Christmas Mythology
This is a season of myth, legend,
folklore, fantasy, make believe and superstition. In the interest of mental and
spiritual health a few historical facts need to be kept in perspective. I know that
is difficult while being drowned in an emotional/devotional frenzy.
The
Christmas Jesus stories are pure mythology. That is a fact that is accepted and taught in the Religion departments
of every major university in this country, or the world. By "major" university I am talking
about those schools that are free of the financial and academic coercion that
is always present if the school is under the control of a Christian
denomination.
I will
use only one example out of many.
Mithraism (6th century B.C.
On
December 25th, there were glorious
celebrations with bells, hymns, candles, gifts, and "communion" was
observed by the followers.
From
December 25 until the Spring Equinox (Estra or Easter) were the "40
days" which later became Christian Lent. Mithras was finally placed in a rock tomb
called "
The
followers of Mithras believed there would be a day of "judgement"
when non-believers would perish and "believers" would live
forever with Mithras in "paradise," which is a Persian word,
not Hebrew.
All of
these mythological formulas were later absorbed, by diffusion, into the
Christian cult and their rituals.
As
hundreds of eminent scholars have brought to our attention, Christianism is
saturated with the mythology of Mithraism,

I repeat
my opening paragraph: in the interest of spiritual and mental health, a few
historical facts need to be remembered as a balance in perspective. To ignore and
close our eyes to such knowledge is to walk around about a half bubble off
plumb.

is nothing wrong with fantasy, so long as it is recognized as such.

Tribute to the New Moon Revised:
The service of this solar/lunar calendar of TORAH
Realizing
that even some Israelites use the dark phase of the moon to call the new month,
I would like to add one obvious fact. By definition, there can only be a New
Moon, per se, after the dark phase interval and when the
If the
dark phase of the moon begins the First Day of the month, then when the

the absence of seeing the moon for forty-eight or more hours that enables us to
identify the approaching Crescent Sign in the Heavens (mentioned in Genesis
1:14) that recognizes the moon as being New. And upon Sighting this New Crescent we
distinguish it as being the New Moon and the time of the New Month, as well.
PLEASE
NOTE: The Hebrew New Year is also determined
by the LIGHTS in the Heavens and not by the sighting of barley, as some
Black Hebrew Israelites and European Jews advocate.
***
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will
make,
shall remain before me, saith the LORD,
so shall your seed and your name remain.
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to
another,
and from one sabbath to another,
shall all flesh come to worship before me,

appointed the moon for seasons
Psalm
104:19
The
first Sign in the Heavens to provide the start of days, years and seasons
can only begin with the Sighting of the New Moon Crescent - that which we can
see in order for it to serve as a Sign and enable us to begin counting our
days and months. Just imagine not being
able to see the moon at all. How then
could it be appointed for a Sign or for seasons?
The
natural thought might be that the moon is like a living being. It is born, grows, reaches maximum size, then
fades and dies, going through all these stages in one month. Even today, we still talk of the thin
crescent in the western sky as a new moon and the thin crescent
in the eastern sky a month later as the old moon. Half way between is the full moon. As I explained earlier, this cycle of phases
of the moon established the month as a unit of time, and the first calendars
were based on this. ISAAC ASIMOVS
GUIDE TO EARTH AND SPACE, pages 79 and 80

silver. To observe the Sign in the
heavens as being the New Moon Sighting is NOT worshipping the moon, but
rather it is doing as we are COMMANDED in Genesis 1:14:
And
God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide
the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for
days, and years:
Some
people feel that the moon has no light, but according to GODs WORD to HIS
Prophets, it most certainly does: Isaiah 13:10; Isaiah 30:26; Jeremiah 31:35;
Ezekiel 32:7.

your God.
Numbers
10:10
Contrary
to the belief of some Israelites, the moon does indeed shine! Even if the Moon shines with the aid of the
sun, i.e., reflects the light of the sun, IT STILL SHINES! And the fact
that Scripture attests to this fact, is whats important: Isaiah 60:19; Jeremiah 31:35; and Ezekiel
32:7. Therefore, Genesis 1:14 is
proof enough that we must use the shining New Moon Crescents as
SIGNS, AND
FOR SEASONS, AND FOR DAYS, AND FOR YEARS:
Some
Israelites, along with White Jews, use the dark phase of the moon to determine
the start of a new month. If the dark phase of the moon lasts for 2-3
days, then which of these days is supposed to be the distinguishing Sign
that determines the First Day of the month?
Or do we just arbitrarily select either/or depending on the imaginations
of our hearts?
On the

