    On the topic of moving the remains of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov from The Ukraine to
    somewhere in Israel an appeal has been sent to former President William Clinton:

    I wonder which bit of this he thinks is very wrong?-
    "Love God, love one another, feed the hungry, house the homeless, clothe the destitute, tend the sick, visit the prisoners, look after the poor"-Jesus of Nazareth (Mark 12:30, John 13:34, Matt 25:37-40)

    Good point!

    What he was shown during his NDE and through his meditations
    is very much in line with the simplicity of the gospel. The differences are explained quite well with this quote from his book:

    I've read Bruce F. MacDonald Ph. D's NDE account and his book and
    it is what is missing from the teachings of the United Church of Canada that
    is what offended him.

    crucifixion.....
    castration...(by the soldiers of Herod according to some sources).....
    thirst.... until a sponge is given with wine.... but he had already stated that he would not drink wine until he drank it anew in the kingdom with his disciples..... interesting.....

    and finally... a spear to the right side and out came blood and water.....

    This documentary amazes me......
    at the thirty minute mark we meet several
    Breslovian Chassidic Jews... I am amazed
    that there are only a thousand of them in Israel.......

    I figured there were about a million of them....
    because they are the only Jews who will carry on
    discussions with the likes of me........

    I did not read the posts on this thread but would like to point out that Orthodox Jews OPPOSE Zionism because it is inherently anti-Bible. Nothing in that book authorizes that evil and exclusionist ideology.

    That is kind of hard to understand because
    how can the Jewish people fulfill Ezekiel chapters 40 - 48
    without having their own nation?

    Rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple may be least expensive way to stabilize climate?

    This matter has been discussed extensively on this forum over the past few years.

    If you have read the Bible you would know that according to its teachings, only the Messiah can re-establish the Kingdom. When done, it will be re-created peacefully with not one drop of blood being shed in the process. Further, the the Promise to Abraham was extended to all Christians. On that basis, the Promise Land will not be the exclusive domain of Jews or of any other tribe. Among the references I previously listed are: Acts 1:6,7 - Daniel 7:13,14 - Hosea 3:4,5 - Isaiah 11:11,12 et al.

    But you seem like a bright guy......
    you should know that the first major "latter day" redeemer of Judaism will be Moshiach ben Ephrayim / Yosef
    who will somehow be "anointed for warfare."

    According to Rabbi Pinchas Winston this man will be a Gentile.... (for halachic purposes)......
    due to his being from the lost tribes of Ephrayim, the Northern Kingdom of Israel.

    Orthodox Jewish scholar and historian Yair Davidiy has stated that many scholars identify
    Moshiach ben Ephrayim with the Cyrus type. The final Cyrus...... according to Isaiah 45:4.5 does
    NOT even know G-d all that well.

    Moshiach ben Ephrayim might even refer to himself as an Agnostic......

    Good news for me since I am descended of that tribe - since we are of Hebraic origin, we are not Gentile. ;)

    Note, however, that this comes from Jewish/rabbinic teaching and not from the Bible. As such, there is no claim that this view has a divinely inspired origin.

    And thanks for saying I seem bright.

    I am seriously impressed!

    Am I incorrect to suspect that you already know about this theory?

    I posted a reply on that thread - the Armstrongs were charlatans. Small wonder why their cult went bankrupt and they were forced to sell their school and reorganize.

    But I am definitely glad that I was a part of their church in comparison to having been a part of many other churches....... that would not have prepared me to support the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Third Temple.... by Jews..... for Jews...... to pray for all nations.....

    An online friend of mine from Israel is hoping that the remains of Rabbi Nachman will be somewhere in Israel soon.

    This would be a great idea and would certainly cause a boom in tourism to Israel.

    Also...... pilgrims to the shrine of Rabbi Nachman would be much more effectively protected from
    potential terrorist attacks in Israel than they could be in the Ukraine.
