"We Must Prepare Ourselves To Be Unblemished Sacrifices"
Since the last time that I wrote, much has happened. The world has almost turned up-side-down. Besides the war that we are having here in Eretz Yisroel, many other wars have begun and the world has become a much more dangerous and frightening place. One of the reasons that it is so frightening, besides the fact that these wars are cruel, shooting, killing wars, with blood flowing freely, besides that fact, what frightens us the most is that much of what is happening today simply doesn’t work according to a logical mind, a normal logical mind. Pieces are missing from the puzzle that should be evident. We don’t know who the good guy is. We don’t know who the bad guy is. We don’t know from one minute to the other who is on whose side. Suddenly there are certain things that are uncovered that we had no inkling had ever been in existence, and they tell us in the highest places with the most knowledgeable of people so-to-speak that it has been there for the last ten, twenty, fifty years festering and growing and becoming monstrosities, and we scratch our heads and say how in the world did that happen. How did it become so bad? How come it came upon us in such a sudden way? How come no one knew, and if they knew, how come no one did anything?
We trust the governments to make sure that all our medications are not dangerous to us. We trust the courts that they will give everybody a fair shake so-to-speak. We trust the doctors that they will give us the right diagnosis. We trust the economists that tell us that things are looking up financially, or they give us advice how to invest. We trust all the different aspects of the Egel Hazahav, but we don’t trust the Truth. The Truth is Hakodosh Boruch Hu, and we trust man more than the Truth with a capital T. I know that we are coming very close to Moshiach. I know that we’re soon going to throw off the bonds of this terrible Golus. I know that only those who recognize Truth, with a capital T will ever be able to live in a world of the Truth with a capital T, and therefore I want to explain to you that things look jumbled and not logical because it’s not the Truth. It’s not the way the world was created.
What is happening today, it’s going against the Truth. Its degenerate, and its pulling us into a degenerate mode, and its taking over the whole world, and we have to resist. The only way to stop it is to recognize that something is very wrong here and we’re hanging on to the wrong lifesaver for dear life. We think we have a rubber tube to float on the water and be saved, but we don’t. It’s full of lead and it’s going to bring us down to the bottom of the sea, Chas Vesholom. What does Hashem want from us? How can we survive this terrible calamity, this evilness that has oozed out from every corner of the world that nobody realized existed in such a tremendous force? How can we survive all this? Who are we, only puny people without any strength. How can we survive this terrible, terrible flood of degeneracy? There is only one way. We have to prepare ourselves.
We have to prepare ourselves now to greet Moshiach. We have to prepare ourselves to be perfect sacrifices, and yes I did say Korbanos Shleimos, and we have to be Shaleim, Shaleim or at least try very hard to be Shalem. If we don’t get to Shleimus, Hashem will make the Shleimus, but it will be so difficult and so hard, and cause us much pain, no less pain than an operation, only it will be a spiritual operation which can be much more painful than a physical operation. There’s no anesthetic for this kind of operation, and we’ll feel every single pain, so we must prepare ourselves to be Korbanos to be as pure as possible. Don’t get too frightened. I don’t mean that we’re all going to die Al Kiddush Hashem. I mean that Hashem wants us to live Al Kiddush Hashem, and He wants us to be as perfect as possible, and the way to become as perfect as possible is to trust Hashem completely. Trust everything He demands from us. Do not question one thing that He demands from us. We want to do His complete Ratzon. I’m not saying that we will be able to get to that high level, but we have to make a really, really good try for it. We have to really, really put our minds, hearts, and soul, and our bodies into this great endeavor, probably the greatest endeavor ever.
Yitzchok Avinu was a perfect Korbon. He was a Korbon Shaleim. His father was ready to listen to Hakodosh Boruch Hu and sacrifice his only son. The only son that could continue and become the father of Am Yisroel, one of the fathers. Only Yitzchok could do that. He was willing to die because Hashem said so. That is the kind of Bitachon we have to have. In the end it was enough that Yitzchok allowed himself to be tied onto the Mizbayach so that he wouldn’t squirm when the knife came to his throat. He put his throat out so it would be easier for his father when he had to do the Shechting, and he was happy to do Hashem’s will, and Avraham Avinu didn’t hesitate once to Shecht his only son, because Hakodosh Boruch Hu wanted it, and he knew that everything that Hakodosh Boruch Hu does is for our good. He also knew that nothing that we have, nothing that we think we own, no child of ours is really ours. Nothing is ours. Everything is His, and we too are His, and that’s the way you achieve Shleimus.
You have to be sure in every way that Hashem is Hakol Yachol and whatever He does is absolutely perfect for us, and will be the best thing for us no matter how much it makes us suffer, because our suffering is only an illusion. It’s from our twisted desires and we have to realize that this world is only a very short visit for us, and then we go to the next world. But now we won’t go to the next world. Im Yirtzeh Hashem, we’ll go straight to Olam Habah of Moshiach.
So now my dear Yidden, be strong. It’s time to change. It’s time to take account of our lives, each part of our lives, and try to be much better because if we don’t do this we’re going to be in big trouble. I beg you, make an accounting. Balance your checkbook with Hashem. Find what you owe Him, and find what you think He owes you, and I‘m sure that we all will find that we are deeply, deeply in debt, and that we need to show Hashem how we love and trust Him, how we will do anything in the world that He asks us, even if it means our lives. That’s what we have to show Him. We are going to be called upon as Jews to be tested in the most difficult ways, and we must be close to Him. We must take out of ourselves all the superficial nonsense of this world of lies, of this world of Egel Hazahav, of this world of illusions and come to the truth. Its very frightening because all of your, what you call regular lives, is going to be totally, totally different. You’re going to have to give up things that have become out of disproportionately important to you, and you’re going to have to take from your heart all the petty nonsense that you so come to depend on to help you pass time in a superficial way. You are going to have to deal with the truth. It’s very frightening, and our lives will change. The great wealth that this so-called western world has known is going to vanish. It’s going to be gone. We are going to have to learn to live in a much more simple way, and that will help us become closer to Hashem. It is happening now already, and World War Three has begun already, and I think we can all see it, and it is going to spread. It’s going to become a great, great war, a great and frightening war, and I know that all true Jews will know that what I am saying now is true. Prepare yourselves my dear Jews, my dear Yidden. Hashem loves you and wants you back wants you back with Him. This is a lowly generation but the Jewish heart and soul is still here and on that Jewish heart and soul of every single Yid will be built Olam Habah of Moshiach.
Q: Why don’t you sleep at night?
A: I don’t sleep at night because I know that in the not so far future we’re really going to have to trust Hashem. We are going to realize that food and clothing and shelter will not be forthcoming so easily at all, and we will have to trust Hashem. When I say we I’m talking about the whole world. I’m talking about every single person in the world except those few who think that they can rule instead of Hashem, Chas Veshololm, but we will be the winners because in the end Hashem will banish them into nonexistence and we will get all the benefits. We will not starve to death and we will not be out in the cold if we trust in Hashem, if we trust the fact that He is Hakol Yachol.
That’s why I cry, because I know it’s going to be very hard for many Yidden, and by the way do you realize how much of the world is going to be destroyed, Hashem Yishmor? It is said so clearly in the Nevuas. Do you realize what a shock that is? I don’t think there will be any CNN around to be able to photograph it, but what can I tell you? Just thinking about the shock of it is enough to make me cry, cry for Am Yisroel, cry for the whole world. The Reshaim are playing their sinister games of murder and bloodshed. They are such foolish people especially the Goyim the Jews are also being foolish because we are not coming close to the Truth, to Hakodosh Boruch Hu. We have made our whole lives superficial Yiddishkeit and all I can do is cry over it. We have split up into millions of factions instead of being one with Hashem, but Hashem will teach us. He loves us. He wants to save us, but we’re making it very hard on ourselves.
