Jewish Neighbor

We had a great opportunity to witness to this dear 92 year old Jewish lady named Sarah. Her son is Rosantal and is pointing to the 10 commandments posted on thier door post as the scripture commands them! The time spent with Sarah softened her heart a little and she promised to think about everything we said. After Alina shared with her, Karen, Ruth and I took our best shot at telling her about Jesus. She is very sharp mentally but in rough phyical condition. We gave her many things to think about.



Karen explaining Salvation to her. I really felt that God prepared her heart for this because she gave so many good words to help her explain the purpose of the Law and some examples from the Old Testament. We know that many were praying for this along with Lee, Ruth and I as she was talking to Sarah.





She just can't believe that Jesus was God and that he was the Messiah. We read Romans 10 to her and Isaiah 53. This proved to help a little. She was so tired when we left but promised to think about everything we said. I told her it would break my heart if I came to her funeral and knew that she had rejected Jesus as the Saviour. She needs our prayers. Rosental did seem to want to do a Bible Study with us though.
