Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

Beware of self-delusion! 
The man who, upon witnessing the wonders and wisdom of Nature, proceeds to say: “this nature is no proof
that a God is behind it!”, disconnects himself so much from reality, that will eventually look upon his own
genitals, and proceed to say: “these genitals are no proof that a man is behind them!
 
What is Reformed Samaritanism? 
Reformed Samaritanism is a sort of moral equivalent to Newton’s Law of Physics (“action and reaction”; 
“cause, and effect”, “sowing and reaping”, “measure for measure”, etc). In other words, the idea that the 
Holy One [blessed be He] has designed His moral universe so as to make it unavoidable for man to “reap” 
whatever is that he has willingly [and without remorse] “planted” upon “the garden” that is our physical 
universe. 
In addition, Reformed Samaritanism is the firm conviction that God is like a loving and caring Father (“But 
Adonai your God refused to listen to Balaam, and 
Adonai your God turned the curse into a blessing for you
because He loves you… Isn’t He your Father who ransomed you?
He made you and established you”- 
Deut. 23:6, & 32:6); not a morally flawed and self centered human being (“The Rock—blameless is His 
work. 
Indeed, all His ways are just. God of faithfulness without iniquity, righteous and upright is He
. Did 
it corrupt Him? No! The blemish is His children’s...”- Deut. 32:4-5). 
Therefore, God’s blameless character prevents Him from being so much concerned with the dribble of human
perfection, as He is with our sincere pursuit of repentance; of Holiness; of a life characterized by justice, 
mercy, humility; and lastly (but not less important), of our desire to “sow” upon our needy fellow creatures 
the same goodness we would wish for ourselves; the goodness portrayed by God’s 10 Supreme Laws-- all of 
which allow His children to earn the right to enjoy a good and abundant “harvest” in the world to come. 
And whence do we get all of this? We get it from the verses that go on to say: “