times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of
weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. II Chronicles 8:12,13
Unless
there is an emergency, please try not to buy or sell on this day. Conduct all financial and business
transactions prior to the day of the New Moon.
Interesting enough, II Kings 4:23,24 constitutes the New Moon as being a
day to seek the man of God. Although
the New Moon is NOT a Day of Rest, Our GOD did set it aside for recognition:
Blow
up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast
day. Psalm 81:3
And
it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one
Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the
LORD. Isaiah 66:23
When
will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn?
Amos 8:5
Probably,
the Scripture that most determines and clarifies the fact that our New Moons
are Feast Days is Ezekiel 45:17:
And
it shall be the princes part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and
drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the NEW MOONS, and in the
Sabbaths, in ALL SOLEMNITIES of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and
the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make
reconciliation for the HOUSE OF ISRAEL.
(Caps. are mine.)
Unequivocally,
our New Moons are included in these SOLEMNITIES mentioned in Ezekiel 45:17.
Likewise
the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before the LORD in the Sabbaths [Feasts NOT 7th Day Sabbaths*] and
in the NEW MOONS. Ezekiel
46:3 (Brackets are mine.)
Thereby,
this verse justifies the First Day of each month being our Feast Day. It should be
realized that the Feast Days that Our GOD selected (Leviticus 23rd Chapter) are
Holy Convocations, i.e., on these days we cannot do any work. However, because King Saul observed the New
Moon as a Feast Day, we have every reason to do so, as well. We also have learned that our forefathers
traveled to the
When
we return to our heritage and worship YIHOVAH according to HIS Ways, then we
can establish our own Calendar of the Universe, whereby, the days of the New
Moon and all GODs Holy Days will be recognized by the whole entire World. And I am sure
that it will be the desire of the Righteous Remnant and ALL the world to make a
Feast to the Most High GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel every First Day
of the Month.
ALSO,
I believe that if Lot (Genesis 19:3) and Abraham (Genesis 21:8) can proclaim Feasts,
then there is no stipulation for NOT establishing Feast Days, as we so desire. Therefore,
to proclaim a feast to EXALT the Holy ONE of Israel on the First Day of each
month is quite acceptable - given the Scripture (above) regarding worshipping Our
LORD GOD of ISRAEL, Our SAVIOR, on the New Moons. We should know that throughout the Tanakh
Hebrew Israelites called for feasts for various occasions. Therefore, we are within our rights to
observe a Feast every New Moon to Our GOD, the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob/Israel. And those of us who
love this WONDERFUL GOD and who choose HIM to EXALT HIM for being the ONLY LORD
and SAVIOR can be at liberty to use the day of the New Moon to show forth HIS
PRAISE in a feast and worship HIM in Jerusalem FOREVER.

heritage of the heathen. The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all
his commandments are sure. Psalm
111:7
GODs
Holy Seventh Day Sabbath of REST is not only one of HIS Greatest WORKS of all
time, but this Holy Day is an extraordinary SIGN between this Most High GOD,
the CREATOR and HIS Chosen People, the Children of Israel! This Seventh Day also marks the Anniversary
of GOD ending the Creations of the Heavens, Earth, man, and all that is
therein.
Thus
the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the
seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh
day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day,
and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God
created and made. Genesis 2:1 - 3
And
he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, Tomorrow is the
rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake today,
and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to
be kept until the morning.
See,
for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the
sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man
go out of his place on the seventh day.
Exodus 16:23,29
And the LORD said unto Moses, Come
up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone,
and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. Exodus 24:12

to ALL GODs LAW, as well as for HIS
Holy Seventh Day Sabbath of Complete REST, i.e., how we are supposed to keep
it, as well as the consequences for profaning it. And there are no exceptions.
CONCERNING HOLY CONVOCATION
The
issue stemming from the meaning of Holy Convocation written in Leviticus 23rd
Chapter is real, and the interpretation is grossly misunderstood. Holy Convocation does not mean To
Gather. And the sin committed by
traveling and gathering on the CREATORs Holy Sabbath of Complete REST has
grave consequences (Exodus 31:12 - 18).
Conclusive
evidence that holy convocation DOES NOT mean to assemble is provided in the
passage on Passover. In Exodus 12:16 we
are told that Passover is a holy convocation but yet, we are Commanded to
observe this High Holy Day with our immediate families and only to join with
another family if ones members are too few for the lamb (Exodus 12:4). This proves without a doubt that holy
convocation cannot mean to assemble, but rather to keep the holy days
HOLY. Some call attention to the fact
that because Israelites were Commanded to
turn in the morning and go into
their tents (Deuteronomy 16:5-7) that
this is proof of an assembly. Those
Israelite families that joined with others are the ones GOD Commanded to return
to their tents.

