Jews for Jesus, Rock of Israel

Dear Friends,

There are two groups of Messianic Jews that I know about involved in attempting to falsely evangelize Jews.

Jews for Jesus

Jews for Jesus is a Baptistic in doctrine organization attempting to reach Jews with the false gospel of easy believism. They typically use the New International Version. Many of their leaders have a masters degree from Fuller Theological Seminary, so they have been taught and the ones I have met believe and have a prospective based on philosophical theology not Biblical theology.

Greg, our son, worked in a Jews for Jesus camp in Wisconsin. He was the camp's song leader and assistant counselor. He also was a summer missionary in New York City where his ministry partner was David an Israeli who died at the hands of the Palestinians. Greg was not comfortable with his training in evangelism. He was taught an aggressive, in your face, method of evangelism. He was used to his Dad's method, one of friendliness, love, caring, etc. Not seeking to argue, but to show Jesus' love.

As a family, we attended a Jews for Jesus In-gathering in Wisconsin. We had a great time.

I have personally spoken with the founder of Jews for Jesus, Moishe Rosen.

Have also spent time with Moishe Rosen's daughter and her family. Alan Bland her gentile husband is really a nice guy. Greg had a crush on their daughter.

Had traveled with another of their missionaries.

The staff have great salaries coming from their going from church to church asking for money.

Rock of Israel

Rock of Israel is a pentecostal in doctrine organization attempting to reach Jews with the false gospel of easy believism. The New International Version is used in the books written by co-founder Ruth Specter Lascelle. She writes the way I do, in outline form.

I have had dinner with Doug Carmel a long time missionary with Rock of Israel.

Robert Specter the son of the founders who is now the leader of Rock of Israel and I in the past have spoken about me being one of their missionaries.

What is the bottom line, Apostolics are needed to tell Jews about Jesus.
