Goshen Essentials are Ready!

We have labels printed, formulas formulated, and information in print.  I am so excited to be able to make this available at an affordable price.  The one glitch I've had is the fact that I simply cannot offer this as a multi-level-marketing opportunity at this time.  From my research, that seems to be the main factor in the cost.  So, although we cannot offer this as a business opportunity, we will be able to offer some great incentive plans and coupons.

Our introductory offer will be forthcoming Tuesday.  In some of the formulation of the Essential Blends, the "side effects" have been interesting.  The side effect of one blend appears to be a reduced blood pressure!    The plan is to include one of the blends of your choice as a gift, when purchasing the Goshen Essentials Basic.  The website will be built, hopefully by Monday evening, an the options listed.

Our Creator made so much goodness!




He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;  And wine that makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.  Psalm 104:14-15

In the Image of Our Creator

Sometimes we just need to do something creative!

Monarch Butterflies

Are they going the way of the honey bees, also?

We are Spirit . . .

Humans are spirit, with mind and body.  Often we get that order reversed.  Scripture indicates in many passages that our health or ill health is a result of our spiritual state.   There is an old cliche that speaks of "mind over matter."  Old cliches become old cliches because there is truth in them.  As I am formulating essential oils and tinctures I read over and over how much our mind and outlook affects our health.

Leaving Mainstream Medicine

Leaving mainstream medicine can be very difficult.  Our society has literally programmed us into believing it is irresponsible to trust G-d alone.  When we actually consider the concept that our social medicine and the Word of YHWH aren't truly compatible after all, choosing between standing on faith in the Words of Scripture and social pressure, it becomes a monumental decision.  I know, I made that decision over a decade ago, and I can attest, the biggest arguments against my decision have come from the religious groups.  In retrospect, I'm thinking some of it may have been based upon their own conviction.

Knowing how difficult the decision was with virtually no encouragement or support, but after much prayer, I knew it was right.  In all honesty, it was not an easy decision for me, and I vacillated for a few years, trying to still reckon the wisdom of man, the advice of many, and the truth of YHWH, but I simply couldn't.  This is not to condemn those who are not considering this choice; but I want to offer encouragement and support to those who are considering standing on full faith in Y'hshuwah Messiah, the Word of YHWH.  We are promised in Hebrew Scripture, what is commonly referred to as the Old Testament, that our Creator is our Healer; and of course the New Testament is filled with accounts of healings, not only by Y'hshuwah Messiah, but by some of His followers, as well . . . but no record of healings by Dr. Luke.

Apparently, when Dr. Luke became a believer, YHWH used Him to verify and document the miraculous healings.  Y'hshuwah said, His followers would do greater works than they'd seen Him do, because He was going to the Father.  Well, if we truly believe Scripture, He's at the right hand of Abba, as I type this, and as you're reading it.

Through the years, I've studied many modalities that are termed "alternative" in our culture.  I don't have all the answers and all the herbal and essential oil knowledge, but I am knowledgeable.  Of course, even utilizing the remedies our Creator provided, we must still place our faith in Him as our Healer.

Tribally Yours, LLC offers many herbal based natural products for our comfort and has been developing a basic line of essential oils to be unveiled soon to replace OTC chemicals, without breaking the bank!   Below are but a very small fraction of Scriptural passages pertaining to our physical health.

And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of YHWH thy G-d, and wilt do that which is right in His sight, and will give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am YHWH that healeth thee.  Exodus 15:26 Torah of Holy Scripture

Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.  Jeremiah 33:6

When Y'hshuwah saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?  John 5:6

The Editorial on Changing Times and Laws

I just now realized the title of this blog, Creation Therapy has the same initials as Conspiracy Theory.
I am one of those people who does not like the changing of the time with the season.  We are officially only on standard time now for just a little over 4 months.  Considering the calendar contains 12 months, I don't understand how the standard can be less than the modified and still be the standard.  Just one of the many things my mind isn't wrapping around these days.

