Why would you put yourself greater than God. Those that exalt themselves will be abased. Don't forget why you wear that skull cap, a sign of humility before God. God does not need you otherwise he would not be omnipotent (which he is). God does use, love and care for his creations. God said in the Bible that he didn't need the Jews. If they would not worship him, he would just have the rocks of the earth do it. He doesn't need you, he will use you and care for you and all his creations though. To think otherwise is pure arrogance.

Exactly my feelings about giving my son away to become such an unwanted friend and rejected by all, while instructing him to be a gentleman and kind to all who despise him. As a father, I would be afraid they'd defile my most faithful and believing Son who by birth was a Bastard since his dad wasn't his dad! He felt the errs/errors of each and everyone of us taking on our very own afflictions, nature, and susceptibility, and ignored the pain, temptation, and sensations (to self-mutilate Himself) he refused to surrender to; and to instead dismiss, while still being our friend in the conflict w/in us who hear Him. Yeah, He weeps alone because of our absence. He wanted to help us out of our personal troubles and show you someone understands enough to let you know He's with you when everyone else rejects you, or derails you. And to gently nudge you with dreams, messages, and a stirring in your heart to abandon the Tyrannies of man, and to go by faith that no name under the Sun has disqualified you as the Spirit-filled gust that causes you to depart from the Contempt for you will not bow down and plead damnation on your soul, before a friend in your mirrored self-wrath of disappointment and constant self-analysis. Unless you're a boot-licker and prefer to be dictated everything.. I guess it's a miracle if someone loves you without a demand of proof about your loyalty. It was HIS loyalty accredited to your ability to come at the hour of 5pm rather than 7am, with the abundance of glory measured by how empty your own Cup was, to receive this Passion.

He uses the phrase "practicing Christianity " rather than "was a Christian " because according to Jewish law, in the eyes of G-d a Jew remains a Jew even if he "converts". ​The 613 commandments were not given to prove they can't be kept. They were given with precise instruction and with the promise of reward and punishment. G-d does not lie, nor does he play games. He means what He says. We don't need to be "saved"; we need to live up to our mission in life, which is to seek out G-d in our lives and connect with Him with Him with live and awe by fulfilling His will. For Jews this is the 613 commandments, for non-Jews this is the 7 Noachide Laws. Unlike other religions, Judaism teaches that you have a place in Heaven even if you are not Jewish, as long as you keep the 7 Noachide Laws. Judaism is not for everybody, but G-d's love is there for all who love Him. G-d's "vulnerability" is that He leaves it up to us to excersize our free will (a gift from Him) to decide whether we want to pursue a relationship with Him (which He wants). Certainly G-d showers us with love and compassion all the time, even when in hard times, but it's up to us to recognize it. He wants a connection with us, it's why He made us, but He doesn't force it on us. This chosen vulnerability does not detract one iota from His Supremacy. Only the Almighty Timeless Master of all has the ability to be so vulnerable with the assurance to ultimately have what He seeks.

@TheSeptuagint Talmud is the oral part of the Torah. As an emergency measure at the beginning of our current exile, it was written in an abbreviated way, so as to retain it while still requiring the personal, teacher student mode of transmission. Without the Oral Law, the meaning and intent of the Written Law (what Christians call the "Old" Testament) cannot be properly understood. For example, in the Written Law, there is a commandment to use phylacteries, but the Oral Law is where there is a description of what they are.

@ 3 mins in, he's already confused. God respects your free will. He will not force you to be with him. He made the offer, you not him rejected it. He's not going to force you to be with him in eternity when you don't even want to be with him now. It's a simple concept to understand. If a person has someone they love and that person rejects them, is it proper for that person to come groveling knowing that they'll do it in vain? Thats not love. Respecting that other person's decision is love. Love cannot be forced nor coerced. Let that person go and move on. That is exactly what God does to those who reject him. He respects their free will and lets them be. The door is open if that person decides to come to him, but he will not force it.

Bóg nie dlatego posłał na ziemię Jezusa Chrystusa że nie mógłby czegoś wykonać sam ale dlatego, że samemu będąc przepełniony miłością, stworzył nas ludzi i pragnął się z nami tą nieskończoną miłością podzielić. Dlatego dla nas stworzył TEN wszechświat i wszystkie PRZYSZŁE światy. Jezus przyszedł na ziemię po to, aby nam to oznajmić. Dlatego KAŻDY kto wierzy w Jezusa Chrystusa, otrzyma ten najwspanialszy dar miłości od samego Boga i dlatego mamy prawo nazywać się jego dziećmi amen.

