As a Jew, Jenna's worldview is a religion called Judaism. Judaism is over 3500 years old and has approximately 15 million followers worldwide. It is one of the oldest religions on earth, and was started by the Biblical m an Moses when he gave them the law God revealed to him. Jenna believes that the God who created the world established a covenant (a binding agreement - sort of like a contract) with the Jewish people. She believes God revealed his laws and commandments to the Jews in what they call the Torah - which is the same as the first five books of the Bible (Genesis-Deuteronomy). Jenna is devoted to studying and obeying the laws and commandments written in the these books.

known as "Rambam" (who lived

over 1000 years ago) summed

up Judaism in 13 beliefs:

ascended up into heaven, and

•In John 1:29-30 it says - The day after, John

sees Jesus coming to him and says, See here is

the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the

world! This is he of whom I said, one is coming

after me who is put over me because he was in

existence before me. When in fact, Jesus and

MONTHS BEFORE JESUS!

and on earth and verse 17 he is before All

things and in him all things have being.

create man in “Our” image. It was Jesus

speaking the creation into existence.

•John 1:1 says in the beginning was the word

and the word was with God and the word was

God. The word was not only WITH GOD, but

the word WAS GOD!

How is the word of God a separate person from himself some ask? The bible says in Genesis 3:8 - And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. How can a voice walk? It’s because Jesus is the word of God as a person walking, talking, and living!

John 17:5 - And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

Being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross.

Mathew 1:23 - Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, God with us.

Mathew 16:15-17 - He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not manifest this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

1 John 1:1 - That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life and the life was made manifest, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifest to us); that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us.

1 Peter 1:18-20 - knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ; who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifest at the end of times for your sake

Jenna does not like to be stereotyped with others from her religion, so ask a ton of questions to learn where she is coming from like: Does she attend synagogue? What happens at Passover? Why doesn't she offer sacrifices today? How does God overlook her sin since the destruction

of the temple? What does she believe about the coming of Messiah? How will she recognize him when he comes?

Jenna has been raised with little knowledge about Jesus Christ, so when you feel it could be appropriate, talk about how Jesus literally and perfectly fulfilled over 300 prophecies made about the coming Messiah. Ask Jenna to read Isaiah 53 and ask her who she believes that Bible passage is describing. Here is a link that goes through all the prophecies:

Whenever possible, use Scripture to answer Jenna's questions. If you get asked something you don't know the answer to, ask Jenna for some time and then do some research.

Your main goal is not to persuade Jenna that Jesus is the Messiah - it is a means to an end, and that end is that she needs to see that she fails to keep God's Law. It is not good enough for her to do her best; God requires perfection, so you need to get Jenna to the point where she knows that God will not overlook her failures or forgive her on the basis of their mitzvot (good deeds). Show her that God requires the shedding of blood for the forgiveness of sin (Leviticus 17:11; cf. 16:15-17, 27, 30), which was why the Messiah (Jesus) came to earth 2000 years ago
