If this is true, where can I sign up for classes to study the noahide laws? There seem to be many I cannot and wish to avoid them. Reply

Glad to hear a message on Jews reaching out to the world. The world is waiting for the revelation of G-d. My question regarding this message though is if a non Jew should study Torah, but not specific laws that pertain only to the Jews like Sabbath, etc. how does he know what to study? And how does he know how to worship G-d? The Noahide laws only speak of "do-nots". Reply

Re: Bnei Noach, Nefesh Elokis and Nochri status (Feb 17 2015) I have been asking the same question.
There are Rabbis who assert that since bnei noach accepts the 7 laws their status is separate from a nochri, as nochri are those who has not accepted the laws .
They say that a Ger is someone who takes on the law but retains the right to eat non kosher food.
I certainly do not identify with the nochri or the akum , so I hope that there will be more discussions among the orthodox rabbis regarding the Ger Toshav status , those with nefesh Elokis .
If one has it one is aware of it . Reply

World Peace We will achieve world peace when we each individually overcome. This is a process and will happen only when those who are meant to be "ripe" will be "ripe". Then a new heaven and earth will eventually appear, and the eternal covenant with Abraham will be fulfilled. Reply

Bnei Noach, Nefesh Elokis and Nochri status If bnei Noach can grasp a nefesh Elokis, then why are they still nochri?

At 16:40 is explicitly talking about bnei Noach grasping haShem with the seichel, which defines the grasping of a nefesh Elokis(G-dly Soul). Interesting though that at 17:25 he calls bnei Noach "nochri"(I think).

I would assume that a human with a nefesh Elokis would not be the definition of a nochri, but rather a ger toshav, but since ger toshav is not accepted today, then the nochri with a nefesh Elokis(G-dly soul) must be a brother in exile, per Rambam, Hilchot Issurei Bi'ah 14:7 and Hilchot Melachim 10:12 and such a human should be rescued, bringing about geulah, the Redemption of the world.