Just remember that according to many great Torah sources most of the Jews of this generation, the generation just before the Geula Sheleima, will be Erev Rav. They can be Frum or secular but not true Jews and they will try to pull us away from the Truth.
Yes my crying has to do with Am Yisroel. I’m so worried. It’s not so simple. We have to be strong and we have to be without blemish.

The Coming World Religion - Part 3
Suddenly, it all makes sense; as if we had an out of focus picture which just came into clear view. Now we know why the UN, the EU, and the US are all so hell-bent on "making peace" here. Now, we can understand why the world has never pressured the Arabs to resettle the "refugees' and why they insist on a "Two-State" solution; why UNRWA schools teach Jew/Israel hatred and harbor terrorists; why they all get so upset at every new building tender in "East Jerusalem" and the "West Bank." (And why our "hasbara" doesn't make a difference.)
Now, we know why the Russian goyim were brought in and the African "refugees" and why the chareidim must go into the army and be integrated into the workforce and why the conversion and marriage laws must be changed. Also, why missionaries are allowed to run rampant as well as all the other damage that democratic laws and western culture are inflicting on the Jewish psyche and neshamah.
Now, we see that we were never supposed to even get this state. Those who survived the Holocaust were supposed to want nothing more than to disappear into the gentile scenery - to blame HKB"H and turn their backs on Judaism and assimilate among the goyim. The globalists have been trying in every way they can think of to turn the State's apparatus against us - to do the job for them - and hence we have intermarriage and assimilation and soon fake marriages and conversions (courtesy of the State) in Israel! in order to destroy the Jewish people from within. The Erev Rav have served their masters well, thinking that they will be preserved as their reward. It's almost laughable.
And people everywhere are primed for it. The New Age has made deep inroads into the hearts and minds of our people already, especially through the so-called "alternate streams" of Judaism. Those people are already so far gone, I don't know if there is any hope for them. And, in Israel, the seculars are just as badly infected with this soul sickness. Listen to what happened to Rabbi Mizrachi...
And then, there is this article which arrived in my inbox (h/t Yeranen Yaakov)...
The Only Jewish Boy at Jewish Day School
(The article and the comments are quite instructive.)
And then, something else arrived via Geula Girl...
Call for Establishing,A Universal New Israel
We call upon all people, of all religions, cultures and nations worldwide who would love to be counted as “Israelites” (“The Righteous People of God”) to come forth to re-establish the Universal, Holistic Israel, with its full constituency of 12 Nations (or "Tribes").
To form a global unified (12-fold) Messianic Body that aims to fulfill the Biblical Plan for Global Redemption. This was the plan of the Biblical patriarchs and prophets – including the “genuine Jesus”....
The need to create a novel Universal Zionism that is not exclusively Jewish. (The Xian-Zionists will fit right in.)
Goals:
To heal the roots of the Jewish-Christian Schism, as well as the Muslim-Christian and Muslim-Jewish schisms.
To develop the universal 12-Tribe structure of Knesset Yisrael - the Holystic (whole/holist) Israel. Untie the exclusiveness of Judaism and Zionism to make Judah a blessing for his brothers (Gen. 49:8).Like the Rabbi Mizrachi video clip, I'm afraid we all might be very shocked to find out how many "Orthodox" Jews, let alone secular or others, would think this is a fine idea. They might even be ready to assist with the implementation. There are books by well-known rabbis, right here in Jerusalem, who are promoting such ideas under the guise of enlightened Torah!
To establish at the center of the Earth's continents, in Jerusalem, a House of Prayer and moral-spiritual Ascent for all Nations and for disseminating the Universal teachings.
The Plan must be getting close to its launch date, considering the activity, ...
Pope Francis And The Emerging One World Religion
Is a Jesuit Good for the Jews?
Pope Francis And Shimon Peres Discuss The Establishment of A ‘United Nations Of Religions’
Peres, the pope and a plan for world peace
Shimon Peres, a patriarch of today’s Israel, wants to leave a legacy. Most in this mode aim for things like monuments, memoirs and money. Peres’s aim is world peace. And in his opinion, Pope Francis, a man he calls “Holy Father,” is the one to make it happen. Vatican spokesmen concur, as does Italy’s representative for Islam, who “fully agrees.”
...On September 4, 2014, he was granted an impressive 45-minute meeting with Catholicism’s popular pontiff, a man Peres asserts is more powerful than the United Nations for advocating peace.
In an exclusive interview with the Catholic periodical, Famiglia Cristiana (The Christian Family), Peres divulged his plans: “Perhaps for the first time in history, the Holy Father is a leader not only respected by many people, but also by different religions and their leaders.”
“In fact,” Peres clarified, “he is perhaps the only truly respected leader” in the world today.
While Francis has refrained from commenting on Peres’s assessment, that same silence permits it. It also permits the framework of Peres’s idea to be tested in the crucible of world opinion.
“The United Nations has had its day,” Peres opined. “What we need is an organization of United Religions, a United Nations of religions.”As has always been the case, the only defense and weapon we have is Torah and Tefillah. Torah is our Sword of Truth and Tefillah is our Shield. We'd better make sure we and our families and friends know how to use them. And be prepared for anything.

The Coming World Religion - Part 2
15 Elul 5774
A reader has referred me to the following book which provides useful information for understanding and identifying what's coming...
The Rainbow Swastika - A report to the Jewish people about New Age antisemitism. Welcome to one Jew's analysis of a kinder, gentler Final Solution.
(Excerpt from the Introduction)
...The premises of New Age, sometimes called the New World Order, are most clearly mapped out in a religious society called Theosophy (founded 1875 by Helena Blavatsky), which coined many of the "code words" found in this material and which remains a prime source for piecing together New Age foundations. Most if not all of New Age concepts predate Theosophy, as its founder freely admitted. They borrowed heavily from classical Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism, with large doses of Gnosticism, astrology and other occultic power-quests. So despite the name "New" Age, we are surveying an ancient system of worship, found in various forms around the world (Babylonian, Egyptian, Norse, Atlantian, Pan/animist, American Indian, and other religions dependent on empowerment from various spirit-guides). This is why New Age teaching is so easily adapted to so many cultures. Alice Bailey, the next major New Age leader, "channeled" the extensive directives for the framework of the New Age -- what she called the New World Order -- and fully subscribed to Theosophy as well.
(Excerpts from Human History According to the New Age)
...The term "New Age" refers to the (astrological) Age of Aquarius which is about to begin, as soon as there is a "critical mass" of "initiates" or enlightened ones ready to make this leap to the next subrace.
... The "old age" being replaced is named by Alice Bailey as the "Age of Pisces", which ushered in the "Christian dispensation". Conservative Christians are creating an obstacle to mankind reaching this critical mass, since they are unreasonably attached to their old dispensation, and their influence must be neutralized. The Jews, who refused even to leave their "Age of Aries" (the time of the Torah) to enter the Age of Pisces, (to merge with Christianity) are doubly behind in their evolutionary development (Bailey, _Reappearance of the Christ_, p.81) - and as a result, double trouble is caused by the lingering influence the Jewish religion has on society. [Enacting a solution to this is central to the New Age Plan]
...A necessary preparation for the leap upward is the isolation, refinement and preservation of the top 10% of humanity as the new "seed". The major New Age efforts at indoctrination are therefore designed to get the other 90% of humanity to accept this elitist selection as necessary and just, and if possible to secure their cooperation in the purge.
