I love his quote “Don’t get religious, get Godly.”
I'm a Christian & I have never heard the Word explaind so well I Salute u Sir
God has directed me to your teachings! I prayed as a Christian to be shown the TRUTH & to grow
Thank you Rabbi
YAH bless you, rabbi Friedman and keep you safe in every vway!
SHALOM! Todà rabah!❣💙🕎
Yes I am converting to be a Jew ...christianity is made up I think!
I’m so glad their is a rabbi like you we can listen and watch online. When practical wisdom comes from you and people can use it and live happily with the knowledge.
I agree well said....
Practical wisdom from the man whose son is an abuser and says spooky things like grown men are attracted to 13 year old girls, rape is not so bad it's more the effect of it...etc. Of course the title of this video is a lie to trap people into religion...
You don't need "their is" when "there is" does the job.
Cheers.
The guy in the vid is part of an extremist sect that wants to destroy christianity by turning them into noahides.
I'm sorry it's not THEIR, it is THERE. It's time to learn a difference. It's basic English grammar. And I'm polish.
I don’t really know what teaching I follow. All I know is this man here speaks the truth.
Same! ❤️🌺🌸
This is my Rabbi
Thankyou Rabbi for this shiur. This really helped me change the way in which I serve Hashem. I didn't realize how much I was trying to be religious, like the book 'How to be the most religious person in the world.' I was too busy with trying to look it on the outside whilst neglecting the true service for Hashem from my heart. Saying autonomous and empty prayers and actions. No wonder I was looking outside of myself for approval from others. Now I can serve Hashem with kavanah and my own path has begun to unfold before me. Thankyou for being true and real in your shiurim. I went straight to my heart. I got something new from all that I've listened to so far.

this process repeated again and again even nowadays
renewal of religion also have had the same aspects
Keep on playing those thoughs & keys until you find the Truth. God Speed

Long life to this amazing brilliant man! There’s no one like him, ever! Please don’t stop doing these videos, I so enjoy listening to you, you inspire me.

Rabbi you are intelligent beyond imagination, and this is mind blowing period. The truth all step of the way, by the way I am a Sheik (Muslim)
I love this man. You see this kids? This is what wisdom looks like.
I’m Polish catholic… there’s a lot of tension between our nations and religions…years of European history …
what a smart person!!!!! I love his lectures! Greetings from Detroit!
Eastern Rite (Byzantine) here. There’s also conflict from the prejudices of long ago, but the new generations don’t have that, not in the US.
That was a great speech. Insightful, funny, articulate - i've really enjoyd it. Greetngs from a Greek Orthodox Christian from Athens/Greece. Shalom , Rabbi Friedman and thank you :)
He wanys to destroy christanity he is a chabad rabbi
@@ReverbRevival519 my comment stands.
I have never heard anything about being needed by God before in my life. Thank dear Sir.
Nice comment sir. I thank you.
I'm not Jewish but I love this Rabbi, so full of wisdom and humour.
@Le Ed -- Ny reply may not be the best, but allow me to give it a try: Reality is circular, it is not square, but viewing it as such is a very widespread misunderstanding which we have lived with since,... well, the dawn of religion. Rabbi Friedman does give very fine answers on his way around the circle of living, of grace, loving, and of square lens problems. And in my view, he does it wonderfully.
@Le Ed The scientists simply fulfilled God‘s need to create new things in this world.
Yeah, made me laugh couple times
Very wise words, I am a Jew and I am glad someone who can confirm what I believe all along!
I’m Irish and I’ve always loved the and envied in a kind way Jewish folk a decent way of life and wisdom all around you. Us the other peoples are so confused and messed up truly your the chosen people for sure remember this my friend regard’s from Ireland.
sometimes these so called needs that i have really blinded me and caused me many griefs. but from now on i will trust the Lord more than I did before. Thank you Rabbi Mannis.
Kindness is Religion .... Thank you Rabbi 🙏
It's the only religion I believe in.
I love your ideas Rabbi Friedman, my mind and heart is overwhelmed with humour and happiness right now, thank you.
