Preface
"... We have found him of whom Moses and the prophets wrote, Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth." (John 1:45)
In this rare book, the reader will see the amazing story of the conversion of a Jewish rabbi to Christ, which happened at the end of the last century in Greece, then continued in Constantinople and ended in a miraculous way in another place, which you will learn about at the end of the book.
It was revealed to the Apostle Paul, the great teacher of the Gentiles, that the falling away of Israel would take place before a certain time, and that before the end of the world God would again return the hearts of His elect, and they would know the Truth and come and worship His Crucified Son. In our last days, this prophecy is being fulfilled with our own eyes. In many countries, thousands, tens of thousands of Jews have already been baptized. In the countries of Europe, in America, as well as in Russia and Israel itself, a broad movement "Jews for Jesus"1 has developed, which calls for recognizing in Christ the Messiah who has already come. It is known that during the years of emigration more than fifty thousand Christians moved to Israel. In Russia, Georgia and America, dozens of Jews who have come to Christ have already become priests. All this suggests that God has looked upon the lost sheep of the House of Israel and is calling them to Himself. And this book, which you have opened, dear reader, can help all who are looking for the True God to find the Messiah, the Savior of the World, the very Jesus of Nazareth, whom Moses and the prophets predicted in the Law and the Psalms about Him. Throughout the Old Testament, God and His people of Israel have a promise of a Messiah who will not only restore the tribes of Jacob and restore the remnants of Israel, but will also be "the light of the nations and the salvation of God to the ends of the earth."