...High on the list of those 90% which must be eliminated are the Jews who insist on Jewish identity: "When humanity has solved the Jewish problem (with the understanding and cooperation of the Jew)... it will do so by fusing the problem in one vast humanitarian situation. When that happens [the dissolution of the "Jewish race"], the problem [the presence of "separation" and "hate" in the world] will be rapidly solved and one of the major difficulties will disappear off the face of the earth. Racial fusion will then be possible... and then there will be peace on earth." (Alice Bailey, _Externalisation_ II, p.77) In other words, the entire fusion process which is to further human evolution is on hold until the Jews disappear as a group. She named this as one of four major "world problems" that must be solved within "the next two centuries" (the other three are humanity's attachment to old-age notions of national territory, sex and death). When Jews forget that they are Jews, "we shall see a very different world." (_The Destiny of Nations_ p.34-35)
And what of Jews who have concluded that their offense to humanity is simply the ancient Jewish religion? Their solution is to exchange the Sinai-covenant-based identity for one based on the Holocaust legacy, or Zionism, or Jewish culture and ethics, in the conviction that the "family of man" will have no objection to a non-religious Jewishness. [Such "progressive Jews" are advised to wake up and smell the coffee: each one of these substitute identity-anchors is being attacked today with the same vigor, and with the same objections, as the "outmoded" religion they discarded. It is clear that NO basis for Jewish consciousness will be allowed in the New Humanity - religious or secular. ...Actually, the possibility of a secular Jewish identity independent of the Jewish religion is debated among Jews, but not among New Age philosophers. Bailey distinguishes between two subgroups, "the Jews and the narrow-minded religious devotees", acknowledging that secular and religious Jews have different reasons for "regard[ing] themselves as the Chosen People"; yet she concludes: "The world problem [of Jewish identity] is essentially a religious problem." (_The Destiny..._ p.35) We may logically conclude that for Bailey disciples, any kind of Jewish identity whatsoever will be considered a religious obstacle to human evolution, a matter to be resolved in the planned global purge.
(Excerpts from Gods of the New Age)
Lucifer is personally in charge of human evolution. As such, he presides over the coming "planetary initiation", the ultimate goal in the New Age "Plan".
(Excerpts from Views on Jews and Judaism)
...New Agers sincerely do not consider themselves antisemitic, since in their view this means hatred of the Jews. They do not hate the Jews any more than we would hate someone who is severely deformed or mentally deranged. It's just that one doesn't allow the spiritually unbalanced to assume leadership, or to run about unrestrained, damaging the spiritual potential of those around them - especially if they can be sent to a "better place" where they will get help and be happier.
The "Jewish Force"
In addition to the Big Three Energy Forces which comprise the Logos, Bailey notes a powerful fourth Energy working alongside them, but not in cooperation: "The Jewish Force". (_Externalisation_ II, p.89) Although discussed as an impersonal energy source, the fact that "It" is ranked equal with the Logos implies that, like the Logos, there is a Personality or "Manifestation" by which this Force relates to humanity - the G-d revered by the Jews. ...the Jews "wield most potently that peculiar concretisation of energy which we call money. They constitute, in a strange manner, a unique and distinctly separated world center of energy." (p.76) In this way, the "sin" of "separateness" is viewed by New Age as originating with the Jews and afflicting them in a unique way, akin to an "original sin" which they are born with. [This is important to remember in decoding a favorite mantra in New Age circles, eliminating "separatism" in the world. While the masses think of an abstract concept or behavior, the enlightened ones focus on the Jewish race as "constituting" a "world center" of Separatism - the sin personified.]
...We are told that the "Jewish problem... is so old and so well known" that the Masters find it difficult to express it in a way "that will not arouse in the Jewish reader above all an undesirable reaction." Nevertheless, for the next ten pages they (dictating to Bailey) proceed to list the many faults of the Jews "in a spirit of love". (_Problems of Humanity_ IV, p.96-106)
Since Jews typically identify "antisemitism" with "hatred", the New Age can thus claim to be on high moral ground - the Jews are not hated. They are simply recognized as a problem to be solved in a loving way. Bailey elsewhere comments that "Jews frequently lower the atmosphere of any district in which they reside." This too she insists is not an antisemitic statement but simply "an absolute truth". (_Unfinished Autobiography_) Moreover, she does not claim credit for this idea; the Hierarchy related to her in vivid detail why the Jews do this, and how they can rectify it.
The "Jewish Problem" and its Effects
In outlining the four world problems which must be solved as the New Age begins, the "Masters" had the most to say about Number Four, the "problem of the Jews." After analyzing the influence of the "Rays" on the Jews, they explain: "The Jew, with his emphasis upon his position as one of the 'chosen people,' has stood symbolically throughout the centuries as the representative of the wandering, incarnating soul, but the Jewish people have never reognized the symbolic mission with which their race was entrusted, and they have taken to themselves the glory and the honor of the Lord's elect. The Jew made this mistake and, as an Oriental race, the Jews have failed to hold before the Orient the divine nature of mankind as a whole, for all are equally divine and all are the Lord's elect." (_The Destiny of Nations - The Influence of the Rays Today_, p.34) Translated from mysticalese, this means that the Jews were originally taught the concept of chosenness symbolically, in order to teach it to all of Humanity; they somehow misunderstood it as literally applying to themselves. The idea of "bnai ha'brit", the Jewish people being recipients of a Covenant made with the most high G-d at Sinai, is considered a fabrication from beginning to end.
The "Jewish Problem" Expressed as Zionism
If Jewish religion (covenant-based identification) is evil, then Zionism, or identification with Israel, the ancient Land promised through covenant, is doubly evil. [Combine the two into the religious Zionist, and we have manifold evil! This implies that the Israeli settlers, so thoroughly group-bashed by global media for vague "crimes against humanity", are being viewed as transgressors on levels that go beyond political correctness.] The Holocaust, which justified a Jewish homeland in the eyes of the world, for Alice Bailey only had the unfortunate effect of bringing the Jews "under the control of a glamour" which encouraged them to expect a land of their own. She categorically states, "Today the Jewish people are engineering trouble.... They are claiming a land to which they have no possible right." Moreover, the motive was "greed and not any love of Palestine behind it." (emphasis hers) [Although I have to admit, showing "greed" for sand, rocks and swamp which didn't interest anyone else indicates a rather deficient understanding on the part of those said to be human symbols of "greed and selfishness".] And not only that, but "the Zionists prevented the displaced Jewish persons (only 20% of the whole) from discovering how welcome they are in many countries throughout the world." (_Externalisation_ IV, p.615) [The Evian Conference, which a few years earlier made it quite clear "how welcome" the Jews were, must have escaped the notice of the "Masters". These Wise Ones also forgot all about "the problem of WHY the many nations, from the time of the Egyptians, have neither liked nor wanted them."