QUESTIONS ON OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE TRIVIA TO PONDER:
"And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to
be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered,
yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my
strength. And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to
raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will
also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation
unto the end of the earth." Isaiah
49:5,6
Is this a Message that Isaiah prophesied for
Israelites living today?
***
"And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I
shall inherit it? And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old,
and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a
turtledove, and a young pigeon." Genesis
15:8,9
What is the difference in a
turtledove and a young pigeon?
***
"And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was
separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou
art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land
which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. And I will
make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of
the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered." Genesis 13:14 16
Is this passage concerning "the dust of the
earth" just a reference to the Twelve Tribes of Jacob or to both the Seed
of Ishmael and the SEED of Jacob Israel?
***

Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once:

Sugar:
A Blessing and A Curse
With diabetes on the rise, childhood obesity a crisis, theres an
increasing necessity to explore ways to reduce or even eliminate our
consumption of sugar. Although sugar is a natural part of most foods we consume
whether natural in the fruits we eat or broken down into sugars during the
digestive processes when vegetables breads, crackers, or cereals are eaten. It
is a natural component of our dietary requirement. Whether we know sugar as sucrose, dextrose,
maltose, glucose, lactose, fructose, or molasses, we must take a serious look
at how we can achieve the goal of lessoning or eliminating additional sugars
within our dietary reach, If only we would closely examine alternatives. Lets
start the process by first looking at sugars with a new and heightened
awareness.
Sugars place a significant purpose in our diets because as carbohydrates
they are broken down and utilized by the body to provide quick energy to
accomplish work and for the operation of cellular activity. By the same token
sugars have been linked to tooth decay, obesity, diabetes, and cancers, even
though it can also be utilized for healing difficult wounds.
Looking for alternatives to refined sugars?
Think refined sugars are your only choices?
Theres a whole host of sweets on our shelves and in health food stores,
if we make a conscious effort to seek them out.
They can liven up our cups of coffee, baked goods, and other foods if
only we learn to appreciate their healthful benefits and learn how to utilize
them. Natural sweeteners like unrefined brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses,
barley malt, rice syrup, and honey are common. Each has its own unique flavor and uses that
will satisfy any craving for sweetness and at the same time provide the
necessary nutrients for energy and cellular activity
The main source of commercial sugar is sugar cane and sugar beets, from
which a variety of sugar products are made: Granulated white sugar is
common, highly-refined all-purpose sugar. Look for organic, unbleached
varieties for a tastier, more natural choice.
But do be aware that in the processing of this sugar non kosher items
such as pork bones may have been used in processing according to Shahrazad Ali.
This form of sugar is not the best. Unrefined brown sugar (a.k.a. raw
sugar) is slightly purified, crystallized evaporated cane juice. This
distinctive, caramel-flavored sugar comes in a variety of flavors Cane juice is
made by extracting and then dehydrating cane juice, with minimal loss of
original flavor, color, or nutrients
Honey is the better choice to use other than over processed sugars,
because it is already digested and processed by the honey bee. It is the
worlds oldest-known unrefined sweetener and its flavor and color are derived
from the flower nectar collected by bees.
This fact accounts for the wide variety of honeys available. The
varieties are:
Clover: mild flavored and
readily available in colors ranging from water white to light amber
Wildflower: generally dark
with a range of flavors and aromas depending on the flowers that provided the
nectar
Alfalfa: light in color with
a delicate flavor
Orange Blossom: a distinctive
citrus flavor and aroma and light in color
Keep honey in an airtight container below 50°F. Liquid honey will eventually crystallize but
can be returned easily to a liquid state by placing the container in warm water
for a few minutes.
Health note: Honey should not
be fed to children less than one year old because it can contain spores of
Clostridium Botulinum, the bacteria that causes botulism.
Other types of sweeteners that can be utilized are:
Maple syrup which is simply
the boiled down tree sap of the sugar maple tree. As for maple sugar, its
twice as sweet as white sugar and has a delicious, caramel flavor.
Until the arrival of the honeybee (introduced from
Molasses
With its strong, fragrant dark caramel flavor, expect great things from
molasses. Its about 65% as sweet as sugar, and is in fact produced during the
refining of sugar. (The syrup remains after the available sucrose has been
crystallized from sugar cane juice.)
Many of us remember sorghum molasses that was eaten in the south in
place of syrups.
Light molasses is from the first boiling of the cane, dark molasses is
from the second, and blackstrap, the third.
My grandfather used molasses or honey with flowers of sulfur for spring
cleansing.
Barley Malt and Rice Syrup
Made from soaked and sprouted barley, which is dried and cooked down to
make a thick syrup, barley malt is a sweetener thats slowly digested
and gentler on blood sugar levels other than other sweeteners. Rice syrup
is made in almost the same way, and is usually a combination of rice and
barley. Some of the best Chai teas are sweetened with rice syrup.
Agave:
Agave nectar is a multipurpose sweetener obtained from the core of the Mexican
Agave cactus, the same plant whose sap is a source of tequila. Agave nectar may
resemble honey. Keep in mind Agave
nectar is about 25% sweeter than sugar and that darker agave nectar has a more
robust flavor with a pleasant hint of molasses, too.
Other substitution and sweeteners are Turbinado, or
Sucanat granules or powders that can be
added to solids or liquids for sweetening.
Unsweetened apple sauce or other pureed fruits can be used to sweeten
oatmeal or other cooked cereals or use fruit juices to cook cereals in,
eliminating the need to sprinkle processed sugar granules on the cereal after
cooking.
Last but certainly not least there is Stevia. And according to a
botanical website the Stevia Leaf also known as - Stevia rebaudiana, Sweet
Leaf, Yerba Dulce, Sweet Herb of
So, you see there are alternatives you can use to reduce the consumption
of processed sugars and together with careful scrutinizing of food labels for
sugar content, using, alternative sweeteners, limiting additional use of
processed sugar, you will learn to reduce calories for weight reduction, and
control blood sugar levels.
With a little research and practice you can make all kinds of delicious
recipes blessed with the best natural sweeteners already available to us.

