  If everyone is where Gd intended for them to be spiritually, isn't Moshiach here?  By definition, then,w there be peace as there is no division or strife in GD?

  If the Rashbi reached his personal geula in the cave

  (Even though upon exiting the cave, after writing the Zohar, he was forced back for another year because he and/or his son were destructive.  They exited again after the 13th year and stayed out of the cave only after helping people with their talents).

  Doesn't the fact that the Rashbi reached his personal geula in the cave, let's call it "reaching 100% of one's potential" mean that this is, at least theoretically that this is possible for anyone? When anyone reaches 100% of one's potential one reaches his personal geula. 

  Should someone not reach this maximum (most of us) then there will be a default "boost" where everyone is given a boost to 100%

  Actually there currently nonjews who (appear) to force their way in

  Recently some undercover missionaries who were practicing as rabbis, doing marriages, burials etc were exposed as undercover missionaries

  Is getting rid of corruption the inner desire in the heart to be Gd?

  When is Eliyahu coming?

  It might just be medresh, minhag, etc but don't we say Eliyahu comes to every bris, to every seder, etc? 

  Sure there's temporary coming while being invisible and permanent coming while being visible, but still....

  Is gog/magog war an internal war before GD redeems the heart/life of a Jew.  Make me a sanctuary and I will dwell among them?

  No machlokis in facts?

  I believe that when the Oral Torah was given to Moshe there was only one din for every matter. No machlokis whatsoever. 

  But as with the "broken telephone" game where the single law become distorted after having gone thru many generations and transmissions, aggravated by the dispersion of yidden and yeshivas exponentially greater than all yidden learning from one Moshe in the midbar, R. Yehuda Hanasi violated a fundamental rule not to write down the EXTENT OF THE DEBATE AS IT WAS THEN TO PREVENT FURTHER EXPANSION OF THE PARAMETERS OF THE DEBATE. 

  He set the outer limits of the debate as it was in his time, and there were many factual variations of fact and variations of opinion and din. BH for that for otherwise it would have been irretrievably diluted and distorted by now.

  Is it possible the coming will be based on were youare individually vs collectively.  It says, when Gdjudges, He will Beto you what you are to others.

  For me

  this is all so convoluted. Even your explanation the you can't be in Florida and Siberia at the same time. But you can eg on Zoom,  quantum physics. I am slowly learning the everything in Judaism is a paradox.  All is true.

  There are no factual disputes in Torah?

  Sure when it comes to a subjective feeling whether it's hot or cold, we know there is no one truth on subjectivity. Ask any husband and wife. 

  But don't 2 people come to beis din each claiming the tallis is theirs? And two women each claiming the baby is theirs?

  Psalm 87. v. 6

  The Lord will count, when HE records the people (for judgment, the Jews among them saying)This one was born there (at eternity.  "

  How does this verse fit into all this? Seems it is GD who makes all the decisions.

  Isn't peace in the world

  achieved through doing the specific things that the other rabbis said Eliyahu would do.? Couldn't all of them be right? This is something you have taught since I started learning from you.

  Eliyahu will rehabilitate those innocent people who were wrongly kicked out

  But, those who joined the yidden by force or on error, will get RETROACTIVE kosher ge'eris! Top hashgocha

  Eliyahu will get rid of sinas chinam

  This is exactly reversing the cause of this longest darkest golus.

  We learn that one should be careful not to embarrass anyone

  But an exception is made in general  if the  embarrasser is trying to protect someone.  

  How can anyone be 100% sure that they are protecting the alleged victim from what would otherwise be appropriate permitted embarrassment? Maybe the victim isn't one? Maybe there's another side to the story? Maybe there is justification or context? Maybe the alleged victim is lying? 

  Just as the person who is embarrassing the person has a justification for doing so (allegedly to protect someone) perhaps the person who it's thought to have forced his way into the family of yidden, or some other alleged wrong  has some explanation? 

    On Eliyahu nanovi we can rely to know the real 100% emes, but that isn't so for ordinary people before Eliyahu comes.

  I thought that

  even those who who may appear to be "evil " have a chance to be redeemed.. Eliyahu Hanavi will be able to see inside those people and see the good? And why Eliyahu, and not GD?

  Eliyahu will correct those who deliberately forced their way into the yidden

  Does this ever happen? Which nonjew ever deliberately forced their way into the family of jews? At most some nonjews may have been duped by those who call themselves rabbis the last 200 years to consider themselves to be Jewish.

  Those yidden who dropped out deliberately is another story.

  question

  יראה מפשוטן של דברי הנביאים וכו' שבתחילת ימות המשיח וכו', ושקודם מלחמת גוג ומגוג וכו'. (א"ה משמע מדברי רבינו שקודם (ביאת) [מלחמת] גוג ומגוג יבא אליהו ז"ל דהיינו בתחילה יבא המשיח ואחר כך אליהו זכור לטוב ואחר כך גוג ומגוג. וקשה לענ"ד אחר המחילה רבה מעצמותיו הקדושים דנראה לכאורה היפך ש"ס ערוך בעירובין דף מ"ג ע"ב גבי הא דאיבעיא לן אי יש תחומין למעלה מעשרה או לא וכו' ת"ש וכו' שאני התם דאמר קרא וכו' והא לא אתא אליהו מאתמול ע"כ, הרי מוכח משם דאליהו יבא קודם המשיח הדבר צריך עיון רב אצלי.
