The first time you heard of Jesus, did the person who shared Jesus with you, first go to the Jews?

    No....but some came at my door that did.

    The primary message was first to the house of Israel and then to the nations.

    While the nations are gathered the ingathering of the Jews still goes on.

    (Matthew 10:6) but instead, go continually to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

    The first person to try and convert me has me laughing at them. Seriously, they were so inept it was clear they had no knowledge of Judaism and were hopelessly trying to convince a Jew to convert to Christianity. At the time I was not religious and knew a fraction of what I know now- but they were so inept I was able to make them look foolish and leave me alone. Heh, later missionaries got it even worse as I learned more and more. 20 years ago a classmate at university was told by his pastor to stop trying to convert me and to not speak to me at all ince I was dangerous; seems he began asking questions his pastor couldn't answer from my answers to him. Nowadays he probably would have been told to leave me alone far earlier- I have learned a LOT on the intervening years!

    The person who first shared Jesus with me was a liar.

    As was the second, third and fourth person who told me about Jesus.

    But it didn't stop there. So many more liars chimed in

    answer: Probably and came up short with no answers and so moved onto non-Jews, just like your self proclaimed liar Paul

    Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