I like this man. So glad I found him here. My Rabbi is like him, that's why I keep going back.
Rabbi manis friedman doesnt mention any torah sources for the things he says
@daniel דניאל Ok But he needs sources for saying hell isnt that bad, When In fact its 60 times Hotter Than Fire On The first Level! By cooling people off Yeah They might, Yeah It might temporarily relive there worry, But When They die They will suffer tremendously Unfortunately. I hope They repent
@@factmachine1860 Rabbi Singer has also said that hell is not a permanent thing, only for the most evil of people.
@@factmachine1860 so you know that how? Have you been there?? Didn’t think so
Not bringing sources - this is simply his unique style of speaking. I have had the pleasure of learning from texts with him and I can attest that he’s actually a very well-versed Torah scholar (he even served as one of the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s redactors) but his aim here is not to inundate with sources but rather to distill the essence of the mystical teachings of Torah - and deliver in a delightful and palatable way that anyone can receive. After a while listening to him, you may be inspired to study the sources in Chabad chassidic teachings yourself!
I don’t know what I would do without you,Rabbi. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom to this guilt ridden Christian.
@Höher wertiger
I dont know
Where is her heart
So brilliantly explained ...actually if we stop being religious...focus only on what God needs from us...Thanks Rabbi..for the eye opener....I hope all religious leaders listen to you....
Thank you Rabbi. My son said that and I said it back *I didn't ask to be born either* Just love your knowledge.
I've been watching the rabbi every night now God bless him
Those videos are priceless , and thank you is an understatement . Am so grateful .. ❤️ ❤️ 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 ❤️
Love it! 💖🌹 Religion doesn't bring joy and love to my life, relationship with my Creator and my loved ones does!
@Mohamud Ahmed I agree . But theirs a millions diffrent views about what god wants lol
I'm not Jewish but I love this guys words of
Wisdom.
Should be Jewish.
Thank you, this is my Rabbi
Just when I thought I was hell bound... I stumbled on this guy🙏 for me...
Wow as an atheist that was some powerful words
Sitting alone listening to Rabbi Made me laugh out loud to myself .
I like this man a lot !
Only after leaving religion was I shown my true purpose. I stumbled over the simplicity of it. Serve others. Religion serves self. Religious people need their egos fed.
Thank you rabbi!! שלום
Rabbi Friedman sharing
'The Greatest Law Never Writen'
Thank you Rabbi Freidman. You speech is enlightening and entertaining. You have encouraged me to understand the Kabbala and how to answer questions and comments without producing anger.
Thank you Rabbi for the words of wisdom.
An absolute eye opener !!! Thanks from Holland.
Wow! I feel like I'm in school with a great teacher!
I don't have any religion but i love God more than everything. We have to praise only the one who created heaven and earth no one else. I love and respect anybody who loves Him this is why I respect you rabbi. You are funny and smart
Am a jew and am a new subscriber am glad to hear this🙏🙏🙏
I never met this Rabbi in person, but yet I can proudly say He is my teacher. Fine-tuning to the universal frequency and contributing to the eternal strings of music is what we were born for, We are energy so we have a frequency and all we need is to fit in harmoniously with our creator. Religion is a deviation from this simple reality, we don't need any religion. A common path that can define our role as a component of the universe is good enough.
my dad always said dont be religious, be jewish. judaism is not a religion. i never understood what he meant back then.
Judaism should be, is meant to be ,above Religion ,which is what many of us forget.
God bless you, Rabbi! I really appreciate your insightful program.
I concur completely with you: religion seeks self-gain for its practioner. Spirituality seeks to surrender self to GOD. To ask for HIS assistance in loving HIM, with all of our heart , mind, and soul, so that HIS WILL, and not our own, is done.
Me encanta su sentido del humor!!! Soy su fan #1 saludos desde Tampico, Tamaulipas Estimado Rabbino🌹
What a kind and gentle teacher. Thank you.
