Eagle of Saladin:
The "Eagle of Saladin" is the Egyptian coat of arms. The Eagle of Saladin holds a scroll on which the name of the state appears in Arabic script, "Arab Republic of Egypt". The eagle carries on its breast a shield with the flag's colors — but with a vertical instead of a horizontal configuration.
Earth Goblin:
A goblin is a legendary evil or mischievous grotesque dwarf-like daemon or monster that appeared in European stories and accounts during the Middle Ages. They are ascribed various (sometimes conflicting) abilities, temperaments and appearances depending on the story and country of origin. In some cases, goblins are little creatures related to the brownie and gnome. See Woodgnome

Earth Invasion:
Refers to an extraterrestrial society that invades Earth with the intent to exterminate and replace mankind, enslave it under a colonial system, to harvest people for food, or sometimes to destroy the earth altogether.
Earth Reels:
"The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again" (Is.24:20).
Planet Earth will reel to and fro as the result of a magnetic shift of grand proportions. This is descriptive of the agitation that occurs in an earthquake when everything is shaken from its foundation, and when trees and towers are shaken by the mighty concussion.

Earth Slave:
Slavery is a form of forced labor in which people are considered to be, or treated as, the property of others. Slaves can be held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase or birth, and deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to receive compensation (such as wages). Evidence of slavery predates written records, and has existed to varying extents, forms and periods in almost all cultures and continents.
Eat Clean Meals:
Most times when personal health trainers talk about eating clean, they aren't talking in terms of the Bible. For them, eating clean is simply the practice of avoiding all processed and refined foods. But does this qualify as "eating clean" according to the Bible?
God reveals which animals - including fish and birds - are suitable and unsuitable for human consumption in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. Although the lists aren't exhaustive, He reveals guidelines for recognizing animals that are acceptable for food.
He lists animals such as camels, rabbits and pigs as being unclean, or unfit to eat (Leviticus 11:4-8). He later lists such “creeping things” as moles, mice and lizards as unfit to eat (Leviticus 11:29-31), as well as four-footed animals with paws (cats, dogs, bears, lions, tigers, etc.) as unclean (Leviticus 11:27).
He tells us that salt and freshwater fish with fins and scales may be eaten (Leviticus 11:9-12), but water creatures without those characteristics (catfish, lobsters, crabs, shrimp, mussels, clams, oysters, squid, octopi, etc.) should not be eaten.
God also lists birds and other flying creatures that are unclean for consumption (Leviticus 11:13-19). He identifies carrion eaters and birds of prey as unclean, plus ostriches, storks, herons and bats.
Although God did not reveal the specific reasons some animals may be eaten and others must be avoided, we can make generalized conclusions based on the animals included in the two categories.
In listing the animals that should not be eaten, God forbids the consumption of scavengers and carrion eaters, which devour other animals for their food.
Animals such as pigs, bears, vultures and raptors can eat (and thrive) on decaying flesh. Predatory animals such as wolves, lions, leopards and cheetahs most often prey on the weakest (and at times the diseased) in animal herds.
When it comes to sea creatures, bottom dwellers such as lobsters and crabs scavenge for dead animals on the seafloor. Shellfish such as oysters, clams and mussels similarly consume decaying organic matter that sinks to the sea floor, including sewage.
Eat Deer Skin:
Deer meat is not USDA regulated, inspected or certified. Scientists at the University of Kentucky released a report in January 2006 about finding infectious prions in deer meat. It had been thought to be only in nervous-system tissue. The infected prions are what cause Chronic Wasting Disease, (CWD) a fatal form of brain degeneration. Like mad cow disease, and the human form of the disease known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob, they are all caused by aberrant prion proteins. Cooking the meat does not eliminate the risk of contracting CWD. Deer can spread chronic wasting disease through saliva and blood, which means no part of an infected animal can be considered safe to eat.
Other diseases in deer which makes eating their flesh potentially unsafe include: Bovine Tuberculosis and Hemorrhagic disease. In some states, metal cadmium has been found in organs of deer, which is considered a heavy metal and poisonous. Not to mention numerous parasites and organisms live in deer.
Eat Pig Skin:
According to the Bible, it is forbidden to eat pigs:
“You shall not eat any abomination. These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep. Every animal that parts the hoof and has the hoof cloven in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. Yet of those that chew the cud or have the hoof cloven you shall not eat these: the camel, the hare, and the rock badger, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, are unclean for you. And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch" (Deuteronomy 14:3-8).
One reason for God's rule forbidding pork is because of the digestive system of a pig. It is similar to ours, in that the stomach is very acidic. Pigs are gluttonous, never knowing when to stop eating. Their stomach acids become diluted because of the volume of food, allowing all kinds of vermin to pass through this protective barrier. Parasites, bacteria, viruses and toxins can pass into the pig's flesh because of over-eating. These toxins and infectious agents can be passed on to humans when they eat a pig's flesh.
Ebola Corpse:
Ebola virus is extremely contagious. When Ebola invades a human being, it incubates for a period of seven to ten days on average, then explodes with catastrophic force. Infected cells begin producing massive amounts of cytokine, tiny protein molecules that are extensively used in intercellular communication. This overproduction of cytokine wreaks havoc on the immune system and disrupts the normal behavior of the liver, kidneys, respiratory system, skin and blood. In extreme cases, small clots form everywhere, a process known as disseminated intravascular coagulation, followed by hemorrhaging. Blood fills the intestines, the digestive tract and the bladder, spilling out of the nose, eyes and mouth. Death occurs within a week. The virus spreads through infected blood and other bodily fluids; the corpse of an Ebola victim remains “hot” for days, and direct contact with a dead body is one of the main paths of transmission.

Eden is Heaven:
The garden of Eden was originally intended to be the eternal dwelling place of man. When man sinned against God, Man was cast out of the garden. Heaven by contrast is the destination place of the faithful. It is not physical but spiritual, being in the very presence of God. Eden is NOT heaven or similar to heaven.
Edgar Allan Poe:
Edgar Allan Poe was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre. Edgar Allan Poe made evil a central theme in his writings. Poe's best known fiction works are Gothic. His most recurring themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the effects of decomposition, concerns of premature burial, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning.
Egypt, Africa:
Egypt is a transcontinental country spanning the northeast corner of Africa and southwest corner of Asia via a land bridge formed by the Sinai Peninsula.
Its monuments, such as the Giza pyramid complex and its Great Sphinx, were constructed by its ancient civilization, which was one of the most advanced of its time. Its ancient ruins, such as those of Memphis, Thebes, Karnak, and the Valley of the Kings outside Luxor, are a significant focus of archaeological study and popular interest.
Egypt's Ra:
Ra was the ancient Egyptian solar deity. By the Fifth Dynasty (2494 to 2345 BC) he had become a major god in ancient Egyptian religion, identified primarily with the midday sun.
E-identity:
E-identity (e-passport) is the same as a regular passport with the addition of a small contactless integrated circuit (computer chip) embedded in the back cover. The chip securely stores the same data visually displayed on the photo page of the passport, and additionally includes a digital photograph. The inclusion of the digital photograph enables biometric comparison, through the use of facial recognition technology, at international borders.
Ejaculation:
Ejaculation means to blurt out, utter impulsively or to exclaim suddenly. In Egyptian mythology, Hu (also spelt Huh) is the deification of the first word, the word of creation, that Atum was said to have exclaimed upon ejaculating, in his masturbatory act of creating the Ennead.
Electric Field:
Electric field is defined as the electric force per unit charge. The concept of electric field was introduced by Michael Faraday. The electrical field force acts between two charges, in the same way that the gravitational field force acts between two masses.
The Earth's magnetic field is generated by a core of molten iron that surrounds the inner core of solid iron, each rotating at different rates. Charged particles moving around the electric field create a magnetic field. The magnetic field of the Earth can be compared with a dynamo. The dynamo of a bicycle creates a magnetic field, and therefore electricity. As long as you keep cycling, the inner magnets keep turning around and electric power is generated. The earth has a somewhat similar, though more complicated, principle that scientists refer to as a "hydromagnetic dynamo." Just like the bicycle dynamo, the magnetic field is generated in the earth’s core, because the liquid upper layer rotates with a different speed in relation to the earth’s core. There, the mechanical energy is transformed into magnetic energy, resulting in a North Pole and a South Pole.
If you change the poles of a dynamo, its direction of rotation would change. Expanding this principle, the earth also has to change its direction when the North Pole becomes the South Pole. See A Pole Shift
Electrons:
In 2007, Los Alamos scientists demonstrated conclusively how electromagnetic waves accelerate ordinary electrons in the belts of radiation outside Earth's atmosphere to a state where they become "killer electrons," particles that are hazardous to satellites, spacecraft, and astronauts.
Scientists have long pondered where the killer particles come from and how they accumulate in the radiation belts.
Some theories suggest that they originate in the sun, which produces similar particles, or are the remnants of cosmic rays from outside our solar system.
But the team at New Mexico's Los Alamos National Laboratory may have solved the mystery, and their findings suggest the particles actually form much closer to home.
Using satellite detectors to probe the outer radiation belt, the team found that killer electrons occur extremely unevenly.
Such localized peaks in intensity, the researcher say, could only be caused by electromagnetic waves accelerating electrons to "killer" status within the radiation belt.
The increase in electrons could also be due to nuclear testing in space, which has caused an artificial "pumping" of the Van Allen belt. Weapon debris carries a significant percentage of the energy of the detonation and this radioactive material releases enormous numbers of high energy electrons through beta decay. This phenomenon creates an artificial "trapped electron" radiation belt. The size and intensity of the belt is highly dependent on the yield, altitude, and latitude of the detonation. The energies of the weapon-induced trapped electrons are significantly higher than those of the natural environment. For example, a 50 kiloton (KT) weapon detonated at a 120 km altitude (75 miles) can produce electron densities several orders of magnitude higher than the natural electron environment in low earth orbit. These bomb-induced, elevated electron densities can last for months to years and significantly increase the total ionizing dose accumulated by space assets that transit these belts.
In 2008, scientists discovered an unidentified source of high-energy cosmic rays bombarding Earth from space. There is an unexpected surplus of cosmic ray electrons at very high energy - 300-800 billion electron volts coming from space. Cosmic Rays are mostly pieces of atoms. Normally almost 90% of all the incoming cosmic ray particles are protons because the surrounding electrons have been stripped during their high-speed (almost the speed of light) passage through the Galaxy.
According to John Wefel of Louisiana State University and Principal Investigator for ATIC, Advanced Thin Ionization Calorimeter, a NASA funded balloon-borne instrument high over Antarctica: "This electron excess cannot be explained by the standard model of cosmic ray origin. There must be another source relatively near us that is producing these additional particles."
Elect's of God:
"Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not" (Matt.24:23-26).
Matthew 24: 23-26 reveal two major points about false Messiahs. First, the false Messiah will not be visible and out in the open. Second, the false Messiah will do miracles in order to mislead and deceive many. It is important to avoid deception during the latter half of the tribulation because this is the time in which the antichrist, also known as the beast in Revelation, begins his global rule and requires all to take the mark of the beast in order to by or sell (Revelation 13:17). This is such an important time in history that God sends angelic messengers to specifically preach the gospel to the entire world and warn them of the consequences of accepting the mark of the beast (Revelation 14:6-13).
Embalms Body:
Egypt is credited with being the land where embalming began. During the period from 6000 BC to 600 AD approximately 400,000,000 bodies were mummified.
Embalming in Egypt was done for two reasons:
Religious
Greek historian Herodotus maintained that the Egyptians were the first people to believe in the immortality of the soul. They believed that the soul would never fully forsake the body as long as the body remained intact.
Embalming was for the purpose of preserving the body so that the soul could return to it after the completion of the "circle of necessity." This "circle of necessity" was a 3,000 year journey the soul was required to make before it could return to the body. At that time, the whole man would arise from the dead and live with the gods forever.
Sanitation
The writer Cassius maintained that embalming was developed to provide a solution to the problem of trying to bury the dead in the Nile valley which would be inundated on a frequent basis. The Egyptians apparently also noted that this unsanitary condition caused more deaths.
Embedded Text:
Embedded text is text which is incorporated into a digital image, and which is not represented by “text data” (e.g. not encoded text), but is represented as digital images of text, such as bit maps which appear to be text to a user.
Embedded-text often carries important messages regarding the where, what, and who of the content. This information clearly helps with the recognition and annotation of the content. Embedded-text within images and videos can be categorized as natural scene text and artificial text. Natural scene text refers to text that appears as part of the scene in images or videos; for example, a news video showing an event that happened in a recognizable location. Artificial text, on the other hand, is manually added to provide content to viewers. One example of artificial text is the closed caption of a video; another is the text banner box on a web image.
Spammers use embedded-text in images to avoid text-based anti-spam filters. Spam is the use of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately. While the most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam. E-mail spam is sent via "zombie networks", networks of virus- or worm-infected personal computers in homes and offices around the globe; many modern worms install a backdoor which allows the spammer access to the computer and use it for malicious purposes.
EM Weapons:
EM weapons (electromagnetic weapons or psychotropic weapons) are a type of directed energy weapons which use electromagnetic radiation to deliver heat, mechanical, or electrical energy to a target to cause pain or permanent damage. They can be used against humans, electronic equipment, and military targets generally, depending on the technology.
Some common bio-effects of electromagnetic or other non-lethal weapons include effects to the human central nervous system resulting in physical pain, difficulty breathing, vertigo, nausea, disorientation, or other systemic discomfort, as weapons not directly considered lethal can indeed cause cumulative damage to the human body.
Project Pandora, conducted by the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, WRAIR, included externally induced auditory input from pulsed microwave audiograms of words or oral sounds which create the effect of hearing voices that are not a part of the recipients own thought processes. Microwave pulses can also affect the epidermis (skin) and dermis, the thick sensitive layer of skin and connective tissue beneath the epidermis that contains blood, lymph vessels, sweat glands, and nerve endings, generating a burn from as far as 700 yards.
Encoded Maths:
Cryptography (or cryptology; from Greek "hidden, secret") is the practice and study of hiding information. Modern cryptography intersects the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and engineering. Applications of cryptography include ATM cards, computer passwords, and electronic commerce.
Enemy of Man:
Is any adversary or any hostility shown towards a person.
Energy Rod: See Nuclear Rod
Eris Aliens:
Aliens originating from the planet Eris. Eris is known as Nibiru by the UFO community. Nibiru, in Babylonian Astronomy translates to "Planet of Crossing" or "Point of Transition". The alien inhabitants of Nibiru are the Anunnaki. See Anunnaki
Eris Battle:
In Greek mythology, Eris is the goddess of warfare and strife. She stirs up jealousy and envy to cause fighting and anger among men. At the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, the parents of the Greek hero Achilles, all the gods with the exception of Eris were invited, and, enraged at her exclusion, she spitefully caused a quarrel among the goddesses that led to the Trojan war. In the astronomical world, the planet Eris stirred up a great deal of trouble among the international astronomical community when the question of its proper designation led to a raucous meeting of the IAU in Prague. At the end of the conference, IAU members voted to demote Pluto and Eris to dwarf-planet status. Eris was discovered by astronomers in 2005. Authors like Zecharia Sitchin published books about the planets existence long before it was discovered by astronomers. These claims were for the most part dismissed as fringe science or pseudoscience by the mainstream scientific communities of archaeology and astronomy.
Eris battle may also refer to a possible war between Earth and Eris. Eris aliens may be planning to invade planet Earth sometime in the future.
Eroticism:
Eroticism is the quality of sexual excitement. In other words, if something is sexually exciting, then it is said to be erotic. Some things are designed and made especially to make people feel erotic. Things that are designed to make people feel erotic are called "erotica" are works of art, including literature, photography, film, sculpture and painting, that deal substantively with erotically stimulating or sexually arousing descriptions.
Escape Plagues:
"And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts" (Rev. 19-21).
This group is composed of those who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. The Seal of God and the Mark of the Beast are vital issues in these last days.
ET Works:
ET (Emerging Technology) works represent contemporary advances and innovation around the 21st century in various fields of technology. Various converging technologies have emerged in the technological convergence of different systems which evolving towards performing similar tasks.
Many writers, including computer scientist Bill Joy, have identified clusters of technologies that they consider critical to man's future. Joy warns that the technology could be used by elites for good or evil. They could use it as "good shepherds" for the rest of man, or decide everyone else is superfluous and push for mass extinction those made unnecessary by technology.
E-trademark:
An E-trademark is a distinctive sign or indicator used by an individual, business organization, or other legal entity to identify that the products or services online to consumers with which the trademark appears originate from a unique source, and to distinguish its products or services from those of other entities.
Evil Backward:
Burton Wolfe, a priest in the Church of Satan, claims in his book "Introduction to The Satanic Bible" that according to Anton Lavey (founded the Church of Satan in 1966), "evil" is "live" spelled backward and should be indulged in.
Evil Eleven:
According to Aleister Crowley´s, The Book of the Law: Liber al vel legis, "My number is 11, as all their numbers who are of us. The Five Pointed Star, with a Circle in the Middle, and the circle is Red. My colour is black to the blind, but the blue and gold are seen of the seeing. Also I have asecret glory for them that love me" (chapter 1:60). Crowley was also a magick (with a "k") practitioner. The Anglo-Saxon k in Magick is a means of indicating the kind of magic which Crowley performed. K is the eleventh letter of several alphabets, and eleven is the principal number of magick, because it is the number attributed to the Qliphoth - the underworld of chaotic forces that have to be mentally conquered before magick can be performed.
The Pagan assigns numbers to objects, planets, or an idea. One of history's greatest Satanist's, W. Wynn Wescott who was extremely influential in the latter part of the 19th Century explains: "... so 11 is the essence of all that is sinful, harmful, and imperfect."
The number 11 generally has negative connotations. Number 11 is called an evil number; it is an omen of Defeat or Death
The first Great War, World War 1, ended on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month. To this day, victims and veterans are remembered at that specific time.
May 8, 1945, World War II Allies formally accepted the unconditional surrender of the armed forces of Nazi Germany and the end of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. When fighting in Europe ended, approximately eleven million German soldiers were held as prisoners of war, many of them by the Soviet Union.
The number eleven is also related to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. For instance: The State of New York was the 11th State added to the Union. The first plane to hit the towers was American Airlines Flight 11. Flight AA11 had 11 crew members - 2 pilots and 9 flight attendants. The WTC Twin Towers standing side by side, look like the number 11. The 1st Fire Unit to arrive to the WTC towers was FDNY Unit 1. Unit 1 lost 11 firemen.
Evil Gatlin:
Children of the Corn was released in 1984. Based on the short story by Stephen King, the film tells the story of the town of Gatlin, Nebraska. A demonic god, referred to as “He Who Walks Behind the Rows”, has commanded that the children of Gatlin kill their parents and all adults to ensure that the cornfields will prosper.
As the years go by, the children continue to sacrifice those who age into adulthood, and any interlopers that happen to stumble into town.

