“THE LIVING GOD”

Who is YAHWEH? Strictly speaking, YAHWEH is the only “NAME” of God. In Genesis, wherever the word “NAME” is associated with The Divine Being, that name is YAHWEH. When Abraham or Isaac built an altar, “he called on the name of YAHWEH” (Genesis 12:3, 13:4, 26:5). Reference: The New Bible Dictionary, by J. D. Douglas, page 478.

“YAHWEH - The Covenant God of Israel, YHWH, in the Original Hebrew. According to Jewish custom, because of reverence, The Divine name was not to be spoken, so the words LORD and GOD were SUBSTITUTED. Whenever the words “LORD” AND “GOD” appear in LARGE and small CAPITAL letters, the ORIGINAL Hebrew reads YHWH (YAHWEH).” Reference: King James Version of the Bible by Thomas Nelson, Inc. “God’s self, His real person, is concentrated in His name. Unless God’s name is known, it is impossible to have a relationship with Him.” Reference: The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, by Abingdon Press, Nashville, TN, page 408. “YAHWEH” is called the Divine Name and the Tetragrammaton, or four-letter word, because it has four letters in Hebrew (YHWH). Most Jewish people will not say “Yahweh”. Instead, they say “HASHEM” —a Hebrew word that means “The Name”, or they say “Adonai” —the Hebrew word for “Lord”. Yahweh is also called The Ineffable Name, or The Unspeakable Name, but God’s Name is not unspeakable. According to Matthew Chapter 6 verse 9, which is the Lord’s Prayer Christ said: Matthew 6:9 - King James Version (KJV) “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” Christ gave the ultimate reverence to this one name by conferring the name as Hallowed, which mean “holy”. This is the one name that Christ would come in - to be The Son of this great name -because the Father and Son are One. Since They are One, They must also have one name.

Although the name YAHWEH in Hebrew is placed upon various temples across the world, such as the temple (North Yorkshire) shown in this picture, Yahweh’s Name does not appear (even once) in the text of the three most popular English Bible translations on the market today. The King James Bible, the New American Standard Bible, and the New International Version substitutes the titles “LORD” and “GOD” with capitalized letters in the place where God’s Name - “YAHWEH” actually belongs the ORIGINAL Hebrew reads YHWH (YAHWEH). Jewish religious leaders introduced this tradition in the mid-2nd century B.C., and it has continued since that time. This manmade tradition—which achieved near-universal acceptance in 1611 A.D. (when the King James Bible editors failed to include the Name “Yahweh” in their inaugural edition) — is wrong and dangerous for two reasons. First, it nullifies Yahweh’s explicit command to tell the world that we have only One God— YAHWEH. Second, according to the Bible, YAHWEH is the only name in which we have salvation. Most people that have taken on man’s religion have never heard the name YAHWEH or heard a preacher say it from the pulpit, but research shows that this is the only true name. Matthew 28:19 - King James Version (KJV) “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father (YAHWEH), and of the Son (YAHWEH), and of the Holy Ghost (YAHWEH)” To learn more about Yahweh and the global family of peace visit our website: http://www.cfycorporate.org and email us at info@cfycorporate.org.

Question: Who is the author of the book that you have in your homes, offices, churches, hotels, courthouses, and that sits on the President’s desk of the United States of America -- The same book his hand was placed on when sworn into office? Have you ever considered WHO is the author of this world-renowned book written in more languages than any other book in history? This book the Holy Bible is the world’s standard spiritual resource reference and has single handedly influenced more civilizations, world events, and personal lives than any other book in existence. How can a book of such magnitude have an author whose name is not openly recognized? Well, let’s see what the book has to say about his name. Psalms 148:13 “Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; His glory is above the earth and heaven.” What a powerful scripture here! The Author says His name alone is excellent. Well to any astute and sagacious student of the word I know a bell had to ring in your head. What is this excellent name? All who are intellectually honest will do their 2nd Timothy 2:15 which reads: “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” I encourage all readers to go to your libraries search out this truth in the Random House dictionaries, Webster’s, Encarta, Oxford, Britannica Encyclopedias, Bible dictionaries and look this name up: YAHWEH. This is the Name that is excellent above all names and the scriptures bear witness from Genesis through Revelation. Let us read 1st John 5:7: “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” The word ONE denotes a single person or thing, in a state of unity or harmony, complete, whole, unified and married. 8 | YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM

“The Three are One” Now let us reason together: How can The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost be ONE with different names? How can the three be in unity or in harmony with three different names? How can they be unified under different names? Even when a man and woman marry, they become ONE they share the same name. According to John 5:43 The Son - which is described as the Word - reads “I am come in My Father’s name, and ye receive Me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.” In John 14:26 The Holy Ghost has the same name as the Son and it reads “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” So here we have The Father’s name recorded as YAHWEH and the Son’s name is YAHWEH and the Holy Ghost name is YAHWEH which makes the THREE “ONE”: YAHWEH the Father YAHWEH The Son and YAHWEH the Holy Ghost.

Abi’s Commentary “I Am That I Am” The Christ (B.O.S.S.) mind is no ordinary mind. It encompasses the very “Being” of divinity. This is because the BOSS Mind/Christ Mind is The Divine Mind of God Yahweh. “I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me.” I can do all things through the Christ mind (B.O.S.S) which empowers me to be a Divine manifestation of God. “Let this Christ (B.O.S.S.) mind be in you, which was also in Christ.” (Philippians 2:5). Let, or allow the seed within you, containing the perfectness of God, to grow and develop your Divine mind into that Perfect state of Being, the Being of Superior Status. The BOSS mind is the embodiment of all divine ideas, such as intelligence, life, love, substance 10 | YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM

--Elder Abiygayil Yahweh

and strength. The Christ mind, the “I Am” or BOSS mind has the assurance that all power is with the spiritual. Through the “I Am” or BOSS mind is the connection to the Creator and it is unlimited, which means it is boundless, limitless, incalculable, indefinite, beyond measure, never-ending, perpetual, everlasting to everlasting and permanent. “You must let this Christ (B.O.S.S.) mind be in you, that was also in Christ.” For when you let this mind be in you, you will become a new Being, filled with new vigor, enthusiasm, ideas, creativity, happiness and all of the power of a Divine Being of Superior Status. “So, be renewed in the spirit of your mind.” Ephesians 4:23 (KJV)


