Being a native New Yorker, I know you have to gain a New Yorker's trust before they will listen to you. These saints are brave and stout hearted! I often think about how hard it is for a Messianic Jew to talk about Jesus to a stranger. It is especially difficult to talk to a Jew about Him. Jews think Jews that believe Jesus to be the Messiah are traitors to the Jewish community. Orthodox Jews find it hard to believe the evidence that proves Jesus has to be the Messiah! Using intellect will never reveal spiritual truths! Scriptures must be examined with a dependence on God Himself to enlighten you.
There are many divine appointments met during these campaigns. When people walk away with a, "Don't bother me attitude!" they have been touched by Jesus Himself, and it wasn't a useless attempt! God is not willing that any should perish! This is probably not the first, nor will it be the last time this truth will be offered to those that reject it.
My brethren are doing an important work for the Kingdom of Heaven!