As for this time change, I stopped changing my clocks in the fall.  It's sort of an interesting little game I play with myself, and so far, in 12 years, I've only outsmarted myself once, in messing up an appointment.  As I mentioned before, most of the responsibilities in my life revolve around daylight and dark, and time on the clock is irrelevant.  Last Sunday evening, although it was already dark, the chores were all done, I noticed by the automatic clock on my computer that the Goshen Gazette was actually publishing earlier than usual.  That's when I was absolutely certain this playing with clocks is about messing with us!

Here's my conspiracy theory, which I've held for a number of years and it seems every year, more confirmation becomes apparent.  The changes that have come about with this clock play is financial, of course.  I actually remember when Daylight Saving Time was "introduced" nationally to save energy, but the reality is; that isn't reality.  We continue to play this time game with ourselves, but there is little evidence that any energy is actually saved, and significant contradictory evidence.   More money is spent in the summer evening hours, in retail and entertainment, because there is more daylight in the after work hours.  More money spent isn't saving energy or even our economy for that matter.  

There are indications that more money is spent on energy in the winter months through the regular time because the long dark evenings set the tone for the need of increased lighting and heat, and the change is exaggerated with the time change.  More money is also spent on medication now, and I realize many would say that is just because there are more people and more medications available.  The reality is though, there are more psychiatric medications prescribed and the time change intensifies the seasonal changes that occur naturally.  Anti-depressants are big big money makers for the pharmaceutical industry.  Along side increased pharmaceutical sales, another Big Business has boomed since the advent of longer winter nights and more summer activities.  Weight Watchers began in the 60's and established it's rich history, virtually, through the same time frame.  It became so valuable, the H. J. Heinz company bought it from the founders in 1978 and established the Weight Watcher label on prepared foods.

There are still 24 hours in a day, and the number of daylight and dark hours are determined by the seasons and the sun, not the clock.

Health Care Gives, YHWH Takes Away

A startling number of cases of MRSA are actually contracted in health care facilities.  It is a highly contagious illness, and of course the bacteria is quite adaptable in becoming harder and harder to treat with antibiotics.  As is the case with so many health issues, the so called solution often intensifies the problem.

The simple fact of the matter is, we choose to overlook the remedies provided by our Creator.  In choosing to abandon faith, we open one of three doors.  1.  We place ourselves in harms way to contract illness.  2.  We weaken our own immune systems with chemical medications.  3.  Use and overuse of unnatural antibiotics can actually cause the bacteria and or virus to mutate, thus exacerbating the problem or even causing a new problem.

We know in the US, health care and pharmaceuticals are big business.  So big in fact, the government wants more control of the industry, and has legislated to do just that.

YHWH created all the solutions humanity would ever need.  Humanity will be a contributing factor to the prophesied pestilence that is to come in the last days.

Our Creator wants to remove our illness, health care wants customers.

International News

An American family made headlines across the water for something good!  It's so refreshing to see positive foreign headlines about something America is doing.  As homeschooling seems to be becoming a wise choice, you may want to consider the example of these parents.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2311690/The-family-sending-home-schooled-children-college-age-12.html

Hopefully they aren't looking at years and years of student loan debt.

I'm not the formal education advocate I once was, but I do believe we should learn and want to learn, every day of our lives, for as long as we live.  This family certainly gives credence to possibility of a superior education found in home schooling, by encouraging their children's gifts and nurturing their natural abilities.  Seems to have been much more productive than programming and indoctrination!

Evicting Mice

For those who live in the country, the season is upon us that critters are also seeking shelter for the winter.  Most of us have experienced a mouse in the house, and those of us in the country probably experience it quite regularly.  There used to be an "old saying" about building a better mouse trap.  Well, I haven't, but I have discovered a way to make them feel unwelcomed.

First, of course, I have a cat, but he doesn't live in the house, so for a time, I think the mice actually sought shelter from the cold and the cat by coming indoors.  I hate emptying mouse traps, and eventually living in the country, it seemed as if the mousetraps were just fixtures.  I theorized the mice knew how to work around them.

One day at the farm store, my country girl life was changed!  I saw a "mouse repellent" for sale.  I looked at the ingredients and voila, I had that.  I then got to thinking about the places mice don't usually seek refuge and it made sense.  I make my own tooth paste, so that means at least twice a day, the lid comes off of my tooth detergent jar and the aroma of peppermint fills the air.  I've never seen any signs of a mouse in that bathroom.

