In 1997, he was appointed Visiting Professor of Jewish Apologetics at Fuller Theological Seminary School of World Mission and has been affiliated with Regent University Divinity School as an Adjunct Professor of Old Testament and Jewish Studies. Objection: "What Happens to Jews Who Do Not Believe In Jesus?"The only way to be granted forgiveness of sin is belief in Jesus. Jesus said, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one" (Mark 12:29). This is called the Shema and is chanted by God-fearing Jews. Jeremiah (29:13) says, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Some believe that many Jews, sincerely seeking God, died with the Shema on their lips and had revelations of Jesus in concentration camps and during other times of trial and tribulation. Only God knows those who are seeking Him with all their heart. We cannot know what is in any heart but our own. Who do YOU say Jesus is? |