Evil Saint:
Outside of United States, Saint Nicholas (also known as Santa Claus in the United States) has a much darker side. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, St. Nicholas visits children accompanied by a devil. But an angel is usually there to protect the children, too. In the Netherlands, a white-bearded Sinterklaas visits children accompanied by "Black Peter," who may carry off disobedient children. See Santa Claus
Evil Stare:
Evil stare or evil eye is a look that is believed by many cultures to be able to cause injury or bad luck on the person at whom it is directed for reasons of envy or dislike.
Evil Talks:
"Brothers, do not speak evil of one another" (James 4:11). "Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you" (Eph.4:31).
Evil talks or evil speaking is to speak that which is injurious; therefore one should say nothing that would injure any man. If you speak mean, angry, hurtful words, you are most likely a mean, angry, hurtful person. If we would remove negative words—gossip, slander and divisiveness—from our conversation, it would automatically improve our lives and the lives of those around us. According to the Bible: "For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile" (1Peter 3:10). The primary use of the tongue should be to praise God. "My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD" (Ps.145:21).
Excessive:
Excessive can be defined as exceeding the usual bounds of something; extravagant; immoderate; unrestrained.
The Bible states: "And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things" (1Cor.9:25). Temperate can be defined as someone who exhibits self-restraint. This is synonymous with moderation. Moderation is the opposite of excess, and the Bible clearly teaches that we should be known for our moderation. Proverbs tells us that if we do not live in moderation, i.e. if we are drunkards and gluttons, the hallmarks of excess, we will come to poverty.
Being temperate means to be under self control, or to have rule over your own spirit. It is strongly implied that if we can control ourselves, we would not fall into excess and thus be moderate. As a matter of fact, self control or temperance is a sign that we have the Holy Spirit within us.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law" (Gal.5:22-23).
Executor:
An executor is entrusted with responsibility for handling a deceased person's earthly affairs. Essentially, an executor is charged with protecting a deceased person's property until all debts and taxes have been paid, and seeing that what's left is transferred to the people who are entitled to it. The Bible states: "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matt.6:19-21). The word, “treasures”, is very broad and all-inclusive, meaning wealth, costly things such as property, lands, gold and precious stones; possession including money. Jesus says there are treasures in heaven! There are commodities far more precious than automobiles, houses and electronic devices of communication. Laying up treasures for ourselves on earth is an evidence that our hope, faith and trust are in our wealth and riches. We must provide for the present and future needs of our family (2 Corinthians 12:14; 1 Timothy 5:8) but we must not put our hope or trust in riches (Job 31:24-28; Mark 10:24,25).
Jesus also warns that our inheritance on earth can be stolen. The story of the two brothers, Jacob and Esau, is a classic example of our inheritance can be stolen from us by deceptive means. In ancient times, the birthright was a very important and sacred thing. It belonged to the firstborn. The family name and titles were to pass along to the eldest son. He would also receive a chief portion of the inheritance. But it was more than just a title to the physical assets of a family. It was also a spiritual position, and in the case of the people of God, God would lead the family through patriarchs, or fathers (Hebrews 1:1-2). Additionally, in the special case of Esau and Jacob, that meant the one to whom belonged the birthright was the one through who the covenant promise made to their grandfather, Abraham, would be realized. Ultimately, the Messiah would come through the holder of the birthright and bless the nations of the earth. Esau was the firstborn, and the birthright was his. But like many, he failed to appreciate its value and sacredness.
"...When Jacob had cooked stew, Esau came in from the field and he was famished; and Esau said to Jacob, 'Please let me have a swallow of that red stuff there, for I am famished.' Therefore his name was called Edom. But Jacob said, 'First sell me your birthright.' Esau said, 'Behold, I am about to die; so of what use then is the birthright to me?' And Jacob said, 'First swear to me"; so he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and rose and went on his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright." (Gen.25:29-34).
For a pot of stew, poor, hungry Esau sold his birthright. Such crass behavior would be a little like selling your wedding ring for a hamburger cause you had not eaten all day, only worse. It tells of Esau's attitude toward the things of God; His purpose and His will. It shows a lack of reverence and respect. It shows the same thing we see in too many people today when it comes to how little they regard the Lord.
Explaining:
To offer reasons for or a cause of; justify: explain an error. This is a reference about making excuses for things. In explaining something a person attempts to maximize or minimize an issue by weighing an action against a desired result. In Luke 14, Jesus told a wonderful parable about excuse-making. He says that someone gave a great dinner and invited many guests, but they all began to make excuses. "The first said unto him, ' I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.' Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.' Another said, 'I have married a wife and therefore I cannot come.' Then the master of the house being angry said to the servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. And the servant said to the Lord, it is done as thou has commanded, and yet there is room. And the Lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled."
People lives are so full that most can’t seem to find time for God. Everyday people come up with explanations for why they can’t read the bible, why they can’t pray, why they can’t go to church. But God takes "no explanations."
Extra Large:
A garment size for a very large person. If you’re carrying many extra pounds, you face a higher-than-average risk of a whopping 50 different health problems. These health conditions include the nation’s leading causes of death—heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain cancers—as well as less common ailments such as gout and gallstones.
Eye of Satan:
The eye of Satan, eye of Lucifer or the evil eye is a widespread belief that unlucky events can ensue if you attract the attention of particular people. These people, sometimes involuntarily, sometimes voluntarily, can cast a malignant spell on others simply by looking at them. The effects on victims vary; some have them afflicted with bad luck of various sorts. Others believe the evil eye has even more baleful powers, that it can cause disease, wasting away, and even death. The evil eye is the favorite symbol of Satanists. To them it simply represents the eye of Satan seeing all and is usually atop a pyramid (the eye of Horus):
“Called the 'mal ochio' (evil eye), this object is regarded by all Satanists as the symbol of Lucifer.”--- William J. Schnoebelen, James R. Spencer Whited Sepulchers, p. 20
'In Egyptian Mythology, Horus IS Lucifer'. ---Former Satanist, William Schnoebelen, Masonry: Beyond The Light, p. 197
'The All-Seeing Eye was representative of the omniscience of Horus, the Sun God'.---Magic Symbols, by Frederick Goodman, p. 103, Satanic symbols book
This "eye" is called the "third eye" of clairvoyance in the Hindu religion, the eye of Osiris, the eye of Horus or the eye of the sun god Ra in Egypt, and the All-Seeing Eye in Freemasonry. Also referred to as the eye of Providence, “the eye never slumbers nor sleeps".

