthew 18:20 כי במקום שבו מתאספים שניים או שלושה בשמי [נפגשים יחד כחסידי], שם אני ביניהם". מתי 18:20
The great failure of Israel was failing to recognize the time of her visitation. The great failure of believing gentiles has been our instigating, participating in, and allowing the continuation of the persecution and oppression of Jews. Jesus ministered for 3 years. The hands of Latinate christendom have been stained with more and more Jewish blood for nearly 2000 years. Who comes out worse in that equation?
How do you as a Jewish believer understand the Trinity? Did you know there are thousands of 1st Century believers who do not believe the false teachings of trinity? We believe there is only One God in Deuteronomy 6:4 just like the Jewish belief. Take a look at David Bernard’s books.
@maryvandeusen5554, Maybe some of them can only be 'reached' by / preached to someone who understands them from their own point of view: another Jew. The Jews who snarl are responding from 2000 years of fear of going against their own culture, against their beloved God. As Randy explains, nothing prepares a Jew for the proof of something that the Jews have been taught to NOT explore. Jews are taught explicitly that Jesus is a betrayal to their culture, etc. They are taught that Jesus must have been a disgusting person to have been crucified (hence ignoring OT prediction of the betrayal of His Provenance. ) I will try to find a way to gently suggest that Jews whom I encounter are welcome to challenge the witnessing of Randy Newman. They may find the challenge is an unexpected welcome discovery 💙🙏💙 I would not insult them with a presumption of any ignorance on their part. I would kindly welcome them to a friendly challenge.
And Paul writes speaking of the Jews. Now if the fail of them be the riches of the World, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness. Rom. 11:12 But when the fullness of time was come God sent forth his Son made of a women, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts crying Ab'-ba, Father Gal 4: 4-6. Love You Brothers.
AHAAA!!! So now you’ve discovered Him (Yeshua the Jewish Messiah) and now you want Him back?! As in you wanna take Him from the gentiles? Well guess what, we don’t feel like giving Him back!😜 Just kidding! But not kidding, we ain’t giving Jesus back, luckily He is with ALL of us at the same time through His Holy Spirit🥰✝️🙏 I LOVE your conversation, and we Christians pray for the Jews and Muslims and everyone else to recognize Yeshua the Messiah and be saved❤️ We are ALL ONE MAN in Christ Jesus🙏✝️🥰 To me Jesus is literally family❤️and we are ALL family in Him🙂
I'm curious what your thoughts on chapter 12 book of revelations reference to the Virgin Mary, woman clothed with the Sun a crown of 12 stars, belived to represent the 12 tribes of Israel. We Catholics call her the new ark of the covenant, she held the word made flesh in her womb.
The woman in Rev 12 refers to Israel, not Mary. Israel birthed the Messiah for the world. The woman is clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and on her head are 12 stars. Look at Joseph's dream in Genesis 37:9. Look at Rev 12:6. Did Mary flee into the wilderness for 1260 days? No. But Israel will in the coming Tribulation.
@@John-jh5ks sorry, but Israel was not in labor and bore a child, a male son. And the devil made war against her children.. THE NEW EVE ! The ark of the new covenant .the virgin Mary I prefer the Catholic version.
The New Testament confirms and clarifies the Old Testament. The Old Testament prophesies gave us the birth, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The only reference to Mary is Isaiah 7:14. Her role ended with the birth of Jesus! No Scripture in the Old Testament gives her any other role in man's redemption. You Catholics introduced another religion and try to use the name of Jesus to validate it. Clearly, you have been deceived by the devil! Only gullible people accept your false religion.
@@pearladams4817 So you are Telling me, the holy spirit was wrong for 1500 years!! The Catholic Church, the true church. Wonder how Jesus feels when you trash his mother, he lived with her for 33 years, she stood at the foot of the cross. Guess you will have to answer in time
@@kellycurran4608 The Roman Catholic Church was the creation of Emperor Constantine. It is completely anti-Christ. Show me any doctrine of your false religion that aligns with the Bible. In my early years as a believer, I wanted to convert to Roman Catholicism because I felt that Protestants spend too many hours in church! I was then asked by the Catholic leadership at the Shrine of Saint Jude, Yaba, Lagos in Nigeria to attend a Catechism class to prepare me for membership in your false church. The first day of the class, the Rev brother assigned to us said with a smirk that we would not bother ourselves with the first eleven chapters of Genesis, because according to him, these were fiction. In fact, he described the burning bush story as childish. I later wrote to the church leadership, thinking that he would be sanctioned for these blasphemous utterances but nothing was done. Years later, I read in an international magazine that the then Pope Benedict had endorsed a research on the origin of man. It was then it dawned on me that the Rev brother was paroting the position of the Catholic church. You ought to be ashamed of yourselves for rejecting the word of God and creating a convenient religion for yourself- a religion that promotes perpetual confessions without repentance. Is this Scriptural? In fact, I don't care what your master, satan who parades as an angel of light through your 'jesus' and 'mary' can do to me. I have the greater one living in me. His name is Yeshua, the Son of the Living God.
