Recently at a Bible Study I attended, a man and his wife who have made it their full time ministry witnessing to Jews shared with us a document titled "How to witness effectively to the Jewish people". I have included it below, as I found it particularly insightful.
Before you read the following document, understand the significance "The Book of Life" has in the understanding of righteousness and eternal life for the Jewish people.
One Transitional Question
"Has anyone ever taken the time to show you how you can have full assurance that your name can be written in the Book of Life?"
The Good News Message
Do you want to place your trust in Yeshua as your personal Messiah, Lord, & Savior?

HOW TO WITNESS EFFECTIVELY TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE*
Two Diagnostic Questions
- Do you have the assurance that your name is written in the "Book of Life?"
- If you were to die tonight, God forbid, and stood before God and He asked you, "Why should I write your name in the 'Book of Life?'" What would you answer?

The Good News Message
- MAN is a sinner (Isa 59:1-3) and he must repent (v. 20)!
- GOD is just and merciful (Exo 32:32-34; Exek.18:23).
- GRACE is an unmerited favor or gift (Exo. 33:19).
- YESHUA (Jesus) is the Messiah who suffered, died, shed His blood for our sins and was resurrected to show us how our names can be written in the Book of Life. (Isa 52:13-53:6, 10; Ps 16:9-11).
- FAITH is believing in and trusting in who Yeshua is and what He has done only for your salvation and forgiveness of your sin so your name can be written in the "Book of Life" (Ps 2:2, 7-12).