Faery Light:
Christmas lights are generally known as faery lights. Faeries are normally described as human in appearance and having magical powers. Their origins are less clear in the folklore, being variously dead, or some form of demon, or a species completely independent of humans or angels.
Falling Away:
Falling away is a revolt or rebellion against God. According to the Bible:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition" (2 Thes. 2:3).
According to Paul a tragic “falling away” from Jesus Christ and Bible Scripture would eventually occur within Christianity and that “the man of sin” would arise (2 Thes. 2:3). This “man of sin” is the same power as the “little horn” with “eyes like the eyes of a man” (Dan. 7:8), and “the beast” (Rev. 13). Even in his own day, Paul saw errors creeping into the Church, and declared: “the mystery of iniquity doth already work.” (2 Thes. 2:7). Paul warned that after his death, from among “the elders of the church,” men would “arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” (Acts 20:17, 30). This apostasy would result in a departure from God’s Word and the original faith as taught by Jesus Christ (1 Tim. 4:1). Other New Testament writers warned that deceptions were entering the Church. (2 Peter 2:1; 1 John 2:18-19; Jude 1:3-4). See A Perdition
Fallen Church:
A church that has departed from Biblical Scripture and the Gospel. See Laodicea Church
False God Azna:
In the Bible, God warns us not to worship false gods. "You shall have no other gods before me" (Ex.20:3). A false god is anything that a person worships and honors instead of the true Lord God.
Sylvia Browne has formed her own church Novus Spiritus. In her book, "Mother God", reveals that "Azna" is the sacred name the Divine feminine is known by on the other side. Azna does not exist. There is no record of Azna worship anywhere in history. Azna is a figment of Sylvia Browne's imagination. Sylvia Browne is not a prophet. She is simply profiting off of gullible people. Don't buy into it.
False Healers:
False healers claim to perform miracles. All who claim the power to heal are instructed in Luke 4:23 "Physician, heal thyself." Many alleged cures by false healers have involved fraud, as with Marjoe Gortner and Peter Popoff. Popoff pretended to get messages from God when he was really getting messages from his wife via an earpiece. Mrs. Popoff got her information from cards that the believers fill out when they attend the faith-healing exhibition.
Many people seek out these people because all other means of a cure have failed. They look at a miracle as their last chance to get their health back. False healers understand this human weakness and they use it to get what they want, money. There have always been false healers who prey on the suffering and the desperate in order to accumulate wealth.
False Language:
Speaking in tongues is the fluid vocalizing (or, less commonly, the writing) of speech-like syllables, often as part of religious practice. Though some consider these utterances to be meaningless, those that use them consider them to be part of a holy language. The true gift of speaking in tongues is a normal language, spoken somewhere on earth, but not learned by the linguistic processes by which we ordinarily learn languages; yet it is clearly understandable by anyone who would happen to speak that language. It is not some unknown tongue in the sense that it is different from any language spoken on earth. It is spoken somewhere on earth, if it is the true gift of tongues. This rules out all gibberish, stammering, stuttering, or repetitious sounds. See A Babbling Church
May also refer to FALSE: an esoteric programming language designed by Wouter van Oortmerssen in 1993, named after his favorite Boolean value. It is a small Forth-like stack-oriented language, with syntax designed to make the code inherently obfuscated, confusing, and unreadable.
False Market:
A market where prices are manipulated and impacted by erroneous information, preventing the efficient negotiation of prices. These types of markets will often be marred by volatile swings because the true value of the market is clouded by the misinformation.
False Signs: See 'See the Sign'
Family Dogs:
Family dogs are domesticated animals. All domesticated animals were once wild animals. Domesticated animals are those that have been bred in captivity for a number of generations. Domestication creates unnatural ways for the animals to live and feed.
The lives of family dogs are restricted to human homes where they must obey commands and can only eat, drink, and even urinate when humans allow them to. Although one could say the same thing about human children, the overwhelming number of human children mature to become autonomous, independent beings.
Many family dogs are also kept in crates, which is just a euphemism for a cage. These confined spaces can be very stressful for a dog because it prevents the dog from exhibiting natural behavior.
Many family dogs also lack insufficient companionship. Dogs are pack animals, meaning they have an instinct to live among a group. Dogs need to be able to interact with other dogs of their own breed.
Historically, the Scriptures have been used to justify keeping pets. According to the book of Genesis, God created animals, including human beings, on the sixth day. In Genesis 1:28, God says: "Have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth." Immediately after, in Genesis 1:29, God states: "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food." Having dominion does not mean that we have a right to keep dogs in captivity as pets.
Human homes can also provide many dangers for a dog. For instance, a veterinarian found 62 hair bands and 8 boxer shorts inside a dogs stomach.
Fascination:
The act of fascinating, bewitching, or enchanting; enchantment; witchcraft; the exercise of a powerful or irresistible influence on the affections or passions; unseen, inexplicable influence.
Fatima Miracle:
Fatima was the moon goddess in pre-Islamic Arabia. Her name means The Creatress. She was also known as Source Of The Sun, Tree Of Paradise, the Moon, and Fate. She existed from the beginning of the material world.
On October 13, 1917, at Fatima, Portugal, before an estimated 70,000 people, the first major recorded sun miracle happened. An apparition appeared before three young children (Jacinta, Francisco, and Lucia), who described a lovely lady "more brilliant than the sun." The lady spoke and told them:
"I am the Lady of the Rosary, I have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and ask for pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. Let them continue saying it everyday.”
As the Lady was about to leave she pointed to the sun. The rain had stopped and the clouds parted and the sun began to whirl in the sky, scattering rays of multicolored light lighting up the entire countryside. The sun whirled for three minutes, stopped and, then, resumed again a second and third time lasting a total of twelve minutes. The sun spun faster each time and at the end seemed to tear itself from the sky and began plunging to earth.

Fear of Allah god:
The Arabic word for the “fear of Allah” is taqwâ . It comes from the root word meaning “to protect from something, to prevent”. A person shows their fear of Allah by carrying out what Allah has commanded of him and abstaining from what Allah has prohibited him.
Allah says:
“And We had enjoined upon those who were given the Scripture before – as well as yourselves – to fear Allah.” [ Sûrah al-Nisâ' : 131]
“O you who believe! Fear Allah as He ought to be feared and do not die except as believers.” [ Sûrah Âl `Imrân : 102]
“Indeed, Allah is with those who fear Him and those who do good.” [ Sûrah al-Nahl : 128]
“And My mercy encompasses all things, and I shall decree it for those who fear Me.” [ Sûrah al-A`râf : 156]
“He is worthy of being feared and worthy of granting forgiveness.” [ Sûrah al-Muddaththir : 56]
“And whoever fears Allah – He will pardon him his sins and grant him a great reward.” [ Sûrah al-Talâq : 5]
“Indeed, those who fear Allah will be among gardens and rivers, in a seat of truth near an All-Powerful Sovereign.” [ Sûrah al-Qamar : 54-55]
According to Muslims, the fear of Allah is the path to forgiveness, salvation, and the attainment of Allah's mercy.
Allah is not the loving God that we find in Christianity. In many places in the Qur'an we find Allah's love is conditional. Muslims have to do something to earn the love of Allah, he does not love unless that love is earned. The Qur'an tells the readers that they should fear Allah. Not only do they fear their God but they are deathly afraid of being eternally damned by an angry Allah. Allah does not give much assurance of salvation. The only Muslims guaranteed a place in Heaven is those who die in a Jihad or those who die while on a pilgrimage to Mecca. They hope they will be allowed into Heaven, but there is no certainty. This is why Islam is the apex of a "works" religion. They must do all that the Qur'an tells them to do if they are going to have any chance of getting into Heaven.
Christians should not fear Allah. Christians should fear God. Allah is not God. For the unbeliever, the fear of God is the fear of the judgment of God and eternal death, which is eternal separation from God (Luke 12:5; Hebrews 10:31). For the believer, the fear of God is something much different. Proverbs 1:7 declares, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge.” A biblical fear of God, for the believer, includes understanding how much God hates sin and fearing His judgment on sin—even in the life of a believer. Hebrews 12:5-11 describes God’s discipline of the believer. While it is done in love (Hebrews 12:6), it is still a fearful thing. As children, the fear of discipline from our parents no doubt prevented some evil actions. The same should be true in our relationship with God. We should fear His discipline, and therefore seek to live our lives in such a way that pleases Him.
Believers are not to be scared of God. We have no reason to be scared of God. We have God's promise that nothing can separate us from His love (Romans 8:38-39). We have His promise that He will never leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Fearing God means having such a reverence for Him that it has a great impact on the way we live our lives. The fear of God is respecting Him, obeying Him, submitting to His discipline, and worshiping Him.
Federal Grant:
In the United States Federal grants are economic aid issued by the United States government. Federal grant funds are awarded for a specific “public purpose” and grantees must use those funds as agreed and within certain parameters including the Office of Management and Budget Circulars and granting agency guidelines. Unfortunately, fraud, waste and misuse of these funds can and does occur. These issues can range from poorly managed programs to the extremes of intentional criminal fraud schemes. The consequences of grant fraud can include debarment from receiving future funding, administrative recoveries of funds, civil law suits and criminal prosecution– or a combination of all or some of these remedies.
Federal List:
More than 12 years after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, federal agencies continue to keep lists on hand containing names of individuals of interest: people who often end up un-cleared to enter or exit the US due to an array of activity that could be considered suspicious or terrorist-related to government officials.
Americans and foreign nationals who end up on the government’s radar are offered little chance to find out how they ended there, or even file an appeal.
According to a recently issued General Accounting Office report, the government maintains more than a dozen watch lists, including:
Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control -- Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list
Department of State -- Terrorist Exclusion List
Transportation Security Administration -- No Fly list and Selectee list
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security - Denied Persons List and the Entities List
FBI -- Most Wanted List and Watch List
Department of State, Office of Defense Trade Controls -- Debarred Parties List
Each list is developed according to different criteria, with information from various sources, foreign and domestic, and each provides varying degrees of information. For example, some entries include not only names but also dates of births, associations, birthplaces, and aliases. Others include only a name or even just a first initial and last name. Furthermore, while some lists are available to the public (the SDN list), others are not, such as the No Fly list.
Federal Reserve:
The Federal Reserve System (also known as the Federal Reserve, and informally as the Fed) is the central banking system of the United States. It is considered to be an independent central bank. It is independent since its decisions do not have to be ratified by the President or Congress. However, Conress still maintains oversight authority. Under the Humphrey-Hawkins Act of 1978, the Federal Reserve must submit a report on the economy to Congress by February 20 and July 20 of each year.
The Federal Reserve was created by Congress in 1913 by the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act, largely as a response to a series of financial panics or bank runs, particularly a severe panic in 1907. In 1910, before the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, the federal debt was only $1 billion, or $12.40 per citizen. State and local debts were practically non-existent. By 1920, after only 6 years of Federal Reserve, the federal debt had jumped to $24 billion, or $228 per person. In 1960, the federal debt reached $284 billion, or 1,575 per citizen. By 1981, the federal debt passed $1 trillion, and was growing exponentially. State and local debts were more than the federal, and with business and personal debts, the total was over $6 trillion. In 1992, the federal debt alone was over $4 trillion. Now in 1996, the federal debt has reached the $5 trillion and it is continuing to grow wildly out of control.
Over time, the roles and responsibilities of the Federal Reserve System have expanded and its structure has evolved. Its duties today, according to official Federal Reserve documentation, fall into four general areas:
1. Conducting the nation's monetary policy
2. Supervising and regulating banking institutions
3. Maintaining the stability of the financial system and containing systemic risk that may arise in financial markets.
4. Providing financial services to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign official institutions.
Federal Reserve System is not "owned" by anyone and is not a private, profit-making institution. Instead, it is an independent entity within the government, having both public purposes and private aspects.
Female Archangel:
Every reference to angels in Scripture refers to them in the masculine gender. The Greek word for “angel” in the New Testament, angelos, is in the masculine form. In fact, the feminine form of angelos does not exist. In the many appearances of angels in the Bible, never is an angel referred to as “she”. The only named angels in the Bible—Michael, Gabriel, Lucifer—had male names and all were referred to in the masculine. There are no female archangels.
Female Husband:
The Nadi people of Kenya practice female-female marriages. The female-female marriages are a socially approved way for a woman to take over the social and economic roles of a husband and father.
The female husband is to provide marriage payments to obtain her wife. She must renounce her female duties such as housework and take on the obligations of a husband. No sexual relations are permitted between the female husband and her new wife. The female husband will arrange a male consort for the new wife so she will be able to bear children. Those children consider the female husband to be their father, not the biological father, because she is the socially designated father. If the child is asked who their father is the child will name the female husband.
May also refer to any woman who marries another woman and takes that woman to be her husband.
Ferocious:
Marked by extreme and violent energy.
Fiat Papers:
Fiat papers or fiat money is money that has value only because of government regulation or law. The term derives from the Latin fiat, meaning "let it be done", as such money is established by government decree.
Paper is only worth what it costs to create the "paper." Instead, the government declares that this essentially worthless paper is legal tender by government decree. Almost all paper currencies worldwide are "fiat" money. Their paper is not backed by gold or silver.
In a fiat monetary system, there is no restrain on the amount of money that can be created. This allows unlimited credit creation. Initially, a rapid growth in the availability of credit is often mistaken for economic growth, as spending and business profits grow and frequently there is a rapid growth in equity prices. In the long run, however, the economy tends to suffer much more by the following contraction than it gained from the expansion in credit.
In most cases, a fiat monetary system comes into existence as a result of excessive public debt. When the government is unable to repay all its debt in gold or silver, the temptation to remove physical backing rather than to default becomes irresistible. This was the case in 70's when US President Nixon ended the international gold standard and for the first time no currency in the world had a gold backing.
History should have taught us that fiat money systems do not work, and ultimately contribute to the downfall of those currencies and the countries that implement them. The problem with a fiat currency is that despite acts of government to impart value to its currency, it does not have any real value and governments who implement a fiat system, often do so with the intention of ‘printing’ more money (something we now know as ‘quantitative easing’). When the government makes too much of this money it causes inflation. Quantitative easing may cause higher inflation than desired if the amount of easing required is overestimated, and too much money is created.
Many inflation experts and currency analysts believe a US dollar crash may be imminent due to this endless “printing” of money by the Federal Reserve Bank. See Dollar Crash, Federal Reserve, and Bank Collapse
Fiendishly:
Diabolically; as a devil; in an evil manner; extremely wicked or cruel
Fine Print:
Fine print, small print, or "mouse print" is less noticeable print smaller than the more obvious larger print it accompanies that advertises or otherwise describes or partially describes a commercial product or service. The larger print that is used in conjunction with fine print by the merchant often has the effect of deceiving the consumer into believing the offer is more advantageous than it really is, via a legal technicality which requires full disclosure of all (even unfavorable) terms or conditions, but does not specify the manner (size, typeface, coloring, etc.) of disclosure. There is also strong evidence to suggest that the fine print is not read by the majority of consumers.
Fine print may say the opposite of what the larger print says. For example, if the larger print says "pre-approved" the fine print will say "subject to approval."
Firefighter:
"John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire" (Luke 3:16).
Because God is a consuming fire (Heb. 12:29) there is no escaping his fire. No one will be able to escape from it by extinguishing it. Isaiah says of that fire, "Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor a fire to sit before it" (Isaiah 47:14). After it has accomplished its work of destruction, that fire will go out. No one can deliver themselves from its flame by putting it out, but finally not a coal will be left. The fire of the Lord is unquenchable or fire that cannot be quenched. To quench means to extinguish or put out. No one will be able to put out the fire of hell. See Will Burn
Fire Goddess: See Goddess Pele
Fire is Anger:
In Deuteronomy 4:24, God's anger becomes so hot that He describes Himself as being a consuming fire.
The Bible does frequently use the image of eternal fire in order to represent God's anger with sin, which will result in the total destruction of the sinner in the grave. Sodom was punished with "eternal fire" (Jude v. 7), i.e. it was totally destroyed due to the wickedness of the inhabitants. Likewise Jerusalem was threatened with the eternal fire of God's anger, due to the sins of Israel: "Then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched" (Jer. 17:27).
Similarly, God punished the land of Idumea with fire that would "not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste...the owl and the raven shall dwell in it...thorns shall come up in her palaces" (Is. 34:9-15).
Time and again God's anger with the sins of Jerusalem and Israel is likened to fire: "Mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place (Jerusalem)...it shall burn, and shall not be quenched" (Jer. 7:20; other examples include Lam. 4:11 and 2 Kings 22:17).
Fire is also associated with God's judgment of sin, especially at the return of Christ: "For, behold, the day cometh that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up" (Mal. 4:1).
Fire Sacrifice:
Yagna is the worship of fire by Hindus. It is commonly translated as Fire Sacrifice.
Fire has been an object of worship in many ancient cultures across the globe. The Zoroastrians (Parsis) who originated in ancient Iran are called Fire Worshippers till today. The Hindus also worship the fire in all their religious rituals.