You are like these Breakoff of the Christians The original Christians were Jews who acted Jewishly in all respects except for their belief in Yeshu. Eventually, the Christians realized that the Jewish people would not accept their idolatrous beliefs, and decided to introduce their religion to the Gentile world. Instrumental in this endeavor was a Jew named Paul, with whom the major tenets of Christianity originate. In order to make Christianity palatable to non-Jews, Paul taught that the Torah's commandments do not have to be kept; instead, faith in Yeshu was all that mattered. Paul traveled all over the Roman Empire, attracting many converts to Christianity, a new religion which borrowed ideas from the Torah, some of its morals and ethics, and some rituals, which Paul combined with pagan rites. Not content with rewriting basic Judaism, Paul also claimed that the gentile Christians supplanted the Jews as G‑d's chosen people, and that the Christian New Testament had replaced the Torah. He also taught that the Jews killed Yeshu and could only be saved only if they turn to his worship. Such teachings, although not the sole basis for Christian anti-Semitism, played a significant role in the way post-Pauline Christians viewed the Jewish people. As two scholars put it: “Those who believe Paul taught such ideas are able to cite many passages from his own writings in support of their interpretation. If they are right, he must be held responsible for the theological anti-Judaism that soon grew up in the Church and proved to be the ancestor of later anti-Semitism. In any case, since his writings so eloquently set forth the Christian myth, inherently anti-Jewish as it turned out to be, he can hardly escape all responsibility for the implications that later generations found in it." "So when it comes to the question of the origin of Christian hatred for Jews, Paul is at the story's center. His letters, as the oldest extant Christian writings, show him at his most flawed. His rage, prejudice, and self-obsession are as evident as his courage, gentleness, and faith." By 100 CE, Christianity was an exclusively non-Jewish religion.
My good friend, pls stop your vitriols against St Paul... He wrote as the Spirit of God directed. I didn't read in any of Paul's letters where he told Christians to kill/hate Jews. He only pointed out the fact in history....if in later centuries some zealots misunderstood Paul and were carrying out a reactionary attack against Jews. How is it Paul's fault?.. Stop listening to Rabbis who aim to perpetuate Jews/ Christian divide just for their selfish egos. Fill your heart with the love of the Jewish Christ and all your anger/ indignation will cease.
I’m a Jewish believer. The old covenant and new covenant are like hand and glove, perfectly fit together. Praise our great God! ✡️✝️
I am a Gentile Christian and I love hearing the life stories of Jewish people coming to know Jesus. I have a close Jewish friend who came to believe in Jesus
by reading straight through the OT and NT.
Hey, I'm not Jewish! But I do enjoy hearing their stories about coming to Jesus!!
AMEN ❤❤❤
Me too😂
Great interview, I have been sharing since becoming a believer, with a man who is Jewish. I have known him most of my life and consider him to be family. He is 95 now and I am nearly 70. He and I have gotten to share over the years but when I got spend time with him recently he asked me again about my conversion and how I had come to be a believer in Jesus. Please pray with me for him who will soon stand before Jesus, that they will meet as those who already know each other. Shalom
Give him Isiah 9:6, Isaiah 44:6 Isaiah 52:13-16 and all of Isaiah 53. Give him I think it’s Nehemiah where he tells how long until the Christ comes. Smart men including I think it was Albert Einstein and more who figured the dates and that April 6, 32 AD was Palm Sunday. Also Daniel chapter 9. And I can’t remember exactly where it says the savior will come riding on a colt the foal of a donkey which Jesus did that day. There’s the passage in the Old Testament telling that. That he comes having salvation. A simple google search will find it. This man is asking. Lead him to the answers
I loved the discussion about answering questions with questions. Beautiful. Yes, we must probe the heart of the question and use wisdom and prayer while answering. ❤
As someone who is trying to find their way back to the Christian Faith and to Jesus, I thank you so much for this channel and these interviews. It adds SO much context, history, understanding and explanation. Incredible content and obvious Love for Jesus. Beautiful. God Bless.
As a gentile who loves the Jewish people, in the past I have hosted Israelis. Some I could share with, some of them were not interested. Had some interesting conversations. Getting Israelis to read Isaiah 53 was really cool, and would find that was when we could use the questions and answers. And yes as a Christian am grafted in to the Olive tree of Israel.
Wonderful, inspiring. Thank you, Men.
We all need to go through Jesus! It's so exciting to see the Jewish people accept Christ. Great channel!! Lord Jesus is Jewish awesome!!
@robertstephenson6806 Isaiah 9:6. A child is born, a son given, and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, and Prince of peace. (The Jews understood in those days that a son given means that som would be sacrificed) John 8:58-57I tell you the truth, Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” At this they picked up stones to stone him. But Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds ( 10:24 He just claimed to be the I Am, which was not lost on his audience)
Isaiah 44:6-7. This is what the LORD says-Israel’s King and Redeemer, the LORD Almighty, I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.