It seems to me that the part about, "If you don't love me, then go to hell," misses the mark. God doesn't say, "Then go to hell," if you don't love God. What happens is that in the end, you find out that you have been pushing off the infinite love of the creator of all things in both word and deed, and when you see what it is you've been pushing off, it is crushing to the depths of your soul. And you find that in your pushing God away, the worst thing God could ever do is to respect your wishes on that point. And now that God does exactly that, after a lifetime of pushing God away, you have no one to blame but yourself for the ultimate, limitless, eternal loss you now suffer. In my view, this is what hell is.

You seriously think you need to quote pieces of the Torah to us? To a rabbi? What does that prove for you? We've spent over 3335 years studying it, dissecting it, to know intimate levels of G-d's words, not the simplicity of them. No, G-d does not 'look for other vessels'. A relationship with G-d is complex, sometimes distant, sometimes intimately close. It is never, never, "abandoned". He has not "given up" on us, Jews, either. Moshiach is coming to finish the preparation for this world to be perfected for G-d to dwell here with us. Here. Not in heaven.

I'm a Jew who likes your post. In Judaism beliefs don't matter as much as your actions as part of your community. I was raised atheist Jewish. My dad was devout till the Holocaust. He would be 110 if he were alive today. Since some parts of Judaism see history as an expression of G-d's will, a lot of Jews who were adult during WW2 became atheist from that trauma. Ironically my return to Kabbalic beliefs started with participation in Native American ceremonies in my 30s. My atheism began cracking when I became a camping nut in my 20s & I had mystical experiences in nature. My own belief is that if your religion gives you compassion & courage & a sense of responsibility, you please G-d, no matter what religion you believe in.

Apparently,, there is freewill in Heaven because a third of the Angels (demons) revolted. You think they were on to something?

I don’t understand why he is saying no one cares if you are perfect. The whole point of the law was to call humanity toward perfection and holiness so that we can be with him once again instead of separated from him by sin. God cares about us being perfected because if we aren’t we can not be with him, we will die in his presence without being purified in perfection, through atonement, through a heart that is for him and his law. I’m not Jewish but I thought this is a basic understanding of the function of the law, and he seems to be undermining it with his statements

What about the story of the Tower of Babel that is found in the book of Genesis in the Torah, specifically in Genesis 11:1-9. According to the story, the people of the earth, who all spoke one language, gathered in the land of Shinar (Babylonia) and decided to build a city with a tower that would reach the heavens. They wanted to make a name for themselves and prevent their dispersal across the earth. Did The Lord come down to see the city and the tower the people were building? In Isaiah 53, who is referred to as the "Suffering Servant"? In Genesis 18, three men (understood to be angels) visit Abraham, and he extends hospitality to them. Similarly, in Genesis 32, Jacob wrestles with a man who is later revealed to be an angel. Were they in human form and were they angels ?

Since you say your Christian man just so you know, the idea of an all loving God that allows humanity to choose destruction and the path to death is not something the Jews don’t have to contend with. In Deuteronomy God says “I call heaven and earth to record this day against you that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live” The Psalms also speak of how God is with us in both our calamity, whether self inflicted or not, as well as in our triumphs. The Christian knows God loves us and doesn’t wish to send any of us to Hell, and is still in agony over any of us that did unfortunately end up there. And vulnerability, God was personally tortured and suffered death for us so that we might live free from sin. He lived a life of humility and agony for our sake, without any of us earning it.

Seeing how God and God alone determines what is good bad flawed or perfect . God in and of himself is quite incapable of being flawed or vulnerable. A God that is flawed is not worth worshiping. Therefore, the God of Abraham can only be an all powerful all-knowing and an invulnerable God. I still love hearing your voice, Rabbi.

Because many would consider God’s being both loving and compassionate towards others as vulnerabilities and flaws. Entering into a loving relationship with someone else comes with very real risks. They might turn on you and reject you at any time. You might show compassion, and someone might take advantage of you for doing that. But, the alternative is for God to become a cold, heartless robot to shut out any perceivable vulnerabilities.

Does this mean when the humanity doesn't exist anymore God will cease to exist? he imagines a God similar to Steve Jobs, he created his mac computer because he needs it, doesn't make any sense just like the Christian concept three in one, go and try to make a sense of it. If God loves us this means he is vulnerable, imagine a vulnerable God? vulnerability is the quality of being easily hurt or attacked. for how long the humanity has bee hostile and transgressed since the existence of the earth. God has a lot of patience and he doesn't get hurt easily otherwise he would have buried alive George Bush, Tony Blair and their clan when they went caused destruction and death in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Lybia...etc Again, this Rabbi is comparing the love of God toward his creation, to the love of humans toward others or objects they create or already created by God, God is self-sufficient, all-knowing, all-hearing and all-powerful therefore he doesn't need us, we need him badly especially these horrible times we live in where the wrong became right and the right became wrong. God loves the one who loves him, he loves the one who wants to sincerely connect with him, who doesn't associate any partner with him, who doesn't abuse his other creation. God loves the one who struggles to perfect his character, the one who serves other creation of god. God knows humanity he created like the back of his hand[metaphorically], he knows who is the sincere and who is the insincere so he won't get shocked when the insincere turns his back on God.

