now of course sent us prophets throughout the generations but unfortunately there are also false prophets false prophets that sometimes had powers false prophets that even today have power perhaps not the mystical powers of the past but the power of speech where they could convince people to go against theem while convincing them that they're actually doing a Mitzvah these false prophets are here today unfortunately and of course there are also good prophets where says a prophet from your midst from your brethren like me mosenu says shall hasem your God establish for you to him shall you hearken you always have to listen to the right prophets not the false prophets false prophets what happens to the false prophet but the prophet who willfully speaks the word in my name that which I not command him to speak or who shall speak in the name of the Gods of others that Prophet shall die again same again tells us about how people get death penalty 3,333 years of death penalties but yet somehow people want to convince you that hasem loves everybody and you shouldn't hate anyone I'm not really understanding how somebody can claim to read the tah and actually say such a stupid statement 3,000 years of death penalties in the Torah instituted commanded by us and yet people say you should love everybody even if they hate God you should love the reformers even though they're destroying the Tor and is already for a few hundred years you should love them why should I love them oh they're Jews what makes them Jewish what makes them Jewish oh the Torah says if their mother's Jewish then they're Jewish yeah but the Torah that says that they don't believe in not Torah they don't believe the Torah is divine they don't believe they have to follow the Torah but we'll get to that in a moment said these false prophets that say God needs you these false prophets that say that GOM is only 12 months for everybody no matter who you are even if you're Adolf Hitler if you're shabat if you waste seed if you uh committed adultery if you made all types of crimes no matter what maximum punishment is 12 12 months thean one of the one of the greatest sages That Ever Walked on the face of the Earth Earth says in the uh seil uh that the uh uh uh um person that says that GOM is limited to 12 months is 100% an AOS and has no share of the god of Israel you can't count them in Manan you cannot count such a person in a minan that says that you have Gom is maximum 12 months but can I learn Torah from him Rabbi even though he says that there's only 12 months gam I don't know ask the ramban ramban knows better than me I'm just learning ramban says you can't learn from him in fact ramban says you can't even count them in Manan so you still asking the same question of whether you should learn from him but why is God so vicious why is that vicious why is that vicious well I don't want to go to Gom for 12 months so don't so do cha don't make SS why does it have to be more than 12 months the ran writes the ran writes and this is actually one of the places that's actually translated to English for anybody that uh wants to uh wants to read it it's called sh it's the the writings of the ramban and he says that saying that hasem has given us a maximum sentence of 12 months of Gom turns him into Shalom an evil God why an evil God because if you're giving the same sentence to someone that desecrated hashem's name desecrated toah desecrated Shabbat and did all of these sins as you do to somebody that made Petty crimes that's an evil God and if you give the same sentence to somebody that violated Shabbat one time versus somebody that violated Shabbat a thousand times that's an evil God if you give the same sentence to somebody that murdered one person versus somebody that murdered a thousand people the same sentence that's an evil God and we don't have an evil God we have a just God to say that a maximum sentence is 12 months the ramban says means that the person is an app person that believes that is a heretic 100% no question about it and who's going to go against the ramban you with your little funny hat or you motorcycle with your long beard call yourself Aid with uh with your Arab friends and your and your Christian best friends who's going to go against the ramban that's what to says and anyone to go against the rabbis Tora itself says that people like that get death penalty from a [Music] oh