Revelation 22:12. Behold I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done I am Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
Isaiah 44
10“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“and my servant whom I have chosen,
so that you may know and believe me
and understand that I am he.
Before me no god was formed,
nor will there be one after me.
11I, even I, am the Lord,
and apart from me there is no savior.
12I have revealed and saved and proclaimed-
I, and not some foreign god among you.
You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God.
13Yes, and from ancient days I am he.
No one can deliver out of my hand.
When I act, who can reverse it?”
So it seems to me according to the scriptures, that God came down in body form (Immanuel means God with us) and as God did the children of Israel throughout history, and as Abraham told Isaac when he asked where the sacrifice was and Abraham answered him , God will provide my son.” And again He did provide. We err when we think this is about us. It’s about God and how Good God alone is. Blessings
This is fun to discover Mr. Morgan and Mr. Newman : we Nigerians do the same thing - we answer a question with another question. 😀 Good to know that Nigerians and Jews have some things in common.
Preach Randy Newman, keep preaching!!!
Please consider doing an in-depth series of each Jewish festival/ holiday. I’d love to learn more.
I like it when Jeff said he was in the gym and the guy that was so happy said to him ‘I’m not trying to bring you out of your Jewishness. I’m joining your fold and worshipping the same God you do’. That sentence really helped me in case I ever get the chance to speak to Jewish people.
PRAISE GOD. ALMIGHTY , GREAT. INTERVIEW , WE. ARE. SO. BLESSED TO. BE. CHOOSE. ON. TO. SALVATION , BY. ALMIGHTY GOD . YES. THE. GEOLOGY OF JESUS 🙏🙏🙏. THE. GOSPEL OF. MATTHEW . ,
What I love is that as the gym pastor said, as a gentile believer, I don’t want to pull a Jewish person away from the Jewish God, I want to share that I believe in Him too, but with the knowledge that the Jewish Messiah came and was with Jews first, as God’s Chosen people. I’m the adopted one. God be praised for men like Jeff and Randy.
Jeff, I like the way you interview. You ask good questions, encourage the conversation, don’t interrupt and most of all that you don’t argue with your guests. Good job! I am a Christian whose parents came out of war torn Poland.
Praise the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob (Israel) for this interview. As a gentile it was truly a blessing for me. God bless.
Love this channel. I work in a Jewish firm, and I care about my co-workers very much. Please pray that their eyes would be opened. Thank you.
I'm a Christ follower. I don't want to sell anyone on religion. I want people to have Jesus! He's the BEST thing in my life and nothing in this world compares to Him! I love Jews and just desire them to know my Jesus, who is Jewish too! I would say too that when we're telling someone about Jesus/Yeshua, we can be led by the Father as Jesus was. He said He never said anything but what the Father said to Him (Jesus), so it takes the pressure off when we can let the Father speak through us and say what that person needs to hear.
We're not all Jewish! As a Gentile Christian I find the testimonies of Jewish believers totally inspiring and am enriched by their perspective on Jesus/Yeshua, God bless you all!
I believe the exact reason Jews and Christian’s must stand side by side is because we are grafted into one family under Yeshua!!! Both Christian’s and Jews need to educate and encourage one another in studying The Bible together and promote the symbiotic relationship which Yeshua fulfills.
It is amazing the wisdom of God how He made the translators of the New Testament to put as the first book the Book of Matthew which is not the first book written in the NT but which astonished the Jews who open a NT and read and see the Jewish genealogy of Jesus! We will never cease to be in awe of The Holy God for eternity! If this is not an amazing God then I don't know who is! Thank you for the work you are doing. It thrilled my heart to see that our prayers as Gentiles for the salvation of Jewish people are answered more and more! And so we shall all together fellowship for eternity in heaven!
I so appreicate this interview, I've shared it on FB and pray that ''someone'' who needs to hear this will listen to this video, I love the Jewish people and pray daily that many will come to Jesus , and also ask that God will bring Jews on my path to share 'The Great News'!! God bless you both, and again thank you! ❤🤍💙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love Randy Newman's excitement over the parallels between the Old & New Testament. I wish he'd author a book on this topic, explaining his cognitive journey in this discovery.
As a traditional Catholic (Latin Rite with old fashioned 'unliberated' - as in not hateful & not a woman dressed as a man - feminine values), I'd love to learn more about how the 2 sides mesh, as Mr. Newman describes.
I'm so encouraged and joyful for all of these souls saved I see on this channel . Praise God💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖
Randy your comments in this podcast are really helpful to this gentile. I believe the "time of the gentiles" is over and the Jewish believers are going to be the spearhead of evangelism in the near future. Thanks so much.
I'm not sure what the "time of the Gentiles" means. The Messiah has come, his life and work are the fulcrum of all human history, the Church (almost exclusively Jewish) is born, and the Abrahamic Covenant (that all nations would be blessed) is expanding across the world, saving both Jew and Gentile.