Fishing Net:
More than 100 million tons of fish are caught in fishing nets every year. Fishing nets can be up to 23,000 meters sq. The size of four football fields. Have the ability to catch up to 500 tons of fish. Fishing nets catch a lot of fish but meanwhile destroy even more marine wildlife. Sometimes, 80%-90% of caught fish are bycatch (ocean life that is unintentionally caught); many do not survive. Fishing nets are often placed between two boats and more through the water once the fish swim into them there is no escape because fish can't swim backwards.
Fish People:
Fish people are mermaids. A mermaid is a mythological aquatic creature with a female human head and torso and the tail of a fish. The male equivalent is a merman.
A picture from the Nuremburg Bible of 1483 shows a mermaid, merman and mer-dog swimming near Noah's Ark. According to this illustration of the Biblical story of the Flood, when land animals were rescued in the ark, the mermaids and merman stayed nearby to weather the storm.
Fissionable:
Capable of undergoing nuclear fission.
Flag of Israel:
The flag of Israel was adopted on October 28, 1948. It depicts a blue Star of David on a white background, between two horizontal blue stripes. The flag was designed for the Zionist Movement in 1891. The basic design recalls the Tallit, the Jewish prayer shawl, which is white with blue stripes. The hexagram in the centre is the Magen David ("shield of David"). It became a Jewish symbol starting in late medieval Prague, and was adopted by the First Zionist Congress in 1897.
The hexagram is a mandala symbol called shatkona yantra. It is found on ancient South Indian Hindu temples built thousands of years ago. It symbolizes the nara-narayana, or perfect meditative state of balance achieved between Man and God, and if maintained, results in "moksha," or "nirvana" (release from the bounds of the earthly world and its material trappings).
Flakka Drugs
Are we on the verge of a real life zombie apocalypse? There is a new drug quickly sweeping across the country.
Flakka, a highly addictive designer drug that causes terrible hallucinations, paranoia and psychosis. Flakka, sometimes known as gravel, is closely related to bath salts, a synthetic cathinone. Flakka comes as a foul-smelling white or pink crystal that, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, you can snort, eat, inject or even vape.
The drug is linked to a number of bizarre incidents over the last few years. Police say a 19-year-old college student may have been on the hallucinogen when he allegedly stabbed a couple and ate one of the victim's faces. Authorities said it took multiple officers and police dogs to stop the Florida State University sophomore on Tuesday from biting pieces of flesh off the man, even after he was hit with a stun gun by sheriffs, according to the Palm Beach Post.
The drug is believed to cause zombie like behavior. It has been called "instant insanity". The effects of the drug last for 30 days.

The "Eagle of Saladin" is the Egyptian coat of arms. The Eagle of Saladin holds a scroll on which the name of the state appears in Arabic script, "Arab Republic of Egypt". The eagle carries on its breast a shield with the flag's colors — but with a vertical instead of a horizontal configuration.
Earth Goblin:
A goblin is a legendary evil or mischievous grotesque dwarf-like daemon or monster that appeared in European stories and accounts during the Middle Ages. They are ascribed various (sometimes conflicting) abilities, temperaments and appearances depending on the story and country of origin. In some cases, goblins are little creatures related to the brownie and gnome. See Woodgnome

Earth Invasion:
Refers to an extraterrestrial society that invades Earth with the intent to exterminate and replace mankind, enslave it under a colonial system, to harvest people for food, or sometimes to destroy the earth altogether.
Earth Reels:
"The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again" (Is.24:20).
Planet Earth will reel to and fro as the result of a magnetic shift of grand proportions. This is descriptive of the agitation that occurs in an earthquake when everything is shaken from its foundation, and when trees and towers are shaken by the mighty concussion.

Earth Slave:
Slavery is a form of forced labor in which people are considered to be, or treated as, the property of others. Slaves can be held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase or birth, and deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to receive compensation (such as wages). Evidence of slavery predates written records, and has existed to varying extents, forms and periods in almost all cultures and continents.
Eat Clean Meals:
Most times when personal health trainers talk about eating clean, they aren't talking in terms of the Bible. For them, eating clean is simply the practice of avoiding all processed and refined foods. But does this qualify as "eating clean" according to the Bible?
God reveals which animals - including fish and birds - are suitable and unsuitable for human consumption in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. Although the lists aren't exhaustive, He reveals guidelines for recognizing animals that are acceptable for food.
He lists animals such as camels, rabbits and pigs as being unclean, or unfit to eat (Leviticus 11:4-8). He later lists such “creeping things” as moles, mice and lizards as unfit to eat (Leviticus 11:29-31), as well as four-footed animals with paws (cats, dogs, bears, lions, tigers, etc.) as unclean (Leviticus 11:27).
He tells us that salt and freshwater fish with fins and scales may be eaten (Leviticus 11:9-12), but water creatures without those characteristics (catfish, lobsters, crabs, shrimp, mussels, clams, oysters, squid, octopi, etc.) should not be eaten.
God also lists birds and other flying creatures that are unclean for consumption (Leviticus 11:13-19). He identifies carrion eaters and birds of prey as unclean, plus ostriches, storks, herons and bats.
Although God did not reveal the specific reasons some animals may be eaten and others must be avoided, we can make generalized conclusions based on the animals included in the two categories.
In listing the animals that should not be eaten, God forbids the consumption of scavengers and carrion eaters, which devour other animals for their food.
Animals such as pigs, bears, vultures and raptors can eat (and thrive) on decaying flesh. Predatory animals such as wolves, lions, leopards and cheetahs most often prey on the weakest (and at times the diseased) in animal herds.
When it comes to sea creatures, bottom dwellers such as lobsters and crabs scavenge for dead animals on the seafloor. Shellfish such as oysters, clams and mussels similarly consume decaying organic matter that sinks to the sea floor, including sewage.
Eat Deer Skin:
Deer meat is not USDA regulated, inspected or certified. Scientists at the University of Kentucky released a report in January 2006 about finding infectious prions in deer meat. It had been thought to be only in nervous-system tissue. The infected prions are what cause Chronic Wasting Disease, (CWD) a fatal form of brain degeneration. Like mad cow disease, and the human form of the disease known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob, they are all caused by aberrant prion proteins. Cooking the meat does not eliminate the risk of contracting CWD. Deer can spread chronic wasting disease through saliva and blood, which means no part of an infected animal can be considered safe to eat.
Other diseases in deer which makes eating their flesh potentially unsafe include: Bovine Tuberculosis and Hemorrhagic disease. In some states, metal cadmium has been found in organs of deer, which is considered a heavy metal and poisonous. Not to mention numerous parasites and organisms live in deer.
Eat Pig Skin:
According to the Bible, it is forbidden to eat pigs:
“You shall not eat any abomination. These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep. Every animal that parts the hoof and has the hoof cloven in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. Yet of those that chew the cud or have the hoof cloven you shall not eat these: the camel, the hare, and the rock badger, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, are unclean for you. And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch" (Deuteronomy 14:3-8).
One reason for God's rule forbidding pork is because of the digestive system of a pig. It is similar to ours, in that the stomach is very acidic. Pigs are gluttonous, never knowing when to stop eating. Their stomach acids become diluted because of the volume of food, allowing all kinds of vermin to pass through this protective barrier. Parasites, bacteria, viruses and toxins can pass into the pig's flesh because of over-eating. These toxins and infectious agents can be passed on to humans when they eat a pig's flesh.
Ebola Corpse:
Ebola virus is extremely contagious. When Ebola invades a human being, it incubates for a period of seven to ten days on average, then explodes with catastrophic force. Infected cells begin producing massive amounts of cytokine, tiny protein molecules that are extensively used in intercellular communication. This overproduction of cytokine wreaks havoc on the immune system and disrupts the normal behavior of the liver, kidneys, respiratory system, skin and blood. In extreme cases, small clots form everywhere, a process known as disseminated intravascular coagulation, followed by hemorrhaging. Blood fills the intestines, the digestive tract and the bladder, spilling out of the nose, eyes and mouth. Death occurs within a week. The virus spreads through infected blood and other bodily fluids; the corpse of an Ebola victim remains “hot” for days, and direct contact with a dead body is one of the main paths of transmission.