I've now done this consistently for 3 months and for the first time since moving to the country over 8 years ago, I've not seen a trace of a mouse in the house.  I considered drawing an illustration of them packing up and moving when I took action.  Granted, they never lived long in my house, but those illustrations would involve traps and death . . .

Here is what I did.  I placed peppermint oil on cotton balls, set them on gauze in all the closets, laundry room, and pantry; refreshing the oil monthly.  In the kitchen, I placed the oil on napkins and set them in the corners of my counters, so the entire room is affected by the fragrance.  I almost forgot, as I think this is essential.  Under the kitchen sink and guest bathroom, where the plumbing comes in, I have a peppermint gauze right by the pipes.

For the first time in over 8 years, I've gone an entire season without a battle.  I have claimed the dominion granted to me by our Creator!  No creeping things creepeth in my home any more.  HalleluYah!

And G-d said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.  Torah of Holy Scripture

The Rainbow is Already a Symbol

Having just read the Torah portion in which the rainbow first appeared, I'm not trying to argue against anyone else's personal perspective of "choice or no choice."  I understand what it is to not be accepted.  I understand what it is to be shunned for who I am, while others are embraced, and it is quite disheartening to watch.  I can tell you first hand what it feels like to have society think and affirm one thing, while the actual circumstances are not what others see.  Rejection and exclusion doesn't just happen to the LGBT community.   What we do about our feelings and inclinations is a choice.  What we do in response to rejection or acceptance is a choice.   To socially redefine right and wrong really isn't our choice.

The rainbow has significance for many of us.  It first appeared in Scripture between our Creator and Noah, the man reported to have built the ark.

And G-d said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  I do set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth.  And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:  And I will remember My covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.  And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between G-d and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.  Genesis 9:12-16

Kids Should Be Allowed to Be Kids

There used to be a saying, "Kids will be kids," but no more.   Childhood is being redefined or stolen . . .  We've gone from allowing children to explore with their natural G-d given curiosity to intensive programming introducing an unnatural curiosity.

Children are naturally curious about a number of things.  Most children are drawn to nature . . . naturally.  The sad part of childhood now, however; is our society does not focus on the simple things of nature.  Many children, from a very early age, do not see much sunlight, much less enjoy the outdoors at their own pace or with siblings.  We began institutionalizing our children from birth, at least one generation ago.  Of course we didn't call it institutionalizing, it was "day care, pre-school, or head start."  This was the launch pad for Common Core Curriculum and much more subtle than "Youth Camps."

We here at the Goshen Gazette will be posting reports as Common Core Curriculum continues in our public school system.

The charges were dropped against this man, but that also means he originally faced charges for questioning Common Core Curriculum.   That's right, the father was arrested through the Q&A portion of the Town Hall Meeting for attempting to exercise Free Speech.

Chimera?

The term chimera was a reference in mythology to a creature comprised of the characteristics of more than one animal . . .

I remember reading about the possibility of genetically altering some animal DNA with human DNA on the pretext of possibly needed transplants . . . I stepped out of man-made health care many years ago, and none too soon, but this concept is really eerie.

I knew medical science was already using vessels from pigs in replacing valves, etc. which should give most logical folks pause, in consuming pork.  It must be fairly close to human flesh to be used in heart surgery.  Since I don't eat pork and I don't go to doctors, I don't feel this is my issue, but we need to really consider what may transpire if the DNA of animals is engineered with human DNA.

The article below covers a university study of DNA engineering on sheep.  These are animals in our food supply.  What happens when these animals mate and breed?  Will the engineered DNA be dominate?  We've already seen that with vegetables and Monsanto.

We are making the world a very scary, blurry place now that the wisdom of man which was already called foolishness by our Creator, is being funded to actually alter creation.  Creation was called, GOOD, by our Creator.

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/7681252/ns/health-cloning_and_stem_cells/t/scientists-create-animals-are-part-human/#.UfGUZ403tVN

I cannot imagine what the judgment will be for this kind of arrogance.