Sisters, Are You Listening? CLOSE your eyes and look deeply into the mirror. You may say “how can I close my eyes and look into a mirror?” The question becomes - what is a mirror? What does a physical mirror represent? Questions, questions. Beauty. Do you see beauty, when you look inside of the image of your character? What is beauty? It has nothing to do with physical attributes such as having long hair, or perfect skin. It does not matter if you have the perfect sized and porportioned bodily shape, or if you are under or overweight. Beauty has many shades of the same color - and that is the color of purity. Woman, wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, cousin, boss... so many roles. Yet, how do we remain that beautiful reflection of God? After all, that is the most important role we have - to be the Models for those that need an example. When you look in the mirror, are you proud of what you see? Does a movie begin to play that shows you using abusive language towards your children, or being unruly or disrespectful to your husband? Is it a reflection of laziness, or ungreatfulness? Have you been reflecting that “unappreciative” spirit - feeling as if something is owed to you? Are you too proud to admit when you are wrong? Is the phrase “I apologize” foreign to your vocabulary? Woman, it’s time for you to deal with YOU. As you look at your reflection, do you see a jealous woman aruging with her mate for childish reasons - are you afraid that he will leave you for someone else? Mirror, mirror, why am I so insecure? Aren’t I blessed? Or maybe, you are looking in someone else’s rearview mirror, as you are driving your own car. Can you imagine trying to drive someone else’s car while you are simultaneously hitting mailboxes while driving your own? Do you like to control every aspect of the lives of others and try to mold them into what you expect of them? Mirror, mirror, will I be lonely for the rest of my life? Generally speaking, no God fearing man wants a woman that is lazy, or that lacks confidence in herself. Look at yourself, have you let yourself go? Do you take pride in your appearance, or have you gotten comfortable with not looking your best all of the time? This is not the reflection of God Consciousness. No God-fearing man wants a woman that is clingy - He created you to be equal in your own right. He certainly did not design you to be a Queen that does not uphold all attributes of Queenliness - such as one that uses abusive language, or one that is publicly or privately disrespectful. Now, close your eyes AGAIN and look. Do you see her? Do you see that beautiful queen? Do you see a Queen with no fear save the fear of the Lord? Do you see a LADY - one that exercises proper manners, etiquette, and discernment? How about the most beautiful woman on the planet? Do you see the respectible, professional lady that knows when to keep her mouth closed and knows exactly how words should be spoken and when it is appropriate to speak? Can you wait on God to send you a mate, or are you test driving every car that you see? Where does that road lead? Are you that

Do you have the nerve to accept the truth? power hungry woman that will stop at nothing to get what she wants, even if it means s a b o t a g i n g relationships and backstabbing others? Do you look at and treat others of lesser “rank” as being beneath you? Do you see a woman that uses her children as pawns to manipulate others...such as their f a t h e r, o r g r a n d parents? “Mirror, mirror - “It’s not always my fault.” Do you see the sister that speaks to others exclusively in a manner she would like to be spoken to? This sister masters soft answers that turn away wrath. Being “right” is equally important with the “right expression” of “right. Translation: It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. Have you learned grace? Do you see a queen that trusts in the Lord for all matters? Do you see a queen that is proud to stay in her lane, allowing her mate to be himself - unmolded by her desires? Have you seen the queen of compromise - the humble, submissive sister that understands the importance of relinquishing control overall when necessary? How about the mother- the one that is the example she teaches to her children abour modesty? Where is she? Where is the friend that knows how to keep secrets - that doesn’t gossip about her friends behind their backs (or anyone else)? “Mirror, mirror, help me change my ways.” That phrase is the start to change. Maybe only one or two of these questions apply to you, or maybe they all apply. Regardless, it’s alright. Why? It’s alright because you are now conscious of what you must change about you. If you are willing to work diligently towards change, that means you are being renewed in the Spirit of your mind. This is about putting away the old mind, and putting away childish habits. It is time to stand up and be the Queen (not quean) that God designed you to be, and the example of morality for all to follow. No matter what your reflection is, own it. Own it and change what needs to be changed. Don’t deny your imperfections. Denial of the need to change keeps you bound to being a human being. You are a celestial being, awaking to God Consciousness daily. The more you perfect the image you reflect in your mirror, you become closer and closer to realizing true Godhood.

“Ettiquette Tips” with Geduwllah Yahweh

“Everybody has a treasure box filled with life's most precious things”

Being mindful is among the sacredness of life's treasures, because the term, at a mere glance simply implies that the mind is full of things. What these things are, is u p t o t h e m i n d b e a r e r s themselves. Good or bad, right or wrong, when the choice is yours it ma=ers, i.e. manners concerning your behavior or ac>ons, is presumed most valuable to always taking the high road! So with that being said, filling your mind with things of high value and direc>ng it to be knowledgeable with good m a n n e r s , s u c h a s b e i n g conscien>ous and a=en>ve or having respect for oneself and others, are very thoughCul things. When these things are kept fully in sight of the mind, it gives you the proper map of direc>ons on how t o c o n d u c t y o u r s e l f , w h i l e simultaneously demonstra>ng to others that with a li=le effort and small sacrifices everybody has a treasure box filled with life's most

precious things. E*que.e Tips: Here are three terrific reasons why adhering to the right “Rules of E>que=e” is golden: #1 These are the ABCs of e>que=e! Always Be Caring, Comfor>ng, and Courteous. Honoring others with respect will ensure that it will flow back to you and your associates -­‐-­‐ It's the golden rule of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you. #2 Smile and make Eye Contact! A smile is a sure sign that you are a p p r o a c h a b l e a n d t h a t y o u represent happiness. Many people naturally seek and want happiness in their lives. Your eyes are not only the windows to your soul, but they connect automa>cally with your smile. People feel a since of

comfort and trust from people who look them in the eye and smile. #3 Never speak ill (gossip) about others, but rather speak about t h e i r S u c c e s s a n d Accomplishments. The media is full of nega>ve news. There are e n > r e l y t o o m a n y p e o p l e spreading rumors and talking about everyone else. It's never proper to speak nega>ve of others. I n s t e a d , s h a r e t h e i r g o o d a = r i b u t e s , s u c c e s s a n d accomplishments. Remember, it's okay to smile and change the subject, or even politely excuse yourself when necessary. E*que.e can only be seen from the outside, but it certainly reveals the intelligence on the inside.

