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 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/ The “I Have a Dream" speech is one of the most extraordinary speeches in American history. You should read it again. First, a few thoughts about the common American heritage Dr. King relied upon in calling Americans to rededicate themselves to the unfinished work of freedom.


2/ Dr. King delivered his speech in what he called the “hallowed spot” of the Lincoln memorial. More than a picturesque backdrop, King relied on America’s reverence for Lincoln and the common celebration of Lincoln’s words and acts, especially the Emancipation Proclamation.


3/ “Five score years ago…” King echoes the words of the Gettysburg Address. Like Lincoln, King invokes the Declaration of Independence and the fundamental principles of American freedom, “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Every person in that crowd knew these words.


4/ The Declaration, Constitution and Emancipation Proclamation declared and established the fundamental American principles of freedom that all Americans knew and believed in. But these principles and promises remained unfulfilled for black Americans.


5/ Lincoln’s audience knew the history of slavery and many had suffered personal loss in the ongoing war. Dr. King’s audience knew the history of violent racism, segregation, and unequal economic opportunity. The Proclamation freed the slaves, “but the Negro still is not free.”

A long thread on how an obsessive & violent antisemite & Holocaust denier has been embraced by the international “community of the good.”

Sarah Wilkinson has a history of Holocaust denial & anti-Jewish hatred dating back (in documented examples) to around 2015.


She is a self-proclaimed British activist for “Palestinian rights” but is more accurately a far Left neo-Nazi. Her son shares the same characteristics of violence, racism & Holocaust denial.

I first documented Sarah Wilkinson’s Holocaust denial back in July 2016. I believe I was the 1st person to do so.

Since then she has produced a long trail of written hate and abuse. See here for a good summary.


Wilkinson has recently been publicly celebrated by @XRebellionUK over her latest violent action against a Jewish owned business. Despite many people calling XR’s attention to her history, XR have chosen to remain in alliance with this neo-Nazi.

Former Labour Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell MP is among those who also chose to stand with Wilkinson via a tweet.

But McDonnell is not alone.

Neo-Nazi Sarah Wilkinson is supported and encouraged by thousands of those on the Left who consider themselves “anti-racists”.

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.

Brief thread to debunk the repeated claims we hear about transmission not happening 'within school walls', infection in school children being 'a reflection of infection from the community', and 'primary school children less likely to get infected and contribute to transmission'.

I've heard a lot of scientists claim these three - including most recently the chief advisor to the CDC, where the claim that most transmission doesn't happen within the walls of schools. There is strong evidence to rebut this claim. Let's look at


Let's look at the trends of infection in different age groups in England first- as reported by the ONS. Being a random survey of infection in the community, this doesn't suffer from the biases of symptom-based testing, particularly important in children who are often asymptomatic

A few things to note:
1. The infection rates among primary & secondary school children closely follow school openings, closures & levels of attendance. E.g. We see a dip in infections following Oct half-term, followed by a rise after school reopening.


We see steep drops in both primary & secondary school groups after end of term (18th December), but these drops plateau out in primary school children, where attendance has been >20% after re-opening in January (by contrast with 2ndary schools where this is ~5%).

@danielashby @AdamWJT @Greens4HS2 @TheGreenParty @GarethDennis @XRebellionUK @Hs2RebelRebel @HS2ltd I'll bite. Let's try to keep it factual. There's a reasonable basis to some aspects of this question, that it might be possible to agree on. Then there are other, more variable, elements which depend on external factors such as transport and energy policy. /1

@AdamWJT @Greens4HS2 @TheGreenParty @GarethDennis @XRebellionUK @Hs2RebelRebel @HS2ltd First up, we know reasonably well how much energy it takes to propel a high-speed train along the HS2 route. We can translate that into effective CO2 generated by making some assumptions about how green the electricity grid is. /2

@AdamWJT @Greens4HS2 @TheGreenParty @GarethDennis @XRebellionUK @Hs2RebelRebel @HS2ltd Secondly, we have a reasonable grasp of how much CO2 is going to be generated by building HS2 - there are standard methods of working this out, based on the amount of steel, concrete, earthmoving, machine-fuelling etc required. /3

@AdamWJT @Greens4HS2 @TheGreenParty @GarethDennis @XRebellionUK @Hs2RebelRebel @HS2ltd Thirdly, we can estimate how much CO2 is generated by cutting down trees, and how much is captured by planting new trees. We can also estimate how much CO2 is needed to keep the railway running and generated by maintaining the track /4