A Trend of Health Issues

 I haven't actually taken a survey, but it seems high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes, are at an all time high.  I realize I'm going to sound a little jaded with this next statement, but in the case of all three of these issues, there isn't a cure, only a long term symptom management, a.k.a. lifetime prescription.

As I read the statistics and the increase in prescriptions, and I didn't even address anti-anxiety medications, I can't help but notice two things.  One, it seems that all of our information is focused on making people upset or divided or hopeless.  Two, all of the programmed information is surrounded as well as includes pharmaceutical advertisement.  Then, there's the religious nationalism, that seems to keep people upset and angry, while television preachers are telling everyone to have a positive mental attitude.  Sort of reminds me of what Jeremiah was dealing with.

I'm really seeing a direct correlation between the anger that is incited by media and news, the health tests that reveal an " ongoing need" for one of the big pharmaceuticals, and the pressure to "keep the faith" when the guy talking is not walking in the Power!

Now, I certainly cannot make a diagnosis, but I can ask a few questions and I can share an observation.  How many people lived to a ripe old age before political hate mongering was an American pass time?  How many Americans lived with whatever ailed them or didn't before there were all the tests promoting results that required the latest pharmaceutical?  How many people feel "fine" until the test says they aren't?

This religious nationalism that has served to divide over hot button issues without resolution may actually be contributing to the fulfillment of the Words of Y'hshuwah, when He spoke of men's heart's failing them.

I can't imagine anything harder on the human body, than a diet in rebellion of the Creator's Instructions, anger and division of just what the American dream is, while hearing we must speak positive faith and demonstrate unconditional love!

Tzitziyot

The people of YHWH are promised health in obedience to the Commandments:  Exodus 15:26
And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of YHWH thy G-d, and wilt do that which is right in His sight, and wilt give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am YHWH Raphah, [your Healer.]
This was right after the children of Israel left Egypt and before Moses was given the Torah at Mt. Sinai.  It is an everlasting promise for our earthly bodies.

Numbers 15:37-40

And YHWH spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue:  And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of YHWH, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: That ye may remember, and do all My commandments, and be holy unto your G-d.   Please stay with me for a minute as we watch the amazing way this woman was able to be healed by reaching out to Y'hshuwah while being Torah observant.  The border of the garment in the Hebrew translated to the hem of the garment in the Greek.  This woman knew Torah.  She knew the importance of keeping the Commandments and statutes for health in this life. Matthew 9:20-22 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Y'hshuwah turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

 This woman with the issue of blood took the hem of Y'hshuwah's garment, never breaking Torah, nor was Messiah unclean for even a moment!  The statutes in Leviticus 15:19-25 were very strict regarding all the things that were not to be touched to remain clean.  Messiah never touched her in her state of uncleanness, and touching the hem of his garment was not disobedience to Torah.  The hem, or border [fringe] of the garment was not something sat upon or laid upon . . .

Leviticus 15:19, 25

And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even . . . And if a woman have an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her separation, or if it run beyond the time of her separation; all the days of the issue of her uncleanness shall be as the days of her separation: she shall be unclean.

Zach's great video about tzitziyot and the Scriptural account of this particular situation, I find to be so amazing and inspiring in my own life as a follower of Y'hshuwah and also a servant/child of YHWH.  Not only is wearing tzitziyot, walking in obedience, it is also walking in readiness of service to bring glory to YHWH.

State and Federal Laws

I followed a case for some time last year awaiting the final outcome earlier this year, and now that I've seen the results regarding DOMA, I'm going to draw a question of the parallel.  I'm not even interested in the reasoning behind either decision, I'm just pointing out the inconsistency.

The federal government now recognizes and affords full benefits for same sex marriage in the states that have legalized same sex marriage.

On the other hand, the DEA is still making busts in states that have legalized medical marijuana, and it's a federal offense.  The sentences are so off the chart that most agree to a plea bargain, so going to the Supreme Court is off the table as well.   But then, there's big money in Big Pharma, and citizen captivity in this particular issue.

 I will offer this perspective.  Nowhere in Scripture is marijuana forbidden, but it is in most states, so the people suffer.  Until Big Pharma came along and realized they couldn't have a patent, it was legal in the United States.  Torah, on the other hand has plenty to say about sexual sin.  The LGBT issue is not my sin of choice, although; I've chosen to commit a few myself, there is no question as to where our Creator stands on the subject.

