Renowned Rabbi Uses Internet to Slam Jews for Jesus

- Radio Show Host/Rabbi Tovia Singer Fires Back at Missionaries Targeting

Jews for Conversion with Educational Audio Series Now Available Free Online

-

    NEW YORK, Jan. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Outreach Judaism, a leading counter-
 missionary organization based in New York today launched its new website,
 http://www.outreachjudaism.org, offering a free, exhaustive library of
 information regarding Jews for Jesus' multimillion dollar worldwide
 missionary campaigns, including a point-by-point audio response to their
 plans to convert Jews to Christianity.
     In the last year alone, Jews for Jesus engaged in a 65-city tour -- any
 city that has more than 25,000 Jews within it -- targeting the most
 vulnerable Jews for conversion: Jewish youth and the elderly. In an effort
 to combat this disturbing and aggressive assault on Jewish communities
 worldwide, Rabbi Tovia Singer, founder of Outreach Judaism and renowned
 radio show host on Israel National Radio, is now making available his
 notorious tape series, "Let's get Biblical(TM)" free to anyone seeking
 answers to questions posed by Christian missionaries who engage in
 evangelism targeting Jews.
     "Jews for Jesus has launched a deceptive campaign to convert the most
 susceptible segments of our community to their ranks," said Rabbi Singer.
 "In their unrelenting spiritual assault on Jewish communities in the US,
 Israel and Europe, Jews for Jesus deliberately blurs the distinctions
 between Judaism and Christianity in order to lure Jews who would otherwise
 resist a straightforward Christian message. Now, Jews worldwide finally
 have the answers to Jews for Jesus' claims at their fingertips."
     "Jews for Jesus has stated their staggering goals," stated Rabbi
 Singer. According to their marketing materials, Jews for Jesus exists, "To
 make the messiahship of Jesus an unavoidable issue to our Jewish people
 worldwide." Moreover, as part of their recent effort to convert the Jewish
 elderly in New York, Jews for Jesus distributed more than 80,000 copies of
 a conversionist film translated into Yiddish to homes in Brooklyn, Queens
 and Monsey, New York. Furthermore, Jews for Jesus is expanding its efforts
 to convert survivors of the Holocaust. The testimonials of those who
 managed to survive the Holocaust, yet became ensnared by the Baptist
 missionary group are broadcast on the Jews for Jesus website.
     "This spiritual war against the most vulnerable members of our
 community is deeply troubling, and cannot go unanswered," says Rabbi
 Singer. "Outreach Judaism, a leading counter-missionary organization based
 in New York, is responding to Jews for Jesus' unyielding assault upon the
 Jewish faith with point-by-point answers to their arguments. This is an
 all-out, no-holds-barred spiritual war instigated by Jews for Jesus that
 Outreach Judaism is responding to with an effective response.
