ON FAITH PART 8: HEALTH AND WEALTH

Begins now 👇

#Illuminare

 1. The Bible says to visit the house of mourning if you want cogitative wisdom. Ecclesiastes 7:2-4. The house of mourning is not necessarily a funeral parlor. A hospital qualifies as house of mourning. #Illuminare
2. You become sober when you visit a hospital. It’s the opposite of a house of mirth – a night club or beer parlor. What is alarming is the continual supply of patients. The flow just never stops. #Illuminare
3. There is a political dimension to disease. Disease has an ideological posture. By nature, it is an oppressor. The oppression is so powerful there’s collegiate resignation by the afflicted. They simply bow powerless. Sickness is hell bent on subjugating the human soul.
4. The affliction of a disease like cancer induces unimaginable terror. The Bible acknowledges the political ideology of disease. It also identifies the personage behind the oppression. We’re told Jesus went about doing good and healing all that were OPPRESSED - #Illuminare
5. -OF THE DEVIL. Acts 10:38. In other words, Satan uses disease to oppress people. When Jesus was confronted over the healing of a woman with a symptom of camptocormia or bent spine syndrome (BSS) on the Sabbath, he asked - #Illuminare
6. - “Ought not this woman, WHOM SATAN HAS KEPT BOUND for eighteen years BE LOOSED FROM THIS BOND on Sabbath day?” Luke 13:16. He had said to her, “Woman, YOU ARE RELEASED from your infirmity.” Luke 13:12. #Illuminare
7. According to the Bible, that woman “had an infirmity caused by a demon of sickness.” She was so bent over she couldn’t look up. She was forced by a demon to look down all her life, like a slave before her master. The devil uses disease as a means of political oppression.
8. Jesus said the rulers of this world lord it over their subjects. Matthew 20:25. Satan is the god of this world. 2 Corinthians 4:4. He lords it over humans. #Illuminare
9. God is NOT trying to teach you a lesson with any disease. He has your phone number he can talk to you directly. “I will INSTRUCT you and TEACH you in the way you should go; I will COUNSEL you with my eyes on you.” Psalm 32:8. #Illuminare
10. "Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you. Receive instruction FROM HIS MOUTH, and lay up his WORDS in your heart". Job 22:21-22. “You guide me with your COUNSEL, and afterward you will receive me to glory.” Psalm 73:24. #Illuminare
11. God doesn’t teach his children by afflicting them with disease. He’s not a wicked dad. He teaches with words. #Illuminare
12. Jesus took care of both our ailments and the political oppression of the devil. It’s why he subjected himself to the beating and torture. His oppression by the political establishment foreshadowed our spiritual oppression. #Illuminare
13. “HE WAS OPPRESSED, yet when he was afflicted he was submissive and opened not his mouth.” Isaiah 53:7. In other words, when Jesus refused to answer Herod’s questions, he was enacting the political oppression of the devil. Luke 23:9. #Illuminare
14. That’s why he scarcely replied his interrogators. WE imagine that the value chain of our healing began with the scourging of Jesus based on Isaiah 53:5, but in actual fact it began before the scourging. It began at his trial. #Illuminare
15. “By OPPRESSION and judgement he was taken away.” Isaiah 53:8. Jesus not only healed our physical and emotional diseases, he set us free from the bondage of the devil. #Illuminare
16. But here’s the problem: we’ve been so subjected to oppression for so long psychological damage has been done. It affects our prayers. We’re so used to being oppressed by the devil, begging and placating him, that we seek to apply the same approach to God. #Illuminare
17. And so instead of boldly claiming what Jesus has done for us as the Bible says, we resort to begging God, pleading with him to save and heal us. As if he’s Satan. And when those prayers go unanswered, we take offence. #Illuminare
