Action, Action, Action. But the most effective action that goes to the core.
Highlights from this week's learning and events; An eternal message from the Torah about how G-d Al-mighty wants the Torah message of His Divine Wisdom to reach every single man, woman and child.
Did you know that the Torah has an eternal Divine Message that applies to every single human being? Authentic Torah learning grounds us in reality, both what we can observe and what is beyond our observation, grasp and even understanding, and leads to practical positive action. Positive for us and positive for those around us. Torah reveals our Divine Innate Spiritual Compass and brings our Spiritual Backbone to the forefront of life.
If you have adopted some or all of Enlightenment thinking, learning Torah will challenge everything you believe and hold dear.
In each Week’s Roundup, you will find a special topic, links to this week’s learning, the Torah perspective on current events, upcoming learning and action suggestions. This week we embrace common sense action. Learn, take hope and take action, and share.
What actions must we take now to save lives in America, Israel and everywhere?
First, we must recognize that speaking about what someone else or a government should be doing is not action!
Second, we must realize that terror is designed to create a reaction, a controlled reaction that will advance the Marxist revolution. So we must consider if the ‘reaction’ that we are being told to do actually addresses the real issues or merely advances the Marxist revolution.
To escape the trap of ‘reactivity,’ and the trap of ‘unity’ around those pre-designed approved ‘reactions,’ we must reground ourselves in G-d Al-mighty’s Divine Wisdom and His Loving Divine Commandments, called Mitzvos. That Divine Wisdom is found in the Torah and in our Divinely gifted Common Sense.
As soon as we open the book of Genesis, we are instructed to both learn and teach the Torah as it applies to every human being. The very first verse is a statement that G-d Al-mighty created the entire universe and decided how and when to apportion land among the nations, that living in a particular land depends on G-d Al-mighty’s beneficence and the inhabitants’ choices to consistently live according to G-d Al-mighty’s Vision and Divine Commandments, and it is the specific responsibility of the Children of Israel to bring this message to every human being through ongoing and engaged personal conversation.
When we see the Divine Visions of liberty and abundance for every man and there are clear and simple Divine Rules that ensure that liberty and abundance, it is very easy to see the root of the problem in the Middle East today, to identify and expose the failures and betrayals of people and governments who fund, train and encourage murder and refuse to take decisive action against terror, and to have a clear plan of action.
Please take the time to watch this video where I outline the simple actions that each inhabitant of this world must take today.
Let me know your comments and share the message of hope with others.
Shabbos is coming, a reminder for every human being that they are an intentional creation of G-d Al-mighty right now and a continuing beneficiary of His Love, His Joy and His Abundance! What an incredible moment to increase even more in joy!
