I really want to keep TTN going financially and have for the past month gotten back onto forex trading. I burnt my fingers big 2 decades ago, so am skittish and only trading demo while trying to get more screen time.
If anyone personally knows of someone who successfully trades forex in the London session (even just part of it) and they are willing to mentor me then I would highly appreciate it.
I believe this would sooner get me to a point where I can again carry TTN financially.

When studying or discussing Biblical concepts we should refrain from using passages that have no real relevance to the passage to which we are referring. for example if we are looking atIsaiah 1:3, why introduce anything that doesn’t pertain to not knowing who God really is? there is in Exodus 3 and 4 the conversation between the Creator and Moses. Moses doesn’t want the job and tries to refuse, but God, refutes every argument including Moses not being able to speak well. Moses may have thought this was relevant at the time, but God didn’t. Exodus 4:10, “Please, Lord,” Moses replied, “I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since You have spoken to Your servant, for I am slow of speech and tongue.”
BIBLE STUDY --- THE GOOD SHEPHERD
UNREPENTANT CITIES
From Matthew 11:20-30
Yeshua had some strong words for the three towns in which He had performed most of His miracles, for these towns had still not turned to Him. [You will be sorry, Chorazin! And you will be sorry, too, Bethsaida! If Tyre and Sidon had seen the miracles that you have seen, they would have put on sackcloth and ashes and turned to YHVH. On the Judgment Day, YHVH will show more mercy to these cities than to you! [Capernaum, you wanted to lift yourself up to heaven. You will be brought down to hell. If Sodom had seen the miracles that you have seen, it would still be standing today. Let Me tell you, then, that YHVH will show more mercy to Sodom on the Judgment Day than to you.] Then Yeshua prayed, [Abba, Adonai of heaven and earth, I thank You for revealing the truth to the ordinary people when even the wise and learned fail to see it. This is the way You have chosen. Turning to those around Him, Yeshua said, [My Father has placed everything in My trust, for He alone knows Me completely. And I am the only one Who knows Him, except those to whom I have revealed Him. Come to me, all of you who struggle with heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Put My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble, and you will find rest for your souls, for My yoke is easy to wear and the work I give will seem light.]
TEARS FOR YESHUA’S FEET
From Luke 7:36-50
One day a Pharisee named Simon invited Yeshua to dinner. Yeshua went to Simon’s house and ate with him at his table. In the same town there was a woman who did not have a good reputation. When she learned that Yeshua was at Simon’s house, she went to see Him, bringing with her an alabaster flask filled with expensive perfumed oil. With tears in her eyes, the woman stood behind Yeshua at His feet. She began to wash His feet with her tears and to dry them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet again and again and poured the expensive perfumed oil on them. Simon the Pharisee began to have doubts about Yeshua when he saw this. He said to himself, [If Yeshua really were a prophet, He would know what a bad reputation this woman has and would not let her touch Him.] Yeshua knew Simon’s thoughts and spoke to him. [I have something to tell you,] He said. [Please tell me what You have to say,] Simon answered. Then Yeshua told Simon a parable. [There was a man who loaned money to two people. To the one he loaned five hundred days’ wages. To the other he loaned fifty days’ wages. Neither man could pay him back, so he told them both to forget the debt. Which man do you think would love him most, Simon?] [I suppose the man who owed him most,] Simon answered. [You are right!] said Yeshua. Then Yeshua turned toward the woman. [Look at this woman!] He said. [When I came into your house, you gave Me no water to wash My feet, but she has washed My feet with her own tears and dried them with her hair. You would not give Me the usual courtesy of a kiss of greeting, but she has been kissing My feet since I came. You did not even give Me olive oil to put on My head. But she has poured out her expensive perfumed oil on My feet. Let Me tell you this: because she has loved Me much, I forgive all her sins, even though they are many. But the one who shows Me little love, receives little forgiveness.] Then Yeshua spoke to the woman, [Your sins are forgiven.] Others at the table began to question this saying, [Who does He think that He is, telling others that He forgives their sins?] But Yeshua told the woman, [It is your faith which has saved you. Go in peace.]
COMMENTARY
THREE TOWNS THAT NEVER REBUILT
During the time of Yeshua, three important towns dotted the northern side of the Sea of Galilee. Bethsaida, which meant [House of Fishing] may have been the fishing district for Capernaum, possibly adjoining the town along the sea. But nobody can be sure, for the location of Bethsaida has been lost. There is not even a trace of the town today. Chorazin, about two miles north of Capernaum, has left a little more for us -- a pile of stone ruins. Little is known about this town, however, except that it once was important, and along with Bethsaida ignored Yeshua and what He said. Capernaum was privileged to be the home of Yeshua after Nazareth rejected Him. But even though Capernaum offered Yeshua a home, it refused to accept what He said, or believe in Him as the Moshiach. These three towns had something in common. They saw the miracles and heard the teachings of Yeshua personally. But they refused to heed them. They had something else in common. In early believer’s history, each one ceased to exist and has never been rebuilt, just as Yeshua prophesied.
