I was so moved by this story that was
reported in Israeli newspapers and
websites a soldier in an elite IDF unit
who's not Jewish spend the last 10
months studying Torah and Judaism in
order to undergo a
conversion on October 7th
2023 Torah in the morning he and his
unit were sent to Kar Gaza Fierce
battles erupted and it took them two
days to clean out the village of Hamas
terrorists in the coming days this
soldier who was identified with a name
beginning with an a was sent with his
unit to Northern Israel where Israel
faces the threat of kisala at the border
of Lebanon on a few weeks ago this
Soldier visited the military Rabin Court
in charge of conversion in the Army he
asked the judges to expedite the process
which he began more than 10 months ago
standing in front of three judges of the
rabinal Court they asked him many
questions about Torah about Judaism
about his commitment to Jewish
observance to see if he was indeed
eligible for a conversion according to
Jewish law but then one of the Rabin
judges turned to him and asked him why
now why are you so eager in the middle
of a war to expedite the conversion
process the soldier in a voice choked
with tears said this I really want to
come here today and complete the
conversion process because I know that I
may die in battle and if that happens
God forbid I want to die as a
Jew no eye remained dry in the room on
that very day the conversion process was
completed today he's a full Jew times of
adversity bring out the worst in some
people and the best in others some
people now are screaming from The River
To The Sea Palestine shall be free
calling essentially for the genocide of
Jews and others say ah I wish I could be
a Jew Nathan balik is an Australian
actor he has around 4 million followers
this is what he recently shared you know
I love this nation uh I love the Jewish
people where we as Christians need to
stand with these people who have faced
so much but weren't you afraid to lose
some followers 2016 I was in Iraq uh
volunteering in uh a place that was
bringing emergency aid to people fleeing
Isis and I remember making a deal with
Hashem in that moment of time that
whatever it cost to follow you to serve
you and uh to be a light to people it's
all yours if I lose every single
follower if I lose every single fan if I
lose you know my jobs my career um even
my own life if it's to glorify Hashem I
put it on the table what do you think
that we as Israelis as Jewish people
around the world need to do better in
order for the world to know the truth
you I'm going to be honest you know it's
a tragic reality that Hamas brought this
nation together it's it's a tragic
reality that it was Hamas that brought
these people together and I'm glad that
that this nation is coming together
because for the last eight months you've
been divided over judicial reforms and
politics and left versus right and it
was Hamas that brought you together and
so if I was talking to the Jewish people
now listening and watching this I would
say don't let it be Hamas that keeps you
together let it be Hashem the clarity of
the soul in such challenging moments is
all inspired Hing at these times you and
I realize that all my soul and your soul
really wants is to be a channel for
truth light love Redemption and Oneness
all I really want is to truly be
connected to the source of all truth and
love all we really want isus Oneness
with Hashem all we really want is a
world filled with Divine love the world
of Messiah happy
