Ärende: "Council For Noahides"
==============================
Sharia Law on steroids - while the world focuses its attention
on "Islamists" using terror & jihad to bring about a Caliphate,
the Noahides seek to place the world under Noahide Law, outlawing
belief in Jesus Christ, Christianity, and Christian holidays.

The penalty for transgressing "Noahide Laws", so praised by US
presidents & congress, is death by beheading. The move to fake
the millennial reign of Jesus Christ under a false messiah 
will result in the rule of the Beast whose number is 666.

Sanhedrin Moves to Establish Council For Noahides
01:39 Sep 29, '05 / 25 Elul 5765
By Ezra HaLevi

A council of non-Jewish observers of the Seven Laws of Noah has been
selected and will be ordained by the reestablished Sanhedrin in
Jerusalem this January.

B'nai Noach, literally "Children of Noah," known as Noahides, are non-
Jews who take upon themselves the Torah's obligations for non-Jews -
consisting of seven laws passed on from Noah following the flood, as
documented in Genesis (see below).

Until now, Noahide communities and organization had been scattered
around the globe, with a particular concentration centered around the
southern United States. The communities themselves are a relatively
recent phenomenon bolstered by the fact that the Internet has allowed
individuals sharing Noahide beliefs to get in touch with one another.

The court of 71 rabbis, known as the Sanhedrin, which was
reestablished last October in Tiberius following the reinstitution of
rabbinic semikha, decided, after numerous requests from the Noahide
community, to assist the movement in forming a leadership council.

Rabbi Michael Bar-Ron, with the Sanhedrin's blessing, travelled to the
United States to meet with representatives of the Noahide movement and
select members for the High Council. Bar-Ron, an ordained student,
talmid samukh, who currently sits on the Sanhedrin, is also one of the
Sanhedrin's spokesmen.

Bar-Ron organized a small conference in California where six of the
council's future members were selected and also addressed the annual
convention of the Vendyl Jones Research Institute - one of the Noahide
organizations represented on the council. At the VJRI convention, Bar-
Ron met five more of the Noahide leaders who will be joining the
council.

The purpose of the council, which was the brainchild of Rabbi Avraham
Toledano, is to assist the B'nei Noach in their struggle to observe
the word of G-d. "The goal is to unify, serve and organize all kosher
B'nei Noach communities of the world under a single body that can
operate under the direct authority and supervision of the Sanhedrin,"
the decision to establish the body reads. "To form a vessel through
which the Torah, from Zion (via the Sanhedrin) can effectively serve
non-Jewish communities around the world."

A third goal of the creation of the High Council and the Sanhedrin's
efforts in regard to the Noahide community, is to "transform the
Noahide movement from a religious phenomenon - a curiosity many have
not heard of - into a powerful international movement that can
successfully compete with, and with G-d's help bring about the fall
of, any religious movement but the pure authentic faith that was given
to humanity through Noach, the father of us all," said emissary Bar-
Ron.

To that end, one of the primary functions of the council will be the
creation and development of effective outreach materials for the
world. Although Judaism does not require or encourage non-Jews to
become Jewish, the observance of the Seven Laws of Noah is incumbent
upon humanity and widespread observance is to be worked toward, even
through active proselytization, something that is anathema to Judaism.

The council is also seeking to identify and contact communities around
the world who observe the Seven Laws of Noah in order to invite them
to learn more about the movement. B'nei Noach in India and Brazil are
already in touch with Noahide leaders.

Asked why the Sanhedrin would reach out to B'nei Noach before
concentrating on outreach within the Jewish community, Rabbi Bar-Ron
answered: "There was no conscious choice to ignore the issue of
outreach toward other Jews, but there is a Torah principle that a
mitzva, positive precept, that comes to your hand should be fulfilled
first and should not be put off. It happens to be that the group that
showed the most outward display of support and genuine concern for the
success of the Sanhedrin - contacting us from the very outset - were
the B'nei Noach. One of the great responsibilities of the Jewish
people is to spread the laws of Noach."

Bar-Ron said he had mixed feelings as he departed for the meetings
with the B'nei Noach leaders, as he left the day the forced expulsion
of Jews from Gaza began. "I was in such a horrible heart-wrenching
pain about leaving - I almost felt like a traitor to our people. But I
realized then that although the government was detaching itself from
the Land of Israel - a partial annulment of our covenant with G-d,
similar to the sin of the ten spies - there is another aspect of the
covenant that has not been pursued. That aspect is our obligation to
be a nation of priests unto the nations. This is the core of the
covenant with Abraham and it is something the Jewish people as a
nation has not involved itself in since Second Temple times. So as the
government disengaged from the covenant, I was participating in the
reengagement with an aspect of the covenant that has been dormant."

Bar-Ron was very impressed with the B'nei Noach leaders he met. "Each
of them had a different unique talent. One was an extremely talented
media coordinator, two were great scholars of Noahide law, one was
secretary of a large successful Noahide community and research
institute and one was a law enforcement officer for a number of years.
Each had the wisdom and experience that will help them lead the
movement.

All of the prospective members of the High Council are obligated to
appear in Jerusalem this coming January, at which time they will be
ordained by the Sanhedrin as members of the High Council. "One of the
things I thought would be more difficult was implementing the fact
that the Sanhedrin's steering committee unanimously voted that the
High Council members must appear personally before the Sanhedrin to be
ordained as such," Bar-Ron said. "But the level of commitment of these
people is so high that it is not posing a problem at all.

Each member was screened very carefully and accepted not only on the
basis of their high reputation, wisdom and experience - there were
many dedicated and talented B'nei Noach who we would have loved to
have accepted into the council - but for their role as representatives
of entire B'nei Noach communities or as experts in a particularly
field.

The acting head of the Sanhedrin, Rabbi Yoel Schwartz, has set up a
Beit Din for B'nei Noach to serve the needs of B'nei Noach worldwide.
At this point, the council will not serve as a adjudicating body.

"It is our sincere hope that in years to come, the knowledge of the
halakha, Torah law, of the Seven Laws of Noach will grow to such a
degree that there will be true Noahide judges," Bar-Ron said. "One of
the goals is to delineate clearly the seven laws and their
applications according to the Mishneh Torah of the Rambam."

"Never before in recorded history have B'nei Noach come together to be
ordained by the Sanhedrin for the purpose of spreading Noahide
observance of laws," Bar-Ron said. "This is the first critical step of
bringing about the ultimate flowering of the brotherhood of mankind
envisioned by Noach, the father of mankind."

The Seven Laws of Noah are:

Shefichat damim - Do not murder.

Gezel - Do not steal or kidnap.

Avodah zarah - Do not worship false gods/idols.

Gilui arayot - Do not be sexually immoral (engage in incest, sodomy,
bestiality, castration and adultery)

Birkat Hashem - Do not utter G-d's name in vain, curse G-d or pursue
the occult.

Dinim - Set up righteous and honest courts and apply fair justice in
judging offenders and uphold the principles of the last five.

Ever Min HaChai - Do not eat a part of a live animal.
