Investing in Conversion

On a previous note, I tallied some of the monies spent by Messianic organizations to convert Jews. As an additional note, the Luthern Church, Missouri Synod (LCMS) has had a missionary group for a few decades to convert the Jewish people. They have even created a few Messianic congregations. The name of the group is Apple of His Eye Mission Society.

So, how serious is the LCMS at converting the Jewish people. Well, the Apple of His Eye annual budget is about $500,000. This is not a small sum! And when you realize they are not even as big of a player in the Messianic movement as other Christian denominations such as the Southern Baptist Convention and the Assemblies of God movement, it is astounding how much money Christians will invest to convert Jews!
