Dear Emile,
I will earnestly agree with you in your prayers for your family. I do not think it is so important to emphasize her abandonment of Judaism. This is what I have been trying to say to you but you have not heard me. She needs to come to Jesus as she is and no descussion of her current faith is necessary and will only provoke people. Jesus will Sheppard her as He does all of us once she sees He is her Messiah. That to me is the Good News that we come Just as we are and He changes us. We can not change ourselves or other people. When we try to force change with rigid intolerance we are in danger of being Pharisees in the truest form. Messianic Congregations are a major evangelic tool for people like your mother-in-law. Remember Paul said when I was with a Jew I acted like a Jew so that some might be saved. The focus is to get them to hear in a non defensive manner so they might understand. If we start to sound like their enemies we are lost in gaining their trust and hearing becomes difficult for it is not the truth. Jesus is an enemy to no one. May the Lord fill us all with His peace, love, and compassion, Nancy