At the five and 15 minute mark they were two advertisements for Christianity... Maimonides maintains if you pray to anything other than the Creator, the almighty God, you are effectively idol worshipping and you will never be saved, most Christians don't realize this. This is very fundamental for them to achieve the afterlife
There is a difference between law: you ought! And grace through love: I want. Ought vs. Want. Law or Grace. Justice or. Mercy. Justice means I must go to prison. Mercy means I forgive you. I need mercy and grace otherwise I get law and justice.
Hello Ted Bates. Your comment intrigues me. I agree with the basic premise. I just wonder if "grace and mercy" can exist without "law and justice". For example: if someone likes to do harm to others, like killing people, how long should we show "grace and mercy" before we use "law and justice"? This is an issue I have struggled with for quite some time. What is your opinion on this?
Many thanks for your reply in advance. Most kind regards
@@annturi5826 We condemn the sin, but we always love the sinner. We do this because every soul is a part of our soul and a part of the Yehovah. Yehovah is One. We are a part of Yehovah. We are all One. If your right hand cut your left hand, would you amputate your left? No, because it is a part of you.
Thank you @@hcharton5722 for your valuable reply; it is highly appreciated.
Most kind regards
@ellenfrancis67 thank you dear friend, I think the best answer I can give is that grace and mercy make law and justice possible- and vice versa. They temper each other. In fact, law and justice without grace and mercy cannot really exist. It is just that we show mercy. I am both spirit and human. To protect my humanness I do have to draw boundaries. To nurture my spirit, I must forgive. It is through grace that we can forgive. I pray that like our Loving Source, I am slow to anger, and quick to forgive. Many Blessings.
One is the father, the other is the mother. And the Syrian is the other. Syrian-XM. LOL
This was amazing. Thank you. Blessings to you!
I'm Christian and I actually binge watch anything I can find of Rabbi Friedman. It's always eye opening. I'm doubting some aspects of Christian beliefs though.
Same here
This man gives off Carlin vibes, i like it.
We found a Jewish George Carlin.
killertaco97 Carlin is too confrontational though. I’m not even sure what qualifies Carlin other than his being famous for being a contrarian. Jewish Rabbis on the other hand are ALWAYS very well educated and experienced.
“was confrontational...”. ^ I agree that this rabbi has the “opened up ... come at me” posture which helps.
George Carlin knew about their subversive and deceptive ways.
Except Carlin didn't change the definition of "religion" for the purpose of special pleading.
My mother with her wickedness she turned to religion..what happened next was living with a complete covert narcissistic woman who would stand infront of church and donate millions, show off in church while never eating with us,never doing anything with us..i hated gospel,hated church, hated all that relates becaudr to me it is evil.
THIS IS SO VERY STOICAL. GRATEFULLY INDIFFERENT. THE GOOD MEANS LIVING WELL. LIFE FOR MAN IS AN ART.
I’m a christian It help me a lot to learn more about God from Rabbi friedman
Under the noahide law christianity is considered idol worship and the punishment is beheading, did you know that?
@@protocolsoftheeldersofchic1215 Jews and muslims tigether tell christians they are idol worshipers. Who are you? Someone who only learnt this yesterday?
Amazing stuff . I love to hear this man speak .
I'm a Christian but I agree , religion is man controlling other men and usually ends up with man receiving glory instead of our creator.
Sir, I just discovered you yesterday, &
I am so glad/great ful, that I did.
Thank you, Rabbi Friedman.
Yep Yep ! Great Video Rabbi Friedman ! I rather be needed than needy then my right side of my heart is working in harmony with the creator thank you !
Thank You! This is most insightful and liberating ever!
reminds me of the verse in the holy quran "inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji3oon" which translates as "to god we belong and to him we shall return" and we are encouraged by proohet muhammad 1400 years ago to recite and remember this verse when life overwhelms us or tragedy afflicts us.
نفسي يؤلم استماع هذه رجل
I luv you Rabbi..we can always count on you to brighten our life.💞☃️
I am Catholic Lebanese and I adore this person
Too good. He is superb. Makes things simple and explains.
