Prayers for the Government, for Redemption, and for Diaspora Jewry - Elul 5782/2022New prayers to replace the false messianism and faux-patriotism offered up by the OU and the USCJ. May God save America. And may God save the rest of the world, if necessesary, from America.

Revised Prayer for our Country and for the Final Redemption - Adar 5784/2024New prayer for the secular government, to replace the OU's prayer for the safety of the American military and the USCJ's "prayer for our country" found in its Lev Shalem Siddur, taking the latter as a template. We pray for fulfillment of Isaiah 2:2-3 "come let us ascend", and Jeremiah 29: "build houses and dwell in them", and remove the prayer for Isaiah 2:4 "nation shall not lift up sword against nation" into the separate prayer for Israel and for final redemption. May God save America from its own pride and hubris, and save American Jews from their avodah zarah of false messianism and faux-patriotic jingoism.
Haggadah for Egyptian NoahidesA commemoration of the day of retribution on Egypt, solemn assembly, as a day of atonement and penitence for our national perversion, a memorial of the slaying of our ancestors' firstborns as divine judgement for their sins.
Prayer for forgiveness after confession and renunciation of seeking deliverance from U.S. and foreign militariesConfession and renunciation of the Orthodox Union's prayer for the victory of the American military, which assigns them the messianic role "abolishing every rule of evil" in order to accomplish salvation from terror. We also renounce the suggestion that America is the promised land and light to the nations that will bring about the world peace prophesied in Isaiah 2:4.
Morning Blessings with Meditative intentions ברכות השחר עם כונותMorning blessings with morning routine and creative intentions. Distinctions given for Jews and Noahides, and for men and women.
Noachide Covenant: the commandments, the blessing and the purpose, the rainbow sign of the covenant, the signs of the times, the sons and daughters, the test and the trial, the judgement and the sentence, the redemption, the promise, the prophecy, and the praise.Prior to conversion, a G*d fearing gentile must be taught his obligations and opportunities under the universal Torah, and be allowed the opportunity to confess, repent, and begin to rectify his sins under it, and atone like Noah our father. We should succeed at the few commands before adding more.
Jews must remember this covenant, if they've forgotten it, and do the same teshuvah, and then act the part of the priestly kingdom by bearing light to the nations.
You must be a mensch first in order to become a Jew. Or a woman of valor (eshet hayil) like Ruth.
Noachide Covenant: the seven commandments, the meaning of life, and the final cause of human natureA G*d fearing gentile should have the opportunity to learn his or her blessings and obligations according this universal (catholic) covenant of the Torah, and for the purpose of bearing this "light to the nations" (Isaiah 49:6) the Jewish people are appointed as a "kingdom of priests, a holy nation(Exodus 19:6)."
A Noachide should allowed the opportunity to confess, repent, and begin to rectify his sins under it, and atone like Noah our father, prior to taking on more obligations. Jews must also remember that they are obliged under this universal covenant, and this is our common bond with other nations and all humanity. All humans have the opportunity for Teshuvah - Turn and repent! Return to G*d. Relationship with the great King happens through his holy law: if there is no obedience to his command, there is no authentic relationship.
You must first become a mensch, before attempting to convert to Judaism. If you do convert, do so as a woman of valor (eshet hayil) like Ruth, or a like a man worthy of her. And if you remain in your original calling as a righteous human being and a Noachide, strive to be mensch who "walks humbly with his G*d", before attempting to teach messianic prophecies and their alleged or future fulfillments.