Bailey (more accurately, the Hierarchy) was horrified when the State of Israel was actually established, blaming the American Jews for coercing the UN into this "mistake". In fact, the Zionists single-handedly "lowered the prestige" of the United Nations and "made its position both negative and negligible to the world." (_Rays and Initiations_, p.681)
...All in all, Bailey knew that the specter of Zionism filled all New Age disciples with "a deep discouragement and a sense of futility and hopelessness." Nevertheless, they must make "the effort to expose the truth and clarify the problems which must be solved. The opposing forces of entrenched evil must be routed before He for Whom all men wait, the Christ, can come." (p.615-616) [Here we understand by implication that Maitreya can only come to a post-Zionist world in which the nation of Israel has been in some way neutralized, either politically impotent by UN occupation or spiritually impotent by total conversion to the New Age mentality. There are now pressures on both of these fronts: witness the increasing calls for international intervention in the Palestinian war on Israel, as well as the intense New Age misionary efforts underway in Israeli society. At any rate, it is in preparation for the coming of Maitreya that the UN has steadfastly barred Israel from any meaningful activity in that world forum which is to be the mouthpiece of the Hierarchy. And by the way, don't be fooled by the brief fanfare surrounding Israel's recent "admission" to one of the UN Regional Groups - it was a hollow charade, probably enacted to defuse annoying public pressure.]
The "Jewish Problem" as Racially Inevitable
But we are not to think that only religious Jews and Zionists are the evil separatists. After Bailey identifies the "Jewish people" as a problem, she [or the "Tibetan Master"] hastens to add, "What I say here has no specific reference to any individual; I am considering the world problem, centering around the Jews as a whole." (_Externalisation_ II, p.74, emphasis mine) By calling it a "world problem" she means that (a) the Jews' unique and collective "racial karma" ... will trouble the entire world until the race itself disappears; and (b) it is in the world's interest to put an end to the separate and distinct identity which Jewish people cherish.
The Hierarchy's Solution for the "Problem"
Bailey earnestly insists: "There has never been a time when the Gentile world has been more keen to do what is right by the Jew or more anxious to solve his problem and make restitution for all he has suffered." (_Humanity_, p.105) So what does the New Age expect from today's Jews? "Changed inner attitudes are needed on both sides, but very largely on the side of the Jews." ... "Release from the present situation [will only be achieved] when the Jew forgets that he is a Jew." (_Externalisation_ p.267, emphasis mine)
Judaism is Evil
The "Tibetan Master" minces no words: "[I have sought] to indicate the evils of Judaism. The present world faiths must return to their early simplicity, and orthodox Judaism, with its deep seated hate, must slowly disappear; all must be changed in preparation for the revelation which Christ ... will bring." (_Externalisation_ IV, p.543)
The Coming of the Messiah
In orthodox Judaism, the arrival of G-d's designated king and Torah teacher par excellence; a direct descendent of King David who will rule Israel and the nations in righteousness from Jerusalem. ...Must be redefined as the appearance of Maitreya the Christ ...who will overshadow a human host (most emphatically not a Jew this time); as the "World Teacher" and "the Head of all religions of the world" (by which time Judaism will no longer be recognized as a religion); he will restore the ancient Mysteries beginning with a Luciferic Initiation; mankind will be prepared for his coming by Master Jesus and others who will direct their disciples (including "the Church") to follow him. "A great deal of reactionary stupidity will have to be eliminated before He can come... as the new generation assert their hold over human thinking." (_Externalisation_, p.576)
The Serpent in the Garden
In the Jewish Bible, the creature who sabotaged man's Paradise by tempting Eve to transgress G-d's command; he was justly punished for his act, as were Adam and Eve for their disobedience. ...Must be redefined as the heroic Lucifer who offered godhood to mankind in the Lemurian age; their acceptance was not a "fall" but an "ascension". The Jews hopelessly muddled the story and transmitted it as the first sin, while the Christians used the Jewish story to portray man as sinful and unworthy; both versions short-circuit the path to godhood and slander the "God of Humanity".
Atoning for Sins
In the Jewish Bible, requires a substitute sacrifice specified by G-d to be offered by the sinner, who has already renounced his/her deed and made whatever restitution was possible; in post-Temple orthodox Judaism, the sacrifice was dropped out of necessity, but is mentioned in penitential prayers as a memorial before G-d and as a practice to be reinstated. ...Must be redefined as service in order to pay off karmic debt, often extending into future reincarnations; no substitute can be accepted under any circumstances, and no sin can be "forgiven" by simply repenting from it.

I think you get the idea. There's lots more than you can access via the link at the beginning. That's all I can manage right now.
Review what the autistic kids have said on this subject:
Here... But now, since beginning the last 100 years, the world is being ruled by gentiles and Jews, big evildoers, idolaters, the richest, who want first and foremost to finish off all the real-Jews, because they, the real ones, will not allow those who are attached to the lie of the Golden Calf, the snake, the Satan, will not permit the evildoers, those who will take off even 'ki hu zeh' from the Jewish religion, the life of Torah, and mitzvot, and good deeds, the life of love for HKB"H.
Therefore, Hitler, who was one of the guys in the group, tried to destroy and annihilate the Jews completely from the world and he failed. Indeed, there are enough antisemites left, even great ones, but he won't succeed. There has arisen today a group that is again trying to destroy us, and they belong directly to the snake, they belong to Edom, they belong to the Satan himself. And again the same war. But, on a larger scale. Very. And this time it will be the final decision! Hashem will slaughter the Satan, the evil inclination, and we will go out free men and we will be few, but upon them will be built the next world. Without memory of the evil inclination, without any memory of the Satan, without memory of all the evildoers who were born from it.
And here... It's a plan so sophisticated, so amazing, I'm also using this word, which it doesn't appear that they can carry it out at all! But, Hashem will allow them, by a miracle, to carry it out.
You should understand that they've already been planning these things for at least two hundred years! That is to say that several generations of these contemptible ones have passed, from generation to generation they transfer the desire, their aim. And a man who knows that he won't see it in his lifetime - and nevertheless, he is ready to work toward it til the end of his life and pass the baton to someone else to continue! These are from the top - it's certainly not from father to son, because they're not getting married... But, it's passed to another contemptible one, another contemptible one who is younger...
...They really sacrifice their lives to the Satan, like you're saying, and in general, as we see, sacrificing also other people to the Satan...

Alice Bailey (1880 - 1949)
I first heard about Alice Bailey in connection with the New Age Movement back in the early eighties. At first, I wondered about their expectation of the arrival of a New Age Messiah, but later I wrote it all off in my mind and got back to life.
Now, all these year later, with the autistics saying that there is going to be an attempt to unite the world under one false religion right before Mashiach comes, I have to wonder.
This was all brought back to mind with that video that I recommended yesterday: The Jesuit Agenda for a One World Religion UN New Age Movement
In case, you did not have the time to sit through the whole thing, here are the most pertinent parts. They are excerpts from the writings of Alice Bailey...
Pay close attention, now. I think you will find this both enlightening and a bit shocking, as I did. The views expressed are attributed not to Alice Bailey herself but to an "Ascended Master of Wisdom," the so-called "Tibetan" who channeled his messages using her as a conduit.*

Alice Bailey (1880 - 1949)

Now, all these year later, with the autistics saying that there is going to be an attempt to unite the world under one false religion right before Mashiach comes, I have to wonder.
This was all brought back to mind with that video that I recommended yesterday: The Jesuit Agenda for a One World Religion UN New Age Movement
In case, you did not have the time to sit through the whole thing, here are the most pertinent parts. They are excerpts from the writings of Alice Bailey...
