There has been much clamor made on the many Geulah and Moshiach forums about the cosmic mincha gedolah. Of course there seems to be some discrepancy on which date it is supposed to be. Most gedolim have held that it is the first of Av of this year and a minority have suggested it is the 25th of Tammuz.
I want to first say that I believe the date has significance, but that we shouldn’t be caught up with trying to find out what “climactic event” occurred on either of those two days. Our emunah is based on HaShem running events the way he sees fit and not trying to impress on them what we want. Meaning, trying to pigeon hole the tremendous and transformative events of our time period into predefined time frames can be a downer.
That being said I want to focus on what I believe is the significant event or series of events happening over this period of time. Everyone has watched and seen how the real possibility of an American default and downgrade has increased in the past few days. A seeming sense of insanity has rippled through Washington, D.C. as the divisions have only grown. I for one have believed it was going to go this way for a few months, but it has grown apparent to all in the last few days. Yet, what does this mean for Geulah/Redemption?
These are the issues I want to tackle in the coming posts:
- Gog U Magog
- The Four Kingdoms
- New World Order
- The Weapon of Moshiach
Each of these could be a post unto itself, but I will break it down into two posts following this one. Before I close with this introductory post I want to reiterate what the Tzaddikim have said about what we are going through and that ultimately we need Emunah. It will get scary for all of us but we must know that everything is for the best and for our own good!