BIBLE STUDY --- HARO’EH HATOV {THE GOOD SHEPHERD}
THE GREATEST FAITH IN ISRAEL
From Luke 7:1-10
When Yeshua finished His sermon, He returned home to Capernaum. A Roman army officer heard that Yeshua was back and sent some important Jews to talk with Him about a very dear servant who was dying. Through them, the officer begged Yeshua to heal his servant. [This man loves our people,] the Jewish leaders said. [He has even built our synagogue.] Then they urged Yeshua to come to the officer’s house and heal his servant. Yeshua went with these men toward the officer’s house. But along the way some of the officer’s friends came with a message from him. [Don’t go to all this trouble,] the officer told Yeshua. [I am not worthy for You to come to my house. Just say that it is so and my servant will be well. I understand these things, for I have superior officers whom I must obey, and I have soldiers under me who must obey me. When I tell one to go, he goes! When I tell another to come, he comes! When I tell a servant to do something, he does it!] When Yeshua heard what the man had said, He was amazed. Turning to the crowd that had followed, He said, [I have not found such great faith anywhere, not even among you people of Israel.] When the messengers returned to the officer’s house, they found that his servant was already well.
A WIDOW’S ONLY SON
From Luke 7:11-17
On the next day, Yeshua went with His disciples to a town called Nain. A great crowd followed Him as usual. As they came near the gate of the town, they met a funeral procession coming out. The dead man was a widow’s only son. With her, there was a large crowd of mourners. When Yeshua saw the widow, He was filled with pity for her. [Don’t cry!] He told her. Then He walked up to the bier and touched it and the men who carried it stopped. Yeshua spoke to the dead man. [Young man, get up now!] The man got up and began to talk, and Yeshua gave him back to his mother. A deep sense of awe came over the crowd and they quietly began to praise YHVH. [A great prophet has come among us,] they said. [YHVH has come to His people.] The news of what Yeshua did went all over Judea and even beyond into the surrounding country.
A QUESTION FROM JOHN THE BAPTIST
From Luke 7:18-35
The disciples of John the Baptist heard about Yeshua’ miracles and reported them to John in prison. John then sent two of his disciples to ask Yeshua a question. [Are You really the Moshiach, or are we still to look for Him?] John asked. That is the question the men passed on to Yeshua. [John wants to know if You are really the Moshiach, or must we continue to look for Him?] The messengers happened to come when Yeshua was healing many people of their diseases, removing evil spirits, and giving sight to the blind. Yeshua told these men, [Go back to John and tell him what you have seen and heard. The blind has their sight restored, lame people walk again, lepers are cured, the deaf hear, dead people are raised to life, and the Good News is preached to the poor. Happy is the one who does not doubt Me.] When the messengers had left, Yeshua talked to the crowds about John. [When you went out to listen to John preach in the wilderness, what did you expect to find? A weak man, bent by every little wind like a blade of grass? Of course not! Well, then did you go out to find a man dressed in rich clothing? No, not that either, for men with rich clothing live in kings’ palaces. What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, you did, and you found more than a prophet. John is so important that he was mentioned in Scripture, ‘I will send My messenger before you, to prepare the way for you.’ Let Me tell you something. There is not a greater man on earth than John. And yet, in YHVH’s Kingdom, the least important person is greater than John.] Everyone who heard this, even the tax collectors, praised YHVH and agreed that He was just and right, for they had accepted John’s baptism. However, the Pharisees and teachers of the Law did not agree. They had rejected John’s baptism and YHVH’s purpose for them. Yeshua had this to say about these men: [How can I describe you? You are like little children who play in the streets. When some pretend there’s a wedding, the others want to pretend that there’s a funeral. Or, when some pretend there’s a funeral, the others want to pretend that there’s a wedding. When John the Baptist came, he wouldn’t eat bread or drink wine. What did you say about that? ‘He has a demon!’ When I came, I ate bread and drank wine. What did you say about that? ‘He’s a glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ Of course, the truth becomes obvious to those who accept it.]
COMMENTARY
FUNERALS IN BIBLE TIMES
During Bible times when someone died, a loud wail went up from those in the house. Friends and neighbours joined the family as soon as they could to express their sympathy. To show their sorrow, they tore their clothes and walked barefoot, beating their chests. As the immediate family mourned, others prepared the body for burial. The women of the family washed and wrapped it from head to toe with strips of linen layered with spices. The face was covered with a linen napkin. The body was then placed on an open bier. The funeral followed soon after the death, often on the same day. Professional mourners were hired to lead the procession. Professional musicians played mournful music. Close friends and relatives took turns carrying the bier, while the rest of the mourners followed behind. As they wound through the town, the people they passed joined the procession as a sign of sympathy and respect. Taken to the burial ground, the body was placed in a cave or a shallow grave, which was then sealed with rocks.