"I dedicate myself anew to the coming one and will do all I can to prepare men's minds and hearts for that event."
"The Christ works for all men irrespective of their faith. He does not belong to the Xian world any more than he does to the Buddhist or the Mohammedan or any other faith. There is no need for any man to join the Xian church in order to be affiliated with Christ. The requirements are to love your fellowmen, lead a disciplined life, recognize the Divinity in all faiths and all beings and rule your daily life with love."
"First of all, he will come to a world which is essentially one world."
"The major effect of his appearance will surely be to demonstrate in every land the effects of a spirit of inclusiveness - an inclusiveness which will be channeled or expressed through him. All who seek right human relations will be gathered automatically to him, whether they are in one of the world's great religions or not. ...all who see no true or basic difference between religion and religion or between man and man or nation and nation will rally around him."
"Those who embody the spirit of exclusiveness or separateness will stand automatically and equally revealed and all men will know them for what they are."
"There will not be any dissociation between the universal church, the sacred lodge of all true masons and the inner circles of the esoteric societies.... In this way, the goals and work of the United Nations shall be solidified and a new church of God, led by all the religions and by all the spiritual groups, shall put an end to the great heresy of separateness."I think it is important to keep in mind that the globalists are essentially Westerners. They are the end of Galut Rome and so their new world religion will likely emanate from Papal Xianity. (More on that later, iy"H.) Furthermore, we already see that this "spirit of "inclusiveness" is already running rampant throughout the Western world.
(Wikipedia) Bailey taught a form of universal spirituality that transcended denominational identification, believing that, "Every class of human beings is a group of brothers. Catholics, Jews, Gentiles, occidentals and orientals are all the sons of God." She stated that all religions originate from the same spiritual source, and that humanity will eventually come to realize this, and as they do so, the result will be the emergence of a universal world religion and a "new world order".This is just a glimpse into the mindset of one who propounded a one world religion for a new world order and whose writings are taken very seriously by those who continue to support this idea. So, let's look a bit more into what she had to say specifically about "the role of the Jewish people in the divine Plan for our world."
Pay close attention, now. I think you will find this both enlightening and a bit shocking, as I did. The views expressed are attributed not to Alice Bailey herself but to an "Ascended Master of Wisdom," the so-called "Tibetan" who channeled his messages using her as a conduit.*
The books that the Tibetan wrote with the cooperation of Alice Bailey between 1919-1949 were intended to be the intermediate phase of a three-part release of the Ageless Wisdom planned by the Hierarchy to precede and condition the New Age, the Aquarian age. As we look at the world scene, we can see the enormous significance of the role played by the Jewish people and the State of Israel particularly in the last one hundred years. This may explain, in part, why the Tibetan focused such special attention on the Jews. Because the establishing of right relationships between all aspects of our planetary life is the goal of the Plan, this makes the achieving of a just and lasting peace in the Middle East—the pivotal point for so much of the world’s conflict today—essential.
...Many people of goodwill are working diligently to find a solution. However, the unique aspect of esoteric teaching is that it challenges the student to penetrate to the causal level of all human problems, where the spiritual origins of the problems can be identified and lasting solutions can be precipitated into human consciousness. Perhaps that is why the Tibetan was unstinting in his criticism of Zionism, which sought to solve the problem of the stigmatisation of the Jewish people by giving them their own homeland rather than working for their integration into existing nations.
...Through the Jewish people throughout the world, feeling—sympathetic or antagonistic, expressive of love or conditioned by hate—is being gathered to a focus in the planetary solar plexus centre, preparatory to a great and permanent change. It is for this reason that I have said to some of my pupils that when humanity will have solved correctly the Jewish problem, and when it has been resolved in a humanitarian and sound manner, then the energy of the planetary solar plexus centre will have been raised to the heart and a great transmutation will have taken place." (The Externalisation of the Hierarchy, p. 87).
We would stress the Tibetan’s statement, "Through the Jewish people throughout the world, feeling…is being gathered…". This implies that the feeling nature of all human beings, not just those currently incarnated in Jewish bodies, is being stimulated through their reaction to the problems centred in the situation of the Jews. We have all had a hand in the creation of this problem over the millennia, and it is up to all people of goodwill to solve it by right thinking, loving attitudes, and an unwavering identification with the fact of the one humanity.
Another point of concern for many is the Tibetan’s unwavering opposition to Zionism. He believed that the Jewish problem could be solved only by their integration into the world’s nations, not by setting the Jews further apart in a separate nation. However, almost all the writing that developed from his collaboration with Alice Bailey was completed before the state of Israel was founded in 1948, and Israel has been a reality for sixty years. The situation is not helped by critical, hateful thinking towards either the Israeli citizens or their neighbours. Rather, all people of goodwill are obligated to bring loving understanding and compassion to all affected by the suffering resulting from the long-standing conflict in the Middle East. All who espouse spiritual values must approach the situation of the Middle East with a realistic appraisal of present circumstances and a focus on creative change leading to better conditions for all concerned. It is a difficult challenge but not an impossible one. And it is worth every ounce of effort we can bring to bear upon a just resolution, for "When humanity has solved the Jewish problem (with the understanding cooperation of the Jew) and overcome ancient antipathies and hatreds, it will do so by fusing the problem in one vast humanitarian situation" (The Externalisation of the Hierarchy, p. 77).
Under the divine Plan for our world, humanity is left free to work out its own destiny. To quote the Tibetan a final time: "The Jewish race is a symbol of humanity in its mass sense; in the resolution of its conflict and in the taking of right action, a great step forward in human liberation will take place" (The Rays and the Initiations, p. 640).

Order Out of Chaos
14 Elul 5774
This may be the most important blog post I have ever written. Please pay close attention.
...בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ:וְהָאָרֶץ הָיְתָה תֹהוּ וָבֹהוּ
"At the first, Elokim created the heavens and the earth, and the earth was chaos and disorder..."
So, what was the work that the Creator set about doing for the next six days? Creating order out of the chaos. He made order by separating one thing from another and putting each thing in its proper place - light from darkness; day from night; land from water; and "each thing according to its own kind", etc.
In time, G-d began to separate between man and man. First, He separated Avraham out from mankind to become a root for a holy nation. Then, he separated between Yitzchak and Yishmael and again, between Ya'aqov and Eisav. Finally, He took the twelve tribes of Israel who descended from Ya'aqov and created from them a holy nation, separate from all the other nations - an event which is commemorated at the close of every Shabbat, with these words...
"Blessed are You, our G-d, who separates between holy and mundane; between light and dark; between Israel and the nations; between the seventh day and the six working days."
Furthermore, G-d gave us mitzvot which forbid the mixing of seed; cross-breeding of animals; grafting of fruit trees; mixing of linen and wool, etc. One of the mitzvot special to women involves the separation of challah from the rest of the dough. It is set apart for the Cohanim and Leviim because they also are set apart within Am Yisrael.
Modern thought deplores such circumstances. Its goal is the complete assimilation of all differences between people and nations. This is a Western construct which is rooted in the Western religion of Christianity which seeks to erase any difference between Jews and Gentiles...
(Ephesians, chapter 2, the New Testament) ...Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh—who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision...being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now...you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Chr*st. ...who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished ...the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create ... one new man from the two, ...Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God....Based on this, many Christian "lovers of Israel" are ready to move in and live side by side with us in mutal love and acceptance. They actually believe they have given up on replacement theology because they've moved over and made room for us to sit beside them. But, it's not enough for them to be neighbors. They consider themselves mishpocha as the end of the passage above informs them. They're staking out claims to the holy land itself. According to Binyamin, even the Pope will soon call Israel "home." Hashem yerachem!
