The more serious a professing Jew is about religion, the more likely he or she is to take the biblical promises of re-establishment of the Land of Israel at face value.
Not surprising if one is familiar with the positions the Reform movement has taken on Israel over the years. Conservatives who happen to be Reform Jews should seriously be asking where their money is going when they support the Reform movement....
You mean DEFORMED Judiasm. I hope you learn from this, since you have gone after me in the past. They revere Marx not Moses. They are NOT Jews, but JINOs. they are the enemy. Let them turn gay, have abortions and intermarry. We won't miss them.
In my experience, most Reform Jews believe the Democrat Party has priority over G-d.
Wow, this Rabbi Jacobs is to the left of Yoffie, whom he is replacing. Absolutely disgraceful!
Thanks to Mort Klein of ZOA for laying out all the key facts in the posted article.
22 “Therefore say to the Israelites, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: It is not for your sake, people of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. 23 I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, declares the Sovereign LORD, when I am proved holy through you before their eyes.
24 “‘For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. 28 Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God. 29 I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and make it plentiful and will not bring famine upon you. 30 I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your sins and detestable practices. 32 I want you to know that I am not doing this for your sake, declares the Sovereign LORD. Be ashamed and disgraced for your conduct, people of Israel!
33 “‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: On the day I cleanse you from all your sins, I will resettle your towns, and the ruins will be rebuilt. 34 The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through it. 35 They will say, “This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited.” 36 Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the LORD have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it.’
HaShem will, for His sake, fix this mess, which by the look of things, should be soon. B"H, Hakadosh Baruch Hu.