LIVING A DRAMA FREE LIFE

“FAIR WEATHER FRIENDS” By Debowrah B. Yahweh What is a fair weather friend? Picture this: You are driving down the highway. You are in the middle lane, on cruise control, and all of the sudden: BOOM! Out of nowhere - you hear a large pop and start to feel your steering wheel vibrating as you notice that your car is leaning to the right, which explains the extremely loud rattling noise. “Oh, its just a flat”, you say to yourself optimistically. You put on your hazards, and signal right as you make your way from the middle lane to the shoulder. Meanwhile, “oops, I didn’t mean to do that” thinks the driver of the big red eighteen wheeler. He dropped his cell phone in his cabin. He tries to watch the road as he bends down - all seems clear, seconds before your tire blew out. He reaches down to pick up the phone and BANG - he slams right into you. Your car spins around twice, lands in the grass off the shoulder. You are badly hurt - The ambulance is called right away. What was “just a flat” has turned into a fight for your life. Two weeks later... you awake from your coma and realize your are in a hospital ICU. Immediately, many thoughts run

through your mind. “There is so much to do - I cannot afford to be in here,” you think to yourself as a tear runs down your face. The doctor comes in and says happily, “you are going to be fine, just a few months of physical therapy and you should be able to walk again. It’s amazing to all of us that you survived, it was a pretty bad accident.” It sets in now - you are not going anywhere anytime soon. So what do you do? “Well, I can call my friend, my sister in Christ. She will help me. I can trust her. I’ve known her for over twenty years. She will take care of things for me until I get out of here.” So you ask a nurse to call your friend. She rushes to the hospital. You explain to her that your mortgage and bills need to be paid, your car needs to be settled with the insurance company, etc. You tell her that she is all you have - and that you are so blessed to have her in your corner. She agrees to do all that you need. She gets the durable power of attorney papers drafted by an attorney. You sign over all control of your assets to her in trust that she will handle them as you requested. You give her one of your credit cards and say “to make it easy, just pay all

YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM | 17


the bills with this card, and send a check for the total amount paid for the month from the bank account to the credit card company. I know it’s not important to you, but take $1,000.00 every month for your time doing this for me. I really appreciate you.” Your friend visits you every other day. She brings flowers, food, etc. She assures you that everything is ok. She’s got it all under control. “You have nothing to worry about, just rest and get well so we can get you out of here” she urges on. Three months later, you are finally released from the hospital. You hadn’t seen your friend in two weeks, but you know she’s working and it takes a lot to manage two house holds. You try to call her and she does not answer. You were hoping for her to be able to give you a ride home. So you take a taxi. You arrive home before stepping out - you notice the grass has not been cut and there are big red notices on your front door with some kind of padlock. Your neighbor comes out and says “your friend dropped your son off here three months ago and haven’t been back since.” She helps you inside, and slowly you take in the reality. You checked your bank account balance on the account she knew about - the one you gave her to pay the credit card bill... Three months ago, you had just under seventy thousand in the account so you should be ok... right? The account is fully drained. You checked the credit card balance only to find that she was not smart - she maxed out a $250,000 credit card in a few months. Your bills only amount to $7,000 per month. You call the mortgage company, the rep says “I’m sorry, no one ever notified us of your condition or called to make a mortgage payment.” Its time to call the police.... After your initial shock - you ponder why - this is my friend - my sister in Christ - I thought we had the same faith, believed in the same God? Why would she do this to me? Then you begin to reflect on the “friendship.” She called you all the time to gossip and to ease her way into asking you for money, and you were always there for her. When she went through her divorce, you were there, even though she stood you up at your wedding (you forgave her). You are the one she calls on when she needs something and you have never failed her. But - you have never needed to call upon her. You have never needed her for anything outside of conversation. You assumed all these years that if you ever needed her, she would be there for you. The one time you needed her, she showed you that her friendship changes like the weather. The bottom line - you were her friend, but she was never your friend. It’s a good thing you kept that safety deposit box to yourself and you didn’t tell her about all of your money. What is the point of this long, drawn out story? The goal is to invoke deep consideration of the importance of choosing and maintaining healthy friendships... and now, the raw truth: A fair weather friend is a train wreck waiting to happen. They are secretly jealous of you most of the time, and you don’t even know it. They come in all types: family members, friends, sisters and brothers in Christ, etcetera...

18 | YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM

sometimes spouses! The reality is the more you closely examine the dynamics of your friendship, you discover that you have always been their friend, but they were never your friend. Fair weather friends are bosom buddies with conditions, meaning they must gain some benefit in return for their so called friendship. They are the type that say "I love you" and "I'll do anything for you" and it sounds really good, until their word is put to the test. Fair means “in one’s favor” according to the American Heritage Dictionary. Fair weather friends hang with you in the lime light but behind close doors they wish they were you. Have you ever known a person to smile in your face and then turn around and openly take what you thought was your friendship and stomp it in the ground? They do this sometimes with blatant disrespect. So what is the goal? To destroy your happiness. Why? Simply because we battle not with flesh and blood, but with principalities. “Fair weather friend” - a person who stops being a friend in times of difficulty (American Heritage Dictionary). According to Wikipedia, "fair weather friends" [refers to] those who are only friends when circumstances are easy and pleasant. Ironically, this type of friend has mastered your life and has no problem telling you all about what you should and shouldn’t do, how to handle your relationships others, etc. You will chauffeur them around for years and they won’t even offer gas money or say thank you, nor will they offer you a ride if they have the ability to give it to make your life easier. You lend to them, their loan period is indefinitely. If and only if they lend to you, they will hold over your head the one good thing they have helped you do regardless of all the things you help them to achieve. Unfortunately, many years go by without one detecting this type of friend. Although the signs are there, they are subtle and go ignored. Often times the friendship is based upon a past relationship in another time period such as childhood or college days. Before you realized it, you grew apart and your friend's once predictable personality and character regressed to something that is strange to your relationship. When you ask them for a favor, they have everything to say but “yes”. They stand you up and offer a lame excuse later. They try to separate you from your friendships with others that they don’t like. These are just a few signs of a questionable friend. If your friend has these signs, distance yourself from that association until either their efforts towards the friendship prove otherwise, or you have completely separated from that dangerous relationship. ❑ “Living a Drama Free Life” with Elder Debowrah B.

Love & Forgiveness By Bithron Yahweh

We were born to love, created in the image of God Yahweh. An image is a reflection, a close and exact resemblance to another; it’s like a double. Our hearts, spirits, are to reflect upon each other. To show Love, it’s easy to love, if you show love, it will come right back to you. Proverbs 18:24: “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly; and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.” The one who forgives is forgiven. Forgive which means to excuse for a fault or offense, to pass over a mistake or fault. Go to your brother, or sister, or anyone who may have offended you and work out what ever problem or situation there may be. Matthew 18:15: “Moreover, if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and

tell him his fault between thee and him alone; if he shall her thee, thou hast gained thy brother.” And, of course we know this also means to a sister as well. This also refers to your neighbor, or a friend, we are to love one another -- love each other. The word gain in Matthew 18:15 means to come nearer, get closer, progress and advancement. Love is the only force, and power capable of transforming an enemy into a friend. Love and Forgiveness works hand-in-hand. We must edify, build up each other’s spirit and their character. When you have forgiven, the love and bond has gotten much better and stronger. Don’t limit your spiritual growth, your heart, the inner man (mind). It’s never seen -- the inner man (mind), but we know it does exist in everybody. To YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM | 21


be renewed in the Spirit of our minds, we must show love (I John 3:18). We are all Yahweh’s children, my little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but indeed and in truth. Actions are so very powerful. Showing love is not a lip service thing -- it requires Actions. Amos 3:3: “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” This is our perfect and harmonizing unity. Psalms 133:1: Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” See, beautiful

people of the universe, Yahweh’s Creation, “Love worketh no ill to his neighbour.” (Romans 13:10) Forgiveness worketh no ill to his neighbor, you cannot have one without the other. Therefore, loving and forgiving is the fulfilling of the law. Loving and Forgiving is a universal action and language. It is time for Global Love Family, Global Forgiveness and Global Peace. Yahweh Is Love, Yahweh is Forgiving and the Prince of Peace.

