Rabbi Avigdor Miller on Shemoneh Esrei (Blessing the Heretics)

Victor Miller Shalom once told is about what he thinks about when he prays. And he says during Amida, so we prayed three times a day. There's a section that's called This the says that the is also called the prayer of 18 blessings but really has 19 and the says that's because said we have to add a 19th one as a bequesting to Hashem talking to Hashem and pleading with him to destroy the wicked people, those informers, those heretics, those intentional sinners. So we have a prayer inside the most critical part of our prayer every day, three times a day that is in it, there's a plea to Hashem to please destroy all of the wicked people. He says, you know, you still have to have when you pray. And you know what helps me with my covenant is I think of who are these these wicked evil people that I want Hashem to destroy. And it's always the same three. The New York Times, which is the liberal anti-semitic, anti- Torah, anti-good media, the Israeli court system, the bags, heretics, that do everything and anything possible to push their communist, atheist Zionism and destroy destroy the Torah till this day. And the third is any organization that supports LGBTQ. Those are the says Vd Miller that I pray to Hashem and plead with him to remove and uproot from the world. These are the enemies of the Torah. These are the biggest enemies. One of his community members naively said to the rabbi, "I hear what you're saying. You know, these people are evil and everything, but why do you have to go to war with everybody? Why not just, you know, ignore it or accept them as they are? Why can't we just make peace with everybody live in peace? Victor Miller was surprised at the question. He says that you have you read the words of David because says otherwise in Psalm 97 verse number 10. says, "Those that love Hashem hate evil." Which means that if we do not hate these anti-orah, these heretics, these that are trying to uproot the Torah, if we don't hate them, if we don't want Hashem to destroy them, all that means is that we don't love Hashem. By you thinking that we should be in peace, everyone should love each other, that means you don't love Hashem because the gives us instructions of how to connect to Hashem at the highest level. He says those that love Hashem hate evil. So if you don't hate evil, it's apparent you don't love Hashem. Furthermore says David in Psalm 139 verse 22 which the Rambam as our attitude towards those that are trying to uproot the Torah those that are brazen with their sins. says in Psalm 139 verse 21-22 for indeed those who hate you, oh Hashem, I hate them and I quarrel with those who rise up against you with the utmost hatred. I hate them. They have become enemies unto me. And then he continues saying, "Examine me, oh God, and know my heart. Test me and know my thoughts and see if I have a vexity way and lead me in the way of eternity." The vid doesn't just see these words. He says to Akadosh, "Look into my heart. You are the only one that can see into my heart and to my mind. Do I mean these words? That I hate your enemies? That I hate the wicked heretics? That I hate the informers? That I hate the missionaries? That I hate the idoltors? Do do I really mean it or I'm just saying, you know, words that are just air? Is it just hot air or is it really what I feel? You're the one that could test me. See what's in my heart. hating the those that are trying to uproot the the liberal media, the bags, those organizations that support the that's an obligation that every single person has if they want to express their love of Hashem. Many people say, "No, I did cha from loving Hashem. I just love Hashem. Okay, great. So that means you hate all the evil. You hate the evil. You hate anyone that goes against Hashem more than anybody else. No, no, I don't hate anybody. But I love Hashem. That's not possible. Do you know more than me? Do you know more than Schlommo? Do you know more than the Torah? No. Hashem says, "Those that love me hate evil. [Music] Let me know uh what you think and make sure to share it because other people need to learn