18. But the reason the prayers are not answered is because they’re not according to his will. “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we pray according to his will, he hears us... #Illuminare
19. ...And if we know that he hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired.” 1 John 5:14-15. #Illuminare
20. Stop begging God to heal you. He already has. 1 Peter 2:24 says by the wounds of Jesus you WERE healed. It’s in the past tense. You were healed two thousand years ago. Claim your healing, rebuke Satan and thank God for your healing. #Illuminare
21. You need a certain psychological posture to fight off diseases and sicknesses. You need righteous indignation. If you don’t hate your illness for the pain and discomfort at least hate the fact you’re being oppressed. #Illuminare
22. Hate the fact someone is trying to steal your joy, trying to cheat you out of your inheritance. Jesus is your Lord and master, why accept the lordship of the devil? If you don’t get angry you’ll be supplicant to the disease. #Illuminare
23. What you accommodate you can’t fight. Same principle applies to poverty. In scriptures for some reason prosperity is linked to health. You have to hate poverty. Stop creating justification for poverty. Don’t accept it. Prosperity is your right. #Illuminare
24. The four pillars of the atonement are forgiveness of sin, the healing of our bodies, deliverance from evil, redemption from poverty. #Illuminare
25. In much the same way, Jesus became sin for us in order to redeem us from sin (2 Corinthians 5:21); so did he partake of death to free us from the power of death (Hebrews 2:14); - #Illuminare
26. -so did he subject himself to oppression to deliver us from Satan’s oppression (Isaiah 53:7-8); so did he become poor that we might become rich (2 Corinthians 8:9). #Illuminare
27. If you believe God saved you, you have to believe he has prospered you. They’re both in the same package. All you need do is activate the principles of prosperity to release the blessing. #Illuminare
28. You need to work (2 Thessalonians 3:10); you need to be faithful (Luke 16:10-11); you need to sow (2 Corinthians 9:8); and you mustn’t cheat (Psalm 62:10). Follow the word. There is no emergency anointing for prosperity, any more than there’s anointing - #Illuminare
29. - for salvation or forgiveness of sin. All that talismanic stuff is nothing but laziness. “Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper.” Proverbs 13:4 NLT. There are so many religious frivolities – #Illuminare
30. - seeming shortcuts to prosperity that are ideas of men and not in the Bible. “He who tills the land shall be satisfied with bread. But he who follows frivolity is devoid of understanding.” Proverbs 1211. Some people chase foolish fantasies – #Illuminare
31. - stupid dreams. But the Bible says “a person who chases fantasies has no sense.” Proverbs 12:11b NLT. There’s no overnight success with God. It is Satan who promises overnight success. And it’s soon over overnight. God is particular about the law of faithfulness. #Illuminare
32. You have to prove yourself faithful in little before he can give you much. That’s how it works. Now, remember that I mentioned the scriptures link prosperity and health? This is the verse of scripture: “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper - #Illuminare
33. - and be in health, even as thy soul prospers.” 3 John 1:2. Believe God's wishes. I wish you health and wealth in the coming year. Happy New year in advance. #Illuminare
34. I want you to give your life to Jesus. Please pray this prayer: “Father I come to you in the name of Jesus. I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised him from the dead. I am saved. Amen.” #Illuminare

