Indeed if we Christians so tell our story that Judaism is silenced, then we have not spoken rightly of Christ.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I personally would not talk to a Jew for Jesus.
It is outrageous to utter the name of Jesus Christ and live in Judaism.
Silence, this will surprise you not, isn't really a Jewish concept.
Jews have suffered persecution from misguided Christians who tortured the Jews for their part in killing Christ. These Christians forgot that Christ died because of the sins of all men.
The biblical texts that we Christians have used for centuries to justify our hostility toward the Jews need to be banished forever from the sacred writings of the Christian church.
Jews have long experience with Christians who have tried to help us in putting our Judaism behind us.
This type of gathering is unprecedented. The time has come for Christians to publicly affirm our Jewish roots, distinctions and oneness in Jesus Christ.
The most that one of Jewish faith can do - and some have gladly done it - is to say that Jesus was the greatest in the long succession of Jewish prophets. None can acknowledge that Jesus was the Messiah without becoming a Christian.
Judaism boasts of no exclusive revelation of eternal truths that are indispensable to salvation, of no revealed religion in the sense in which that term is usually understood.
It seems, though, that historically we have now reached a position in which Jews cannot legitimately be understood always and only as presumptive victims.