YAHWEH OF THE YEAR


It is a great honor and privilege to introduce the character and the embodiment of one who not only has manifested the nature, but embellishes the representation of Divine God Consciousness in the 3rd Day. He is charismatic, prestigious, powerful and the essence of a Distinguished Gentleman. The Elder is quick to account from whence he came - he once stated in the past that he was not skilled in the word, but Yahweh said to him: “with dedication and study, you will become great.” This is exactly what he has done. For Supreme Elder Naphtali, II Timothy 2:15 came into place. He studied and the trainings were intense - but the he succeeded and became ordained an Elder of God Yahweh in 1982. In April of the same year Supreme Elder Naphtali was sent out to his own city to spread the word and the name of Yahweh. He hit the ground running and even then, in that time period, he served as Captain of captains, yet greater things were on the horizon. He is a Master Builder, a Fisherman, Educator, Carpenter, Healer - the Supreme Catalyst for The Divine God Yahweh Consciousness. He is full of the Holy Spirit - Daring Courageous - and Straight Forward - yet one of the most loving individuals in the CFY. He doesn’t have “hate” in his personality - nor “grudging” in his character. His dynamic personality and work ethic is one to be modeled: mild mannered, yet charismatic - assertive, yet humorous, cunning, and serious when necessary. From hand carved podiums (yes, that is plural) and artifacts to hours and hours of mind empowering discourses to delectable dinners plated with African Brim caught and cleaned with his hands - Supreme Elder gives himself as a living sacrifice to all that love good, and he gives himself cheerfully. Only one that is an living expression of The Holy Ghost could wield The Ark of The Covenant with his bare hands and harness it’s power without being consumed by it: for he is the Holy Ghost, a direct clone of Yahweh The Holy Ghost. The Supreme Elder comes from humble beginnings. One Elder’s memory of the Supreme Elder was when he attended a Sabbath class in Miami Florida. As they sat and listened to Yahweh speak, the class was as profound as all others. When He ended the class, He asked: Does anyone want to accept Yahweh as their God? There stood Brother Naphtali who climbed on Yahweh’s love train on his journey to greatness.

He is the 3rd Day General Joab, as we read in II Samuel 18:9-15 whereas Joab ran three darts through the heart of Absalom. The wisdom that he shares causes one to objectively and subjectively adjust their behavior. The Metaphysical Bible Dictionary states that the three darts represent thoughts that are interpreted as life, love and truth. This Noble man of God (Yahweh) guides us to correct our thoughts in such a loving and kind way. His gentle mannerism is so delicate that one may not even realize that they have been chastised; but the firmness and reassurance demands change. Lovers of truth quickly correct behavior and certainly appreciate all of the divine lessons he imparts. “You can not clean fish you have not caught yet” he says Supreme Elder Naphtali is a master at whatever he puts his mind to do. - including “fishing”. Also called “The General”, and Nap - Tool”, his works speak for themselves. He is a Master Roofer - and he is a Master Teacher: superior in the wisdom knowledge and understanding of Yahweh. He has taught on many concepts that has shaped the lives of many to this very day. He is a living teacher as the example for every man that aspire to be a business man, and the model husband. He has even taught on marriage. Additional teachings include the concepts of “Protocol”, “Overcoming Procrastination”, and his most famous: “Pay Yahweh & Yourself, First.” As he expounds on this law he goes deeper and deeper, when you think he has given you all he got, he blesses you with more knowledge. This is what makes him so supreme, it is the knowledge he has retained. The Supreme Elder has handled tasks that traditionally require the strength of hundreds of men. He has also handled tasks so delicate that only one with the highest degree of trust could bear the responsibility. There is so much more to be stated about Supreme E l d e r Ya h w e h Naphtali - one page is not enough to describe his greatness. He has seen and done so much in his life for Yahweh, The CFY is forever grateful, appreciative, and indebted to his loyalty.

YM Exclusive Interview

The Woman in the Mirror Dr. Cherilyn Lee, Ph. D. Board Certified Nurse Practioner, R.N., N.P., C.N.H.P., Ph.D., Certified Bio Meridian Practioner


Dr. Lee: I just want to thank you so much. It’s truly a blessing to be here today. Thank you so very much for this opportunity. YM: Yes ma’am. And I want to thank you for joining us. I want to thank you once again for sharing this time with us, but before we go over anything else, Dr. Lee, I just want you to tell us a little bit about your book. The book is something that you’ve been working on for a little while from what I understand. Also, the title itself is “Written Before I was Born?” Dr. Lee: Yes. YM: Will you tell us a little bit about the book and how you came up with the title? Dr. Lee: Well, I’ve been working on this book for actually a long time. What happened was that it didn’t start off with the title that it has now. The title initially was “Detox the Mind and the Body Will Heal.” Now it has become a chapter in the book, “Written Before I Was Born.” The way I came about that is based really on one of my daughters and several others. YM: Is this what inspired you to write the book? Dr. Lee: What inspired me to write a book was that so many things were going on in my life. I have been in 2 comas in the past. In one of my comas I had an outer body experience where I was placed in a cloud, and God ministered to me the 4 days I was in the coma. This coma happened in 1992. And, it was the things being revealed to me during that time. So many things had been revealed that “Written Before I Was Born,” is basically our lives. God Yahweh has put things in our life, and we have things that are actually coded and designed. A lot of times we don’t understand our journey, but it was pre-ordained by God. It was pre-ordained by Yahweh before we even came through our mother’s womb. So this is why I accepted my challenge and the things I’ve gone through in life have been a truly wonderful journey. I wouldn’t take any of it back and I wouldn’t change anything because I would not be the person I am today. YM: Yes. Now Dr. Lee, after you came out of this coma, did you discover that you were a different person? Dr. Lee: Well, after I came out of the coma, yes I did. I’ve had several experiences, but after I came out of this particular coma, even in my training as an RN, as a physician assistant, and all the training I’ve had in the past, prior to the coma I did not want to work in death and dying. Never. That’s one component of my life that I did not fear after this experience. I don’t fear death that way. Now I’m able to work with other people. As soon as I went back to work, I got more and more calls from people telling me their loved ones were sent home with 3 or 4 months to live. I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you’re not going anywhere until it is God’s time. We need to enjoy each moment and do not look back in the past because the past is destroying a lot of people. You let the past stay where it is. If God wanted you to see behind you all the time, he would have put some eyes in the back of our head. But the thing is that we have to learn to enjoy the moment. I’m so sorry I did not acknowledge Yahweh Ben Yahweh. Thank you again for being on this call here. I am just honored. I’m sorry I didn’t give you the acknowledgment before I started speaking. Part of the book is how to grow and glow, and move forward after a divorce. A lot of people are having a lot of problems with that. I see a lot of cancers because people just can’t forget. The book actually goes into forgiveness and how your thoughts are so powerful. Your feelings are so powerful and so many people are governed by their

