Invitation to Greatness

 https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/400504

The gleam in Rav Tzvi Yehuda Kook's eyes sparkled with extra warmth when he met with students from abroad who he hoped would move to Israel. When a Jew lives in Israel, his whole life is a mitzvah. A mitzvah which is equal in weight to all of the mitzvot of the Torah.

    Yet I met secular Israelis back in the 80's who justified their lifestyle by saying "The Torah says if you live in Israel it's worth all the mitzvos so we don't have to keep the rest."

      And I meet Jews who say that they are good Jews in their hearts and that is all that matters

      Yes, but the Chilonim have a Chazal to rely on. Reformers? They're just making that stuff up