If YOU had to "witness" to a Freemason Mormon, would you REALLY make the sacrifice to read their "Mormon Bible" in order to know their Unholy texts in order to get them "saved"? (Why bother arguing with a False Religion that you know is BOGUS?) Rabbi Singer made the sacrifice and extra effort to become knowledgeable on an Unholy text (didn't come from HaShem) in order to strongly defend Judaism and explain how Paulinian Christianity ripped it off, CRIMINALLY.

God doesn’t NEED us. He WANTS us. His love is not like human love, His love is PERFECT, COMPLETE and WHOLE. He can ‘feel’ vulnerability without literally being vulnerable. Remember he made us in his image. He gave us feelings. They are useful, but should not be blindly ‘followed’ as he warns us plenty. If we experience the “feeling” of vulnerability as images of Him, then He clearly experiences vulnerability Himself, yes? We are human, sinful and fallen, but He is whole and perfect and complete. His vulnerability is not the same.

People who dismiss religions, for all the human baggage that goes with them, trust that somehow their instincts will guide them into truth. Subjective feelings and impressions are only good when they work with the framework of knowledge of the spiritual realm that religious truth provides. Some things cannot be learned through deduction, reflection, observation---which all can be distorted as much or more than religion---but religion has the weight of not only a large group of people scrutinizing and vetting the ideas and often has mass eyewitness testimony of supernatural/miraculous/inexplicable abnormal occurences. Study the whole e Bible---because it is full of historically verified supernatural events---meaning there were many eyewitnesses at the time of the events and people who meticulously preserved/recorded these accounts through the oral transmission and written Scriptures. This is what "history" is: eyewitness accounts of events recorded and handed down to people living in later generations. ~C

Let’s think about this - the vulnerable G-d, when Moishe lifted the brazen serpent in the wilderness that whosoever would look upon the serpent should live and those that did not perished, this shows the lack of vulnerability that Rabbi is stating G-d has. A vulnerable G-d stated Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated? A vulnerable G-d is inconsistent with the Torah. Rather, G-d wants faith that when it is put into action, it is obedience. A significant other that is not faithful is allowed to be divorced under the Torah, so which spouse is vulnerable, the unfaithful or the faithful? Is not the potter greater than the pottery?

Yehovah Elohym dose not say I am sending you to hell because you don't love me, but He says Hell is for the devil who rebelled against me, and for the devilish people, who like the devil, rebelled against me. A good analogy is this: A man who is a judge, loves his son. He says to his son, "I love you son, and whatever you do, do not go and shoot any inocent people for money." The son leaves the house and say to himself, "I don't have to listen to my father, I will do whatever I want to do." So the son of that judge rebels agains his father, goes to a bank, robs the bank and kills 3 bank tellers. He gets caught and stands before the judge, who just happens to be his father. His father tells him, "I love you son, but I have to execute Judgement upon you, or I wouldn't be a just Judge." "Though I love you, I must sentence you to death." The same was true with Adam and Eve. Though their Heavenly Father, Yehovah Elohym loved them, they listened to the devil and REBELLED against him like the devil, and became devilish, by stealing the fig from the tree and eating it, after their Heaven Father, who loved them told them not to. And when the Almighty Creator punished them, He did not punish them because they said, "We don't love you," but he punished them because they disobeyed him and REBELLED against him just like the devil.

They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. Isaiah 53 53 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? 2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. 4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth. 8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away. Yet who of his generation protested? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was punished. 9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth. 10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. 11 After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

I have a question for the Jewish people. I was born into a catholic family. I was baptized and confirmed but never knew God. I recently have had a softening of my heart after pleading with God for help. What brought me to that point was listening to Dennis Prager talk about exodus and go through the story. Everything made sense. God gave us the outline for a great life. A fulfilled life through the Commandments. If everyone would follow them the world would be paradise. So my question is : As a non Jew how do I honor God? Would I be welcome in a Synagogue? How can someone like me worship properly. I’m very scared that I’m going to do something wrong and lose my connection with God. Any help or advice would be very appreciated.

As a non-Jew you really are only responsible for the Noahide laws, "Noah" was a righteous non-Jew.

@@filthism1659 There is a difference between being Jewish and believing in Judaism. You will never be Jewish unless your mother was Jewish. The Jewish people are an insular culture with it's own cultural norms and traditions. You can't just outvoice their prerogative because you believe in something. I'm sorry to tell you, but you don't get to decide. None of us do.

