These Last Days

-

2 Timothy 3:1-9
1. This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3.  Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4.  Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5.  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6.  For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7.  Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8.  Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9.  But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

Even in gospel times there would be perilous times, on account of persecution from without, still more on account of corruptions within.  Men love to gratify their own lusts, more than to please Yahuwah and do their duty. 

When every man is eager for what he can get, and anxious to keep what he has, this makes men dangerous to one another.  When men do not fear Yahuwah, they will not regard man. 
 
When children are disobedient to their parents, that makes the times perilous.  Men are unholy and without the fear of Yahuwah, because of unthankfulness for the mercies of Yahuwah.  We abuse Yahuwah's gifts, if we make them the food and fuel of our lusts. Times are perilous also, when parents are without natural affection to their children. 

And when men have no rule over their own spirits, but despise that which is good and to be honoured. Yahuwah is to be loved above all, but a carnal mind, full of enmity against him, prefers any thing before him, especially carnal pleasure. 

A form of godliness is very different from the power, from such as are found to be hypocrites, real followers of Yahuwah must withdraw themselves from such ones with all due fear.  Such persons have been found within the outward Congregation, in every place, and at all times.  

There ever have been artful men, who, by pretences and flatteries, creep into the favour and confidence of those who are too easy of belief, ignorant, and fanciful.  All must be ever learning to know Yahuwah, but these follow every new notion, yet never seek the truth as it is in Yeshua Ha Mashiach. 

Like the Egyptian magicians, these were men of corrupt minds, prejudiced against the truth, and found to be quite without faith.  Yet though the spirit of error may be let loose for a time, Satan can deceive the nations and the Congregation of Yahuwah no further, and no longer, than Yahuwah will permit.

What is GMO?

-
A GMO , or genetically modified organism, is a plant, animal, microorganism or another organism whose genetic makeup has been modified using recombinant DNA methods (also called gene splicing), gene modification or transgenic technology.  This relatively new science creates unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods.  Genetic modification affects many of the products we consume on a daily basis.  As the number of GMOs available for commercial use grows every year, the Non-GMO Project works diligently to provide the most accurate, up-to-date standards for non-GMO verification. In order for a product to be Non-GMO Project Verified, its inputs must be evaluated for compliance with our standard, which categorizes inputs into three risk levels. High Risk The input is derived from, contains derivatives of, or is produced through a process involving organisms that are known to be gen

12 Signs Showing You Are Dealing With An Evil Person

-
Depravity is a pervasive factor of modern day survival. Sadly, at times after much effort, we are forced to recognize that the only remedial endeavour available, is from a distance. Evil is defined as the absence of good. Every person has different definitions of evil and goodness. However, in many cases, true evil is very hard to recognize especially for people who always try to find something good in others. We can not ignore that there are truly evil people around us and we need to learn how to notice the signals that show us when someone means nothing else but to harm us. 1. Reality Denial Regardless of how obvious the truth is these people will always deny it. Their truth is the only that matters even though it is the complete opposite of the reality. Their truth is actually a reflection of their wicked, unhealthy thoughts and ideas. 2. Fact Twisting These people are incredible manipulators. They are able to twist any fact that they do not want to accept. They possess the ability

Tarka Dal

-
Lately, lentils have become a tasty staple in my diet. Low in calories and high in nutrition, lentils are the perfect legume to eat in the summer in salads, spreads, for crudité and crackers, and as an item on a vegetarian dinner plate. Some like to always gravitate towards foods that are easy to cook, and lentils are a hassle-free compliment to any meal. Nutty and earthy in flavour, lentils have a high nutritional value that anyone can benefit from by incorporating this healthy legume into their diet. A meal at home is rarely fulfilling if a ladleful, or more, of dal, is not served. It’s one of the most adaptable ingredients in an Indian kitchen. Take any one dal, the masoor dal for instance, and you can find at least five ways to cook it. And that too is seriously underestimation. Ingredients 250g/9oz chana dal (yellow dried split peas), rinsed until the water runs clear 3 tbsp vegetable oil 1 tbsp cumin seeds 1 small onion, chopped 3-4 whole
