Can you face the facts; even if what you believe in is wrong?

Hadraat Saaraah

Saaraah (Sarai) was born (2077 B.C.E.) to Terah (Adhaar 2150-1945 B.C.E.) and Ayida. Haadrat Saarah was the first wife of Abraham, and was also his half sister. They had the same father and different mothers. When the Prophet/Apostle Abraham brought the handmaiden Haajar into his household Saarah envied her because of her gold nosering. So in turn, Saaraah wore earrings. This became a tradition of the household of the Prophet/Apostle Abraham (2078-1903 B.C.E.), every woman wore earrings and noserings.
        When Saaraah found that she was barren, she offered her handmaiden Haajar to the Prophet/Apostle Abraham so that she could bear children. When the Angelic Beings, Urial, Michael, and Raphael visited the Prophet/Apostle Abraham; Saaraah laughed from within the tent upon hearing she would bear a child in her old age. Saaraah had a son named Ishaaq (Isaac 1978-1798 BCE) which means, "he laughed."
        The Prophet/Apostle Ishaaq was destined to pass the Covenant of the Promise or Prophethood to his offspring. This Covenant of the Promise was a covenant that was just for the children of Israel. Saaraah was so beautiful that the Prophet/Apostle Abraham found it necessary to carry her with him in a chest when arriving near towns. However, on one occasion the Prophet/Apostle Abraham was obliged to give one tenth of all he carried with him to the arresting officer.
        He opened everything except the chest that Saaraah was in. The officer commanded him to open it. The Prophet/Apostle Abraham begged him to pass it. The officer insisted. When the officer saw Saaraah, he was so dazzled by her beauty he ran and reported the incident to the Pharaoh. When the Pharaoh heard that Saaraah was the Prophet/Apostle Abraham's sister he took her in his household. The Prophet/Apostle Abraham did not know what to do, so the Most High caused the walls of the palace to become transparent glass. When the Pharaoh tried to touch Saaraah, his hands fell off. Because of this incident the Angelic Being Gabriel told the Prophet/Apostle Abraham that it is best not to carry his women in a chest. Thus, from that day forward the women had to wear the face veil. This is where the covering of the face came about. Saaraah died at the age of 127 (1950 BCE) and is buried in Hebron next to her husband the Prophet/Apostle Abraham, who died 47 years later. She is one of the seven women who assisted when Haadrat Faatimah was born.

Incense

Throughout time sacred societies and many religions have always used incense in their rituals (Exodus 40:27, Revelation 8:4). Because humans sense of smell affects their emotions, it is important that your shrine, temple, lodge, church, synagogue and mosque be properly scented, just as it is important that your body be properly scented.
The ancient Egyptians were known for scents, mixing various herbs, plants and other natural elements to produce a celestial atmosphere. This scent "Egyptian Mysteries" has been made specifically for that purpose, to cleanse the stench of evil and disagreeableness and to fill your environment with the presence of those highly spiritual beings that are drawn by the sweet scent, and will protect their environment.

Roots of Trinidad

The Arawak and the Carib Native Americans originally inhabited this island. Discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1498 A.D., Trinidad was first a Spanish colony, then a British colony (1797 A.D.). The Carib Native Americans drove out the first British Settlers (1616 A.D.) on Tobago. Subsequently it came under the Dutch, who brought in the Moors as "slaves," and French control, before the British acquired it in 1814 A.D. So some of the Trinidadians today are a mixture of Carib Native Americans, Arawak Native Americans, Spanish, English, French and Dutch.

Sex Toys

. . . If you let your emotions be controlled by lust, or the luster of it (sex) make you go out and buy, or be a sexual instrument to give you pleasure, then you will be an A.I.D.S. victim. The fact that you need a vibrator shows you have a lack of self-control; and if the opportunity arises for you to have sex you'll take chances, not caring what the consequences might be, even possible death.
When you're emotional and calm (and in control) you're okay. I'm not saying don't have feelings.