I found your channel through Pastor Rogers, thank you so much for this discussion. New subscriber 🙏😊
I remember my dad explaining to me when I was a child, that the difference between Judaism and Christianity, was that basically, they were the same religion, that the Jews had the Old Testament, Christians had the Old and the New Testament as their holy book, and that Jews were still waiting for their Messiah, whereas Christians had believed that he had already come. There were Jewish students at my Christian elementary school, as well as Buddhists, Hindus, and I think I remember seeing at least one Muslim or Sikh kid. I always felt very akin to Judaism in particular, and had a lot of respect for the culture and traditions. I was sad that there was some bad blood there from some old wounds historically. But our school taught tolerance and we all got along. There really was nothing to disagree about at that age, so it never really came up. We were just taught to respect each other, and if you were of a different religion and didn’t want to say the prayers or say Amen, you could bow your head in respect and remain there quietly. We had chapel every Wednesday that all staff and students were required to attend, and we did.
It’s interesting to understand and look at the similarities of a lot of Abrahamic traditions from around that time, Judaism, Christianity, even Old Catholic vs. Roman Catholic, which came much later. Anyway, I enjoy learning about the differences. I do think it’s a very personal relationship, and so I feel like it takes an in someone feeling the call of God on their life, to speak with authority about it. Which, I believe that you gentlemen have - and it’s true, it’s all of God’s doing. It’s good to examine why we choose to believe the things that we do. Thank you for sharing your work.
This interview was fascinating!! Thank you so much for sharing. Witnessing to a Jewish person is very intimidating and I hope if I’m ever met with the opportunity, God will give me the right words to say. God loves His chosen people so much and it brings me so much joy when they find Christ and experience the love and companionship with Jesus and our Heavenly Father that they were missing before.
Love listening to you. God made Jew and Gentile into One new man in the new birth. Jesus speaks with the authority of God. I am forever grateful for the Bible.
So glad there's this channel. I had dinner with some of my Christian friends where they shared with me that Jews don't need to go through Jesus to be saved because Jews have a special covering. I was shocked that they had learned that at church.
Just remember:
10 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
13 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
Matthew chapter 9
Kathleen, as a 67 year old gentile who was raised in the church, and who has been a follower of Jesus since my 13th year, I respectfully say that anyone who says that there are other ways to fellowship with Yahweh, they are in grave error. Jesus stated that He is THE way. Paul didn’t proclaim any such Gospel while on his journeys. As a gentile, I know that I’m of the wild grapes who were graciously engrafted into the Vine and to say that Jews do not need Jesus would be the worst thing I could say to my Savior’s people
Hi Kathleen ~ I wish you a happy Hanukkah! I hope others have helped you with this question! But, if they haven’t, know that the “covering” referred to - is PRIOR to the coming of Jesus Christ - followed by his death and resurrection. I also pray that some of the community here, or others from One For Israel and our Jewish brothers and sisters who are Jewish Christians will help answer your questions! Obviously, you are here and this is a great channel to reveal the beauty of the Jewish Messiah and the wonderful Jewish people! I truly hope you reach out to some of us, while you read scripture. Please know I say this out of the deepest respect and LOVE for you and God’s Blessed Chosen People!!🥰
Love and Blessings✝🇨🇦✝🇮🇱✝
I most defiantly know Jesus is the promised Messiah of the Jewish and all people. and I love Jesus and the Jewish people with all my heart.
Love it!
YOUR WORD (Complete Holy Hebrew Scriptures), O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. YOUR faithfulness continues through all generations.
I confess that I clicked on this interview thinking that this was Randy Newman, the famous, wonderful songwriter. I kept waiting for you to ask him about his early life and how that led him to Jesus. After quite a while I recognized my mistake. Both Randy's are warm, smart and funny and it was a good interview.. Now if you could get the other one on I'd stay till the end of the interview...
Love the guidance and encouragement of Randy Newman in engaging with Jewish people from Gentiles.❤🙏
THANKS SO MUCH for all this valuable information. It is very encouraging. As a non-Jewish Believer, I would say that much of the Bible has been misunderstood by many Christians (many don’t read it either!), even to the point that many think that the Old Testament Law is now “done away with” along with its “curse” and that Yeshua/Jesus was introducing a whole new program that contradicted the Old Testament ways!
The Lord has led me to seek the truth, and after years of Bible expository teaching by Jewish teachers, who have the Jewish perspective and understanding, I am happy to say that I have connected most of the dots. I praise Our Father that I am privileged to live in these times. Also that He has given me a love for the Jews.
Kathy James, I'm not sure where you are getting your information about Christian believers, but the sermon at every Catholic Mass is read directly from the Bible. It is also printed in the missal. Even if the person didn't read the Bible themself, the Old and New Testament is taught in Catholic schools. I don't know anything about the "curse" you are talking about, but I've heard other Christians talking about Catholics not readying the Bible before I read your comment. You didn't say Catholics, but it is hurtful to hear someone talking about any Christian not reading the Bible. Where is that coming from? I think we should not say anything that divides us, Jew or Christian. How do you know what many Christians do? There is no way, and I'll only speak for Catholics, that they don't understand the old and new testaments.
