For edification and in leading by the Holy Spirit, I would like to share with the body of Christ the reason why I use a King James Bible, as opposed to the newer modern versions. Please know, I myself was adamantly opposed to switching from an ESV for years, being actually..

 saved through an NIV bible. I believed the issue was a small one and that it did not matter. I am not here to convince anyone that the love of God in Christ unto salvation is only found in a certain bible, for we know that a man is justified by the grace of God through faith..
apart from any works. Yet, I am led to share some findings (which others already have shared). The newer bible versions have apparently corrupted the word of God, by eliminating words and whole verses. This appears to be the enemy's game plan since most people use the modern..
versions. I am going to list book, chapter, verse (if any one wants to compare the KJV to the modern versions) with a brief description of the differences. In many cases there are whole passages that have been eliminated from the modern versions. Some of you have already done....
their own work here, esp @SolaScriptura99 and also @JoshuaVats to whom I am thankful. They have more extensive findings than mine I am sure. What is evident, is there has been a purposeful hiding of important words/terms in these newer versions such as 'blood', 'heaven',...
'kingdom', 'hell' to name only a few. In no way is this list exhaustive.

Verses
1. 1 John 4:3- NLT/NIV/ESV/ NASB eliminates Jesus Christ has "come in the flesh"
2. Phil 2:6- modern versions destroy the meaning by contradicting Jesus and the Father being one; Jesus being God
3. Matt 9:13 - NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "repentance"
4. John 6:47 - NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "believe on me" (Jesus) to just "believes"
5. Rev 22:14 - NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "do his commandments" entirely and replaces with "wash their robes"
6. Gal 5:12- NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB has Paul calling for emasculation/mutilation of enemies.
7. Mark 9:29 -NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "fasting" to cast out a demon.
8. Matt 6:13- NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates kingdom, power, glory, eternity (forever) from Lord's prayer
9. Luke 11:2- NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates God's location in heaven in the Lord's prayer.
10. Heb 10:34-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates the lasting possession is "in heaven".
11. Rev 16:17-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates the Throne of God's location, "in heaven"
12. 1 John 5:7-8-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB completely removes the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
13. Mark 10:24-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB changes the meaning of the verse by eliminating "for them who trust in riches"
14. Luke 4:4-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates that man should live by..
"every word of God."
15. Dan 3:25-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "the Son of God" and uses either "son of the gods" or "god".
16. Rev 2:15-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB removes the fact that Jesus hates the Nicolaitans' teaching.
17. Rom 8:1- NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "who walk not after...
the flesh, but after the Spirit".
18. Matt 19:17-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB really twists the fact that God is the one who is good.
19. Matt 25:13- NIV/ESV/NASB eliminates it is the Son of man coming.
20. John 8:9-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB removes "convicted by their own conscience".
21. Col 1:14-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB removes the fact that redemption is "through his blood".
22. 1 Peter 1:22-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB removes the fact obedience comes through the Spirit.
23. Rev 21:24-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB eliminates "which are saved"
24. Matt 27:48-NIV/NLT/ESV/NASB makes..
Jesus a liar by inserting "wine' into verse, contradicting his own word in Matt 26:29

PASSAGES REMOVED (subject): Acts 8:37 (Jesus, Son of God); 1 John 5:13 (believing on the name of the Son of God); Mark 11:26 (forgiveness); Matt 18:11 (Son of man saving lost); Mark 15:28...
(on cross); Acts 23:9 ("fight against God"); Luke 17:36 (removal of the wicked); Luke 4:8 ("Get behind me Satan"); 1Tim 6:5 (withdrawing from covetous men); Matt 17:21 (prayer and fasting); Matt 23:14 (damnation); Mark 7:16 (call to hear God's word); Mark 9:44 (hell);...
Mark 9:46 (hell); Luke 23:17 (releasing Barabbas); John 5:4 (healing of paralyzed man); Acts 15:34 (location of Silas); Acts 24:7 (removal of Paul); Acts 28:29 (Jews reasoning over Paul's words); Rom 16:24 (grace of the Lord Jesus Christ); Matt 12:47 (ESV removes only);...
Mark 16:9-20, Luke 22:43-44, John 7:53-8:11, Isa 14:12 (Lucifer; replaced with morning star/day star which refers to Jesus Christ, 2 Pt 1:19; Rev 22:16).

There are much more than what I have listed. I pray that whoever read this tweet, will not just dismiss outright but rather
look into these things for himself/herself. We are one body and one in Christ, who is the Word of God, and we are aware that there is an enemy who always seeks to twist the word, causing doubt as to what God has said and what he did not say...
[Gen 3:1 KJV] 1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Grace and peace in Christ.

1/OK, I should really write another thread about university-centric regional development, because I think people often make some (very understandable) mistakes when thinking about this issue.

2/The biggest myth, I think, is that universities help regions by educating locals as undergraduates.

Skeptics of universities say: "But most of the people who graduate end up leaving."

3/In fact, most of what a university does for a regional economy is NOT about educating local kids.

Educating local kids is good for the nation, but doesn't help a region much.

The way a university helps a region is through

4/Undergraduates usually leave town after graduation.

But university RESEARCH pulls in OTHER smart people from other regions, and they stay there.

Here's a paper showing that this is the main way universities increase a region's human capital:

5/Research also pulls in business investment.

Companies want to partner with university labs, so they can commercialize the technologies the labs produce. So they invest in the labs, and sometimes they even put their offices in the town.