#Illuminare - ON FAITH PART 9: HOW FAITH WORKS

Begins now 👇

1. So, here’s how the faith thing works. It’s like a machine. Think of a car engine with three gears or cogs that are all held together by a fan belt. That’s what the machinery looks like. #Illuminare

2. The first gear is the provisions made by God. The Bible says God has blessed us with EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 1:3 KJV. #Illuminare

3. Everything you’ll ever need in life - every joy, every piece of peace, every deliverance from evil, every healing, every forgiveness of sin, every promotion, every success, every item of prosperity - #Illuminare

4. – your car, your house, your kids, everything has been provided through the sacrifice of Jesus. No blessing is left out. But here’s the challenge: the blessings are located in heavenly vaults, not on earth, and for good reason. #Illuminare

1. It’s virtually impossible to appreciate the full ramification of the New Testament without recourse to the legal construct undergirding it. The New Testament is resolutely mounted on a tripod of commercial law, criminal law and constitutional law. #Illuminare

2. There are other legal dimensions but those are the major three. Without those legal authorities the New Testament will not be efficacious in heaven, on earth or under the earth. It will just be history. #Illuminare

3. That’s not to say only lawyers can appreciate the New Testament. It’s the Holy Spirit that unveils the word. But there’s a way and manner a Paul would read the scriptures that Peter can’t. #Illuminare

4. Paul had formal training in Mosaic law. His dean was Gamaliel. Acts 22:3. Peter on the other hand was an ordinary fisherman, and you can see the difference in their writings. #Illuminare

5. It’s like those first few verses in the book of Genesis. A cosmologist or quantum physicist would salivate over them. He has a technical grasp of the issues. #Illuminare

1. For some reason Jesus decided to come to earth and bifurcate human history at a time medical science was rather primitive. Society was technologically backward. #Illuminare

2. There were no cars, donkeys were the primary means of transportation. There was no air travel either. Astronomy was tied to astrology. Why did he choose that point in time? Why not now for example, or the turn of the century? #Illuminare

3. There are two portraits of Jesus revealed in scriptures, and they’re manifestation denominated. There’s the cerebral, intellectual Jesus Paul wrote about to the Colossians. #Illuminare

4. We’re told all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are domiciled in him - be it quantum physics, chemistry, or genetics. Colossians 2:3. He’s the brain behind creation science, the guy doing all the exciting stuff in the book of Genesis. #Illuminare

5. In this rational capacity he was designated the Logos - “For by him were all things created in heaven and on earth, things visible and invisible…” Colossians 1:16. #Illuminare

Begins now 👇

1. In the last few weeks, we’ve been treating the subject of faith. There are many dimensions to faith. In this article, we’re going to be looking at faith for venture and innovation. Happy reading. #Illuminare

2. The Jewish society in the day of Jesus wasn’t much different from our society today. The elites were segmented. #Illuminare

3. The first segment was the political class. In the main, this consisted of the two major parties – the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party. #Illuminare

4. The liberals were the Pharisees. The party was populist and largely made up of middleclass businessmen and leaders of the synagogue. #Illuminare

1. I’m always perplexed and even get dumbfounded every time I receive a mail from a reader of Illuminare and the content reveals he or she is unfamiliar with the byproducts of the atonement of Jesus – what we call New Testament realities. #Illuminare

2. These are our rights in Christ Jesus. Satan of course capitalizes on such ignorance with demonic oppression. And yet the Bible says you will not experience oppression. Isaiah 54:14 NET. If you don’t know your rights Satan will oppress you. #Illuminare

3. To some, all Jesus died for is forgiveness of sin, and even that is contested. There are those who want to work for their salvation. But if that is the case what’s the point of Jesus dying! #Illuminare

4. In the Bible the Greek word translated “salvation” is Sozo. It’s a multifaceted word. It incorporates forgiveness of sin, the healing of our body, material prosperity, as well as deliverance form demonic forces. #Illuminare

5. Therefore, salvation from damnation is a quarter gospel not the full gospel. The benefit of salvation is not just at the expiration of life, it has very real and tangible benefits here on earth. Salvation is a highly pragmatic program. #Illuminare

During a normal pregnancy, oxidative stress enhances antioxidant mechanisms that are capable of reacting by way of enzyme activity and non-enzyme free radical deactivators. However, pregnancy is also a state in which this adaptation and balance may be easily disrupted.

There is strong evidence that a chronicin flammatory reaction combined with the presence of a local oxidizing environment may play a vital role in the etiology and development of complications during pregnancy.

In late pregnancy, damage to DNA (especially when it is caused by oxidative stress) is associated with pre-eclampsia(PE), intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), and the death of mothers in developing countries; it largely determines pregnancy – related susceptibility to diseases

The referential values of ROS and NOS and their minimal and safe concentrations or physiologically beneficial concentrations are yet to be determined.