Our Federal government has taken upon itself to keep nature illegal; while legalizing that which is unnatural.

Another Good Reason to Not Place our Faith in The Wisdom of Man

I will openly admit, this is an editorialized view.  I do not place my faith in the wisdom of man.  In Torah we find that YHWH told His people to bring their ailments to the High Priest.  According to the book of Hebrews, my High Priest is sitting at the right hand of YHWH. 

Psalms tells us YHWH created vegetation to eat and herbs for the service of humanity.  That information has been good enough for me, for well over a decade now.  My latest book, "Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?" tells of the actual quote of Messiah regarding physicians.  He said, "They that are whole need not a physician."   We are promised to be made whole in Messiah.

In light of the information in these articles, to be honest, I'd rather stand before the throne of YHWH and say, "I didn't know you wanted me to go to doctors . . ." than to stand at the mercy of those who are implanting these ideas and pharmaceuticals.

http://www.christianpost.com/news/neuroscientist-radical-religion-extreme-beliefs-may-one-day-be-cured-97121/cpf

http://worldtruth.tv/psychiatrists-drugging-children-for-social-justice/

We can argue the validity of the information in the articles but I have not seen one place in the New Testament in which Y'hshuwah Messiah sent anyone to see a physician, including Dr. Luke, and since He is the same yesterday, today and forever, according to Hebrews 13:8, I'll just be standing outside of the Health Care Reform and pharmaceutical revolution, in what will undoubtedly be labeled "radical and extreme beliefs."

Torah is quite clear in Exodus 15:26
And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of YHWH thy G-d, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am YHWH Raphah, your healer.

Reprogramming DNA

Some folks refer to DNA reprogramming as "junk science," but we need to remember evolution was termed and still is by many to be junk science as well, but that's not stopping it from being presented as fact.

Now political correctness tells us science says someone is born gay and you can't pray the gay away, but some science also tells us DNA can be reprogrammed . . . So, if someone is born a particular way, some science says with reprogramming, our DNA can be changed. Clearly this is not a recommendation for anyone to be forced into reprogramming, but for those who would like to change their life, it sounds like there is in fact evidence indicating that is truly possible.

Let's face facts. Behavior, any behavior is a choice. We can have a leaning or interest toward something, but taking action on that interest is a completely different matter.

http://www.holisticmedicineandspa.com/id58.html

http://wakeup-world.com/2011/07/12/scientist-prove-dna-can-be-reprogrammed-by-words-frequencies/ Contained the following:

>>>One can simply use words and sentences of the human language! This, too, was experimentally proven! Living DNA substance (in living tissue, not in vitro) will always react to language-modulated laser rays and even to radio waves, if the proper frequencies are being used.
This finally and scientifically explains why affirmations, autogenous training, hypnosis and the like can have such strong effects on humans and their bodies. It is entirely normal and natural for our DNA to react to language.

Something to think about in this claim . . .

Society appears to want to have it both ways, but clearly it's one way or the other. Experts cannot say it's impossible to change an interest or preference through prayer or faith, and then turn around and say, words can change the very core of a human being.

I have no reason to doubt that DNA can be altered. Monsanto does it all the time.
While I'm on the subject of genetic engineering, how do we know someone is born a specific way or if the genetically altered food changes the genes of the consumer? We know most soy crops are GMO, and many baby formulas contain soy. Organic unaltered soy contains properties that can affect hormone levels. How do we know genetically modified soy doesn't produce modified hormonal side effects in the consumer?

Whether humans can be reprogrammed or societally redesigned, change of behavior is possible. Words and images can alter and incite interests. If change of interests which resulted in different behavior were not possible, what would be the purpose of advertising?

http://www.collective-evolution.com/2011/09/02/scientist-prove-dna-can-be-reprogrammed-by-words-and-frequencies/

Obviously, I don't have scientific research, only questions, but thus far; the scientific research that has been done doesn't answer them.

Even if science hasn't fully proven words can change DNA, advertising, public education, and political agendas have proven words can change perspective and behavior.

Just wanting to see what this will look like