6 SUPER DRINKS/SUPER ELIXIRS of LIFE
#1--WATER (distilled)----Businesses
can NOT improve on WATER. No matter how much they tell us they have and can!
Drink it everyday, all day. And drink at least 32 ounces (QUART). Need that
WATER both INSIDE and OUTSIDE your BLOOD CELLS. Many of do not realize that
DEHYDRATION prunes the cells and they die off. In other words, a lot of us are
DYING out because we are DRYING out! WATER your cells...
#2--GRAPE JUICE----From JUICED grapes or store bought UNSWEETENED GRAPE JUICE w/a
little NON-ALUMINUM BAKING SODA. Contains RESEVERATROL that the CELLS need to
RESIST or SLOW DOWN their SENESCENCE (AGING). You can also DILUTE the grape
juice and soak your face in it. Let it dry. Makes a great COSMETIC property.
Especially, dealing with EYES (dark circles, bags, wrinkles). Get the GRAPESEED
OIL as a MOISTURIZER too...
#3--SEA SALT WATER----Drink what FISHES drink which makes them so
HEALTHY (when we are not POLLUTING their homes that is). 72-something-odd VITAL
MINERALS from IODINE to MAGNESIUM and other TRACE minerals like MOLYBEDNUM. The
medical world has taken us off SALT when we need it most in todays
society---because of the STRESS levels we live under. NO SALT, NO SPARK!! (its
the FIRE of the body and we need to act like PROMETHEUS and STEAL it back!
lol!). You NEED that SALT!! Especially, dealing with Stress. Lack of SALT
contributes to CHRONIC FATIGUE, INSOMNIA, HEADACHES, OSTEOPOROSIS among other
issues. If you are having any of these problems start drinking SEA SALT
WATER(half a teaspoon to 16 oz of distilled water). Salt also promotes
SEROTONIN and LITHIUM production which are key HORMONES which help you SLEEP,
RELAX by feeding your NERVES...
#4--SUGAR WATER----Say what?! Yup. Don't HATE on SUGAR WATER my friends
(excuse the MCCAINism). When weez were shorties, we drank sugar water all the
time. But at any rate, the short of the story is this: SUGAR is another
NUTRIENT we have been SCARED off of (see SALT above). Again, you need it. But
not like we normally EAT it, which is mostly as an EMPTY, INORGANIC substance.
Try SUCANAT which is a BROWN, NATURAL sugar that actually has VITAMINS in it!!
Hallejah, rite!? Try a quarter teaspoon in WARM water at least once a day. Why?
Did you realize that LACK of SUGAR can ALSO make you DIABETIC!! Yessir! Thatz
because when you deprive yourself TOO MUCH of SUGAR you MUCK up your PANCREAS'
ability to REGULATE sugar in your body!! And it defeats the purpose. Long story
short, start including NATURAL sugars like SUCANAT back into your EATING
PROGRAM. If you are DIABETIC, work it out with your FRANKENMED (doctor)...
#5--GREEN DRINKS----The best GREEN DRINKS should definitely include
KALE, SEA MOSS, CUCUMBERS and darker green LETTUCES, also MUSTARD, TURNIPS and
so on (but just a lil bit of them because they are strong)! Blend a TOMATO in
there too. And you good. Do not sweat all these commercials about BUYING green
drinks.
With these 4 greens and tomato you are getting all 4 TISSUE
SALTS: CALCIUM, MAGNESIUM, POTASSIUM and SODIUM----plus IRON and other Trace
minerals!
#6--FAT----SURPRISE,
I know some of yawl may not think of FAT as a LIQUID to drink--but, indeed, it
is! Its just as IMPORTANT as WATER! (ounce per ounce). WOMEN, especially, get
DEPLETED of Fat (around the REPRODUCTIVE area in many cases which, quite
naturally, AFFECTS a WOMANs ability to GET PREGNANT or even CARRY her CHILD to
TERM)! How much? Not MUCH 1-2 ounces (which aint nothing but 2-4 tablespoons)
per week and you are good. More if your situation is more drastic (say, like,
you are having a HARD time conceiving)!! You need more OIL. The best ones are
COCONUT, OLIVE, COD LIVER, FLAXSEED, even BUTTER! (if thatz more your FLAVA)...
I'm just the MESSENGER!