I'm much more motivated to do for others, to encourage them, to advice them to succeed, to bring the best out of them. I do it joyfully, but sometimes I think that maybe I don't do enough for myself. I sometimes wish that I was more selfish or more ambitious when it came to me. I'm very critical of this. Interesting view point. Although I'm not so sure that it's not more of a burden to know that we must serve God. lol Thank you, I enjoyed listening to your sermon. BTW I'm a Christian.
I enjoyed this so much. Strong message. Please keep spreading your message
...SO true and close to us we do not even realize its importance; amazing and beautiful teaching.!
It is truly happening that according to God there are people who consider themselves to be wise but are fools before the sight of God
Thank you so much. I thought I was going to have to go this alone.
If your thinking it, there is likely a great amount of people thinking it too.
Manis means sweet in my language. When I hear his name it puts smile in my face
Neptune Joo what language?
@@leab2039 malay
Neptune you should be praying and get from under his teaching.and run as fast as you can from this man.
@@florahavard456 i know :) but i am still intrigued
Same in mine.. 😀
I enjoyed the lecture, regards all the way from middle east, with love 🌹🙏🏼.

Thank you Rabbi Friedman!
Once again you melt away our deepest problems in a few short minutes with humor and truth giving all of us, no matter who we are and what we are going through, the clarity to move forward at whichever place we are in life. May Hashem bless you and your family with a Chasiva V’Chasima Tova with abundant good and long healthy life b’gashmius u’bruchnius in a revealed good way always! Much gratitude from one of your students 😊
I found you today Rabbi
thank you
thank you
thank you
The most beautiful verse in the whole scripture is Revelation 18:4
Come out of her My people.
Out of the bondage of Babylon (meaning confusion). Free from manmade doctrine. No religion, but revelation and relation. To enter into peace in the heart of the Father.
I am the way, the truth and the life ✝️
Religion always pushes redemption to a future event, and keeps us in separation from God. Whereas in His Spirit, we can have life and love abundantly, here and now! Amen and yes!
Sh'koiach, Rav! Great wisdom and deep understanding on the actual meaning of Judaism.
May God bless you, Rabbi: you are a blessing to many.
So uplifting and so intelligent and so articulate...
I really enjoy your lectures/talks.
Shalom. Great message!
Serve God with joy!!! Amen 🙏 Do what he needs!!
This Rabbi says the same thing as I, a born again Christian. Complement to the like minded man.
Wow. I'm so grateful for finding this
Blessings in plenty. Shalom.
You should, I should, we should.
All we do is should all over ourselves.
As a sufferer of chronic pain I especially like this guys message!!!
Amazing! Thanks dear Rabbi!
That’s deep and makes so much sense now!! I’ve never thought about Gods needs and not my needs☺️not needy but needed!!!
Thank you for sharing your wisdom
Thank you once again Rabbi Friedman
I love his speach every time. He's funny and real.
I love the surprise laughter from the back ground 😘😁
I am muslim too.. very enjoy this speech, so deep, meaningful, and we all here to serve our One God.
@yusie rizal Man is created in the image of God not to be a slave of God but a partner. That’s Judaism.
@@Claude_van probably thats the culture since only jews have experience to be "close" enough to feel God's existance compared to islamic history.

@@ISREALYAHWEH3INONE you may not believe the same God, but God of muhammad clearly mention that our God is the same, the God of moses which speak to moses in the valley of tuwa or uwa whether you believe it or not. :D
Thanks very much Rabbi!
Thank you Rabbi
Loved this!
The best jokes, if I may call them , are Jewish jokes! Your humour is intelligent. A traditional Catholic priest asks his Rabbi frien, "Rabbi, when will you ever taste a delicious pork?" The Rabbi casually responded, "Whenever your wife prepares one!"
brilliant . inspiring . thank you Rabbi
Love this guy....Thank you Rabbi..
I don't like to be needy. But to be needed is an unbearable pressure on me! And by G.D. ? I'll never be good enough 😢
This is good. I'm a Christian.
