One who is slow to anger shows great understanding, but a quick-tempered one exalts folly.
Proverbs 14:29 TLV
This is the same principle as "turn the other cheek". Take time to understand your opposition and you might discover that they aren't your opposition at all.

Negotiations with the Bank and the Future of TTN
This morning, I had an hour-long conversation with a bank advisor regarding the business debt. While I’ve been backed into a financial corner, there is a glimmer of hope—some loan relief has been offered for six months starting in January. This could provide a much-needed chance to catch my breath and work toward stabilizing things.
However, the current business bank account has been closed. I’ve applied for a new account and should have an update within the next 48 hours. While this situation is difficult, it might prove to be a blessing in disguise. But here’s the reality: I need to know that this community is willing to rally together to support TTN. Otherwise, all of this effort and pain may be in vain, and insolvency could become the only path forward.
The Role of the Community
For TTN to thrive, we need more than financial support—we need active participation. TTN was never meant to be just a static platform where people post and leave. It was designed to be a secure space where our community could engage in meaningful conversations about our shared faith. But this vision only becomes a reality when more members actively participate in discussions.
I could gamify the platform to encourage engagement and keep people “busy,” but is that truly what we need as a faith-based community? Or should we focus on fostering genuine, impactful dialogue?
Addressing Community Concerns
Ministries and members, I urge you to fully embrace TTN’s potential and use it as it was intended. If there’s anything in the Terms & Conditions (T&Cs) that you feel hinders participation or growth, let’s address it together as a community. For example, I know that the topic of polygamy has been raised as a contentious issue. If this or any other point is preventing our community from growing, let’s have an open discussion and decide as a majority how to move forward.
Shaping the Future Together
TTN can be shaped into a truly inclusive platform for our faith-based community, but it requires collaboration. Let’s work together to remove divisive barriers and build a space where everyone feels they belong.
Your engagement is vital, not only for the platform’s survival but for its transformation into something even greater. Let’s stand united and ensure TTN remains a valuable resource for all.
What are your thoughts? Let’s start this conversation now.

A new Edition of The
Lawful Literal Version
LLV Bible is out now!
…a work in progress with over 68,000 improvements so far!
The whole text of LLV341 Truth puts its opponents to shame Edition:
As far as the translator is aware, every name is now spelled with the aim of accurately reflecting the correct, historical pronunciations of these historical names according to modern phonetic English-alphabet transcription, e.g. ‘y’ not ‘j’ for the sound at the start of ‘yellow’, ‘w’ not ‘v’ for the sound at the start of ‘water’. The transcriptions in the LLV are aimed to be better than those of any English translation of Scripture made so far, because they consider not only the pointings of the medieval Hebrew texts but also the older transcriptions in Greek and Latin letters.
Please distribute freely, but only by sharing the link to this doc:
It’s free! Download the LLV/ABSV from here:

Please send suggestions for correction/improvement in private messages to Garth Grenache.
A list of all the improvements and the research and thinking behind them can be found at the same, above link.

Thought for Today Thursday December 12
When things seem to be going all wrong, stop and affirm your trust in YHVH. Calmly take all matters to Him, and leave them in His capable hands. Then simply do the following: thank Him constantly through trusting prayers, and rest in His Sovereign control. Rejoice in Him.
"He shall save the children of the needy, and shall crush the oppressor."
Ps 72