feelings. What I felt in that coma was so powerful. We have to not let our feelings guide our emotions. YM: That’s right! You’re exactly right! I also wanted to ask, Dr. Lee, being in that state of consciousness when you were in the coma, did you feel that God Yahweh was leading you and telling you that you had to come back because you have work to do? Dr. Lee: Most definitely. I was moving forward, it was like you have work to do. You cannot stay. YM: Yes. Everyone knows you as Michael Jackson’s nurse. You have touched a lot of lives, and a lot of people know you just by your name. How does that make you feel that once the book is released of course people are going to buy this book because they want to know your thoughts? They want to know what you are going through. What you have gone through and how you can help them. How does that make you feel? Dr. Lee: Well actually, like I said, this is a whole journey of my life. It really gives me such honor because this is what I do with patients on a daily basis. It gives me great honor and I am so grateful that Yahweh has given this to me to help others. I think that if I had not had the experience that I had, I would not feel so humble about working with other people. It doesn’t matter if the person is an entertainer. I’ve worked with people from South Central to Beverly Hills. I see myself known because of doing a deed to help someone. I have helped someone who was very loving to so many people. I’ve met so many patients that said how loving he was and they would not even be here had it not been for him. YM: That’s a side that a lot of society does not know. They don’t know that side of him (Michael Jackson). Dr. Lee: These people have approached me and thanked me for helping him. They thanked me for standing up for him. I did it because I know it was the right thing to do. It became extremely complex, but in essence, it has opened the door because I know he (Michael Jackson) and I had many conversations. One was how he wanted to open up a hospital for children. He loved to help people and help people heal. He would tell me, “I do with my music what you do in your clinic.” This is one reason why the notoriety helped me to reach more people. I don’t feel that a person should have to suffer. After the journeys I’ve been through in life, 2 comas, and schedules to have my legs amputated, and you name it. I’m not suffering now -- I feel absolutely wonderful. Dr. Lee: I’m constantly on the go and constantly helping other people. Actually I can put myself back in that position of when I was in a coma and was at my peak of peace, and I can feel that presence. In the middle of a storm, that’s what keeps me centered. Now, I work with people and teach them how to do that without going through any sicknesses. We are in a world now where there is so much turmoil. The one thing I tell people is to stay away from all of the news. I mean if you want to know what is going on stay current. But don’t sit there for hours and hours listening to the news all day. Try to balance it out with things that are happy. Things that are going to make you happy and things that will make you laugh, because that in itself is amazing. It’s amazing because of what it does to your body. If you’re constantly in a state of stress and anxiety, unhappiness, forgiveness,

YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM | 29


anger, jealousy you are not going to be able to move on. As a matter of fact, your body is going to become very acidic. People always ask me about acid alkaline diets and I tell them, “If you don’t detox your mind of negative thought patterns, you can take all of the wonderful alkaline products, go on an alkaline diet, but your body is going to stay acidic. YM: Yes. And it’s interesting that you say that because Yahweh teaches us to cleanse our mind and to control our thoughts. So it’s very important that we control our thoughts, control our eating habits, and just be cautious of what it is we do on a day to day basis. You need to graduate every day! Dr. Lee: The teaching of Yahweh Ben Yahweh is my life. YM: Yes Yahweh. Dr. Lee: This is who I am. To be loved, you have to be loving. YM: Yes. You know and I wanted to ask you what made you do an audio instead of a hard back? I’m just curious. Dr. Lee: I decided to do an audio because I talk to people so much, number one. And secondly, a lot of times, when people are sick late at night, I have them to call me. They know that they can call me. So I decided to do an audio because people sometimes need to hear the voice. I can say, “Tell your best friend you love them” or you can say, “I love you.” You can read it, but to hear it has a different meaning. YM: I prefer audio. I’m just curious. And for the listening audience as well, you can listen to it in the car. You can be around the house cleaning up. I prefer audio so yes I can understand where you are coming from. Dr. Lee: Through the trial last year is when I really decided I was going to definitely go audio. My prayer was that I wanted people to understand what a person goes through with chronic insomnia. And I asked God to please let people hear through me what Michael was going through. I had several calls on my phone, that different judges and some commentaries and people made a comment and stated, “It seems as though Michael was speaking through her.” And that was my prayer. So I’m just very grateful to be on this planet at this point in time. I’m so grateful to God. I’m so grateful to Yahweh for having this opportunity to even share. My prayers got worked right through me so that I could be a vessel, so that I could be a blessing for others. YM: So the title, “Written Before I was Born” is about your life path that you chose which Yahweh already had for you. Dr. Lee: Yes. YM: Yahweh definitely has plans for you! He has a plan for all of us. You’re in the position and in the limelight to where you can tell your story and testimony! Dr. Lee: Yes. And not to cut you off but I wanted to say this very quickly. There is a chapter in my book which has to do with PE. And PE is not (physical exam) or (physical education). I’ve had 2 pulmonary embolisms which are abbreviated as PE. And right now, as we speak, we have an epidemic of blood clots and pulmonary embolisms. Every component of that condition deals with the emotional and the physical, there are environmental issues too. We deal with the environmental component of it, but what was going on emotionally around the people? Now, there is a person in the media