Hi, thanks for replying, my point was to draw others to new understanding and fulfillment through the Hebrew perspective. I don’t know enough about Catholics to have an informed opinion (but know enough not to judge God’s other servants).
In answer to your response, I am drawing from my own experience (struggling to want to read the Word of God, struggling in my own walk of obedience, etc.) and hearing sermons with reports about this issue being quite common. I also know that some Christians have believed that the Old Testament is no longer applicable, to the point that Bibles were printed with only the New Testament, (plus the Psalms and Proverbs).When some friends were seeking truth and reading the Old Testament, their church members were praying for them, that they be saved from the “curse” of the Law. Galatians 3:13 uses this wording, but it explains we are released from the Law’s condemnation by Jesus’ atoning sacrifice. However it is not understood by some that Jesus told us to keep His Commandments. In fact, some believe that He rebelled against the Commandments with all new teachings. I know people who attend church, but feel no guilt living with people without marrying, so I assume they believe the Commandments no longer apply.
I now understand that the New Testament is solidly based on the Old Testament, and I am enjoying reading the Word, and I now realize how critical a lifeline it is in these, the last of the last days. Blessings!
Brilliant as a Gentile believer I found it very informative refreshing.God Bless your work.I'll try and get hold of that book .
My brother Jeff in Christ, I found your channel yesterday and watching wonderful testimonials for the Lord Jesus. It's so heartening and inspiring how the Lord is encountering His chosen from Jews. Thank you so much and a big God bless for your great work that you are reaching the Jews and the rest of the world through your channel. God bless your family and ministry.🙏🙏
For me it's a new Jerusalem, I love God... My faith is in His Word, His promises... I pray Christian's and Jews both read "Why Israel? , by Derek Prince and open your heart to God's promises so we all live in His fulfillment to His glory. ❤
As a Gentile Christian (who has little to no knowledge the past between us)… hearing only your testimonies and WOW 🤩 the LORD’s incredibly personal saving work in you BOTH… just cheering bc I know Paul’s heart for his own people … and I get to see this in double… all this was joy to hear how Jesus is recognizable to even Jewish young men who have not been very familiar with (I call it the Old Testament… I know that’s not it’s name, I am sorry I’m not confident to write the other name bc it’s still in English)
Needless to say, immediately I bought his book bc I’m confident it is correct in heart for bringing people out of darkness. Sitting here just today, going through tracts nothing was feeling right, but ALL of this I needed to hear… I’m grieved that there is a past between Gentiles and the Jewish people. I’m now a subscriber, this has blessed me, thank you!
"you've got a friend in me..."
So many excellent points here, I'll be praying for an opportunity to use them. Glory to God !
This channel is what I've been looking for!
Hi, Sara, 10 months later and I’ve found it as well. Nice to see a friend in the comments. ❤
I love all the songs that Randy has written!
wrong randy neuman
I'm really enjoying this conversation and I feel like I am right there with you.
🍓 A pastor sharing his testimony during his sermon where I attended. He said every time when he flies, he picks the middle seat in order to preach the Gospel to his neighbors.
In many occasions, he receives good responses, but one time, he asked a woman sitting next to him if she knew who Jesus was, the woman raised her voices and told this pastor not to talk this sh**.
I think, most likely, that woman might be a Jewish person who was deeply influenced by her environment.
I am a gentile. If I were given an opportunity to talk to a Jew, I think I would preach the Gospel, but would start carefully.
Amen, only the Holy Spirit. Catholics who find grace and peace in the friend of Christ are similarly relieved to feel accepted as they are.
Loving these interviews! They are right on point saying the Bible has so many layers, and the more you read the more is exposed. It’s the most exciting book ever❤
Hi jeff, hi randy, pleased to meet you.
Thank you both
Hi
Great conversation, loved how you came to faith! Don’t forget that JEALOUSY is the biggest lynchpin! Just talking to people isn’t enough. They have to be stirred by what they perceive you to have that they haven’t!
Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over the world government from Jerusalem.
I love Randy's enthusiasm! Thank you for a wonderful set of interviews 💙🙏💙
Another great testimony!🙌 (Sidenote, I want to see the art work behind Randy! 😊)
Soooooo happy. I have
Prayed for years for thin. Thank you Jesus
Alleluia Alleluia Alleluia Glory to God Amen 🙏 ❤ 🙌 💖 ♥ 💙 🙏
God chose Israelites to be His first people to love. God shows us that there were many Jews who were disobedient. But there was a remnant of the chosen people who were obedient and loving to their God. Jesus told the gentile woman in Zarphath that He was to go to Jews first. The gentile woman said that the gentiles should get the crumbs like the dogs under the table at meal time. Us gentile believers should be very happy that Jesus let us get those crumbs.
