THE END MAY BE NEAR - Q&A w/ Rabbi Yaron Reuven

Rabbi Yaron Reuven discusses the importance of true Teshuvah (repentance). He emphasizes that Teshuvah involves not only stopping sinful behavior but also committing to not repeating it, regretting past sins, and ultimately achieving a state where HaShem himself affirms the individual's commitment to change. He warns against "bathroom Torah," referring to teachings that trivialize or contradict the Torah's true meaning, and cites examples of contemporary figures who spread harmful misinformation. Rabbi Reuven argues that the current state of the world, with its widespread moral confusion and rejection of traditional values, is a clear sign that we are approaching the end of times. He connects this to the historical events of Hanukkah, when the Jews were forced to fight for their right to practice their religion. He emphasizes that a true commitment to Torah is essential for our survival, both as individuals and as a nation. To Donate and Support our Kiruv work please visit us at www.BeEzratHaShem.org.