right now who claims that they have a pulmonary embolism or they have a blood clot. YM: That is scary! Dr. Lee: Yes. People are not talking about it and people are not even aware that it is an epidemic. Now that is part of my book and there are things you can do to prevent it. So this is truly a healing book. YM: Yes it is. And we’re looking for this book to be a best-seller! I’m just going to put it out there. Once again Queen, I want to thank you for taking the time out with me and the family. I just wanted to say I thank you, and I love you, and if you need anything you can always reach out to the family. Dr. Lee: Wonderful. Thank you so very much. Again I’m so grateful and honored to have had this interview. I’m so humbly grateful. Thank you Yahweh Ben Yahweh. YM: Yes ma’am. Ok. Well I’ll be in touch and you take care and I love you Queen. You seem like a person that has endured a lot and encountered a lot of things throughout life and you’ve taken what you’ve learned and learned to adapt. Your passion for what you’re doing is great. At the same time I’ve got one quick, quick question before you go, if you don’t mind beautiful Queen? Dr. Lee: Yes. YM: After all that you’ve endured and encountered throughout life, what do you feel your divine purpose is of life? Dr. Lee: I feel that my divine purpose in life is to be all that I can be. To, number one, be the best mother, grandmother (because I have children, sisters and brothers) that I can be. And to be the best godlike person I can be, to let my light shine to bring people in. YM: Alright. Praise Yahweh! Dr. Lee: My true desire is to help people to heal. I don’t care what the condition or the title is. I want to help them to heal. That is my number one. And in all cases medication is not needed. YM: Yes Yahweh. You learn something new every day! Dr. Lee: That is my number one purpose in life, besides being the greatest mom to my own children you know? Because they’re my children they feel that I put them last. But my pupose is to be a healer, to help people to heal at every level. And I work with people throughout the world. I’m doing that as it is, but my purpose I feel is to help people through them seeing who I am and seeing my light as to who I am and praying that God Yahweh helps them to change their lives. YM: Praise Yahweh. Beautiful, I’m loving it. Well beautiful Yahweh Dr. Cherilyn Lee thank you again for sharing your time with us. I’m looking forward to that book. It sounds like it is going to have a lot of powerful information composed in it. And I’m sure it’s going to help anyone who has the opportunity to set their eyes on that book and feast on it. Thank you for everything you have shared with us and continue to let your light shine beautiful Queen Yahweh. We embrace you. We love you. Dr. Lee: Thank you Yahweh.

The Hairnista A Boss Mind Exclusive Interview featuring

Terri Davis The BOSS Mind is a part of the Economic Summit segment on the BOSS Show. The BOSS Mind features people who have taken their destiny financially into their own hands. Whether it was through an idea, business opportunity, or adversity, these people have utilized their BOSS minds to take the reigns of life and steer until they have guided themselves into a new life. On the BOSS Mind we feature this Fantastic Mind.We interviewed Terri Davis, Youtube Enterprenuer - The Hairistia, on the BOSS MIND of the Economic Summit. Terri has taken her hobby and turned it into a Thriving Business. This has allowed her Financial Independence and the ability to call her own shots. CCP: Evening Terri. Thank you for being our first guest on the Boss Mind. How are you? Terri: I am fine and doing great. CCP: Well, Terri you were recommended to us to be a part of the BOSS Mind because we heard some fantastic things about you and what you are doing. So, let’s jump right into it. Tell us a little bit about your background first. Terri: I am Terri Davis and I am 28. Well, in high school I was a tomboy and into sports. I ran track, played basketball, and did athletic things. That’s all I did in High School. CCP: After High School, you had some very interesting jobs for a young woman. Could you tell us a little about that job? What did you do? Terri: After High School, I went to college to play basketball and run track. I was into culinary arts and I also worked two jobs. I worked at FedEx and McDonalds. I have also been the type of person that worked and always tried to make money. While I was at FedEx, I saw men driving big trucks constantly. They would tell me that they made really good money, how they were their own BOSS, and had the freedom to do what they wanted. I decided that I wanted to

32 | YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM

do that. There was a free program where you could get training and your license. They also paid you while they trained you. So, I started doing that while going to school. I ended up driving trucks. CCP: When you say you drove trucks, what kinds of trucks? Terri: I drove big diesels for Home Depot. I drove the big ones with the trailers in the back 53 footer, 48 footers. I drove the big trucks. CCP: You are 28 now, so how old were you when you started driving big trucks? Terri: I started driving when I was 23. CCP: You actually drove the big truck that we see men driving? How did you like that? Terri: (Laughing) Yes, I did and I really loved it. It was amazing. I was surprising everyone. The guys always looked and could not believe that I was trucking. At the truck stops, everyone would always come to me. They were encouraging and surprised. I

drove across the Pacific Coast – California, Nevada, and Arizona. I always wanted to be my own boss, so I did it. CCP: Terri, how long did you drive and why did you stop driving? Terri: I drove for almost three years. I got pregnant with my daughter. Driving the first trimester was very hard for me, so I went on maternity leave very early. On maternity leave, I didn’t watch much TV, but I did watch YouTube. I started watching a lot of YouTube. I would watch the girls on there doing hair, makeup and fashion. They owned their own businesses doing this. I really got into this. I started thinking that I really wanted to watch my daughter grow up. I didn’t want to go back on the road. I used to drive 12, 14 and 16 hour shifts. I wanted to be at home and make money. But, I wanted to have my own thing going on. I’d seen girls on YouTube doing it. I figured, “you know what? I am going to do that too.” I decided that I was going to start making videos and put them on YouTube. I am


going to do it and see how it goes. I did it and it just went on from there. CCP: So, basically you are now an entrepreneur with your own business on Youtube. Can you tell us what type of business you have? Terri: I make money on YouTube and they call what I do a Beauty Guru. I do videos on hair, makeup and clothes. I give fashion advice like how to wear certain outfits and I also started my own boutique. I sell handbags and now I am also selling hair. CCP: For those that may not know about using YouTube as a business aspect, will you tell us a little bit more about using YouTube to make money or for business. Terri: On YouTube, you make videos. It all depends on the views. When you start to get a lot of views, advertisers want to sponsor your videos. They want to advertise in front of your videos. They pay you for every view. Also, companies send me products to advertise on my videos. They pay me to show them to my viewers. There is a lot that YouTube will pay you for. CCP: Okay you have a YouTube Channel and you make your own self-help beauty videos and you have created a business from this through Sponsorships and Advertising. Is this a part time business? I mean you are telling us that you have made this into a business? Terri: Yes, I have my own Channel and if you get big YouTube will pay you and they pay very well. CCP: When looking at your Channel right own, it says you have over 15 million views as of today and over 116,000 subscribers. That’s pretty big. Terri: (Laughing) Yes. It is so crazy. I can’t believe it. It is a blessing. It’s amazing. CCP: With this many subscribers, it seems like you are very well known. How did you decide to do this? Did you have prior training, classes, or anything? Terri: No. I did not take any classes or anything. I just set the camera up and did it. I just did what I love to do, which is hair and make-up on myself and people love to watch that. CCP: Since you had no prior skills or training, did you have any fear that this would not work?

Terri: I just decided to do it. I had to do it. I wanted to watch my daughter grow up and make more money than driving trucks. I had to figure it out. I had to, I had no choice. I didn’t want to be gone all of the time. I wanted to be at home.

Terri: I would just say, “Go for it.” “Go for your dreams.” “Do not listen to any negativity.” I only had a Plan A. “So, don’t listen to any negative people.” “Just do it.”