HOW MUCH BLOOD IS IN GROUND BEEF?
Have you ever thought about how much blood is in
ground beef? Well, you do the test. Place a pound of ground beef in a bowl and
cover it in water to be left overnight. Add
a little salt, but the experiment will work just as well if you don't. The next day do notice all the blood in the
bowl. Take a handful of the beef, about
the size of a tennis ball, and squeeze out as much of the water and blood as
possible. Turn and squeeze several
times.
If people have not followed this or other
procedure for eliminating blood from ground beef, then just imagine how much of
this blood is consumed. Perhaps there
are better methods of extracting blood from ground beef, and if so, I'd like to
hear about them.
If salt was added to the overnight water, then
consider the amount of salt used when seasoning the meat before cooking.

6 Ways to Reduce Inflammation -- Without a Statin Drug
Experts
predict that as a result of the so-called JUPITER study, which seemed to show
that the statin drug Crestor lowers the risk of heart attacks and strokes in
those with high levels of inflammation, will lead to millions of people being
put on statin drugs.
But the benefits were actually tiny -- about 0.72 percent of the
statin takers in the trial had a heart attack or stroke, compared with 1.5
percent of those taking placebos.
Instead of a
statin drug that comes with dangerous side effects, try these six measures instead:
1.
Stop smoking. Smoking hardens the arteries and
increase inflammation. But research shows you can reverse all the damaging
effects to your arteries within 10 years of quitting.
2.
Think olive oil,
fish, and nuts. People
who stick with a Mediterranean-style diet based on fruits, vegetables, nuts,
and olive oil can lower their levels of inflammation. It works by increasing
the amount of foods you eat that are rich in omega-3 fats, which fight
inflammation.
3.
Get active. Exercise a great way to lower
inflammation without any of the side effects associated with medications.
4.
Shrink your waist
size. If you're a
woman with a waist measurement of over 35 inches or a man with a waist of over 40
inches, you probably have high inflammation. Whittling a few inches off the
waist by reducing your portions and increasing activity can go a long way
toward solving that problem.
5.
Get enough sleep. A new study shows that elderly people
with high blood pressure who sleep less than 7.5 hours a night have
dramatically elevated chances of having a stroke or heart attack. Other
research has shown that both too little and too much sleep increases
inflammation. The American
6.
Reduce stress. High levels of stress hormones can lead
to the release of excess inflammatory chemicals.

