Met a Jewish Girl

(1/1)

decimos:
In my travels as a multi media adviser,I met a Jewish girl of 18.I dont now how but I knew she was Jewish,at the end of the conversation I said I d like to go to Israel one day.The other girls present said, "Shes a Jew,are you?" "No." I replied I like to think im a Noahide.She looked at me and I said Shana Tova, she said it back to me.I then asked if she was observent? "no", she replied.I felt it was not my place to critisize,so I left it.She asked me what made me think I was a Noahide.I said, I believe that Noah passed to gentiles Gods wishes and that the Torah is true and there is only 1 god,Hashem.she looked at me like these were words she hasnt heard in awhile.I did say}rightly or wrongly}that Jews are LIght unto the Nations,she knew what i ment.to ease the situation i said that i didnt believe until i was 38.so she had plenty of time,but she should go see a Rabbi because her ppl have a special destiny.and i left it at that.

That's all you can do Decimos.

Just politely & subtley try and guide them in the right direction. we gentiles are in a pickle where sef-hating or non-observant Jews are concerned. It's not our place to preach to them but we can't leave them in the dark, either. ???

jdl4ever:
Actually a righteous Gentile can preach better to the self hating and non practicing Jews than we can, since they get very embarrassed when a Gentile tells them that he believes that the Torah is true and that the Jewish people are special, but they don't believe.