Eden is Heaven:
The garden of Eden was originally intended to be the eternal dwelling place of man. When man sinned against God, Man was cast out of the garden. Heaven by contrast is the destination place of the faithful. It is not physical but spiritual, being in the very presence of God. Eden is NOT heaven or similar to heaven.
Edgar Allan Poe:
Edgar Allan Poe was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre. Edgar Allan Poe made evil a central theme in his writings. Poe's best known fiction works are Gothic. His most recurring themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the effects of decomposition, concerns of premature burial, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning.
Egypt, Africa:
Egypt is a transcontinental country spanning the northeast corner of Africa and southwest corner of Asia via a land bridge formed by the Sinai Peninsula.
Its monuments, such as the Giza pyramid complex and its Great Sphinx, were constructed by its ancient civilization, which was one of the most advanced of its time. Its ancient ruins, such as those of Memphis, Thebes, Karnak, and the Valley of the Kings outside Luxor, are a significant focus of archaeological study and popular interest.
Egypt's Ra:
Ra was the ancient Egyptian solar deity. By the Fifth Dynasty (2494 to 2345 BC) he had become a major god in ancient Egyptian religion, identified primarily with the midday sun.
E-identity:
E-identity (e-passport) is the same as a regular passport with the addition of a small contactless integrated circuit (computer chip) embedded in the back cover. The chip securely stores the same data visually displayed on the photo page of the passport, and additionally includes a digital photograph. The inclusion of the digital photograph enables biometric comparison, through the use of facial recognition technology, at international borders.
Ejaculation:
Ejaculation means to blurt out, utter impulsively or to exclaim suddenly. In Egyptian mythology, Hu (also spelt Huh) is the deification of the first word, the word of creation, that Atum was said to have exclaimed upon ejaculating, in his masturbatory act of creating the Ennead.
Electric Field:
Electric field is defined as the electric force per unit charge. The concept of electric field was introduced by Michael Faraday. The electrical field force acts between two charges, in the same way that the gravitational field force acts between two masses.
The Earth's magnetic field is generated by a core of molten iron that surrounds the inner core of solid iron, each rotating at different rates. Charged particles moving around the electric field create a magnetic field. The magnetic field of the Earth can be compared with a dynamo. The dynamo of a bicycle creates a magnetic field, and therefore electricity. As long as you keep cycling, the inner magnets keep turning around and electric power is generated. The earth has a somewhat similar, though more complicated, principle that scientists refer to as a "hydromagnetic dynamo." Just like the bicycle dynamo, the magnetic field is generated in the earth’s core, because the liquid upper layer rotates with a different speed in relation to the earth’s core. There, the mechanical energy is transformed into magnetic energy, resulting in a North Pole and a South Pole.
If you change the poles of a dynamo, its direction of rotation would change. Expanding this principle, the earth also has to change its direction when the North Pole becomes the South Pole. See A Pole Shift
Electrons:
In 2007, Los Alamos scientists demonstrated conclusively how electromagnetic waves accelerate ordinary electrons in the belts of radiation outside Earth's atmosphere to a state where they become "killer electrons," particles that are hazardous to satellites, spacecraft, and astronauts.
Scientists have long pondered where the killer particles come from and how they accumulate in the radiation belts.
Some theories suggest that they originate in the sun, which produces similar particles, or are the remnants of cosmic rays from outside our solar system.
But the team at New Mexico's Los Alamos National Laboratory may have solved the mystery, and their findings suggest the particles actually form much closer to home.
Using satellite detectors to probe the outer radiation belt, the team found that killer electrons occur extremely unevenly.
Such localized peaks in intensity, the researcher say, could only be caused by electromagnetic waves accelerating electrons to "killer" status within the radiation belt.
The increase in electrons could also be due to nuclear testing in space, which has caused an artificial "pumping" of the Van Allen belt. Weapon debris carries a significant percentage of the energy of the detonation and this radioactive material releases enormous numbers of high energy electrons through beta decay. This phenomenon creates an artificial "trapped electron" radiation belt. The size and intensity of the belt is highly dependent on the yield, altitude, and latitude of the detonation. The energies of the weapon-induced trapped electrons are significantly higher than those of the natural environment. For example, a 50 kiloton (KT) weapon detonated at a 120 km altitude (75 miles) can produce electron densities several orders of magnitude higher than the natural electron environment in low earth orbit. These bomb-induced, elevated electron densities can last for months to years and significantly increase the total ionizing dose accumulated by space assets that transit these belts.
In 2008, scientists discovered an unidentified source of high-energy cosmic rays bombarding Earth from space. There is an unexpected surplus of cosmic ray electrons at very high energy - 300-800 billion electron volts coming from space. Cosmic Rays are mostly pieces of atoms. Normally almost 90% of all the incoming cosmic ray particles are protons because the surrounding electrons have been stripped during their high-speed (almost the speed of light) passage through the Galaxy.
According to John Wefel of Louisiana State University and Principal Investigator for ATIC, Advanced Thin Ionization Calorimeter, a NASA funded balloon-borne instrument high over Antarctica: "This electron excess cannot be explained by the standard model of cosmic ray origin. There must be another source relatively near us that is producing these additional particles."
Elect's of God:
"Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not" (Matt.24:23-26).
Matthew 24: 23-26 reveal two major points about false Messiahs. First, the false Messiah will not be visible and out in the open. Second, the false Messiah will do miracles in order to mislead and deceive many. It is important to avoid deception during the latter half of the tribulation because this is the time in which the antichrist, also known as the beast in Revelation, begins his global rule and requires all to take the mark of the beast in order to by or sell (Revelation 13:17). This is such an important time in history that God sends angelic messengers to specifically preach the gospel to the entire world and warn them of the consequences of accepting the mark of the beast (Revelation 14:6-13).
Embalms Body:
Egypt is credited with being the land where embalming began. During the period from 6000 BC to 600 AD approximately 400,000,000 bodies were mummified.
Embalming in Egypt was done for two reasons:
Religious
Greek historian Herodotus maintained that the Egyptians were the first people to believe in the immortality of the soul. They believed that the soul would never fully forsake the body as long as the body remained intact.
Embalming was for the purpose of preserving the body so that the soul could return to it after the completion of the "circle of necessity." This "circle of necessity" was a 3,000 year journey the soul was required to make before it could return to the body. At that time, the whole man would arise from the dead and live with the gods forever.
Sanitation
The writer Cassius maintained that embalming was developed to provide a solution to the problem of trying to bury the dead in the Nile valley which would be inundated on a frequent basis. The Egyptians apparently also noted that this unsanitary condition caused more deaths.
Embedded Text:
Embedded text is text which is incorporated into a digital image, and which is not represented by “text data” (e.g. not encoded text), but is represented as digital images of text, such as bit maps which appear to be text to a user.
Embedded-text often carries important messages regarding the where, what, and who of the content. This information clearly helps with the recognition and annotation of the content. Embedded-text within images and videos can be categorized as natural scene text and artificial text. Natural scene text refers to text that appears as part of the scene in images or videos; for example, a news video showing an event that happened in a recognizable location. Artificial text, on the other hand, is manually added to provide content to viewers. One example of artificial text is the closed caption of a video; another is the text banner box on a web image.
Spammers use embedded-text in images to avoid text-based anti-spam filters. Spam is the use of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately. While the most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam. E-mail spam is sent via "zombie networks", networks of virus- or worm-infected personal computers in homes and offices around the globe; many modern worms install a backdoor which allows the spammer access to the computer and use it for malicious purposes.
EM Weapons:
EM weapons (electromagnetic weapons or psychotropic weapons) are a type of directed energy weapons which use electromagnetic radiation to deliver heat, mechanical, or electrical energy to a target to cause pain or permanent damage. They can be used against humans, electronic equipment, and military targets generally, depending on the technology.
Some common bio-effects of electromagnetic or other non-lethal weapons include effects to the human central nervous system resulting in physical pain, difficulty breathing, vertigo, nausea, disorientation, or other systemic discomfort, as weapons not directly considered lethal can indeed cause cumulative damage to the human body.
Project Pandora, conducted by the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, WRAIR, included externally induced auditory input from pulsed microwave audiograms of words or oral sounds which create the effect of hearing voices that are not a part of the recipients own thought processes. Microwave pulses can also affect the epidermis (skin) and dermis, the thick sensitive layer of skin and connective tissue beneath the epidermis that contains blood, lymph vessels, sweat glands, and nerve endings, generating a burn from as far as 700 yards.
Encoded Maths:
Cryptography (or cryptology; from Greek "hidden, secret") is the practice and study of hiding information. Modern cryptography intersects the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and engineering. Applications of cryptography include ATM cards, computer passwords, and electronic commerce.
Enemy of Man:
Is any adversary or any hostility shown towards a person.
Energy Rod: See Nuclear Rod
Eris Aliens:
Aliens originating from the planet Eris. Eris is known as Nibiru by the UFO community. Nibiru, in Babylonian Astronomy translates to "Planet of Crossing" or "Point of Transition". The alien inhabitants of Nibiru are the Anunnaki. See Anunnaki
Eris Battle:
In Greek mythology, Eris is the goddess of warfare and strife. She stirs up jealousy and envy to cause fighting and anger among men. At the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, the parents of the Greek hero Achilles, all the gods with the exception of Eris were invited, and, enraged at her exclusion, she spitefully caused a quarrel among the goddesses that led to the Trojan war. In the astronomical world, the planet Eris stirred up a great deal of trouble among the international astronomical community when the question of its proper designation led to a raucous meeting of the IAU in Prague. At the end of the conference, IAU members voted to demote Pluto and Eris to dwarf-planet status. Eris was discovered by astronomers in 2005. Authors like Zecharia Sitchin published books about the planets existence long before it was discovered by astronomers. These claims were for the most part dismissed as fringe science or pseudoscience by the mainstream scientific communities of archaeology and astronomy.
Eris battle may also refer to a possible war between Earth and Eris. Eris aliens may be planning to invade planet Earth sometime in the future.
Eroticism:
Eroticism is the quality of sexual excitement. In other words, if something is sexually exciting, then it is said to be erotic. Some things are designed and made especially to make people feel erotic. Things that are designed to make people feel erotic are called "erotica" are works of art, including literature, photography, film, sculpture and painting, that deal substantively with erotically stimulating or sexually arousing descriptions.
Escape Plagues:
"And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts" (Rev. 19-21).
This group is composed of those who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. The Seal of God and the Mark of the Beast are vital issues in these last days.
ET Works:
ET (Emerging Technology) works represent contemporary advances and innovation around the 21st century in various fields of technology. Various converging technologies have emerged in the technological convergence of different systems which evolving towards performing similar tasks.
Many writers, including computer scientist Bill Joy, have identified clusters of technologies that they consider critical to man's future. Joy warns that the technology could be used by elites for good or evil. They could use it as "good shepherds" for the rest of man, or decide everyone else is superfluous and push for mass extinction those made unnecessary by technology.
E-trademark:
An E-trademark is a distinctive sign or indicator used by an individual, business organization, or other legal entity to identify that the products or services online to consumers with which the trademark appears originate from a unique source, and to distinguish its products or services from those of other entities.
Evil Backward:
Burton Wolfe, a priest in the Church of Satan, claims in his book "Introduction to The Satanic Bible" that according to Anton Lavey (founded the Church of Satan in 1966), "evil" is "live" spelled backward and should be indulged in.
Evil Eleven:
According to Aleister Crowley´s, The Book of the Law: Liber al vel legis, "My number is 11, as all their numbers who are of us. The Five Pointed Star, with a Circle in the Middle, and the circle is Red. My colour is black to the blind, but the blue and gold are seen of the seeing. Also I have asecret glory for them that love me" (chapter 1:60). Crowley was also a magick (with a "k") practitioner. The Anglo-Saxon k in Magick is a means of indicating the kind of magic which Crowley performed. K is the eleventh letter of several alphabets, and eleven is the principal number of magick, because it is the number attributed to the Qliphoth - the underworld of chaotic forces that have to be mentally conquered before magick can be performed.
The Pagan assigns numbers to objects, planets, or an idea. One of history's greatest Satanist's, W. Wynn Wescott who was extremely influential in the latter part of the 19th Century explains: "... so 11 is the essence of all that is sinful, harmful, and imperfect."
The number 11 generally has negative connotations. Number 11 is called an evil number; it is an omen of Defeat or Death
The first Great War, World War 1, ended on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month. To this day, victims and veterans are remembered at that specific time.
May 8, 1945, World War II Allies formally accepted the unconditional surrender of the armed forces of Nazi Germany and the end of Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. When fighting in Europe ended, approximately eleven million German soldiers were held as prisoners of war, many of them by the Soviet Union.
The number eleven is also related to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. For instance: The State of New York was the 11th State added to the Union. The first plane to hit the towers was American Airlines Flight 11. Flight AA11 had 11 crew members - 2 pilots and 9 flight attendants. The WTC Twin Towers standing side by side, look like the number 11. The 1st Fire Unit to arrive to the WTC towers was FDNY Unit 1. Unit 1 lost 11 firemen.
Evil Gatlin:
Children of the Corn was released in 1984. Based on the short story by Stephen King, the film tells the story of the town of Gatlin, Nebraska. A demonic god, referred to as “He Who Walks Behind the Rows”, has commanded that the children of Gatlin kill their parents and all adults to ensure that the cornfields will prosper.
As the years go by, the children continue to sacrifice those who age into adulthood, and any interlopers that happen to stumble into town.