CCP: You said you wanted to make more than when you drove trucks. Are you doing that now? Terri: Yes. Like double on that. It is a blessing. I am doing it at home and making money doing something I really love. It is not like I am working, because it is something that I love. So, it is like…I don’t know. It is a dream comes true. CCP: Is this making you famous? Terri: It is hard to say that. (Laughing)I am famous. Yes, people do recognize me, especially in my area. I get stopped at least once a day. CCP: Recently, you were named in Essence Magazine. Tell us about that. Terri: Yes. A subscriber actually told me congratulations. Essence Magazine had chosen me as one of the TOP 50 Beauty Guru’s on YouTube. There was something on their Facebook page that their viewers could choose from. They called it the Digital Divas and I was right there. I was chosen. CCP: The things that you are doing are phenomenal. Having the mind to become an entrepreneur at such a young age, to become a truck driver at 23, and then decide that you needed to do something completely different. You took a hobby-- something you just liked to watch and sticking to that entrepreneur spirit, you created a business from nothing. This definitely shows that you have the BOSS Mind, the GOD mind. Could you share your business web addresses with our audience? Terri: Yes. My YouTube address is - THE WORLD OF A HAIRNISTA at http:// www.youtube.com/fabulasityisme My boutique address is - http:// glamdupbutterfly.bigcartel.com/ CCP: Terri, we want to congratulate you on your success and wish you even greater success. We appreciate you taking time out to allow us to interview you. Do you have any final words for our audience?

ARE YOU A CITIZEN OR A FINANCIAL HOSTAGE? Written By: Hadassah Merab Yahweh A citizen is an inhabitant of a state, city, town or country; especially one entitled to the rights and privileges of a freeman of that state, city, town or country. A citizen is also a native or naturalized person who owes allegiance to a government and is entitled to protection from that government. The Constitution of any government indicates the rights and obligations of the inhabitants, and requires the inhabitants to live by the rules and laws of the dwelling place in order to earn the privileges and protection. As a result, the natives, and/or inhabitants of the government place owe an allegiance to the state, city, town or country in order to be protected. Consequently, to be considered a citizen, and be protected by the country of residence, there is an obligation to pay taxes, in addition to fees and fines for breaching the rules. This gives rise to the second part of the question, “...or a Financial Hostage?” Financial deals with finances such as money or other liquid resources of a government, business, group, or individual. It is a system that includes the circulation of money, with the ability to grant credit and make investments. A financial hostage is an individual that is overextended in debt and other financial obligations. The Declaration of Independence states: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” Sounds like a double-edge sword. Deuteronomy 8:18: “But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.” The Creator has the power to give wealth as a gift to establish His covenant that was promised by our forefathers to be granted this day, hence, it should be a priority to learn the ways to achieve this gift of power. As it is written in Luke 12:32: “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Are you enjoying this blessing from the Creator; or the curse? Examine yourselves to see if you are in the proper place in your faith in God; and have the proper mind of the one who has the power to bring the king-dome (knowledge) of true citizenship and oblige yourselves to the Government of Theocracy where God rules in order to receive the power promised and be protected by God. “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:21). Citizens of the Governent of God (CFY) live by a moral code promoting perpetual individual self-empowerment, moral character and transcending into the Divine example of true holiness and righteousness, as the Global Peace Makers of the earth as we read in Matthew 5:9: “Blessed

are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God.” CFY Citizens have put on the breastplate of righteousness, by putting away lying, misleading, manipulating and deceiving concepts that have held us in spiritual and physical captivity for over 6,000 years. CFY Spiritual Citizens are completely honest and straightforward with all people with tact and discretion; recognizing that we are united and joined by the Hand of God as stated in Ephesians 4:25: “Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.” What does this have to do with the question? Society has been built based upon a system designed to entrap the poor and middle class individuals. If you have a certain credit score, according to society, you may have credit. If you get into financial trouble, your character is determined by a number. It is for this reason that many people are in bondage to debt, and slaves to money. It is often commonly stated that the average working class citizen is two pay checks away from being homeless. Some people are working for a company, in a role they despise only because they need the health benefits. Life should not be centered around debt repayment, should it? Yet: back to the pursuit of happiness... advertisement to buy/sell innudates society with materialism. Close out sales and secular holidays demand seasons that causes people to practice the opposite of what Christ teaches about being temperate, modest and exercising discretion. Yes, the words and teachings of Christ apply to finances too... As a citizen of any country, and as a Spiritual Citizen of the Kingdom of God, we owe it to ourselves to create a financial situation that represents stability: savings, emergency funds, nest eggs, etc. Many people want to do this but are unsure where to start. Here is an idea: get a pencil and a sheet of paper to begin facing your finance HEAD ON. Start by listing your financial goals. When was the last time you revisited your financial plans? Do some calculations: How much do you need to cover six months of bills in case you lost your main income source? Write it down. Then, Start by paying off credit cards debt, student loans, and other loans. Put a set amount of money to the side consistently and do not touch it. Once you have paid your debt, the extra money can be saved for future goals or go towards larger debts until you are free from financial bondage. It will not take long. You have the Right to a full life filled with happiness: a life that is free from financial hardships and injustices. It is time to create that life for yourself. Stand up and allow the God Consciousness inside of you to operate: chisel away at that brick wall until you break free from financial bondage.

UNIVERSAL LANGUAGES When you live in a world where there are about 7000 different languages, it becomes important to learn and know at least a couple of the universal languages. What is the Most Popular Language in the World? Do you know what language is the most widely spoken? If you think it is English, you are badly mistaken. Over 425 million people speak Spanish, over 425 million speak Arabic, and over 380 million speak English. Also, between 100-200+ million more people speak Hindu, Portuguese, Bengali, Russian, Japanese, and German, but there are over 1.2 billion people who speak Mandarin Chinese. We live in a world where there are billions of people speaking 1000s of different languages. Yet there are still a few universal languages that are understood no matter where you live. Love – The language of love is the strongest and most popular universal language. It overpowers all feelings. It has the power to reflect and attract attention in any room no matter how crowded it may be. Some may say, “Love is not a language. It is a feeling”. However, we beg to draw your attention to the fact that love language is a means of expression. Although it is non-verbal, it speaks volumes and very loudly. No one will deny the looks of the couple that glows as the look into each other’s eyes. Love screams to you as it radiates from them. In the sweet embraces of the child when they hug their parent again love screams its song. The love of a humanitarian through their work to make the world a better place. This love drives them through jungles to build fresh waterways to the poor. Love has made a person throw themselves in front of a car to save their child or loved one. Love has given some people the strength to pick up cars, trucks and other heavy items because it crushed loved ones. A task that most could