Thank you for sharing, I always pray for Jews to accept Jesus Christ, and I love to know more about Jews, I am Indonesian
I’m not Jewish 😆I love these stories. It’s so fascinating to me that Jesus is seen as the Christian person and that he’s not Jewish (to non messianic Jews) Also, we all need insight into how to witness. I’m going to be getting these books. 😊
As a Christian, I’m overjoyed and overwhelmed as how thousands and thousands of Jews are accepting JESUS as their messiah, Lord and saviour.
JESUS has literally physically fulfilled all the prophecies of the BIBLE but Jewish Rabbis say , NO he has not fulfilled the Messiah prophecy because when messiah comes there will be peace on the earth 🌍. But the truth is when you except JESUS as your saviour, you experience the PEACE that passeth all understandings and your nature and character change for good and more holy and humble. As JESUS says love your enemies and love your neighbour as yourself and bless those who curse you, so when everyone start loving their enemies, don’t you think there will be world peace.
The orthodox Jewish Rabbis are still misguiding people and saying JESUS is not the Messiah and still waiting for the Temple to be built and animal sacrifices to commence and Temple to be built.
We are the temple of GOD and when JESUS died , the animal sacrifices stopped from that time , they don’t realise that but say that temple destroyed and that’s why sacrifices stopped as there is no temple. JESUS was the ultimate sacrificial lamb, who done the atonement for the sins of the world ( Jews and Gentiles) , and resurrected and soon coming back to Judge the world. I hope you evangelise the orthodox Rabbis with the help of the Holy Spirit.
God bless you all.
Israel is GOD’s inheritance and Jerusalem is his earthly throne.
Amen 🙏.
❤Maranatha Yeshua ❤
I think that there is a bit of a gap between Jewish and (for example) English communication styles. We were raised with certain manners considered as common politeness that Jewish families are not, (i.e. not raising your voice, avoiding arguments, not saying what you are thinking) so in my first meek encounters with Jews I felt at a disadvantage. Since then I have learned the differences (and to love them).
Don't be anxious about what you are going to say , the Holy spirit will tell you when you get there...
💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖
H.H. and me we were both Jewish people salespersons
I now want to get Randy Newman's book: QUESTIONING EVANGELISM. These are some key points on How to move people from UNBELIEF TO BELIEVE IN YESHUA. JESUS often answered a question with a question. When Jesus was asked, "Is it okay to get a divorce?" Jesus answered them with a question. He asked, "What did Moses write?" Have a dialogue with people. Ask God to do a work in you, to treat a person as a person. Ask the LORD IN JESUS' NAME to help you engage with unbelievers to love and respect them, and to lead them out of darkness into Light. Ask God for Wisdom to have the mind of Christ. You're approach is not to win an argument but to help them get out of their own imprisonment, their own unbelief or insincerity. GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY for people's Salvation and for proclaiming His Truth. THINK ON THE FINISHED WORK OF MESSIAH JESUS. .. ON HIS INFINITE LOVE & THE FACT THAT YOU COULD NEVER LOSE HIS LOVE. REMEMBER GOD IS WITH YOU IN THE CONVERSATION...DON'T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT HIM.
Dear Beloved in Christ Jesus,
At age 6 I became a believer in Jesus. It was a simplistic faith because I was told that if I wanted to go to heaven, I had to ask Jesus to come into my life. Well, I wanted to go to heaven, so I went up front and with my pastors help I asked Jesus into my ‘heart’ (life). - At age 16 I gave that ‘life’ over to Jesus and told Him that I wanted to serve him. I then became a summer missionary with Child Evangelism Ministry, and each summer for three years I taught weeklong bible study clubs for kids.
In one of my club’s some of the kids told me that a nun from their church had given them candy and stickers to encourage them not to attend my club. Being a naïve teenager, I asked the kids to introduce me to their nun. I asked her what I was teaching that she disapproved of. She took offence at my teaching that Jesus was a Jew. When I showed her the genealogies of Jesus in her bible that proved Jesus was a Jew. Her response was, “He may have started out Jewish, but He converted.” At the time I had to fight my desire to laugh right out loud. However, as I grew up, and learned that Jewish children basically grow up believing that same lie and teach it to their children. It makes my heart ack, to see Satan’s ‘double-barreled’ weapon against all people who need to know the savior of the world, who need the messiah.
(Luke 2:10-14) And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ (Messiah) the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men (mankind).
This birth announcement, though given to some Jewish shepherd boys, was a message of good tidings that was meant for! V.10: “all people” and V.14: “toward mankind”. I praise God for the Jewish people who preserved the Word of God, so that this little Baptist Girl could grow up and become a Child of the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, “Christ/Messiah”. ‘Christ’ isn’t Jesus’ last name; it is His title.
- Love ‘N’ Blessings in Christ/Messiah, Jesus Our lord - Ruth A. Snow (age 76) -
PS (Look me up at the supper table that Jesus is preparing for all of us who trust in his sacrifice on our behalf, OK? [Rev.19:6-9])
I thot it was Randy Newman the music guy!
