Christian fulfillment of the Great Commission following Jesus's and Paul's model prioritized gospel outreach to Jewish people. This study first analyzed biblical-theological literature, social science literature, and practical theology literature, seeking guidance for Jewish outreach ministry. Discovery of Jewish outreach patterns through the content analysis of thirty One For Israel Video Testimonials (OFIVT) bolstered this literature investigation. God's direct actions (63 percent), combined with Christian witness (33.9 percent) in the lives of Jewish people in OFIVT account for 96.6 percent of the salvific influences reported by those videoed human subjects. Personal interviews of thirty Messianic Jewish people and nine traditional Jewish people then sought reasons why Jewish human subjects either believe or do not believe in Jesus. Empirical evidence obtained from the Messianic Jewish interviews revealed that twenty- six of the thirty interviewees attributed their belief in Jesus to the witness of a Christian person, while sixteen of thirty interviewees additionally reported some sort of supernatural experience (visions, dreams, miracles, etc.) that put them on the path to Jesus, Israel's Messiah. Analysis of the nine traditional Jewish interviews suggested they believed there is no objective truth by which a person is saved. Further, all nine interviewees indicated lack of scriptural knowledge and hearing that the Messiah already came for Jewish people in Jesus. The study suggests a direct correlation between salvific Jewish outreach and Christian people, biblical knowledge, and obedience to the Great Commission (Matt. 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; Luke 24:47; Acts 1:8).
