Are we in the end times?

Are we living in the end times? Is the world really coming to an end? What will it be like? What does the scientists have to say about the end times? How does this contrast with what God has to say? What am I suppose to do?

Some say the planet Mars will crash into our earth, others say a large meteorite will crash into the earth around 2012. Still others say nuclear weapons will destroy the entire earth?

What does the bible say: 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. ( taken from http://bibletab.com/h/heat.htm)

What signs should we look for to confirm these are the last days? What about the mark of the beast? Is the RFID chip being pushed to be implanted in our bodies the mark of the beast described as 666? Is the world heading for a trade collapse?

What about the anti-christ? Where will he come from? What will he be doing? Should we obey him? Will he destroy Israel?

There are so many questions. What we know for sure however, is that all the signs do point to the end times...So we should seek to make our lives right with Almighty God. When you do this you will be ready for the rapture of the believers.

Read the book of Daniel for signs.

Balanjay Choka (eggplant roasted) MMMmm!!! Tasty!

Balanjay (eggplant) choka with oil roti or sada roti is a very tasty dish. I am not going to tell you how to make the roti, but if you need to know feel free to email me at persaudanthony@yahoo.com.

What you need for the choka?

1 large eggplant (the younger the better)
1-2 wiri wiri pepper chopped finely
1 large tomato
4 cloves garlic peeled
1/4 finely chopped onion
1 ounce of butter
salt to taste
2 table spoon olive oil. (Not necessary though)


Method:

Puncture the eggplant at different angles about four times and stuff the peeled garlic into it. Place the eggplant and tomato to roast over open flames by resting it on a mesh or suitable device. If you don't have a gas range place on mesh/ wire tray in electric oven about 400 degrees. Cooked for an hour to two and turn every half of an hour or as necessary.

Next peel the skin off the eggplant when it is roasted properly and if there is too much seed in the eggplant scoop out some of it out and discard with the skin. Peel skin off the tomato and add the peeled tomato on top of the eggplant in a bowl. Add the pepper, salt butter, onion and olive oil. Then take a fork and mashed everything together thoroughly until there is no solid pulp.

Serve hot with the hot roti (preferably the oil roti).

Enjoy. But don't overeat like me.

KITTREE - you may love this.

My mom taught me this dish. She is great at cooking it. I am not sure if there is another name for it, but from since a kid I have known it as "Kittree". Here is the recipe for kittree.

1/2 (half) onion

4 or 5 fegs of garlic

1/2 large pepper or about 3 wiri wiri pepper (gives great flavor)

2 lbs cut up chicken

1 and 1/2 pint rice (brown)

3/4 pint of split peas (yellow peas)

black pepper to taste

Fine leaf thyme to taste

about 1/2 stem fine chopped celery.

1/2 (half) stick butter.


Cut onion , garlic and pepper in to small pieces and fry same in a small amount of oil. Stir until garlic and onion appears to be getting brown. Add 2 pints of water and bring to boil. Then add split peas to pot and boil for 15 minutes. Add rice and allow to boil for 20 minutes.

In the meanwhile you can fry the cut up chicken without or with seasoning to your taste, in another pot. After the rice has boiled for the 20 minutes as suggested above, add the fried up chicken to it. Add the celery, the black pepper, the butter, and the fine leaf thyme. Stir and allow to cook for another 10 to 15 minutes. (You can always add water to ensure the rice is totally cooked. )

Serve hot or stale. Enjoy.