Unfortunately Satan was initially successful in separating Christians and Jews, but Glory to God, Jesus ultimately wins and brings His bride (Christians + Messianic Jews = The Church) home!
Interestng inďeed
Jeff hello. I have some questions. Are you prepared to answer?
Bible good news from God to human by Jesus christ our lord savior Messiah Amen ❤
There's much bad eschatology in the modern Evangelical Church which promotes two avenues to salvation: One for Jews, and one for Gentiles. But the Bible says there is only one way for everyone; we place our faith and trust in what Christ has done on our behalf. Perhaps that's why some Christians are reluctant to share the Gospel with ethnic Jews.
Judaism and Christianity fit together as the Two Sticks Of Ezekiel Judah and Ephraim whom YHWH said would be reunited one day Baruch Hashem YHWH

Didn't he write Short people?
Jesus is the Lord of the Shabbat. Can you please explain this. Are we as believers in Jesus, are we to observe the weekly Shabbat and Gods Feast Days. Thank you for any feedback.
The feast days were part of the ceremonial law which were looking forward to the Messiah, which were nailed to the cross. The Sabbath was instituted before sin and at creation, and it is still binding
For where two or three are gathered in My name [meeting together as My followers], I am there among them.”

Jesus Christ is ISHI YIDDISH in all his ways ,John 17,,hoshea 2 from genesis to revelation, revelation to genesis
He didn't speak Yiddish unless there was an Aramaic brand(ish).
Can someone convert to Judaism as a Jew for Jesus?
The great failure of Israel was failing to recognize the time of her visitation. The great failure of believing gentiles has been our instigating, participating in, and allowing the continuation of the persecution and oppression of Jews. Jesus ministered for 3 years. The hands of Latinate christendom have been stained with more and more Jewish blood for nearly 2000 years. Who comes out worse in that equation?
Jesus Christ Holy ghost will make sure no sheep is lost
Jesus was Jewish rabbi of rabbis
I know the Jewish roota of Christianity.
How do you as a Jewish believer understand the Trinity? Did you know there are thousands of 1st Century believers who do not believe the false teachings of trinity? We believe there is only One God in Deuteronomy 6:4 just like the Jewish belief. Take a look at David Bernard’s books.
***He went to Church because the girls were cute😂
I tried and got insulted. Why should anyone try when they just snarl and hurt loving Christians??? True Christians are NOT antisemitic.
@maryvandeusen5554, Maybe some of them can only be 'reached' by / preached to someone who understands them from their own point of view: another Jew.
The Jews who snarl are responding from 2000 years of fear of going against their own culture, against their beloved God.
As Randy explains, nothing prepares a Jew for the proof of something that the Jews have been taught to NOT explore.
Jews are taught explicitly that Jesus is a betrayal to their culture, etc. They are taught that Jesus must have been a disgusting person to have been crucified (hence ignoring OT prediction of the betrayal of His Provenance. )
I will try to find a way to gently suggest that Jews whom I encounter are welcome to challenge the witnessing of Randy Newman.
They may find the challenge is an unexpected welcome discovery 💙🙏💙 I would not insult them with a presumption of any ignorance on their part. I would kindly welcome them to a friendly challenge.
And Paul writes speaking of the Jews. Now if the fail of them be the riches of the World, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness. Rom. 11:12 But when the fullness of time was come God sent forth his Son made of a women, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts crying Ab'-ba, Father Gal 4: 4-6. Love You Brothers.
the New Testament is the last third of the tanakh.
AHAAA!!! So now you’ve discovered Him (Yeshua the Jewish Messiah) and now you want Him back?! As in you wanna take Him from the gentiles? Well guess what, we don’t feel like giving Him back!😜 Just kidding! But not kidding, we ain’t giving Jesus back, luckily He is with ALL of us at the same time through His Holy Spirit🥰✝️🙏 I LOVE your conversation, and we Christians pray for the Jews and Muslims and everyone else to recognize Yeshua the Messiah and be saved❤️ We are ALL ONE MAN in Christ Jesus🙏✝️🥰 To me Jesus is literally family❤️and we are ALL family in Him🙂
I'm curious what your thoughts on chapter 12 book of revelations reference to the Virgin Mary, woman clothed with the Sun a crown of 12 stars, belived to represent the 12 tribes of Israel. We Catholics call her the new ark of the covenant, she held the word made flesh in her womb.
The woman in Rev 12 refers to Israel, not Mary. Israel birthed the Messiah for the world. The woman is clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and on her head are 12 stars. Look at Joseph's dream in Genesis 37:9.
Look at Rev 12:6. Did Mary flee into the wilderness for 1260 days? No. But Israel will in the coming Tribulation.
@@John-jh5ks sorry, but Israel was not in labor and bore a child, a male son. And the devil made war against her children.. THE NEW EVE ! The ark of the new covenant .the virgin Mary I prefer the Catholic version.