REGARDING OTHER MATTERS OF HEALTH AND EXERCISE
As
always, before starting ANY exercise program and/or diet, check with your
doctor and get his approval. This is all
about being safe rather than sorry.
And
if you feel you are suffering from depression, do know that there are
medications available for you. Dont be
embarrassed; this malady goes with the RAT RACE. Therefore, see your doctor, and feel better
fast!
Have
you started that Walking for weight loss and healthy heart routine, yet?
There is no excuse for not going it alone, joining with someone, or even
forming a group to take that walk at least five (5) times a week and for 40
minutes minimum. So, stop procrastinating
and get started. Walk to the tune of
Scripture or your favorite upbeat music.
And if you prefer the quiet, walk and meditate with the Most High. Just make sure that you make time for your
body and soul. Youll see and feel the
difference after just two weeks.

THE 52-WEIGHT-LOSS DIET PLAN
Recently,
I heard on the news that soon people will be spending a dollar out of every
five for medical expenses. But if we are
healthy, we dont have to fall prey to this reckoning. As we grow older, we gain weight. I am a witness! And guess what? We do not need this extra load we are
carrying. Therefore, I am doing
something about it.
My
friend and I have decided to embark upon a Weight-Loss Plan to lose 52 pounds
in one year. We have started by
promising to lose one pound a week.
Thus, we hope to lose 52 pounds by the second week in February
2007. We have already started, but its
not too late for YOU to join with us. So,
hop on board and be a NEW HEALTHIER, LIGHTER WEIGHT this time next year!
Some of the things we plan to do are:
-limit our intake of white foods: rice, bread, potatoes, ice cream, sugar, etc.
-eliminate fast foods and processed foods
-walk at least 3 days a week
-do not eat after 8 P.M. drink green tea with mint
-eat more fruits and veggies
-bake rather than fry our meats
-drink plenty of water and tea
-weigh in every Tuesday and E-mail the other party the new
weight status
A
weekly journal is kept of weight lost or gained. And there is
no fair or fun cheating.
If you
do not need to lose 52 pounds, then adjust the plan to the amount of pounds to
lose and time frame appropriate for you.
If you need any help, let me know.
The
Brothers are welcomed to join in the program. By all means, do feel free to
share your progress. List your name, the
date you started and the weight you lose each week, or if you prefer to only
post periodically, then list the date you started and the amount you lost. If you have any special ways to lose a
fast pound here and there, by all means do share.
Lets
start having some fun. The more competition, the more encouraged we
will ALL be to stick with this Weight-Loss-Diet Plan.
On my
first week, I lost four pounds, and I could feel the difference on my walk as I
climbed the hills. My husband and I both
try to walk three days a week for forty-five minutes. We do about four miles each day.
Dont forget to first check with your doctor! Better safe than sorry.
Now, get started and feel good and look even better!

Yet, Americans prefer to live in these United States to raise their
children to believe in this place that has proven itself to be nothing more