With all due respect, for what kind of ”insight” are you thankful? A demonic one? Can you not see that the man has no idea of who God really is? He says that the God revealed in Christianity is not vulnerable One! That is a LIE from the pit of hell! But his statements are not to be surprising. He only talks from his father, the devil, who is a liar and a deceiver! God forbid us from this kind of demonic teachings!

Genesis answers the Question. Genesis 1:2 Now the earth was astonishingly empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the spirit of God was hovering over the face of the water. בוְהָאָ֗רֶץ הָֽיְתָ֥ה תֹ֨הוּ֙ וָבֹ֔הוּ וְח֖שֶׁךְ עַל־פְּנֵ֣י תְה֑וֹם וְר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֔ים מְרַחֶ֖פֶת עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם: 1:26 And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and they shall rule over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heaven and over the animals and over all the earth and over all the creeping things that creep upon the earth." כווַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֱלֹהִ֔ים נַֽעֲשֶׂ֥ה אָדָ֛ם בְּצַלְמֵ֖נוּ כִּדְמוּתֵ֑נוּ וְיִרְדּוּ֩ בִדְגַ֨ת הַיָּ֜ם וּבְע֣וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֗יִם וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבְכָל־הָאָ֔רֶץ וּבְכָל־הָרֶ֖מֶשׂ הָֽרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־הָאָֽרֶץ: Genesis showed God in singular, both spirit and Body. And yet singular. Daniel 12: 2 And many who sleep in the dust of the earth will awaken-these for eternal life, and those for disgrace, for eternal abhorrence. בוְרַבִּ֕ים מִיְּשֵׁנֵ֥י אַדְמַת־עָפָ֖ר יָקִ֑יצוּ אֵלֶּה לְחַיֵּ֣י עוֹלָ֔ם וְאֵ֥לֶּה לַֽחֲרָפ֖וֹת לְדִרְא֥וֹן עוֹלָֽם: 3. And the wise will shine like the brightness of the sky, and those who bring the multitudes to righteousness like the stars forever and ever. גוְהַ֨מַּשְׂכִּילִ֔ים יַזְהִ֖רוּ כְּזֹ֣הַר הָֽרָקִ֑יעַ וּמַצְדִּיקֵי֙ הָֽרַבִּ֔ים כַּכּֽוֹכָבִ֖ים לְעוֹלָ֥ם וָעֶֽד: f we are not forgiven how can anyone be saved.

Welcome home ! If you study and make your conversion, great, but if you do not, that is great also. Whatever is HaShem 's Will. I was on same path as you, and honestly, since i am older and will not be raising a family, studying and observing the Noachide Laws with Orthodox Rabbanim seems to be exactly where i need to be. Better that i have some 70 Mitzvot done well than botch up the many more Mitzvot given to tbe B'nei Ysrael. I would cause the Rabbanim who followed my conversion to sin, when i sinned.

@@thomasmattson2389 how long have you been studying under your Rabbi's tutelage ? For conversion, or as a Noachide? Your questions will easily be answered in your study group. If there has been deviation from Torah and you feel the group you are studying with is not keeping Torah, i would definitely not hang out there anymore. Still give some tzedaka for the schul, but maybe it's not the right one for you. Caveat - if, heaven forbid, this is a messianic church you've found yourself in, RUN !!!!!! Edit.

Exodus 33:18 Moses said: "Show me, now, Your glory!" 19He said: "I will let all My goodness pass before you; I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and I will favor when I wish to favor, and I will have compassion when I wish to have compassion." 20And He said, "You will not be able to see My face, for man shall not see Me and live." 21And the Lord said: "Behold, there is a place with Me, and you shall stand on the rock. 22And it shall be that when My glory passes by, I will place you into the cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with My hand until I have passed by. 23Then I will remove My hand, and you will see My back but My face shall not be seen." And Abraham saw and talked with God. Genesis 18:1-15 " 13And the Lord said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Is it really true that I will give birth, although I am old?'14Is anything hidden from the Lord? At the appointed time, I will return to you, at this time next year and Sarah will have a son."17And the Lord said, "Shall I conceal from Abraham what I am doing?19For I have known him because he commands his sons and his household after him, that they should keep the way of the Lord to perform righteousness and justice, in order that the Lord bring upon Abraham that which He spoke concerning him."20And the Lord said, "Since the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah has become great, and since their sin has become very grave,26And the Lord said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous men within the city, I will forgive the entire place for their sake."32And he said, "Please, let the Lord's wrath not be kindled, and I will speak yet this time, perhaps ten will be found there." And He said, "I will not destroy for the sake of the ten."33And the Lord departed when He finished speaking to Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.” The tanakh is clear, so why isn't it understood as written. Nothing makes sense.