The New Testament confirms and clarifies the Old Testament. The Old Testament prophesies gave us the birth, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The only reference to Mary is Isaiah 7:14. Her role ended with the birth of Jesus! No Scripture in the Old Testament gives her any other role in man's redemption. You Catholics introduced another religion and try to use the name of Jesus to validate it. Clearly, you have been deceived by the devil! Only gullible people accept your false religion.
@@pearladams4817 So you are Telling me, the holy spirit was wrong for 1500 years!! The Catholic Church, the true church. Wonder how Jesus feels when you trash his mother, he lived with her for 33 years, she stood at the foot of the cross. Guess you will have to answer in time
@@kellycurran4608 The Roman Catholic Church was the creation of Emperor Constantine. It is completely anti-Christ. Show me any doctrine of your false religion that aligns with the Bible. In my early years as a believer, I wanted to convert to Roman Catholicism because I felt that Protestants spend too many hours in church! I was then asked by the Catholic leadership at the Shrine of Saint Jude, Yaba, Lagos in Nigeria to attend a Catechism class to prepare me for membership in your false church. The first day of the class, the Rev brother assigned to us said with a smirk that we would not bother ourselves with the first eleven chapters of Genesis, because according to him, these were fiction. In fact, he described the burning bush story as childish. I later wrote to the church leadership, thinking that he would be sanctioned for these blasphemous utterances but nothing was done. Years later, I read in an international magazine that the then Pope Benedict had endorsed a research on the origin of man. It was then it dawned on me that the Rev brother was paroting the position of the Catholic church.
You ought to be ashamed of yourselves for rejecting the word of God and creating a convenient religion for yourself- a religion that promotes perpetual confessions without repentance. Is this Scriptural? In fact, I don't care what your master, satan who parades as an angel of light through your 'jesus' and 'mary' can do to me. I have the greater one living in me. His name is Yeshua, the Son of the Living God.
The Christian Church changed the order of the Hebrew Bible Tanach, putting the prophets last, to connect Matthew with Malaki. A theological crime!
I guess this isn’t the singer lol 😂
I am not Jewish. Lol
Jewish people are the smartest, so of course Jesus was Jewish. I'm not a jew by the way !!!
He goes to services once a year & he thinks he's capable of talking to G-d easy. No.
Talk about false advertising!
Could you have started with preconceived ideas - “before” you decided to become a Christian messianic (the preferred way of corresponding, right)? 😂
You are like these
Breakoff of the Christians
The original Christians were Jews who acted Jewishly in all respects except for their belief in Yeshu. Eventually, the Christians realized that the Jewish people would not accept their idolatrous beliefs, and decided to introduce their religion to the Gentile world. Instrumental in this endeavor was a Jew named Paul, with whom the major tenets of Christianity originate. In order to make Christianity palatable to non-Jews, Paul taught that the Torah's commandments do not have to be kept; instead, faith in Yeshu was all that mattered.
Paul traveled all over the Roman Empire, attracting many converts to Christianity, a new religion which borrowed ideas from the Torah, some of its morals and ethics, and some rituals, which Paul combined with pagan rites. Not content with rewriting basic Judaism, Paul also claimed that the gentile Christians supplanted the Jews as G‑d's chosen people, and that the Christian New Testament had replaced the Torah. He also taught that the Jews killed Yeshu and could only be saved only if they turn to his worship. Such teachings, although not the sole basis for Christian anti-Semitism, played a significant role in the way post-Pauline Christians viewed the Jewish people. As two scholars put it:
“Those who believe Paul taught such ideas are able to cite many passages from his own writings in support of their interpretation. If they are right, he must be held responsible for the theological anti-Judaism that soon grew up in the Church and proved to be the ancestor of later anti-Semitism. In any case, since his writings so eloquently set forth the Christian myth, inherently anti-Jewish as it turned out to be, he can hardly escape all responsibility for the implications that later generations found in it."
"So when it comes to the question of the origin of Christian hatred for Jews, Paul is at the story's center. His letters, as the oldest extant Christian writings, show him at his most flawed. His rage, prejudice, and self-obsession are as evident as his courage, gentleness, and faith."
By 100 CE, Christianity was an exclusively non-Jewish religion.
Do you consider Christians to be idolaters?
My good friend, pls stop your vitriols against St Paul... He wrote as the Spirit of God directed. I didn't read in any of Paul's letters where he told Christians to kill/hate Jews. He only pointed out the fact in history....if in later centuries some zealots misunderstood Paul and were carrying out a reactionary attack against Jews. How is it Paul's fault?.. Stop listening to Rabbis who aim to perpetuate Jews/ Christian divide just for their selfish egos. Fill your heart with the love of the Jewish Christ and all your anger/ indignation will cease.
Your explanation why Judaism didn’t work for you as a Jew, clarify you never understood it, cause of bad instruction.
May I suggest reading Romans 9, please? May you find the Truth so as to be set free from your anger