Evil Saint:
Outside of United States, Saint Nicholas (also known as Santa Claus in the United States) has a much darker side. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, St. Nicholas visits children accompanied by a devil. But an angel is usually there to protect the children, too. In the Netherlands, a white-bearded Sinterklaas visits children accompanied by "Black Peter," who may carry off disobedient children. See Santa Claus
Evil Stare:
Evil stare or evil eye is a look that is believed by many cultures to be able to cause injury or bad luck on the person at whom it is directed for reasons of envy or dislike.
Evil Talks:
"Brothers, do not speak evil of one another" (James 4:11). "Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you" (Eph.4:31).
Evil talks or evil speaking is to speak that which is injurious; therefore one should say nothing that would injure any man. If you speak mean, angry, hurtful words, you are most likely a mean, angry, hurtful person. If we would remove negative words—gossip, slander and divisiveness—from our conversation, it would automatically improve our lives and the lives of those around us. According to the Bible: "For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile" (1Peter 3:10). The primary use of the tongue should be to praise God. "My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD" (Ps.145:21).
Excessive:
Excessive can be defined as exceeding the usual bounds of something; extravagant; immoderate; unrestrained.
The Bible states: "And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things" (1Cor.9:25). Temperate can be defined as someone who exhibits self-restraint. This is synonymous with moderation. Moderation is the opposite of excess, and the Bible clearly teaches that we should be known for our moderation. Proverbs tells us that if we do not live in moderation, i.e. if we are drunkards and gluttons, the hallmarks of excess, we will come to poverty.
Being temperate means to be under self control, or to have rule over your own spirit. It is strongly implied that if we can control ourselves, we would not fall into excess and thus be moderate. As a matter of fact, self control or temperance is a sign that we have the Holy Spirit within us.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law" (Gal.5:22-23).
Executor:
An executor is entrusted with responsibility for handling a deceased person's earthly affairs. Essentially, an executor is charged with protecting a deceased person's property until all debts and taxes have been paid, and seeing that what's left is transferred to the people who are entitled to it. The Bible states: "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matt.6:19-21). The word, “treasures”, is very broad and all-inclusive, meaning wealth, costly things such as property, lands, gold and precious stones; possession including money. Jesus says there are treasures in heaven! There are commodities far more precious than automobiles, houses and electronic devices of communication. Laying up treasures for ourselves on earth is an evidence that our hope, faith and trust are in our wealth and riches. We must provide for the present and future needs of our family (2 Corinthians 12:14; 1 Timothy 5:8) but we must not put our hope or trust in riches (Job 31:24-28; Mark 10:24,25).
Jesus also warns that our inheritance on earth can be stolen. The story of the two brothers, Jacob and Esau, is a classic example of our inheritance can be stolen from us by deceptive means. In ancient times, the birthright was a very important and sacred thing. It belonged to the firstborn. The family name and titles were to pass along to the eldest son. He would also receive a chief portion of the inheritance. But it was more than just a title to the physical assets of a family. It was also a spiritual position, and in the case of the people of God, God would lead the family through patriarchs, or fathers (Hebrews 1:1-2). Additionally, in the special case of Esau and Jacob, that meant the one to whom belonged the birthright was the one through who the covenant promise made to their grandfather, Abraham, would be realized. Ultimately, the Messiah would come through the holder of the birthright and bless the nations of the earth. Esau was the firstborn, and the birthright was his. But like many, he failed to appreciate its value and sacredness.
"...When Jacob had cooked stew, Esau came in from the field and he was famished; and Esau said to Jacob, 'Please let me have a swallow of that red stuff there, for I am famished.' Therefore his name was called Edom. But Jacob said, 'First sell me your birthright.' Esau said, 'Behold, I am about to die; so of what use then is the birthright to me?' And Jacob said, 'First swear to me"; so he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and rose and went on his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright." (Gen.25:29-34).
For a pot of stew, poor, hungry Esau sold his birthright. Such crass behavior would be a little like selling your wedding ring for a hamburger cause you had not eaten all day, only worse. It tells of Esau's attitude toward the things of God; His purpose and His will. It shows a lack of reverence and respect. It shows the same thing we see in too many people today when it comes to how little they regard the Lord.
Explaining:
To offer reasons for or a cause of; justify: explain an error. This is a reference about making excuses for things. In explaining something a person attempts to maximize or minimize an issue by weighing an action against a desired result. In Luke 14, Jesus told a wonderful parable about excuse-making. He says that someone gave a great dinner and invited many guests, but they all began to make excuses. "The first said unto him, ' I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.' Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.' Another said, 'I have married a wife and therefore I cannot come.' Then the master of the house being angry said to the servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. And the servant said to the Lord, it is done as thou has commanded, and yet there is room. And the Lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled."
People lives are so full that most can’t seem to find time for God. Everyday people come up with explanations for why they can’t read the bible, why they can’t pray, why they can’t go to church. But God takes "no explanations."
Extra Large:
A garment size for a very large person. If you’re carrying many extra pounds, you face a higher-than-average risk of a whopping 50 different health problems. These health conditions include the nation’s leading causes of death—heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain cancers—as well as less common ailments such as gout and gallstones.
Eye of Satan:
The eye of Satan, eye of Lucifer or the evil eye is a widespread belief that unlucky events can ensue if you attract the attention of particular people. These people, sometimes involuntarily, sometimes voluntarily, can cast a malignant spell on others simply by looking at them. The effects on victims vary; some have them afflicted with bad luck of various sorts. Others believe the evil eye has even more baleful powers, that it can cause disease, wasting away, and even death. The evil eye is the favorite symbol of Satanists. To them it simply represents the eye of Satan seeing all and is usually atop a pyramid (the eye of Horus):
“Called the 'mal ochio' (evil eye), this object is regarded by all Satanists as the symbol of Lucifer.”--- William J. Schnoebelen, James R. Spencer Whited Sepulchers, p. 20
'In Egyptian Mythology, Horus IS Lucifer'. ---Former Satanist, William Schnoebelen, Masonry: Beyond The Light, p. 197
'The All-Seeing Eye was representative of the omniscience of Horus, the Sun God'.---Magic Symbols, by Frederick Goodman, p. 103, Satanic symbols book
This "eye" is called the "third eye" of clairvoyance in the Hindu religion, the eye of Osiris, the eye of Horus or the eye of the sun god Ra in Egypt, and the All-Seeing Eye in Freemasonry. Also referred to as the eye of Providence, “the eye never slumbers nor sleeps".

Faery Light:
Christmas lights are generally known as faery lights. Faeries are normally described as human in appearance and having magical powers. Their origins are less clear in the folklore, being variously dead, or some form of demon, or a species completely independent of humans or angels.
Falling Away:
Falling away is a revolt or rebellion against God. According to the Bible:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition" (2 Thes. 2:3).
According to Paul a tragic “falling away” from Jesus Christ and Bible Scripture would eventually occur within Christianity and that “the man of sin” would arise (2 Thes. 2:3). This “man of sin” is the same power as the “little horn” with “eyes like the eyes of a man” (Dan. 7:8), and “the beast” (Rev. 13). Even in his own day, Paul saw errors creeping into the Church, and declared: “the mystery of iniquity doth already work.” (2 Thes. 2:7). Paul warned that after his death, from among “the elders of the church,” men would “arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” (Acts 20:17, 30). This apostasy would result in a departure from God’s Word and the original faith as taught by Jesus Christ (1 Tim. 4:1). Other New Testament writers warned that deceptions were entering the Church. (2 Peter 2:1; 1 John 2:18-19; Jude 1:3-4). See A Perdition
Fallen Church:
A church that has departed from Biblical Scripture and the Gospel. See Laodicea Church
False God Azna:
In the Bible, God warns us not to worship false gods. "You shall have no other gods before me" (Ex.20:3). A false god is anything that a person worships and honors instead of the true Lord God.
Sylvia Browne has formed her own church Novus Spiritus. In her book, "Mother God", reveals that "Azna" is the sacred name the Divine feminine is known by on the other side. Azna does not exist. There is no record of Azna worship anywhere in history. Azna is a figment of Sylvia Browne's imagination. Sylvia Browne is not a prophet. She is simply profiting off of gullible people. Don't buy into it.
False Healers:
False healers claim to perform miracles. All who claim the power to heal are instructed in Luke 4:23 "Physician, heal thyself." Many alleged cures by false healers have involved fraud, as with Marjoe Gortner and Peter Popoff. Popoff pretended to get messages from God when he was really getting messages from his wife via an earpiece. Mrs. Popoff got her information from cards that the believers fill out when they attend the faith-healing exhibition.
Many people seek out these people because all other means of a cure have failed. They look at a miracle as their last chance to get their health back. False healers understand this human weakness and they use it to get what they want, money. There have always been false healers who prey on the suffering and the desperate in order to accumulate wealth.
False Language:
Speaking in tongues is the fluid vocalizing (or, less commonly, the writing) of speech-like syllables, often as part of religious practice. Though some consider these utterances to be meaningless, those that use them consider them to be part of a holy language. The true gift of speaking in tongues is a normal language, spoken somewhere on earth, but not learned by the linguistic processes by which we ordinarily learn languages; yet it is clearly understandable by anyone who would happen to speak that language. It is not some unknown tongue in the sense that it is different from any language spoken on earth. It is spoken somewhere on earth, if it is the true gift of tongues. This rules out all gibberish, stammering, stuttering, or repetitious sounds. See A Babbling Church
May also refer to FALSE: an esoteric programming language designed by Wouter van Oortmerssen in 1993, named after his favorite Boolean value. It is a small Forth-like stack-oriented language, with syntax designed to make the code inherently obfuscated, confusing, and unreadable.
False Market:
A market where prices are manipulated and impacted by erroneous information, preventing the efficient negotiation of prices. These types of markets will often be marred by volatile swings because the true value of the market is clouded by the misinformation.
False Signs: See 'See the Sign'
Family Dogs:
Family dogs are domesticated animals. All domesticated animals were once wild animals. Domesticated animals are those that have been bred in captivity for a number of generations. Domestication creates unnatural ways for the animals to live and feed.
The lives of family dogs are restricted to human homes where they must obey commands and can only eat, drink, and even urinate when humans allow them to. Although one could say the same thing about human children, the overwhelming number of human children mature to become autonomous, independent beings.
Many family dogs are also kept in crates, which is just a euphemism for a cage. These confined spaces can be very stressful for a dog because it prevents the dog from exhibiting natural behavior.
Many family dogs also lack insufficient companionship. Dogs are pack animals, meaning they have an instinct to live among a group. Dogs need to be able to interact with other dogs of their own breed.
Historically, the Scriptures have been used to justify keeping pets. According to the book of Genesis, God created animals, including human beings, on the sixth day. In Genesis 1:28, God says: "Have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth." Immediately after, in Genesis 1:29, God states: "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food." Having dominion does not mean that we have a right to keep dogs in captivity as pets.
Human homes can also provide many dangers for a dog. For instance, a veterinarian found 62 hair bands and 8 boxer shorts inside a dogs stomach.
Fascination:
The act of fascinating, bewitching, or enchanting; enchantment; witchcraft; the exercise of a powerful or irresistible influence on the affections or passions; unseen, inexplicable influence.
Fatima Miracle:
Fatima was the moon goddess in pre-Islamic Arabia. Her name means The Creatress. She was also known as Source Of The Sun, Tree Of Paradise, the Moon, and Fate. She existed from the beginning of the material world.
On October 13, 1917, at Fatima, Portugal, before an estimated 70,000 people, the first major recorded sun miracle happened. An apparition appeared before three young children (Jacinta, Francisco, and Lucia), who described a lovely lady "more brilliant than the sun." The lady spoke and told them:
"I am the Lady of the Rosary, I have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and ask for pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. Let them continue saying it everyday.”
As the Lady was about to leave she pointed to the sun. The rain had stopped and the clouds parted and the sun began to whirl in the sky, scattering rays of multicolored light lighting up the entire countryside. The sun whirled for three minutes, stopped and, then, resumed again a second and third time lasting a total of twelve minutes. The sun spun faster each time and at the end seemed to tear itself from the sky and began plunging to earth.