that Israelites choose to also make their homes here, when it is perfectly
clear that "America the Beautiful" is none but the epitome of
cruelty, suffering, shame, failure, disgrace, evil and wickedness, particularly
for minorities.
Just as the CREATOR GOD dealt with the wickedness of the peoples in the
days of Noah with the Flood of forty days and forty nights, HE again has plans
to end the scandalous acts against HIS Holy Name, the atrocities, and the
abominations in "America the Beautiful", as well as many other places
on this Earth. And no one is more aware
of GOD's Wrath upon this country than are the descendants of the "Dry
Bones" whose eyes the GOD of Israel has opened. But yet, to my utter bewilderment, my people
do not seek a means to leave these
CONFERENCES
A PLENTY
BUT
SERIOUSLY LACKING IN FULFILLING PROPHECY
All these Israelite conferences and conventions scheduled annually, and
not one is called to make plans for an Exodus.
Don't get me wrong; the more gatherings we have to Magnify the GOD of
Abraham and HIS Righteous LAW, the better.
But our meetings today should be of greater substance, i.e., not only
about the GOD of Israel and HIS LAW and WORD to HIS Prophets, but about fulfilling
prophecy and should benefit HIS People and the Strangers who seek to follow HIS
Ways in the Land and in the Holy City that GOD chose to place HIS Holy
Name.
My problem also with some of these conferences is that they have people
traveling, holding meetings, and even serving hot food at the expense of
workers on GOD's Holy Seventh Day of Complete REST. I can understand how we would want to give
Praise and Glory to the Holy ONE of
"And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great
delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the
fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness
is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the
LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king." I Samuel
15:22,23
King Saul wanted to make supplication to the LORD GOD
of Israel by offering a sacrifice rather than waiting for Samuel the Priest for
this ministry. But his disobedience
caused him to lose the Kingdom. Likewise
for Uzzah who put forth his hand to touch the Ark of GOD, when it is a Law that
only the Levites may handle it. Because
Uzzah was disobedient, he lost his life.
And that which blows my mind is that we know death is the punishment for
profaning GOD's Holy Seventh Day, yet we believe that the Holy ONE will not
fulfill that Judgment upon us as HE did upon our forefathers in the Wilderness
when the GOD of Israel Commanded that a man be stoned to death for picking up
sticks on HIS Holy Seventh Day. Unless
we can find GOD's WORD where HE revoked the Law of the Seventh Day Sabbath of
Complete REST, the consequences for violating this Ordinance still stands.
"And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak
thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall
keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations;
that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Ye
shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one
that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that
soul shall be cut off from among his people. Six days may work be done; but
in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth
any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Wherefore the children of
Although these annual conferences and conventions
Exalt the Holy ONE and are enjoyable social affairs for meeting Brothers and
Sisters, I hope they are not becoming economic ventures rather than a means to
shed Light on the ONE True and Living GOD and HIS LAW. If the purpose is really to enlighten people
to GOD's Truth, we have YRBN, The Yisraelite Radio Broadcasting Network,
established by our Brother Yehudah (specifically for this purpose), Paltalk,
and The LawKeepers Forums for disseminating information on a minute-by-minute
and daily basis with no cost to anyone although donations to YRBN for
this service would be very much appreciated.
Nevertheless, again, are these conferences and
conventions 100% what GOD wants at this time? From the days of leaving out of
the Wilderness, Our GOD of Israel has always instilled returning to HIM and HIS
LAW, sustaining our culture, and living Righteously in our
inheritance. Is not the number one
priority of returning to our heritage about returning to our inheritance, the
"For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of
the height of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel,
all of them in the land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I
require your offerings, and the firstfruits of your oblations, with all your
holy things. I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I bring you out
from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have been
scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen. And ye shall
know that I am the LORD, when I shall bring you into the
So, are these conferences what Our GOD requires of us
at this time? Nothing even close to
holding conferences on GOD's Holy Day Sabbath.
If we are to call ourselves "Leaders", then follow the
criteria that makes for a Righteous Leader, as did King David, and keep GOD's
Holy Seventh Day at Complete REST, just as HE has Commanded!
"And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to
walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his
judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou

After all, no manner of conference or convention in
the States can suffice and please the Holy ONE like our supplications, vows to
keep HIS LAW, and our Praise of HIM in the Holy Land of Israel that HE gave to
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Nothing can
compare to our obedience to Our GOD and worshipping and appealing to the GOD of
Israel in
We are aware of our identity for one reason and one
reason alone. We know that we are
descendants of the Biblical Israelites because of GOD's love for the Nation of
Israel, for HIS Promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and for HIS Merciful
Kindness towards those of us who have returned to HIM. Otherwise, we would still be as dumb as
ignorance and dead as heathenism. Our
SAVIOR GOD of Israel would not have opened our eyes and brought us out of this
GROSS DARKNESS and to this point in our lives just for us to remain in the

When women are impregnated, they are expected to
bring forth fruit. When GOD brought the
Nation of Israel out of Ancient Egypt and gave them HIS LAW, they were expected
to live by HIS Ways of Righteousness FOREVER!
Our forefathers did not do as the Holy ONE had expected, and because of
their sins, those of us living today are again in bondage in foreign countries. However, now that Our GOD has opened our eyes
to the Truth of many matters, we should be rejoicing with the understanding
that Our GOD is again expecting us to be HIS Covenant People, to go into the
Land of Israel, to live under HIS LAW, to be obedient this time, and to show
forth HIS PRAISE, exactly as it has been prophesied. Surely, Our GOD was excited about bringing us
to HIS Light and our returning to HIM, so where is our excitement in our
efforts to return to our heritage?
Not to change the subject, but I used to wonder about
the men who lived 100 years ago and knew their identity, but died in the States

