Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus, Book 1

by  Michael L. Brown

Synopsis: Brown delivers a much-needed resource to Christians. He offers well-researched, thoughtful, biblical responses to difficult questions that arise when Christians share Yeshua (Jesus) with Jews.... Brown doesn't shy away from challenging subjects such as anti-missionary efforts and the Holocaust. As a result, the material is engaging and convicting. This soul-winning tool is written with a perfect blend of passion, wisdom, and revelation. It's ideal for readers wanting to reach Jewish family members, friends, or coworkers. It's also a must-have for anyone interested in understanding Christianity's Jewish roots.From a review by the CBA Marketplace.

Contents:

• Jews don't believe in Jesus.
• I was born a Jew and I will die a Jew!
• A person is either Jewish or Christian. I'm Jewish.
• Belief in Jesus and Jewishness in any form are incompatible
• Messianic Judaism, or Hebrew Christianity, is just one big deception.
• You have your religion, and I have mine. Jesus is for the Gentiles.
• The fundamental problem with Christianity is that it is not Judaism.
• If Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, why don't more Jews believe in him?
• I won't betray my ancestors! I won't forsake the faith of my fathers!
• What happens to Jews who do not believe in Jesus-especially those who never heard about him?
• What would happen to a Nazi murderer who believed in Jesus before he died?
• No religious or educated Jew would ever believe in Jesus.
• Those educated or religious Jews in the past who did convert to Christianity did so for monetary gain or because of social pressure.
• Those religious Jews who did become followers of Jesus always had the tendency to stray.
• Missionaries like you target the sick, the elderly, the ignorant, and the young and uninformed.
• I'm not a very religious person, but I'm certainly not a bad person.
• If Jesus really is the Messiah, why are there so many objections?
• Christianity simply doesn't work. It doesn't produce what it promises.
• You missionaries always use the same old arguments and proofs. Your faith can't be very deep!
• If Jesus is really the Messiah, why isn't there peace on earth?
• Why have wars, famines, and human suffering only increased since Jesus came?
• There was no Jewish expectation in the first century that the Messiah would be a great miracle worker.
• Jesus cannot be the Messiah because more Jewish blood has been shed in his name than in any other name or for any other cause.
• Christianity is actually a religion of hate not love.
• Jesus himself taught that he did not come to bring peace but a sword. We Jews have felt the edge of this sword for more than fifteen hundred years now!
• Christians have always hated and persecuted the Jewish people.
• The origins of anti-Semitism can be traced to the pages of the New Testament.
• Without the long, ugly history of Christian anti-Semitism, the Holocaust would never have occurred.
• Why did God allow six million Jews to die in the Holocaust?
• The main reason Christians are so zealous to convert Jews to their beliefs is to legitimize their faith.
• Although Jews have been forced to hold public debates with Christians in the past, Jews have won every debate.
• Jews who become Christians lose all connection to Judaism within two generations.
• Even so-called Christians can't agree among themselves.
• Christianity is just another great world religion, like Islam, Hinduism, or Buddhism. It is certainly not the true Messianic faith and the only way to find God.
• We dealt with Christianity nineteen hundred years ago.
