Was the New Testament written for Gentiles? Or Jews?
This actually is a key issue when talking with most Jewish people about Yeshua.
“That book is not for us! That is for the Gentiles”—I used to think this way, and so do many other Jewish people.
But guess what?! I was wrong! And, boy, am I glad I was wrong (at least about this!).
In today’s video, we continue to take the veil off of common Jewish objections to Yeshua the Messiah.
Please pray for this video as we share it in Israel on Shelanu TV—our 24-7 Hebrew gospel channel. Pray for hearts to be open to the good news of the Kingdom of God and lives to be changed.
Until all Israel is saved (Rom. 11:26),

Hey Ron. Great video. My only caveat is the title - which I realize is intentionally provocative. I would contend that the NT, while written for Jews first (most of it, anyway).is also intended for Gentiles. As a Gentile believer, I am profoundly grateful for this amazing gift that God has given to us Gentiles, to extend salvation in Yeshua even to us. But- and I know this was your point - I am praying with you for the eyes of unbelieving Jews to be opened to the liberating truth of the Jewish Messiah who is revealed in this book.
