Ruth Letter

The first letter I received... about a month ago

are you gonna write back? if so you should explain why Jewish theology makes it clear Jesus could not be the messiah, explain that there is nothing in Jewish theology about second comings or paying for the sins of others.
point out that Jesus told the disciples that he would come back before many of them had even died (Matthew 16:28, Luke 9:27, Luke 21:32, Mark 9:1), and that Paul thought Jesus' promised return was imminent (1Corinthians 7:29-31). the fact that Jesus could never have been the messiah according to Jewish theology, the theology on which the whole idea of the messiah is based, that there is no "second coming" anywhere in Jewish theology, and that Jesus himself told his disciples his return was to be before some of them had died, but that this never happened and still hasn't 2000 years later....
that would be a fun letter to send. :)
