	Well as i recall, Nicodemus (sp?) asked Jesus about salvation
and was told not that he needed to be a follower, but that he had
to be born-again. Nicodemus asked the obvious question, "How am I supposed
to do that, can I enter my mothers womb a second time?" Whereupon
Jesus simply said,"I tell you the true, you must be born again."

	Now whether Jews need Jesus depends on your interpretation of
'born-again'

	If, like me, you think that born again means, acknowledgement
of your sins and repention, realising Jesus as your saviour, then I would
say that the Jews do need Jesus.

	I believe it is Romans where we are told that,' We have ALL fallen
short of the glory of God.'

	Quite how this fits in with the 144,000 Jews in Revelation I am not
sure, comments anyone?