not do again when asked. It has given some the will to live when doctors and everyone else had given up. Death may have come knocking, but they didn’t let it in. Love has the power to create happiness. This marvelous, incredible, beautiful language – Love - is the language of God. GOD is Love. A Smile and Laughter – People smile for all types of reasons. It is another non-verbal language, but it is understood all over the world. A smile may say many different things, but primarily it speaks to – Happiness. Smiles have no real known origin or motivation, yet they have a super powerful effect on humans. No matter what country you might be in when someone flashes a smile you smile back. This phenomenal super powerful language called a smile, when coupled with its partner laughter has the ability to stop crying, change the room’s mood, relieve stress and gather attention. It is also contiguous causing others to laugh with you, even though they might not know what caused the laughter and feelings of happiness. Babies learn to smile and laugh early in life. They cry in pain, hunger, sleepiness and loneliness. However, in the peacefulness of their sleep, you can always catch a glimpse of them smiling and even laughing as if they are talking and laughing with the angels. Smiles and laughter truly makes the heart grow fonder. A Warm Smile is the Universal Language of Kindness. ~William Arthur Ward Music – The language of music expresses feelings and thoughts without the use of words. Music has character and that character is reflected through the notes, beats, rhythms and melody. Even the instruments speak their own language. A song played on a harp or violin gives off a different language from that same song played on a trumpet or set of drums. Science all but confirms that humans are hard-wired to respond to music. They are even saying that it has the power to help

heal. Music creates happiness to its listeners no matter what language they speak. No one can deny the toe tapping, finger snapping or head bobbing associated with beautiful music. It speaks to the soul and enlightens their very being. Nature creates and plays music daily. Whether, it’s the singing birds, sound of ocean waves, the whistling wind or crackling leaves nature makes its own music. The music played throughout the world is just a sample of the vast symphony of the universe. Music is the Universal Language. Music is Celestial. Music and rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul. ~Plato These 3 Universal Languages are understood and can be embraced by anyone. In them, we can all share One Voice or One Verse – The UniVerse. We are one!!! Here Are Some Interesting Facts about Languages (from http://1howmany.com/howmany-languages-in-the-world) Here you will find some really interesting facts about languages. The population of Europe is about ¼ of the whole world, but Europeans speak only 234 languages. About 94% of all languages are regularly spoken by just 6% of the population of the world. Most languages are constantly used by less than one thousand native speakers. K. David Harrison, a linguist from the Swarthmore College, predicts that by 2050 about 90% of spoken languages will be dead. In Papua New Guinea there are less than 5.5 million citizens and about 830 languages spoken by them. The United Nation has six official languages, used in meetings: Arabic, Chinese, French, English, Spanish, and Russian. Esperanto is the most popular artificial language. The number of speakers of English in China is larger than in the USA.

The Seychelles Islands The Seychelles Islands are considered to be one of the most beautiful places in the world, with breathtaking worldrenowned beaches. The climate year round is welcoming with temperatures ranging from 75-85 degrees. The Seychelles is a small island nation located in the Indian Ocean northeast of Madagascar and about 1,600 km (994 mi) east of Kenya. The nation is an archipelago (chain of islands) of 155 tropical islands, some granite and some coral, with the majority of which are small and uninhabited. The landmass is only 457 km², but the islands are spread over an Exclusive Economic Zone of 1,374,000 km², which extends from between 4 and 10 degrees south of the equator and which lies between 480km and 1,600km from the east coast of Africa. The granitic islands of the Seychelles archipelago cluster around the main island of Mahé, which is home to the international airport and capital, Victoria. Together, these Inner Islands form the cultural and economic hub of the nation and contain the majority of Seychelles’ tourism facilities as well as its most stunning beaches. There are two distinct regions, the granitic islands, the world's only oceanic islands of granitic rock and the coralline outer islands. The granite islands are the world’s oldest ocean islands, while the outer islands are mainly very young, the Aldabra group and St Pierre (Farquhar Group) are unusual, raised coral islands that have emerged and submerged. Creole cuisine features the subtleties and nuances of French cooking, the exoticism of Indian dishes and the piquant flavors of the Orient. Grilled fish basted with a sauce of crushed chilies, ginger and garlic are national favorites, as are a variety of delicious curries lovingly prepared with coconut milk and innovative chatinis made from local fruits such as papaya and golden apple.

As may be expected, seafood dishes feature predominantly in the local cuisine, appearing alongside the national staple, rice. Some restaurants specialize in Indian, Chinese or Italian food and many feature popular international and specialist dishes. Seychelles is famous for having some of the best beaches in the world, pristine and uncrowded. Some are framed by age-old granite boulders. Others offer powder-soft sands, turquoise waters and sublime opportunities for swimming, snorkeling or pure relaxation. There are great opportunities for islandhopping between the 16 islands that currently offer accommodations. These range from sumptuous 5-star resorts, to rustic island lodges and cozy beachside bungalows. On your way, you will discover such gems as the legendary Vallée de Mai, home to the legendary Coco-de-Mer. You will also find proud national monuments, beautiful Creole houses, artists' studios, national reserves and marine parks, as well as breathtaking natural wonders above and beneath the waves.

There is also golf, horse-riding and guided nature tours where you can enjoy some of the rarest species of flora and fauna on earth. Not forgetting the mellow Seychelles nightlife, where you can take in a casino, some local bars and fine restaurants offering unforgettable Creole and international cuisine. What sets Seychelles apart from so many other holiday destinations is its wide variety of islands -- each one with its own particular geography, character and history. Whether you choose a day excursion to one of the many Inner granitic islands, or an extended stay on one of our exotic island hideaways, Seychelles has something exceptional to offer. Experiencing more than one island during your stay is a must, and will add a dimension to your holiday experience that you will never forget. In closing, the Seychelles Islands are a must see. Most major airports, such New York’s JFK, and LaGuardia will offer direct flights to the islands. The average cost for a hotel is, $100 per night and dining can range from $30$100 per person, per day.


Recipes from Heaven Gató d'Ametlla Majorcan Almond Cake • Serves 8

Ingredients • Unsalted butter and all-purpose flour for preparing pan • 8 eggs, separated • 1 1/2 cups sugar • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional) • 2 cups coarsely ground blanched almonds ADVERTISEMENT

Preparation Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Butter an 11-inch round cake pan with 2-inch sides and then dust it with flour, shaking out any excess. In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks and sugar and whisk together until smooth and foamy. Add the lemon zest, cinnamon, and vanilla, if using, and mix well. Add the ground almonds a little at a time, mixing well after each addition to incorporate fully. Using a whisk or a handheld mixer, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Scoop about one-third of the whites onto the egg yolk mixture and, using a rubber spatula, fold them in to lighten the mixture. Then add the remaining whites and fold them in gently but thoroughly, deflating the batter as little as possible. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake the cake for about 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and, holding the cake pan 6 inches above a countertop, drop the pan onto the counter. This simple dropping action shocks the cake, making it easier to remove from the pan. Transfer the cake to a wire rack and let cool in the pan until warm. Run a knife around the inside of the pan to loosen the cake sides and then invert the cake onto the rack and lift off the pan. Place the cake upright on a serving plate. Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream, if desired. YAHWEHMAGAZINE.COM | 43