The measurement of oxidative stress in vivo is perceived as controversial,

as the sen-sitivity and specificity of various oxidative stress markers is unknown.. .

it seems to me that not many know that navalny is an avowed nationalist & racist and not just a blonde guy who likes to gently kiss his blonde wife before going to jail and watches “rick & morty”. so here’s a little thread and some of it is pretty personal.

here is navalny’s 2007 video. “a tooth without a root is called “dead”. a nationalist is someone who doesn’t want the russian root to be removed from the word “russia”. we have the right to be russian in russia, and we will defend it.”


i downloaded it to make sure it won’t disappear but it is still shared by navalny’s official youtube channel. btw, in this video, navalny is introduced in the caption as a “certified nationalist”.

here is another video navalny is not keen to share anymore, in which he compares muslims to cockroaches and flies and recommends shooting them with guns if swatters and shoes

here is a 2011 interview with navalny where he explains why he goes to the so-called “russian march”, a yearly nationalist gathering, and why he thinks it’s ok to collaborate with

Why do B12 and folate deficiencies lead to HUGE red blood cells?

And, if the issue is DNA synthesis, why are red blood cells (which don't have DNA) the key cell line affected?

For answers, we'll have to go back a few billion years.


2/
RNA came first. Then, ~3-4 billion years ago, DNA emerged.

Among their differences:
🔹RNA contains uracil
🔹DNA contains thymine

But why does DNA contains thymine (T) instead of uracil (U)?

https://t.co/XlxT6cLLXg


3/
🔑Cytosine (C) can undergo spontaneous deamination to uracil (U).

In the RNA world, this meant that U could appear intensionally or unintentionally. This is clearly problematic. How can you repair RNA when you can't tell if something is an error?

https://t.co/bIZGviHBUc


4/
DNA's use of T instead of U means that spontaneous C → U deamination can be corrected without worry that an intentional U is being removed.

DNA requires greater stability than RNA so the transition to a thymine-based structure was beneficial.

https://t.co/bIZGviHBUc


5/
Let's return to megaloblastic anemia secondary to B12 or folate deficiency.

When either is severely deficient deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP*) production is hindered. With less dTMP, DNA synthesis is abnormal.

[*Note: thymine is the base in dTMP]

🚨Important changes to lockdown/self-isolation regulations from 5pm

The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (All Tiers and Self-Isolation) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2021

ÂŁ800 'house party' FPN & police can now access track & trace data

https://t.co/k9XCpVsXhC


“Large gathering offence”

As trailed by Home Secretary last week there is now a fixed penalty notice of ÂŁ800 (or ÂŁ400 if you pay within 14 days) for participating in an gathering of over 15 people in a private residence


Fixed Penalty Notices double for each subsequent “large gathering offence” up to £6,400

Compare:
- Ordinary fixed penalty notice is ÂŁ200 or ÂŁ100 if paid in 14 days
- Holding or being involved in the holding of a gathering of over 30 people is ÂŁ10,000


Second big change:

Since September has been a legal requirement to sell-isolate if you test positive/notified by Track & Trace of exposure to someone else who tested positive

Police can now be given access to NHS Track & Trace data if for the purpose of enforcement/prosecution


This will make it easier for police to enforce people breaking self-isolation rules. Currently there has been practically no enforcement.

Data says only a small proportion of people meant to be self-isolating are fully doing so.

is ADHD a mental illness ?

a thread

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder - people with it are born with it and it cannot be altered because it's part of their brain structure and is seen on brain scans. ADHD is also linked to premature births and hypothyroidism during pregnancy, among other things

from the WHO website: "neurodevelopmental disorders are disabilities in the functioning of the brain that can affect behaviour, memory and/or ability to learn."

neurodevelopmental disorders are not caused by external/environmental factors. you cannot *develop* these conditions

mental illness is a general term for a health problem that significantly affects how someone feels/thinks/behaves. mental illnesses cause suffering to those who experience them, as well as often their loved ones. ADHD does not directly cause suffering.

neurodevelopmental disorders are not mental illnesses. ADHD however, does make it more likely for a person to experience mental illness. ADHD can cause dysfunction and stress, but more often than not this comes from lack of accommodation rather than the symptoms themselves.

Remember: Just because an idea is old doesn't mean it's good.

