Rabbi O.

Could you please explain this message further, I think some of the
thoughts were cut off in mid sentence. One concern of mine is that this
message *suggests* that we are not to preach the Word of God, but instead
just keep silent and wait for sinners
to come and ask us.

I do not want to misinturpret you so please, for my sake, clarify
yourself as to exactly* what this message means- [how am I to conduct
myself] -

thank you for your time,
Rob Sutherland

******************************************

Shalom Rob,
I believe the last part of the message was...

Don't wear your faith in Yeshua on your sleeve for all to see,  let
His light shine from within you quietly,  lt's His job to draw all men
unto Him,  not yours .

I don't know if you get "Tree of Life" magazine from HaY'did (The
Friend) Ministries, Inc.  The latest issue featured an article that I
wrote on how not to evengelize the Jewish people.  My comments above were
in this vein.  If you don't subscribe,  I suggest  you contact HaY'did
via this outlet,  or perhaps they can contact you and tell you how you
can get a complimentary issue which has my article in it.

As for waiting for sinners to come to me,  I don't know who's a sinner
and who's  not, that's for G-d to judge.  If you read my article and
follow my  lead, then you'll have people come to you with questions
which will open a door for you to share your faith with an open
listenership instead of presenting it to a resistant audience.

In Him,
Rabbi O.