The Westerners have long been engaged in cross-breeding and grafting, but it has now reached the point of mixing animal DNA with plant DNA. In fact, scientists have now created human life from the DNA of three parents! Even social programs are engineered to remove all barriers and boundaries of human behavior as homosexual marriages are sanctioned and transgenders call for their civil rights. Where will it all end?
No one can deny that the world is steadily descending into deeper and deeper levels of chaos. Some believe that this chaos is being orchestrated by wicked people who want to remove G-d from His creation and replace Him as the Ruler of All, G-d forbid! To do this, they must destroy all the order in creation so that chaos will result and from that, they plan to build their NEW World Order where there are no limits, no borders, no barriers - NO SEPARATION!
And this is the key to understanding everything that is happening in the world today. First bring chaos out of order, then rebuild a new order out of the chaos. That is their plan. But, for it to succeed, no separation can be allowed. ALL must be ONE.
In the New World Order, Judaism, the way of life based on separation, and the Jews who are committed to it, would simply cease to exist as they are absorbed into the whole through the acceptance of this new kind of achdut - a 'value' which has assumed supremacy in many Jewish minds. First, they preached to us of achdut with the secular rebels against the Torah. Then they preached to us of an achdut with the Erev Rav. Today, we are at the stage of achdut with Christian and Muslim 'Zionists' and mankind in general. We are not far away from the realization of this nightmare.
Thank G-d, Hashem will never allow them to succeed, but He will let them go very high so that their fall will be catastrophic. Until then, we must be aware and make others aware of this plan so that good Jews will not fall for the lies, but will remain steadfast with Hashem and His Holy Torah.
Beware of any efforts to "mix" us with other groups and do not participate with such efforts as you will be joining the side which has pitted itself against the Almighty!

"Don't Let Go of the Rope"

"Don't Let Go of the Rope"
I want to say to you all: Don't be afraid! There's nothing to fear. What can they do to us, chalilah, take off the head, chas v'shalom...? They won't take off our heads, b'ezrat Hashem. So, what can they do to us?... For whoever trusts in Hashem - it doesn't matter what happens - the Jew will be okay. Maximum, he'll go to Olam Haba. He won't feel any pain and he'll get through it quietly, and he'll arrive in Olam Haba.
But, I also want to say that to die would be easier, and to live will be much harder... Why will it be harder? Because, to live - it's to live with heartache, with the feeling that the world is full of lies and impurity, and to feel that we, people of truth, are so few, and that it doesn't appear how we are going to come out of it at all.
But, those who trust in Hashem, they know that Hashem will take us out from it, and all the evildoers He will erase from the world. And whoever goes with this knowledge and depends completely on all the prophecies and depends upon HaKadosh Baruch Hu, because He's the Almighty, and He loves His people, and He wants to protect every Jewish soul, whoever feels this - won't be afraid. And He knows that we are going only for the good, it doesn't matter what will happen around us, we're going only for the good.
And like we already said that it will be, the world is going more and more to sheker (lies). The light is going to become less and less and it will be more and more dark, until it's almost a problem to see where you're going. There are threats from all directions. A threat in the house, a threat in the street, a threat wherever we go. We want a vacation, we travel to some vacation spot, then also there, there's a threat. All over the world, there is fear.
Once, people would go up in an airplane without fear, and now - everyone is so happy when they land, because it's really a question whether they will arrive in peace... G-d help us. All the taste of life has disappeared. All the taste of the materialism of life and even the taste of spirituality. Because spirituality - it's also hiding from us, at least some of it. And only those who really trust in Hashem - won't lose the spiritual taste. Only they are not losing this taste. But, all those who are a-bit-of-lie-and-a-bit-of-truth, they're going to lose everything. Because there's not 'a-bit-of-lie-and-a-bit-of-truth' together. It's not called 'achdut'. The good and the bad together, in one place - it's not considered achdut. 'Achdut' (unity) - it's only the real Jew with soul, that's all truth, with HKB"H. And that's achdut. And not anything else.
And therefore, whoever wants to be in unity with Hashem and with Am Yisrael has to take out all the sins from within himself. All the goyische things he collected during these lives, and throw it all in the trash bin and burn it and remain clean. Then, it's possible to powerfully feel HKB"H. And it won't at all be a problem to hold fast on the rope, on the spiritual rope that connects us to Him, with Hashem.
But, if we think that it is possible now to hold on to materialism as well as spirituality - it won't go. Won't go! And as can be seen, a person like this, who in his stubbornness, takes hold of these two things, and he's sure that a bit of spirituality is enough - then, this person, as can be seen, is Erev Rav, and he'll disappear from the world.
World chaos, confusion. Even all that the heads of state are relating, why there is suddenly some army of cruel Muslims who are controlling Iraq, more or less, suddenly, and they are relating to us all kinds of stories about 'from where they came and how they suddenly came to be'. And it's all a lie. And there's example after example now.
And now, we're worried... In fact, not worried, the Jews are happy, hearing sounds all over the world... They're sure it's the shofar... I never heard a shofar with a noise like this... It's more like a horror-movie, or some siren before an explosion... that's how it sounds. It's not like a shofar. All over the world, in every place they are hearing it. And I heard now that already they're hearing 'marching' together with the sounds... So, who are these marchers...? Then, surely they want to tell that these are the creatures from outer space who want to come and rule over our world...
It's all nonsense. It's not a shofar. When it will be the real shofar - we will know. It will be so strong, but it will also be quiet. And it will enter straight within our heart. And the sound - a sound of momentary silence. And it will penetrate within our heart and soul. And even, perhaps, it won't enter us, it may be that it will go out from within ourselves! But, it will be clear what it is, will be clear that it's holy. It's holiness. And it will come straight from Heaven.
So, what I'm saying to you now - I'm saying it so you won't fall into the trap. So you won't think it's true, while it's entirely false. The evildoers will base all kinds of things on our prophecies, and try to make up, and to create also a sense of vision, and also smell, and also in hearing, something that it will be 'like Mashiach', in 'skin of Mashiach'. And many will believe in it, because they want to believe in it.
They have technology that is capable of bringing and creating all kinds of mirrors, within the air, without the need of any screen, a spectacle within the air, three-dimensional, that we will be sure it is real, really real!... And it will all be a lie, every bit of it will be a lie. They will make "wondrous things", like things that a person was never capable of doing, but it will all be a lie. All sheker.
And it will confuse the nation, and it will confuse the people of this world, and the gentiles - will accept it by the multitudes, and the Jews, to our great sorrow, they also - by the multitudes they will accept it. And it will all be a lie.
We need to be careful in all the news. From all the news that we're hearing - the majority is false. And it's based on lies. We need to check for ourselves. We need to look in the prophecies, we need to read the prophets so we'll know what's the truth. We need to pray so we won't be deceived, so we won't be confused with this enormous lie. Because they know how to persuade. But, whoever knows the truth, whoever is connected to HKB"H - he will know, and it will be clear to him that it is a lie.
Also, today, those who are closest to Hashem - see falsehood. There is falsehood so great here in the State of Israel - the lies of the Zionists. And how many Jews are falling for it! Look, there's a young guy in prison. He's not going in the army. Baruch Hashem, he has strength! And I bless him that he will always be strong. But, how many chareidi-Jews do want young guys to go to the army, are interested that Jews, even chareidim, will go to the army! And even though the army is full of filth, and they can't at all, only in a giant miracle like the miracle of Yosef Hatzadik, go out from there in holiness - no matter what.