Knowing whether old ideas are more likely to be good requires understanding whether conditions have changed in important ways.

Horse archery was an amazing method of warfare for over a thousand years...then people invented guns, and suddenly this great idea that had stood the test of time became obsolete.

Then again, when underlying conditions don't change much, tried-and-true approaches are probably better.

"Learning the lessons of history" usually just means assuming ergodicity and stationarity in an informal time-series model...

Sharing one incident... After Modi's Trichy youth conference, the very next morning when police were clearing up their mini-control room, they found 5 strange boys who were roaming there with bags. When police enquired them "Sir, we are from Subramaniapuram in Trichy.

Whatever political meeting or conference is held in this ground, we come here on the same night or morning hours to collect the Liquor bottles to sell in the scrap shop for 50 paisa to 1 rupee per bottle and we used to earn Rs 200 to Rs 400 on each such event.

Even in the last DMK meeting the very next day we collected around 1500 bottles. But for Modi's BJP meeting, we could not find even a single bottle in the whole ground. We are coming around and around and not a single bottle in any corner of the G Corner ground in Trichy,

we are much disappointed, sir!". Police seem were stunned and pleasantly surprised. This is what Modi magic does in this nation. Modi is the one who can lead our nation and make everyone prosper with hardwork in right direction and proper approach.

This funny but interesting anecdote was published by a statewide local daily Dinamalar. I have just translated and posting it here for rest of the nation;

BRAHMA VAIVARTA PURAN: IMPORTANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS.

This Puran introduces us to way of Vedas. On the request of Narad Muni Bhagwan Saavarni had preached this Puran. It is a summary of Dharma, Arth, Moksha etc.


Listening to this Puran one gets automatically attached to Vishnu and Shiva and realize that there is no difference between them. Vyasji divided this book into four parts. It has eighteen thousand shlokas. This whole book is in the form of dialogue between Suutji and Maharishi's.

The first part Brahmkhand, consists of Shrishti description. Here Shri is known as Para Brahma and description of Gokul is also mentioned, It also narrates the argument between Brahma and Narad in which both were defeated, and then Narad went to Shiva to attain more gyan.

Shivji advised him to go to Bhagwan Saavarni for this. Narad goes to Saavarni ashram to seek Knowledge and is totally amazed by the sorroundings.

Next is Prakriti khand which consists of dialogue between Narad and Saavarni where they discuss the

Importance of Shri Krishna through various stories. Then there is the discussion of Prakriti and its various hues. Listening to this gets you wealth.
Next is Ganesh Khand which describes the Punyak vrat done by Parvati ji. After this it narrates the birth of Kartikeya and Ganesh.

But holding a grudge is not the right thing to do.

A grudge puts poison in your body & rewires your subconscious mind.

You consume the poison & destroy your reality while your attacker sleeps like a baby.

Again sharing bank nifty intraday weekly straddle. How to play by selling straddle.
Mostly will work on Monday to Wednesday. Sometimes on Friday.
Why to pay your money to learn this if u can get it here.
U need only practice.
Let’s go.

Say bank nifty future is at 32000.
Sell both 32000 call and put.
Considering current volatile market lest say premium on Monday morning is 350 on both sides.
Sold with 700 points combine premium.
If bank nifty will trade in narrow range say +\- 100 hold it.
If moving 200 points

then exit previous sold straddle. Sell new one. Let’s say BN moved +200
Now sell 32200. If bank nifty will move here within range then u will get profit through theta decay. Follow same procedure for next 150-200 pts move.

This is only for single straddle sell position.

Now in second case sell three straddle. 31900/32000/32100
In case of 100 points move no need to change.
If 200 + then future is 32200.
Exit 31900 and sell 31200 straddle.
If moving another 100 then exit 32000 and sell 32300. Continue same with 100 points move.
If no move then

it will consolidate between 32000-32200 or 32100 to 32300 and u will get theta decay.

This is for normal move. Sudden big move may come anytime. So keep SL in system.
If u r selling at 350-350 then keep SL in system 475 for both legs.
Practice it. No need to attend webinar.