Spent a quaint half hour in a cafe listening to a guy yell at his dad after his dad said that the women Trump molested wanted it: "Dad, that's like saying the Jews who died in the Holocaust were asking for it!" ENJOY YOUR TERRIBLE FAMILIES THIS WEEK!

"Mom, has a man ever touched you without your consent?"
"Of course."
"Did you report it?"
"No."
"Dad, your WIFE has been through this!"

Dad was unmoved and told the guy to stop arguing with him.

At this point we learned the boy child has allergies.

I forgot to remark upon the presence of the very cute grandson, who was very small and gave not one shit about the yelling. I believe a sister or aunt was present and feeling very stressed. I wanted to hand her a Xanax or seven.

It was really hard to not jump in and say, "Sounds like you guys are going to have a fun meal tomorrow!" so they could unite in hatred against me, the outsider, and stop squabbling. Instead I exchanged glances with a nearby fellow lady patron, who also emotionally ate a cookie.

Anyway, I want to thank the random family for yelling about rape and the Holocaust in an Israeli cafe in the US of A today because it reminded me that while this country isn't the greatest, it is inevitably my stupid favorite and I am never, ever bored.

As many of you know, I was apart of the white evangelical tradition. I have talked about things I learned about being Black in white spaces. Now I want to say some things about what I learned about once being a Black evangelical returning back to the Black church.

A thread.

Spending years in white evangelical churches and schools, specifically from 2012-2018, shapes Black people in more ways than we would like to admit. It shapes us to diminish Blackness, devalue our people’s story, and always test what we have against the white logic and litmus.

This is particular reality for us Black men in that space. White Christians exploit our vulnerabilities, give us the room to speak, while simultaneously subverting and devaluing Black women and their struggles and their grievances. Opportunities abound for us and we take them.

We are invited into the meetings, we are given the mic, we are asked to lead groups on race, the Black church, etc. We are asked though often we actually haven’t read or thought deeply about each. We become a weapon. Profiting and policing/punishing those who get out of line.

All the while, white Christians feel good about themselves and other Black people are left to clean up the mess we’ve made, the ways we’ve made fools of Black folk, and the harmful ways we’ve learned to think, and to preach, and to be around us. It is profoundly depressing.

A thread celebrating the many lady librarians of Mumbai, because very often, a woman who reads creates societies of people who read.

Seen here is Mrs Gulshan Feradoon Cooper, Head Librarian for over forty years at The People's Free Reading Room in Dhobitalao. “I am not at all strict, that’s my only drawback,” she said. (She doesn't charge a fine).


“I prefer research libraries because I don’t like novels, I like history," said Sarita Shekar Gandhi, Head Librarian at KR Cama Oriental Institute. Over her years at the library she has devoted herself to understanding the nuances of Zoroastrian studies.


Bidisha Basu co-started @leapingwindows , a library and café for comic books, graphic novels and manga. “You get people who have never read a comic before and that’s the most interesting part of the job. It’s exciting to introduce them to comics," she said.


“A librarian should not only love books, she should also love people," said Arati Desai the Head Librarian at the immaculate Nehru Centre Library in Worli. "I've even swept and swabbed my library, there's dignity in everything that you do at work," she goes on to say.

Make them irrelevant > Hold a grudge

Holding a grudge is the easy thing to do.

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.

21 EMA : SHORT TERM TREND
1. Calculates the Average Price of past 21 days
2. A stock above 21 ema is in strong momentum , which will give pullbacks to 21 ema again and again.

The YouTube algorithm that I helped build in 2011 still recommends the flat earth theory by the *hundreds of millions*. This investigation by @RawStory shows some of the real-life consequences of this badly designed AI.


This spring at SxSW, @SusanWojcicki promised "Wikipedia snippets" on debated videos. But they didn't put them on flat earth videos, and instead @YouTube is promoting merchandising such as "NASA lies - Never Trust a Snake". 2/


A few example of flat earth videos that were promoted by YouTube #today:

A lot of people don't understand that Trump & his incoming team didn't face a normal transition period, like it was over a in a matter of a few weeks or months.

The DOJ transition period JUST ENDED when Sessions left. Almost 2 exact years to get it there.

Pompeo at the CIA took over a year before he was done and ready to shift over to the State Department.

All kinds of stuff has been going on behind the scenes nobody leaks or talks about.

We only had the barest mention of the fact the Clinton Email investigation restarted

Nobody leaked in a year that Huber was deep diving into the Clinton Foundation.
Keep that in mind as all the usual suspects continue to INSIST nothing is happening/going to happen.

Thiruvizha Mahadeva Kshetram
#Alappuzha 
#Keralatemples 🚩

Thiruvizha Mahadeva Kshetram is located in Cherthala and it is believed that Prathishta of temple was done by Vilwamangalam Swamy. Paramashiva is Swayambhu here and is worshipped as Kalakandha which means who swallowed


Halahala visham to save the world during Samudra mathanam. 

It is a famous temple where people seek the blessings, for curing the Kaivisham. The poison given by someone to destroy a person is made to vomit here. This is removed by making them vomit the poison by a special


medicine.
The medicine for vomiting is made from a plant near temple by Palodathu family. The milk offered to Bhagwan is mixed with the extracts of the plant.

Story says that once this place was a dense forest, and a woman was looking for the presence of a tortoise in the pond


and the tip of her stick hit the bottom and it started bleeding in the pond. 
Frightened, the lady informed every one and after searching in pond people found Swayambhu Lingam inside the pond. Thus Prathishta was done here.

Om Namah Shivaye
Shambo Mahadeva