The rabbis, many rabbis still want us to pray for the army. The army - it's an army of disrepute spiritually. And all the groups-of-chareidim are bound to fail, at least in thoughts. They're fighting, correct, and a portion of these young guys, they're not from the best, but they're Jewish souls, and it's forbidden to encourage it. Indeed, only because they are Jews - is it possible to pray for them to do teshuvah, and see the truth, and that they won't be injured. And about all these who aren't so-called 'chareidim' or 'dati'im', pray for them that they will do teshuvah and stop with all the dirty things that today already they're presenting it as a natural and desirable thing.
I am very, very surprised that Mr. Lapid from the Knesset said that he will not allow his children to marry Arabs, or with gentiles, or with I don't know what he said exactly. It's very interesting... He won't allow them to marry with gentiles, but it doesn't concern him to turn Judaism into goyut, so that they will have more choice of who to marry...
[Someone comments: Good, he wants the spouse to be Jewish...]
Really, that's such a poor situation. When did Am Yisrael reach to a low such as this...? There were always Jews who were going down from the path, they strayed and arrived to threatening things, but the majority of Jews, even the seculars, didn't go down to such a low level, usually. Anyway, the family - there was family, there was some kind of morality. But, now, there's nothing. There are always exceptions, but there's already almost nothing.
But, these are the 'Zionists' of the right. On one hand, they speak of 'Medinat Yisrael', and about how the Jews are an 'Am Segulah' and the Land of Israel belongs to them, but, on the other hand, they become mixed up with gentiles, and they're doing things that are really against the law, clearly, and they're doing it before the eyes of the people. They've reached a level lower than animals. And they still want to destroy, to take apart, the chareidim, so that there won't be anyone to give them mussar...
And then they will say: "This is Medinat Yisrael . We're Jews. Come! Whoever wants to be with us, to be Jews like us - come! There's nothing to it...! Enter a bit into the swimming-pool, immerse a bit, and come out Jews! Enter as gentiles - come out Jews. Chik chok!" Circumcision...?! Not necessary. But, if you want - then with a doctor. It's much more sanitary, and much more secure. Not with these dirty chareidim... Something clean, sterile. And they're all 'sterile'. They become sterile. Many of them are sterile, and their whole life is sterile. And that's the end. It's going to fall apart completely, and it's already begun to fall apart.
With all of the war that there was now - everything falls apart. They have their back to the wall. They can't do anything. And also, they don't want to do anything. And the Pope will come to settle here, and he will begin to dictate what-can-and-can't be done, they'll bring a new religion, and they'll rule here, for awhile.
And we, the real Jews, will have to hide, and not go out, and not look upon them, and not do what they want us to do, and Hashem will protect us, and He will allow us to pass through it in peace. And then, Mashiach will reveal himself, and we will get through all the tribulations of 'before Mashiach', before the building of the Third Temple - we will get through it in peace.
And only one thing we have to do: To hold fast to the spiritual rope that connects us with HKB"H. And no matter how much He swings us - don't let go of it. Don't let go of it. Don't let go of it.

So, what I'm saying to you now - I'm saying it so you won't fall into the trap. So you won't think it's true, while it's entirely false. The evildoers will base all kinds of things on our prophecies, and try to make up, and to create also a sense of vision, and also smell, and also in hearing, something that it will be 'like Mashiach', in 'skin of Mashiach'. And many will believe in it, because they want to believe in it.
They have technology that is capable of bringing and creating all kinds of mirrors, within the air, without the need of any screen, a spectacle within the air, three-dimensional, that we will be sure it is real, really real!... And it will all be a lie, every bit of it will be a lie. They will make "wondrous things", like things that a person was never capable of doing, but it will all be a lie. All sheker.
And it will confuse the nation, and it will confuse the people of this world, and the gentiles - will accept it by the multitudes, and the Jews, to our great sorrow, they also - by the multitudes they will accept it. And it will all be a lie.
We need to be careful in all the news. From all the news that we're hearing - the majority is false. And it's based on lies. We need to check for ourselves. We need to look in the prophecies, we need to read the prophets so we'll know what's the truth. We need to pray so we won't be deceived, so we won't be confused with this enormous lie. Because they know how to persuade. But, whoever knows the truth, whoever is connected to HKB"H - he will know, and it will be clear to him that it is a lie.
Also, today, those who are closest to Hashem - see falsehood. There is falsehood so great here in the State of Israel - the lies of the Zionists. And how many Jews are falling for it! Look, there's a young guy in prison. He's not going in the army. Baruch Hashem, he has strength! And I bless him that he will always be strong. But, how many chareidi-Jews do want young guys to go to the army, are interested that Jews, even chareidim, will go to the army! And even though the army is full of filth, and they can't at all, only in a giant miracle like the miracle of Yosef Hatzadik, go out from there in holiness - no matter what.
The rabbis, many rabbis still want us to pray for the army. The army - it's an army of disrepute spiritually. And all the groups-of-chareidim are bound to fail, at least in thoughts. They're fighting, correct, and a portion of these young guys, they're not from the best, but they're Jewish souls, and it's forbidden to encourage it. Indeed, only because they are Jews - is it possible to pray for them to do teshuvah, and see the truth, and that they won't be injured. And about all these who aren't so-called 'chareidim' or 'dati'im', pray for them that they will do teshuvah and stop with all the dirty things that today already they're presenting it as a natural and desirable thing.
I am very, very surprised that Mr. Lapid from the Knesset said that he will not allow his children to marry Arabs, or with gentiles, or with I don't know what he said exactly. It's very interesting... He won't allow them to marry with gentiles, but it doesn't concern him to turn Judaism into goyut, so that they will have more choice of who to marry...
[Someone comments: Good, he wants the spouse to be Jewish...]
Really, that's such a poor situation. When did Am Yisrael reach to a low such as this...? There were always Jews who were going down from the path, they strayed and arrived to threatening things, but the majority of Jews, even the seculars, didn't go down to such a low level, usually. Anyway, the family - there was family, there was some kind of morality. But, now, there's nothing. There are always exceptions, but there's already almost nothing.
But, these are the 'Zionists' of the right. On one hand, they speak of 'Medinat Yisrael', and about how the Jews are an 'Am Segulah' and the Land of Israel belongs to them, but, on the other hand, they become mixed up with gentiles, and they're doing things that are really against the law, clearly, and they're doing it before the eyes of the people. They've reached a level lower than animals. And they still want to destroy, to take apart, the chareidim, so that there won't be anyone to give them mussar...
And then they will say: "This is Medinat Yisrael . We're Jews. Come! Whoever wants to be with us, to be Jews like us - come! There's nothing to it...! Enter a bit into the swimming-pool, immerse a bit, and come out Jews! Enter as gentiles - come out Jews. Chik chok!" Circumcision...?! Not necessary. But, if you want - then with a doctor. It's much more sanitary, and much more secure. Not with these dirty chareidim... Something clean, sterile. And they're all 'sterile'. They become sterile. Many of them are sterile, and their whole life is sterile. And that's the end. It's going to fall apart completely, and it's already begun to fall apart.
