The wording of the calling : Declaration of World Leaders
Our world, more than ever, needs the healing that can come only through universal ethical and moral conduct. The core principles that characterize a moral society were defined and codified in the Bible thousands of years ago. These precepts are known as the Seven Universal Noahide Laws, given by the Lord of all mankind through Moses on Mt. Sinai.
The Noahide Laws embrace the belief in one Creator who is the source of all morality, justice and integrity. His universal laws require all people to refrain from murder, robbery, adultery, incest, blasphemy, and cruelty to animals. Likewise, it is incumbent upon all societies to establish courts that dispense true justice. The Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson’s love for humankind was all-encompassing. The Rebbe encouraged and supported global education in order to foster widespread acceptance of the Noahide Commandments, as they are the key to the healing of society, and bring the world closer to the day of Redemption and the advent of the Messiah.
We, the undersigned, hereby declare our appreciation of the Rebbe’s efforts to bring peace and harmony to the world through adherence to these eternal principles, and call upon world leaders and caring men and women everywhere to foster these values and the world moves inexorably towards an era of universal brotherhood and redemption for all humankind.
