Another prayer request.

I have another prayer request. At the last Jewish fellowship meeting, I met a lady who was invited by Mira and who is not born again. We were going through the book of Jonah and almost every time Mira would ask a question Raisa (lady’s name) would have either a good answer or a comment. She seemed to know the Bible very well. However, after the Bible Study she began to share her testimony and her point of view. She said that at the most difficult time of her life she was looking for answers and because she is a Jew, she went to a synagogue. Listening to people praying, and crying in her heart out to God, she asked Him to help her in her trouble. Then she opened the Torah and the first thing she saw there, was a commandment for women to bring a sacrifice after childbirth. She begun to ask rabbis to help her to fulfill this commandment, but nobody could help her with it. Meanwhile she begun to read the Bible, recognizing that Jesus is playing an important part in history of Israel, but she believes that people – all those who believe in God, have to go back to the Mosaic system of worship and restore the tabernacle.
Raisa sent me several pages of her contemplations on this subject and she wants to know what I think. We begun a conversation while at Mira’s home, but did not finish it for the lack of time. I am not sure if Raisa really wants to know the truth or she is just truing to convert others in to her way of thinking. From the letter she addressed to me personally I begun to think the second. But the Lord knows and He put on my heart to take time and answer, I just really need His wisdom for that. Please pray for the answer I’ll write and for Raisa’s heart to be softened and to receive the truth and the freedom from the bondage of sin she’s been carrying all these years. Thank you! Natasha