"And it shall come to pass, when all these
things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before
thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither
the LORD thy God hath driven thee, And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and
shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and
thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul; That then the LORD
thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return
and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven,
from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch

"Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return,
then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if
thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them
return unto thee; but return not thou unto them. And I will make thee unto this
people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall
not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver
thee, saith the LORD. And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked,
and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible." Jeremiah
15:19 21
"Thus saith the LORD; Refrain thy voice from
weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the
LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy. And there is hope
in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own
border." Jeremiah 31:16,17
"Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD;

scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary

your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured
against me, Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concernin gwhich
I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua
the son of Nun. But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will
I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised. But as for
you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. And your children shall
wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your
carcases be wasted in the wilderness. After the number of the days in which ye
searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear
your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of

"RIGHT NOW, IT IS NOT TIME"
"I AM WAITING ON GOD TO DELIVER US"
Be very cautious about saying, "It is not
time!" And more importantly, be
very cautious about repeating any of the sinful wrongs of our forefathers. We have a
GOD, and HE is the ONE True and Living GOD the CREATOR GOD of Israel that
Created the Heavens, the Earth, and all this Universe. Our GOD being of ALL POWER is able to do ALL
THINGS, and that includes SAVING the Nation of Israel out of the hands of their
enemies numerous times proving that HE can and will DELIVER us from wherever we
are if we will only turn to HIM in Righteousness and be OBEDIENT to HIS Laws,
Statutes, and Judgments.
"So the children went in and possessed the land,
and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and
gavest them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land,
that they might do with them as they would. And they took strong cities, and a
fat land, and possessed houses full of all goods, wells digged, vineyards, and
oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and
became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness. Nevertheless they
were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their
backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them to turn them to thee,
and they wrought great provocations. Therefore thou deliveredst them into the
hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when
they cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and according to
thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand
of their enemies. But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee:
therefore leftest thou them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the
dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest them
from heaven; and many times didst thou deliver them according to thy mercies;
And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law:
yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned
against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew
the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear. Yet many years didst
thou forbear them, and testifiedst against them by thy spirit in thy prophets:
yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the
people of the lands." Nehemiah 9:24 30
And the GOD of Israel, Our ONLY SAVIOR, is ready to
hear us and DELIVER us again, if we will just make HIM Our GOD, return to HIS
LAW, and then genuinely appeal to HIM as did our forebears for Salvation and
REDEMPTION out of the hands of those who hold us captive. Also,
do not be so naοve to think that GOD will come down from Heaven to lead and
guide us home. This did not happen with

Likewise for us, this is very good information. Whatever our needs, when we do what's lawful
and right, Our GOD of Israel will meet.
If it had
not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say; If it had not
been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us: Then they
had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: Then the
waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: Then the proud
waters had gone over our soul. Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given
us as a prey to their teeth. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the
snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Our help is
in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth." Psalm 124:1 - 8

All who believe in the GOD of Israel and follow HIS Ways are shielded
from harm. Let us not forget that the
CREATOR informed Noah of "the end of all flesh"; GOD told Abram about
the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah; GOD told Moses HE would smite the Land
of Egypt; before GOD desolated HIS Holy Land, HE had warned the Israelites by
WORD of HIS Prophets scores of times; and we should understand that we have
also been warned by prophetic revelations about the destruction of
"America the Beautiful" the "Daughter of Babylon". When

"Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O
daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of
kingdoms. I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and
given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient
hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for
ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart,
neither didst remember the latter end of it. Therefore hear now this, thou
that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine
heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow,
neither shall I know the loss of children: But these two things shall
come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they
shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and
for the great abundance of thine enchantments. For thou hast trusted in thy
wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it
hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none
else beside me. Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from
whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to
put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou
shalt not know. Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of
thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt
be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail. Thou art wearied in the
multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly
prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall
come upon thee. Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them;
they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall
not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it. Thus shall

decision to "Flee" will be GOD's means of forming an obedient Remnant
of Israel. This Remnant will not only be
obedient but All Righteous, as well.

only a select few will be strong unto the end to prove themselves worthy to be
called the Righteous Remnant.

of us who are obedient to HIS WORD and trust in HIM will be saved.