With all of the war that there was now - everything falls apart. They have their back to the wall. They can't do anything. And also, they don't want to do anything. And the Pope will come to settle here, and he will begin to dictate what-can-and-can't be done, they'll bring a new religion, and they'll rule here, for awhile.
And we, the real Jews, will have to hide, and not go out, and not look upon them, and not do what they want us to do, and Hashem will protect us, and He will allow us to pass through it in peace. And then, Mashiach will reveal himself, and we will get through all the tribulations of 'before Mashiach', before the building of the Third Temple - we will get through it in peace.
And only one thing we have to do: To hold fast to the spiritual rope that connects us with HKB"H. And no matter how much He swings us - don't let go of it. Don't let go of it. Don't let go of it.

A Public Apology and Clarification
12 Elul 5774
In the spirit of Elul, I would like to apologize to anyone who was offended by this comment which I published last week:
There is a large and growing group of Jews who self-identify as "Religious-Zionists" who believe that they can and should make common cause with so-called "Xian-Zionists" around the Zionist values of land, state and army. We saw in a recent IDF ad how there are now even "Muslim-Zionists" who are serving in the supposedly Jewish State's defense forces. It was the ad's statement, "Zionism is more than a religion," which got me thinking along these lines.
It brings up questions like... Can Zionism be a religion and if so, is it? So, then, what about religious Zionism? How does Zionism redefine Judaism? It has its own definition of Who is a Jew? and Who is a righteous gentile? (All it takes is to be "a lover and supporter" of the Zionist State of Israel) Moshe Feiglin has said that Yad Vashem is the Zionist Temple.
Everyone knows that secular Zionists idolize democracy (along with its two sisters, tolerance and diversity), the IDF, the flag, and many other symbols of statehood. As far as I can see, a great many Religious-Zionists are only distinguished from secular Zionists by their adherence to certain mitzvot. But, when Torah values come into conflict with Zionist values - like the admonition to remain separate from gentiles; not to socialize with them or build relationships with them and not to allow them to practice avodah zarah in our holy land - the Zionist-democratic values win out.
I made reference to "rabbis of the Kook-persuasion" who are encouraging this view of Zionism among their students. I was speaking, of course, of Yeshivat Mercaz HaRav which has been viewed as the flagship yeshivah for the teaching of Religious-Zionist ideals. (It was in no way intended to cast any aspersions upon Rav Avraham Yitzchak HaCohen Kook, ztz"l.) It is where Rabbi Eliezer Melamed began his studies. He is not only the Rav and Rosh Yeshivah of Yishuv Har Brachah. He is the one who put a kosher stamp of approval on Tommy Waller's HaYovel. Har Brachah is also where the HaYovel Xian encampment has been established with Rabbi Melamed's blessing.
So, my words tarred the entire yeshivah, for which I woul like to publicly apologize. But, bear in mind also, that I had in the back of my mind this very important shiur which I learned from Rav David Bar-Hayim: Redefining Religious Zionism - a Critique of Mercaz HaRav
I think if you will also re-read a post I wrote two years ago (Dangerous Ideas), it will give you an even better idea of what forms the basis for my thinking.
All of that said, it could not be clearer that the times are changing and that we are all being brought to a point of clarification where we muct choose sides. I do not believe that it is any longer going to be possible to call oneself both a Torah Jew and a Religious-Zionist. This reminds me again of what the Maharal said of the secular state, four hundred years before it was established...
Also, see again my blog post on Revolutionary Zionism.
The most important thing that I hope for all of you to take out of all this is the following...
As the world unites more and more, and certain Jews with it, know that Hashem is calling His children to SEPARATE more and more to maintain our unique distinction as a light to the nations.
Shavua tov!
In the spirit of Elul, I would like to apologize to anyone who was offended by this comment which I published last week:
What we've really got here is a clash of values between two religions - traditional Torah Judaism and so-called Religious Zionism. Many settler-type Jews have unfortunately been converted over to Religious Zionism which is as idolatrous in its own way as Xianity, hence the compatibility between the two. This is how HaIvri, Medad, etc can call Tommy Waller their "brother" while they disrespect and insult and ridicule a good Torah Jew like Ariel Ben Yochanan. I see that it is useless to quote Torah to these adherents of this new false religion because very simply it is not their authority. The rabbis of the Kook-persuasion who have propagated this new false religion are their authorities. And it is enough to just throw out the names and the title rabbi is supposed to awe us. No need to actually find and quote authentic traditional Torah sources. If you really begin to examine these two groups, you will find that HaIvri and Lipkin and Medad and so many others from YoSh really have converted over to another false religion and they now have much more in common with their Xian "brothers" than with the likes of us - the lovers and upholders and defenders of authentic Torah Judaism.Although I did use the qualifier "many" so as not to paint an entire community with the same brush, I see that the accusatory tone which came across negated it. It was very wrong of me to throw such deep issues into such an off-the-cuff remark. Please allow me to expound on these thoughts.

All of that said, it could not be clearer that the times are changing and that we are all being brought to a point of clarification where we muct choose sides. I do not believe that it is any longer going to be possible to call oneself both a Torah Jew and a Religious-Zionist. This reminds me again of what the Maharal said of the secular state, four hundred years before it was established...
(As written by Rav Aryeh Carmell) Maharal's vision is guided by veiled hints in the Midrash: the "Kingdom of Israel" itself undergoes development. In its immature stage it forms part of the Fourth Empire, and only when it reaches maturity does it throw off this attachment and emerge as "the holy kingdom of the Messiah". (Kingdom is, of course synonymous with "state".)
Maharal continues: So long as the kingdom of the Messiah has not yet reached perfection, the kingdom of the Messiah is attached to Edom (nigar el Edom) ...The holy kingdom of Israel... must grow out of the non-holy kingdom that preceded it.
Maharal, in a telling parable, describes the relationship between the embryonic "kingdom of Israel" and its "Edomite" environment: Fruit grows within a husk; when the fruit ripens the husks falls off... So it is with Israel. Their kingdom emerges and grows from within the kingdom of the nations i.e., from the existential power of the kingdom of the nations, and from their level, it raises itself to a higher level. And when the kingdom of Israel reaches complete maturity the kingdom of nations is removed, just as the husk is removed, and falls off when the fruit reaches its perfection.
...The Messianic revolution will take place in the hearts and minds of the people. The "falling off of the husk" does not refer to a political or military event, nor does "kingdom of the nations" refer to a political entity. The husk refers to the value system of the Western world. The falling off of the husk signifies the victory of spirituality over materialism, faith in G-d over unbounded trust in one's own power, and awareness of divine providence over belief in blind chance.
Yet it appears that the "kingdom of Israel" in its infancy (and here "kingdom" means both state and cultural entity) is still definitely "attached to Edom". Could Maharal, from his 16th century vantage point, be referring to the reality of the State of Israel today?I think we are very close to the moment in time when real Torah-faithful Jews will let go of the "Religious-Zionism" term and the Erev Rav among us who are part of that group will cling ever more tenaciously to it as it really defines them. Because, let's face it. Zionism created a way to be Jewish without the Torah. And if you want to appear "religious" or even be a rabbi without obligating yourself to those mitzvot which are impossible to reconcile with Western values, there's no better home for you than Religious-Zionism.
Also, see again my blog post on Revolutionary Zionism.
The most important thing that I hope for all of you to take out of all this is the following...
As the world unites more and more, and certain Jews with it, know that Hashem is calling His children to SEPARATE more and more to maintain our unique distinction as a light to the nations.
