Jewish-Christian Dialogue
Then shall all those who fear the Lord speak, each to his neighbor, and the Lord shall listen and hear. It shall be written in a book of remembrance before Him, for those who fear the Lord and contemplate His name. (Mal. 3:16)

What to Avoid
1. Disputation occurs when the adherents of each tradition
assume that everything the other tradition asserts is denied by their own tradition
seeks a winner and a loser

2. Proselytization
occurs when the adherents of one tradition seek to persuade the adherents of the other tradition that they truly have what the others have been seeking all along.
The dialogue is an end in itself and not a means for some other agenda

3. Syncretism
attempt to construct a new religious reality out of elements of Judaism and Christianity
Both Judaism and Christianity are grounded in divine revelation

4. Relativism
occurs when we treat religion as a matter of private preference
it denies that some things are true all the time everywhere for everyone

5. Triumphalism
insists that final truth has already been been to my community alone

What to Seek Dialogue
1. Willing to see the other side in the best possible light from within their own tradition.
2. Each tradition must uphold what they teach separately as the truth.