Fear of Allah god:
The Arabic word for the “fear of Allah” is taqwâ . It comes from the root word meaning “to protect from something, to prevent”. A person shows their fear of Allah by carrying out what Allah has commanded of him and abstaining from what Allah has prohibited him.
Allah says:
“And We had enjoined upon those who were given the Scripture before – as well as yourselves – to fear Allah.” [ Sûrah al-Nisâ' : 131]
“O you who believe! Fear Allah as He ought to be feared and do not die except as believers.” [ Sûrah Âl `Imrân : 102]
“Indeed, Allah is with those who fear Him and those who do good.” [ Sûrah al-Nahl : 128]
“And My mercy encompasses all things, and I shall decree it for those who fear Me.” [ Sûrah al-A`râf : 156]
“He is worthy of being feared and worthy of granting forgiveness.” [ Sûrah al-Muddaththir : 56]
“And whoever fears Allah – He will pardon him his sins and grant him a great reward.” [ Sûrah al-Talâq : 5]
“Indeed, those who fear Allah will be among gardens and rivers, in a seat of truth near an All-Powerful Sovereign.” [ Sûrah al-Qamar : 54-55]
According to Muslims, the fear of Allah is the path to forgiveness, salvation, and the attainment of Allah's mercy.
Allah is not the loving God that we find in Christianity. In many places in the Qur'an we find Allah's love is conditional. Muslims have to do something to earn the love of Allah, he does not love unless that love is earned. The Qur'an tells the readers that they should fear Allah. Not only do they fear their God but they are deathly afraid of being eternally damned by an angry Allah. Allah does not give much assurance of salvation. The only Muslims guaranteed a place in Heaven is those who die in a Jihad or those who die while on a pilgrimage to Mecca. They hope they will be allowed into Heaven, but there is no certainty. This is why Islam is the apex of a "works" religion. They must do all that the Qur'an tells them to do if they are going to have any chance of getting into Heaven.
Christians should not fear Allah. Christians should fear God. Allah is not God. For the unbeliever, the fear of God is the fear of the judgment of God and eternal death, which is eternal separation from God (Luke 12:5; Hebrews 10:31). For the believer, the fear of God is something much different. Proverbs 1:7 declares, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge.” A biblical fear of God, for the believer, includes understanding how much God hates sin and fearing His judgment on sin—even in the life of a believer. Hebrews 12:5-11 describes God’s discipline of the believer. While it is done in love (Hebrews 12:6), it is still a fearful thing. As children, the fear of discipline from our parents no doubt prevented some evil actions. The same should be true in our relationship with God. We should fear His discipline, and therefore seek to live our lives in such a way that pleases Him.
Believers are not to be scared of God. We have no reason to be scared of God. We have God's promise that nothing can separate us from His love (Romans 8:38-39). We have His promise that He will never leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Fearing God means having such a reverence for Him that it has a great impact on the way we live our lives. The fear of God is respecting Him, obeying Him, submitting to His discipline, and worshiping Him.
Federal Grant:
In the United States Federal grants are economic aid issued by the United States government. Federal grant funds are awarded for a specific “public purpose” and grantees must use those funds as agreed and within certain parameters including the Office of Management and Budget Circulars and granting agency guidelines. Unfortunately, fraud, waste and misuse of these funds can and does occur. These issues can range from poorly managed programs to the extremes of intentional criminal fraud schemes. The consequences of grant fraud can include debarment from receiving future funding, administrative recoveries of funds, civil law suits and criminal prosecution– or a combination of all or some of these remedies.
Federal List:
More than 12 years after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, federal agencies continue to keep lists on hand containing names of individuals of interest: people who often end up un-cleared to enter or exit the US due to an array of activity that could be considered suspicious or terrorist-related to government officials.
Americans and foreign nationals who end up on the government’s radar are offered little chance to find out how they ended there, or even file an appeal.
According to a recently issued General Accounting Office report, the government maintains more than a dozen watch lists, including:
Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control -- Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list
Department of State -- Terrorist Exclusion List
Transportation Security Administration -- No Fly list and Selectee list
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security - Denied Persons List and the Entities List
FBI -- Most Wanted List and Watch List
Department of State, Office of Defense Trade Controls -- Debarred Parties List
Each list is developed according to different criteria, with information from various sources, foreign and domestic, and each provides varying degrees of information. For example, some entries include not only names but also dates of births, associations, birthplaces, and aliases. Others include only a name or even just a first initial and last name. Furthermore, while some lists are available to the public (the SDN list), others are not, such as the No Fly list.
Federal Reserve:
The Federal Reserve System (also known as the Federal Reserve, and informally as the Fed) is the central banking system of the United States. It is considered to be an independent central bank. It is independent since its decisions do not have to be ratified by the President or Congress. However, Conress still maintains oversight authority. Under the Humphrey-Hawkins Act of 1978, the Federal Reserve must submit a report on the economy to Congress by February 20 and July 20 of each year.
The Federal Reserve was created by Congress in 1913 by the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act, largely as a response to a series of financial panics or bank runs, particularly a severe panic in 1907. In 1910, before the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, the federal debt was only $1 billion, or $12.40 per citizen. State and local debts were practically non-existent. By 1920, after only 6 years of Federal Reserve, the federal debt had jumped to $24 billion, or $228 per person. In 1960, the federal debt reached $284 billion, or 1,575 per citizen. By 1981, the federal debt passed $1 trillion, and was growing exponentially. State and local debts were more than the federal, and with business and personal debts, the total was over $6 trillion. In 1992, the federal debt alone was over $4 trillion. Now in 1996, the federal debt has reached the $5 trillion and it is continuing to grow wildly out of control.
Over time, the roles and responsibilities of the Federal Reserve System have expanded and its structure has evolved. Its duties today, according to official Federal Reserve documentation, fall into four general areas:
1. Conducting the nation's monetary policy
2. Supervising and regulating banking institutions
3. Maintaining the stability of the financial system and containing systemic risk that may arise in financial markets.
4. Providing financial services to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign official institutions.
Federal Reserve System is not "owned" by anyone and is not a private, profit-making institution. Instead, it is an independent entity within the government, having both public purposes and private aspects.
Female Archangel:
Every reference to angels in Scripture refers to them in the masculine gender. The Greek word for “angel” in the New Testament, angelos, is in the masculine form. In fact, the feminine form of angelos does not exist. In the many appearances of angels in the Bible, never is an angel referred to as “she”. The only named angels in the Bible—Michael, Gabriel, Lucifer—had male names and all were referred to in the masculine. There are no female archangels.
Female Husband:
The Nadi people of Kenya practice female-female marriages. The female-female marriages are a socially approved way for a woman to take over the social and economic roles of a husband and father.
The female husband is to provide marriage payments to obtain her wife. She must renounce her female duties such as housework and take on the obligations of a husband. No sexual relations are permitted between the female husband and her new wife. The female husband will arrange a male consort for the new wife so she will be able to bear children. Those children consider the female husband to be their father, not the biological father, because she is the socially designated father. If the child is asked who their father is the child will name the female husband.
May also refer to any woman who marries another woman and takes that woman to be her husband.
Ferocious:
Marked by extreme and violent energy.
Fiat Papers:
Fiat papers or fiat money is money that has value only because of government regulation or law. The term derives from the Latin fiat, meaning "let it be done", as such money is established by government decree.
Paper is only worth what it costs to create the "paper." Instead, the government declares that this essentially worthless paper is legal tender by government decree. Almost all paper currencies worldwide are "fiat" money. Their paper is not backed by gold or silver.
In a fiat monetary system, there is no restrain on the amount of money that can be created. This allows unlimited credit creation. Initially, a rapid growth in the availability of credit is often mistaken for economic growth, as spending and business profits grow and frequently there is a rapid growth in equity prices. In the long run, however, the economy tends to suffer much more by the following contraction than it gained from the expansion in credit.
In most cases, a fiat monetary system comes into existence as a result of excessive public debt. When the government is unable to repay all its debt in gold or silver, the temptation to remove physical backing rather than to default becomes irresistible. This was the case in 70's when US President Nixon ended the international gold standard and for the first time no currency in the world had a gold backing.
History should have taught us that fiat money systems do not work, and ultimately contribute to the downfall of those currencies and the countries that implement them. The problem with a fiat currency is that despite acts of government to impart value to its currency, it does not have any real value and governments who implement a fiat system, often do so with the intention of ‘printing’ more money (something we now know as ‘quantitative easing’). When the government makes too much of this money it causes inflation. Quantitative easing may cause higher inflation than desired if the amount of easing required is overestimated, and too much money is created.
Many inflation experts and currency analysts believe a US dollar crash may be imminent due to this endless “printing” of money by the Federal Reserve Bank. See Dollar Crash, Federal Reserve, and Bank Collapse
Fiendishly:
Diabolically; as a devil; in an evil manner; extremely wicked or cruel
Fine Print:
Fine print, small print, or "mouse print" is less noticeable print smaller than the more obvious larger print it accompanies that advertises or otherwise describes or partially describes a commercial product or service. The larger print that is used in conjunction with fine print by the merchant often has the effect of deceiving the consumer into believing the offer is more advantageous than it really is, via a legal technicality which requires full disclosure of all (even unfavorable) terms or conditions, but does not specify the manner (size, typeface, coloring, etc.) of disclosure. There is also strong evidence to suggest that the fine print is not read by the majority of consumers.
Fine print may say the opposite of what the larger print says. For example, if the larger print says "pre-approved" the fine print will say "subject to approval."
Firefighter:
"John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire" (Luke 3:16).
Because God is a consuming fire (Heb. 12:29) there is no escaping his fire. No one will be able to escape from it by extinguishing it. Isaiah says of that fire, "Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor a fire to sit before it" (Isaiah 47:14). After it has accomplished its work of destruction, that fire will go out. No one can deliver themselves from its flame by putting it out, but finally not a coal will be left. The fire of the Lord is unquenchable or fire that cannot be quenched. To quench means to extinguish or put out. No one will be able to put out the fire of hell. See Will Burn
Fire Goddess: See Goddess Pele
Fire is Anger:
In Deuteronomy 4:24, God's anger becomes so hot that He describes Himself as being a consuming fire.
The Bible does frequently use the image of eternal fire in order to represent God's anger with sin, which will result in the total destruction of the sinner in the grave. Sodom was punished with "eternal fire" (Jude v. 7), i.e. it was totally destroyed due to the wickedness of the inhabitants. Likewise Jerusalem was threatened with the eternal fire of God's anger, due to the sins of Israel: "Then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched" (Jer. 17:27).
Similarly, God punished the land of Idumea with fire that would "not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste...the owl and the raven shall dwell in it...thorns shall come up in her palaces" (Is. 34:9-15).
Time and again God's anger with the sins of Jerusalem and Israel is likened to fire: "Mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place (Jerusalem)...it shall burn, and shall not be quenched" (Jer. 7:20; other examples include Lam. 4:11 and 2 Kings 22:17).
Fire is also associated with God's judgment of sin, especially at the return of Christ: "For, behold, the day cometh that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up" (Mal. 4:1).
Fire Sacrifice:
Yagna is the worship of fire by Hindus. It is commonly translated as Fire Sacrifice.
Fire has been an object of worship in many ancient cultures across the globe. The Zoroastrians (Parsis) who originated in ancient Iran are called Fire Worshippers till today. The Hindus also worship the fire in all their religious rituals.

Fishing Net:
More than 100 million tons of fish are caught in fishing nets every year. Fishing nets can be up to 23,000 meters sq. The size of four football fields. Have the ability to catch up to 500 tons of fish. Fishing nets catch a lot of fish but meanwhile destroy even more marine wildlife. Sometimes, 80%-90% of caught fish are bycatch (ocean life that is unintentionally caught); many do not survive. Fishing nets are often placed between two boats and more through the water once the fish swim into them there is no escape because fish can't swim backwards.
Fish People:
Fish people are mermaids. A mermaid is a mythological aquatic creature with a female human head and torso and the tail of a fish. The male equivalent is a merman.
A picture from the Nuremburg Bible of 1483 shows a mermaid, merman and mer-dog swimming near Noah's Ark. According to this illustration of the Biblical story of the Flood, when land animals were rescued in the ark, the mermaids and merman stayed nearby to weather the storm.
Fissionable:
Capable of undergoing nuclear fission.
Flag of Israel:
The flag of Israel was adopted on October 28, 1948. It depicts a blue Star of David on a white background, between two horizontal blue stripes. The flag was designed for the Zionist Movement in 1891. The basic design recalls the Tallit, the Jewish prayer shawl, which is white with blue stripes. The hexagram in the centre is the Magen David ("shield of David"). It became a Jewish symbol starting in late medieval Prague, and was adopted by the First Zionist Congress in 1897.
The hexagram is a mandala symbol called shatkona yantra. It is found on ancient South Indian Hindu temples built thousands of years ago. It symbolizes the nara-narayana, or perfect meditative state of balance achieved between Man and God, and if maintained, results in "moksha," or "nirvana" (release from the bounds of the earthly world and its material trappings).
Flakka Drugs
Are we on the verge of a real life zombie apocalypse? There is a new drug quickly sweeping across the country.
Flakka, a highly addictive designer drug that causes terrible hallucinations, paranoia and psychosis. Flakka, sometimes known as gravel, is closely related to bath salts, a synthetic cathinone. Flakka comes as a foul-smelling white or pink crystal that, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, you can snort, eat, inject or even vape.
The drug is linked to a number of bizarre incidents over the last few years. Police say a 19-year-old college student may have been on the hallucinogen when he allegedly stabbed a couple and ate one of the victim's faces. Authorities said it took multiple officers and police dogs to stop the Florida State University sophomore on Tuesday from biting pieces of flesh off the man, even after he was hit with a stun gun by sheriffs, according to the Palm Beach Post.
The drug is believed to cause zombie like behavior. It has been called "instant insanity". The effects of the drug last for 30 days.