@AdamWJT @Greens4HS2 @TheGreenParty @GarethDennis @XRebellionUK @Hs2RebelRebel @HS2ltd We know how much CO2 is saved by moving goods by freight train on the lines freed up by moving the express trains on to HS2, rather than by truck. /5

Wracając do sedna dzisiejszego zamieszania z artykułem autosportu / motorsportu. Kubica mówi w nim, że podejmie swoją decyzję w ciągu kilku dni. Rozważa opcję z Williamsem lub posadę kierowcy symulatora w Ferrari. Więc za kilka dni dowiemy się co go czeka za rok. #F1PL

Autosport / motorsport zmienił nagłówek swoje tekstu, bo pierwotnie sugerował on że Kubica jest numerem jeden na liście Williamsa na tytuł mówiący tylko tym, że nadal jest na liście kandydatów. Zrobili to po interwencji zespołu. Same wypowiedzi Kubicy z wywiadu się nie zmieniły.

Trudno powiedzieć czy autor się pośpieszył i wyciągnął inne wnioski niż powinien, a może wie coś więcej, ale nie mógł tego otwarcie napisać. Słowa Kubicy brzmią jednak jednoznacznie: decyzję podejmie w ciągu kilku dni.

Ok, I'll hop on this Elizabeth Warren/Native American testing bandwagon (gently and non-politically).

I've been a @23andMe customer for a while, and have followed their ancestry updates closely.

All is more or less as expected....except for this bit about Native American.


The family is almost completely composed of Spanish peasants (from various regions) who emigrated, along with a massive wave in the late 19th-cent./early 20th-cent., to Cuba back when it was a booming economy (richer than Spain's) and worth emigrating to (Communism killed that).

Also, the native population of Cuba was annihilated early on---was the first place the Spanish colonized after all. Having a native background in Cuba would be like having the same in, say, Massachusetts, particularly if you're (say) mostly Irish. Just really, really unlikely.

(Note: the North African/Arab background is less mysterious. The Iberian peninsula was part of the Muslim world for centuries. It would be odd *not* to have some Arab/Middle Eastern background coming from Spain. Given the family is mostly from Northern Spain, it's small though.)

I have a Spanish passport, have been back to the ancestral villages in Spain, seen the church where my grandmother was baptized, my grandfather told me stories about growing up as the child of Spanish colonists in rural Cuba. The native bit just clashes with all the family lore.

🌺श्री गरुड़ पुराण - संक्षिप्त वर्णन🌺

हिन्दु धर्म के 18 पुराणों में से एक गरुड़ पुराण का हिन्दु धर्म में बड़ा महत्व है। गरुड़ पुराण में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गती की व्याख्या मिलती है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु हैं, इसलिए ये वैष्णव पुराण है।


गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन-काल में तो मिलता ही है परंतु मृत्यु के बाद भी अच्छे बुरे कार्यों का उनके अनुसार फल मिलता है। इस कारण इस पुराण में निहित ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का समय निर्धारित किया गया है...

..ताकि उस समय हम जीवन-मरण से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सकें और मृत्यु के कारण बिछडने वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके।
गरुड़ पुराण में विष्णु की भक्ति व अवतारों का विस्तार से उसी प्रकार वर्णन मिलता है जिस प्रकार भगवत पुराण में।आरम्भ में मनु से सृष्टि की उत्पत्ति,ध्रुव चरित्र की कथा मिलती है।


तदुपरांत सुर्य व चंद्र ग्रहों के मंत्र, शिव-पार्वती मंत्र,इन्द्र सम्बंधित मंत्र,सरस्वती मंत्र और नौ शक्तियों के बारे में विस्तार से बताया गया है।
इस पुराण में उन्नीस हज़ार श्लोक बताए जाते हैं और इसे दो भागों में कहा जाता है।
प्रथम भाग में विष्णुभक्ति और पूजा विधियों का उल्लेख है।

मृत्यु के उपरांत गरुड़ पुराण के श्रवण का प्रावधान है ।
पुराण के द्वितीय भाग में 'प्रेतकल्प' का विस्तार से वर्णन और नरकों में जीव के पड़ने का वृत्तांत मिलता है। मरने के बाद मनुष्य की क्या गति होती है, उसका किस प्रकार की योनियों में जन्म होता है, प्रेत योनि से मुक्ति के उपाय...

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.
