As a Christian, we have the responsibility of always being prepared to share and explain our faith to anyone at any given moment. If we are instructed to preach and teach the Good News…if GOD says the entire world must first learn about salvation through Messiah Christ Jesus before our Savior returns to earth… why do some of us find it necessary to exclude certain people from hearing our testimony and teachings?

This seems to usually happen when the issue of Judaism comes up. Why try to show the truth to Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists and everyone else under the sun, but then pussyfoot when it comes to sharing the truth with GOD’s first born (the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Israel)?

Yes, it can be a complicated matter sometimes. The Holy Bible says salvation is only through believing Jesus the Christ. Jesus himself said no one comes to the Father but through him. Does that mean GOD only listens to the prayers of Christians? Although one may deny Jesus the Christ is HIS only begotten son, and Jesus did say he who denies me denies the Father — it doesn’t change the fact that both Christians and Jews acknowledge and love the GOD of Abraham - GOD Almighty, the creator of all life. Christians just happen to take it a step further and acknowledge that one very much greater than Abraham has already come into the world to save it. And He said Himself, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”

So, our Jewish brothers and sisters may love the LORD our GOD with all their heart, soul and mind, but they are still wandering the desert…and will continue to wander the desert until they stop doubting and start believing. GOD Almighty is still asking ‘How long will these people reject ME? And how long will they not believe ME?” Judaism rejects GOD’s Son, Messiah Christ Jesus. Those who adhere to Judaism refuse to believe that GOD has already sent Israel and the Gentiles’ Saviour (who will return at some future appointed time).

Tip of the hat to this post on Jews for Jesus.