Fleecing America:
Fleecing means to strip of money or property by fraud or extortion or to charge excessively for goods or services. The Fleecing of America is a pop-culture term most recently used by U.S. media to describe instances of wasteful government spending.
Fleur De Lis:
The fleur-de-lis is said to be a stylized symbolic representation of the Lilium Candidum lily - the "Madonna lily," which has been described as “a royal flower of the ancient world without equal."
The fleur-de-lis has striking parallels of imagery to the goat-headed so-called Baphomet of Mendes.
Flood of Noah:
The biblical story of Noah is contained in chapters 6–9 of the book of Genesis, where he saves his family and representatives of all animals from the flood. Noah was the son of Lamech who named him Noah, saying, "This same shall comfort us in our work and in the toil of our hands, which cometh from the ground which the LORD hath cursed." In his five hundredth year Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. In his six hundredth year God, saddened at the wickedness of mankind, sent a great deluge to destroy all life, but instructed Noah, a man "righteous in his generation," to build an ark and save a remnant of life from the Flood.
Florida Dove:
While many species of dove live in Florida, the mourning dove (Zenaida macroura) is the only dove species native to the state. Many superstitions surround the mourning dove. In many cultures dreaming of a mourning dove is thought of as a bad omen. This is particularly true if the mourning dove is seen in an unusual situation, such as sitting on a bed or suddenly appearing out of nowhere. Many people think dreaming of a mourning dove foretells the death of a family member or close friend. Also, if a mourning dove coos in the vicinity of a house with a sick person in it, they’ll die soon.
Florida Gulf:
The Florida Gulf is threatened by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The oil spill could have disastrous implications for Florida's tourism industry, which is built in part on it's white sand beaches and ocean blue water.
FL Sinkhole:
Florida (FL) sinkholes are a natural component of the landscape. In the simplest sense, sinkholes are depressions in the land surface resulting from the dissolution of underlying bedrock. Their size depends on the local geology.
In Florida sinkholes form in carbonate bedrock, principally limestone and dolostone. Naturally acidic rainwater enters the soil and percolates downward. Upon reaching the carbonate bedrock a chemical dissolution reaction takes place. Small amounts of rock are dissolved, and the acid is neutralized. The natural flow of water through the rock carries away the dissolved rock particles, enlarging natural pores and cracks in the bedrock. Over time, this process may form large cavities and caves in the bedrock.
Two broad types of sinkholes occur in Florida:
1. Collapse sinkholes form quickly and tend to develop in areas with clayey sediments overlying the bedrock. They typically are the result of an underground cavity enlarging to the point where its ceiling no longer supports the weight of the overlying sediments.
2. Solution sinkholes form gradually and commonly occur in areas with sandy sediments overlying bedrock. These typically form by gradual infilling of cracks and voids in the underlying bedrock by cover sediments. The land surface over the infilled bedrock subsides in response. If the slumped sediments are flushed away by groundwater flow in the bedrock, or if the voids gradually grow in size, the sink enlarges over time. Sometimes the underlying voids may become plugged with clays, and a shallow wetland forms. Solution sinks can vary from simple bowlshaped depressions on the surface to open, shallow, water-filled sinkholes.

Fluoridate:
"I would advise against fluoridation.. Side-effects cannot be excluded .. In Sweden, the emphasis nowadays is to keep the environment as clean as possible with regard to pharmacologically active and, thus, potentially toxic substances" ~ Dr. Arvid Carlsson, co-winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine (2000)
"The American Medical Association is NOT prepared to state that no harm will be done to any person by water fluoridation. The AMA has not carried out any research work, either long-term or short-term, regarding the possibility of any side effects" ~ Dr. Flanagan, Assistant Director of Environmental Health, American Medical Association.
"I am appalled at the prospect of using water as a vehicle for drugs. Fluoride is a corrosive poison that will produce serious effects on a long range basis. Any attempt to use water this way is deplorable" ~ Dr. Charles Gordon Heyd, Past President of the American Medical Association.
"E.P.A. should act immediately to protect the public, not just on the cancer data, but on the evidence of bone fractures, arthritis, mutagenicity and other effects." ~ Dr. William Marcus, Senior Toxicologist at E.P.A.
"Water contains a number of substances that are undesirable, and fluorides are just one of them" stated Dr. F. A. Bull, State Dental Director of Wisconsin, speaking at the Fourth Annual Conference of State Dental Directors.
To fluoridate means to add a fluorine compound to (a drinking water supply, for example) for the purpose of reducing tooth decay. Water fluoridation in the United States began in 1945, after scientists noted that people living in areas with higher water fluoride levels had fewer cavities.
The US Public Health Service (PHS) has, since 1962, recommended that public water supplies contain between 0.7 and 1.2 milligrams of fluoride per liter of drinking water (mg/L) to help prevent tooth decay (Some natural water sources have fluoride levels within this range, or even higher). A 1994 World Health Organization expert committee suggested a level of fluoride from 0.5 to 1.0 mg/L (milligrams per litre), depending on climate. Bottled water typically has unknown fluoride levels.
Fluoridation is now used in the public drinking water supplied to about two thirds of Americans. The types of fluoride added to different water systems include fluorosilicic acid, sodium fluorosilicate, and sodium fluoride.
Some of the controversy concerning the possible link stems from a study of lab animals reported by the US National Toxicology Program in 1990. The researchers found "equivocal" (uncertain) evidence of cancer-causing potential of fluoridated drinking water in male rats, based on a higher than expected number of cases of osteosarcoma (a type of bone cancer). Moderate-quality research exists as to water fluoridation's effectiveness and its potential association with cancer; research into other potential adverse effects has been almost all of low quality. Little high-quality research has been performed.
In the United Kingdom, the National Health Service (NHS) Centre for Reviews and Dissemination, University of York, published a systematic review of water fluoridation in the year 2000. After searching through the medical literature, they included 26 studies in their analysis, all of which were considered to be of "low" to "moderate" quality. They concluded, "Overall, no clear association between water fluoridation and incidence or mortality of bone cancers, thyroid cancer, or all cancers was found." However, they also noted, "Given the level of interest surrounding the issue of public water fluoridation, it is surprising to find that little high quality research has been undertaken." See Cancer Water
There has been recent concern over the dangers of too much flouride. Federal health officials say many Americans are now getting too much fluoride because of its presence not just in drinking water but in toothpaste, mouthwash and other products, and it's causing splotches on children's teeth and perhaps more serious problems. Read the full story: US says too much fluoride causing splotchy teeth.
Fluvirin:
Fluvirin is an inactivated influenza virus vaccine indicated for active immunization of persons 4 years of age and older against influenza disease caused by influenza virus subtypes A and type B contained in the vaccine.
Fly A Saucer:
A flying saucer (also referred to as a flying disc) is a type of unidentified flying object (UFO) with a disc- or saucer-shaped body, usually described as silver or metallic, occasionally reported as covered with running lights or surrounded with a glowing light, hovering or moving rapidly either alone or in tight formations with other similar craft, and exhibiting high maneuverability.
Flying saucers are flown and operated by aliens. See Spacecrafts, Nordic Craft, Space Saucer
Fold A Jackson:
The United States twenty-dollar bill ($20) is a denomination of United States currency. U.S. President Andrew Jackson is currently featured on the front side of the bill, which is why the twenty-dollar bill is often called a "Jackson". When folded properly the U.S. $20 bill reveals images of the September 11th terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
Follow Man:
2 Timothy 4:3-4 says to us: "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." Here Paul is warning the Body of Christ that men will seek to follow man, which in essence is loving themselves instead of loving God. They choose not to follow God. Hence veering away from sound doctrine that produces a solid foundation of Holy and righteous living; but they step into sinful living. Some men have tried to lead people to victory but they always lose in the end and the people get hurt. For example, Hitler was followed by bureaucrats, professionals, businessmen, policemen, soldier, and German citizens - people from every walk of life. This was because they placed their trust in men and not in God. Psalm 146:3 informs us: "Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help."
Food Bowls:
A bowl is a round, open-top container used in many cultures to serve food, and is also used for drinking and storing other items. Trace the outline of a a round bowl and you get a circle. The distance around a circle is called the circumference. The distance across a circle through the center is called the diameter. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. Thus, for any circle, if you divide the circumference by the diameter, you get a value of approximately 3.14159265358979323846... We use the Greek letter π (pronounced pi) to represent this value. See A Circular pi, Infinite pi, Math Circles, pi in the Bible

Forgettable:
Forgettable is defined as something that is easily forgotten. The hebraic root for the word "sin" is "to forget". Sin means, literally, "forgetting." Sin is forgetting God's command.
Throughout Scripture, memory is never merely an intellectual issue, but always an ethical issue, a matter of faithfulness to God. Over and over, Moses exhorts Israel in Deuteronomy to “remember” what God did for them in Egypt, and this “remembrance” motivates their actions in the present. To remember simply means "repentance". If repentance is a duty, forgetting is a sin. Forgetting is not an excuse for failing to do what we should. Not obeying the father’s commandments is a sin, and leads off the path of wisdom.

For Money:
Jesus asks, "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matt.16:26). During the Temptation of Christ, Jesus fasted for forty days and nights in the desert. During this time, the devil appeared to Jesus and tempted him. Satan tempted Jesus three times. The Bible states on the third attempt, "the devil taketh him (Jesus) up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me" (Matt.4:8-9). Jesus was offered the whole world, and resisted successfully.
We face temptations nearly everyday. Money is a frequent temptation for most. What would you do for money? Would you have sex for money? Would you lie, cheat or steal for money? Would you fall down and worship Satan for money? When it comes to money and morals, where do you stand?

Frank McKenna:
Frank McKenna, former Premier of New Brunswick, Canadian Ambassador to the United States between 2005 and 2006 and current Deputee Chairman of Toronto-Dominion Bank; served on Carlyle's Canadian advisory board.
The Carlyle Group, L.P. (commonly The Carlyle Group or Carlyle) is a global asset management firm, specializing in private equity, based in Washington, D.C. The Carlyle Group operates four fund families, focusing on buyout capital, growth capital, real estate, and leveraged finance investments.
Carlyle has been profiled in two notable documentaries, Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 911 and William Karel's The World According to Bush.
In the documentary film Fahrenheit 911, Michael Moore makes nine allegations concerning the Carlyle Group, including: That the Bin Laden and Bush families were both connected to the Group; that following the attacks on September 11, the bin Laden family’s investments in the Carlyle Group became an embarrassment to the Carlyle Group and the family was forced to liquidate their assets with the firm; that the Carlyle group was, in essence, the 11th largest defense contractor in the United States. Moore focused on Carlyle's connections with George H. W. Bush and his Secretary of State James A. Baker III, both of whom had at times served as advisers to the firm.
A Carlyle spokesman noted in 2003 that its 7% interest in defense industries was far less than several other Private equity firms. Carlyle also has provided detail on its links with the Bin Laden family, specifically the relatively minor investments by an estranged half brother.
In his documentary The World According to Bush (May 2004), William Karel interviewed Frank Carlucci to discuss the presence of Shafiq bin Laden, Osama bin Laden's estranged brother, at Carlyle's annual investor conference while the September 11 attacks were occurring.
French Fries:
Eating potatoes, especially French Fries, is associated with an increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, reported the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in a prospective study supported by the National Institutes of Health published in its February 2006 issue. The data from this study strongly suggest a potential benefit from limiting the consumption of potatoes, especially French Fries, in reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. See Potatoes
Fried Apples:
Fried apples are apples that have been cooked and are used in various recipes.
Friend Dating:
Many people do not have an accurate perspective of friendship and dating. Many people see dating as little more than friendship. Many people falsely believe that in order to have a successful marriage that two people have to be friends first. For these people friendship is merely a facade, an elaborate dance covering up countless sexual impulses bubbling just beneath the surface. Many people don't understand what true friendship is. According to Oxford Dictionary, friendship means “One joined to another in mutual benevolence and intimacy excluding relatives or lovers”. Friendship is not romantic or sexual in nature.
Dating, on the other hand, is a form of courtship consisting of social activities done by two people with the aim of each assessing the others suitability as a partner in an intimate relationship or as a spouse. While the term has several meanings, it usually refers to the act of meeting and engaging in some mutually agreed upon social activity in public, together, as a couple. From this perspective, dating is recreational and something to be experienced with friends. Not only is "recreational dating" viewed by many as acceptable, it is assumed that "practice" and learning by "trial and error" are necessary, even advisable, before finding the person that is just right for you. The fact that individuals will be emotionally and probably physically intimate with many people before settling down with the "right person" is just part of the deal. According to the current school of thought, the best way to figure out whether you want to marry a particular person is to act as if you are married and see if you like it. Spend large amounts of time alone together. Become each others primary emotional confidantes. Share your deepest secrets and desires. Get to know that person better than anyone else in your life. Grow your physical intimacy and intensity on the same track as your emotional intimacy. And if this pseudo-marriage works for both of you, then get married. But if one or both of you do not like how it is going, go ahead and break up even if it means going through something like an emotional and probably physical divorce. In the self-centered world of secular dating, we want as much information as possible to ensure that the right decision is being made. And if we can enjoy a little physical or emotional comfort along the way, great! Yet where is the biblical support for such an approach to marriage? There is none. How many examples of "recreational dating" do we see among God's people in the Bible? Zero. The category of premarital intimacy does not exist, other than in the context of grievous sexual sin.
Clearly, this is not the biblical picture. The process just described is hurtful to the woman that the man purports to care about, not to mention to himself. And it clearly violates the command of 1 Thessalonians 4:6 not to wrong or defraud our sisters in Christ by implying a marriage-level commitment where one does not exist. It will have a damaging effect on the man's marriage and hers, whether they marry each other or not.
Fruit Salad:
Fruit salad, as we know it today [a variety of fresh, often tropical, fruits], surfaces in the mid-19th century. Culinary evidence confirms sometimes fruit salad was mixed with sugar and alcohol, thus the term "fruit cocktail."
"In these latter days many American cooks make a mixture of fruit, sugar and alcohol, and serve them as "salad." These are not salads; are heavy, rather unwholesome, and will never take the place of a salad..." ---Mrs. Rorer's New Cook Book, Sarah Tyson Rorer [Arnold and Company:Philadelphia] 1902 (p. 439).
