The reasons they choose are excuses.I thought an excellent topic for Apologetics is how to counter the reason the Jews reject Jesus. Form SIX REASONS WHY JEWS DON'T BELIEVE IN JESUS:
Reason #1 – The Messiah must be from the Tribe of Judah and a Descendant of King David AND King Solomon – Jesus did not qualify.Reason #2 – Ingathering of the Jewish Exiles – Jesus did not do this.Reason #3– Rebuilding of the Holy Temple – Jesus failed to achieve this.Reason #4– Worldwide Reign of Peace – Jesus did not accomplish this.Reason #5 – Observance of the Torah Embraced by All Jews – Jesus didn’t bring this about.Reason #6 – Universal Knowledge of G-d – Jesus clearly failed here also.I believe a bridge to fellowship begins by saying we can understand how they can look at it this way. However, there is another sense in which the story of Jesus qualifies as the true Jewish Messiah. Thoughts?
What greater evidence is there than rising from the dead.....and predicting to do so?
What greater excuse is there than a flat denial it occurred?
Here on in, the labyrinth of confusion and lies accelerates.........and there is no peace; there can be no peace!
