should I get a gun people have asked me
this several times over the
years in the past I told him you want to
get a gun you can but quite frankly I uh
I don't necessarily think it's going to
be uh that helpful to people in the
situation that they really think they're
going to deal with just because you got
a you got a gun doesn't turn you into
into raino
tomorrow uh but uh you know some of said
yeah listen if you want to get a gun
certainly we've seen some situations
where getting a gun has helped uh some
people save uh save life and so on kill
the terrorist you want to get a gun you
can the problem is not getting a gun the
problem is the ideology that comes with
the
gun where people start thinking you know
what now they have a gun have to go
train they start
spending days out of their week going
and shooting it and and training it and
cleaning it and doing all these
different things they become Fanatics
and one gun is not enough they get a
second gun before you know it there's
like a little you know was a little
weapon store in his
house everything is in a safe one of
these giant safes that they Us in Banks
only problem is if something ever
happens you're not going to have time to
go to the safe and take it
out but anyway people are saying okay
I'll get
guns even if you get a
gun what about uh the people that went
to work today what about the war what
about heah what about Yemen what about
Iran what about all of this you going to
fight with them with a gun also that's
going to help
you so why are you watching it on the
news all
day the financial crises that people are
afraid of you can fix it by
watching no you think that if you take
the money out of the bank or you leave
it in the bank or you put it in Bitcoin
or you put it under a mattress that's
going to help you that's going to fix
the financial crisis If there really is
a financial crisis you think that
somehow you're going to escape it by
watching these
programs like what is the point of all
of this waste of
time I'll tell you what the point is the
point is to make you
worried that's what the Satan wants all
of you to do be extremely
worried the reason why is because once a
person is
afraid they bring the punishment on
thems says in the Book of Proverbs 29
verse
25 the fear of man will add a snare it's
like a trap or a
hazard but one who trusts in hem will be
protected rash on the over there
says someone that is has anxiety that is
afraid of
people will bring Terror to himself his
life will turn into
terror you're afraid of something you're
bringing it upon
yourself the prophet
Isaiah is brought in a new favorite book
by my
raban
it talks
about it says
that the prophet Isaiah says your
thoughts are where you
are which the sages
explain if your thoughts of where you
are that means that if you're thinking
about bad things you're thinking about
the fact you're afraid of terrorists
you're thinking that you're afraid of uh
losing money you're afraid of falling
for some type of uh scam you're afraid
of uh doing drugs again uh you're afraid
of uh somebody cheating you you're
you're afraid guess what when you're
afraid of those things you're afraid of
you're bringing yourself to that that's
where you are you now become connected
with what you're afraid of and therefore
the BET said over 200 years ago the
measure for measure punishment for
anxiety is exactly what you're Afra afid
of to happen to
you so
now tells us the fear of man will add a
hazard but one who trusts in hasem will
be
protected the David written about 300
years ago by R David
Al he writes on this
PUK
anxiety turns into a
trap that br brings evil decrees upon a
person on top of what's already there
what does it mean on top of what's
already
there
the is saying we're not saying that you
have nothing to worry about something
bad happened there was a terrorist
attack there's a war there's all types
of things meaning you have something bad
happened you have rational reasons to
worry but that doesn't mean you have
permission to
worry rational reasons to worry doesn't
mean you have permission to
worry and therefore this anxiety that
you now have of it happening again of
things getting
worse that turns into a trap why because
that in itself means you lack in your
inem in your confidence in hem which
brings evil decrees upon a person on top
of what already happened on top of the
terrorist happen on top of the war on
top of what's already happened that you
technically have a rational reason to
worry about but because you're worried
about more things
happening that actually brings those bad
things to happen so much so that the
person says
the can get to the point where he would
he's so confused because of his worry
she's so confused because of her
worry that they could easily fall for
small sins that they would never fall
for if they were
clear-minded but one who trusts in
hasem who will stop being
worried about things getting
worse he knows this is decree from
Hashem whatever happened but that means
it's also a message from Hashem a decree
from Hashem is a message from Hashem
hasm doesn't just send rockets and Amal
behind them because he needed to use
those rockets and give Amal a
job he gave them the opportunity to do
what they wanted to do because he needed
us to get the message from it which is
to do
chba so a person that sees whatever is
around them and takes that as a
message to elevate themselves
spiritually to increase their Torah
learning to increase their to increase
their to increase their servitude of
hem instead of being worried like
everybody else around him what will
happen to him he says this person will
now bring good upon
themsel to the
extent where instead of things getting
worse like other people will end up
having those things happening to them
for him for her life will actually get
better life will improve despite the
tragedy that's
around How could somebody get to that
point first and
foremost
understand there is
is and then there's
crazy and as you think that you can
control the
world
for
for amen
