[Dustin @r0ck3t23]

Elon Musk just admitted the most expensive mistake of his career.

It quietly dismantles the entire credentialing mythology.

Musk runs rockets. Neural implants. Autonomous fleets. Humanoid robots. The most complex engineering operation on earth.

You would assume he selects above all for one thing. Raw intellect.

Elon Musk: “I’ve made the mistake of thinking that sometimes it’s just about the brain. I think it actually matters whether somebody has a good heart.”

He didn’t learn this from a textbook.

He learned it by hiring the sharpest minds on the planet.

And watching the ones without character build things that were technically stunning and structurally corrosive.

The establishment sold the opposite story for a hundred years.

Get the degree. Get the credential. Get the paper.

That paper was supposed to prove you were exceptional.

It doesn’t.

A degree is proof of compliance.

It proves you showed up. Met deadlines. Followed a rubric.

Sat inside an institution for four years. Never once challenged the structure that held it together.

It does not prove you will speak when the room expects silence.

It does not prove you care about the thing you are building more than the title you hold while building it.

It does not prove you have a spine.

Raw intelligence without character is not an advantage.

It is a precision instrument aimed at your own foundation.

Now extend the lesson.

Intelligence itself is being demonetized.

An algorithm is about to solve in seconds what takes a PhD an entire career.

When cognitive power becomes unlimited and too cheap to meter, the premium on being smart collapses to zero.

The establishment spent a century grading you on the exact skill we just taught silicon to do better, faster, and for free.

But a machine cannot feel conviction.

A model cannot hold a moral line.

A server farm cannot refuse to cut a corner out of duty to another human being.

When intelligence becomes infinite, character becomes the only scarce resource left.

Integrity is not a soft skill anymore.

It is the last advantage that cannot be automated.

We spent a generation outsourcing our worth to our intelligence.

Intelligence is about to become the cheapest thing on earth.

Character will become the most expensive.

The mind was never the measure of a person.

The heart always was.

Despite Scripture clearly saying otherwise, why is it that we (all mankind) are more concerned about what others think about us rather than what God thinks?

---

The fear of man is a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is set securely on high. {Proverbs 29.25 (BSB)}
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad. {2 Corinthians 5.10 (BSB)}

Then I saw a great white throne and the One seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from His presence, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne. And books were opened, and one of them was the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their deeds, as recorded in the books. The sea gave up its dead, and Death and Hades gave up their dead, and each one was judged according to his deeds. Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death—the lake of fire. And if anyone was found whose name was not written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. {Revelation 20.11-15 (BSB)}

On the other hand, God promises wisdom if we fear Him

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. {Proverbs 9.10 (BSB)}

Without this global town square for free speech, a lot of important things never would’ve seen daylight.

Real-time information governments tried to bury. Scientific debate that was actively censored. Voices that would’ve stayed silenced forever.

Respect to @elonmusk for being the man in the arena when it actually counted. 🫡🙏

🇺🇸💪♥️ I do not care what anyone thinks about me for saying this today. Because President Trump deserves to hear it. And I am done waiting for the right moment. This is the right moment. President Trump, thank you. Not for a policy. Not for an executive order. Not for a rally or a speech or a headline. For something so much more personal than any of those things. Thank you for waking up every single morning at 79 years old, when staying in bed would have been so much easier. Thank you for skipping meals that went cold, for missing family moments that never came back, for traveling to countries most Americans cannot find on a map, for sitting in briefings before most of America opened its eyes, for carrying criticism that would have broken most people permanently, for getting back up every single time the world said stay down, for donating every single dollar of your salary, for giving up the most comfortable life imaginable to sit in the most uncomfortable chair on earth and carry the weight of 340 million people without once asking any of us to notice. You did not have to do any of this. You had everything…the money, the properties, the comfortable life, the peace…and you gave all of it away for a country that does not always stop to say thank you. And today I am stopping. Because I refuse to be part of that silence anymore.

Today, in front of every single American reading this, I want to say what most people feel but never actually say out loud. Thank you, President Trump, for everything you gave that we never asked for, for everything you carried that we never fully saw, for every morning you chose America over yourself. We see you. We feel it. And we are more grateful than words will ever fully capture. God bless you. God protect you. And God keep giving you the strength to carry what most of us could never lift. 🇺🇸💪♥️

@rawsalerts @Polymarket @RawsGlobal My bad. I posted this without my editor's (my wife) review.

The Bible mentions several spiritual entities in addition to demons that could be confused as aliens or UFOs.

[Gary Martin Abbott @TenMinasNetwork]

@Polymarket @RawsGlobal
I have no idea what is in the UFO files to be released nor do I care!

As a student of God's Word, it seems obvious to me and many others that the "aliens" are real demons that normally exist in other dimensions but occasionally "pop" into ours.

Nevertheless, instead of focusing on "aliens" or "UFOs" or "demons" our focus should always be on our Creator and His kingdom!

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. {Matthew 6.33 (BSB)}

God hates pride!

@@@@@@@@@@
To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate arrogant pride, evil conduct, and perverse speech. {Proverbs 8.13}

This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” {James 4.6 (BSB)}
Young men, in the same way, submit yourselves to your elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” {1 Peter 5.5 (BSB)}
@@@@@@@@@@

God consistently and almost immediately disciplines me not only for prideful actions but even for prideful thoughts.

How about you? How does God deal with your pride?

[Gary Martin Abbott @TenMinasNetwork]

@theallinpod @SawyerMerritt @nvidia

When discussing the engineering challenges to put data centers in space the CEO of NVIDIA, Jensen Haung made a rash statement. He said, "It'll take years, but that's ok. I got time."

@@@@@@@@@@
Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business, and make a profit.” You do not even know what will happen tomorrow! What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.” As it is, you boast in your proud intentions. All such boasting is evil. {James 3.13-16 (BSB)}

None of us know how much time we have on this earth before must stand before our Creator and give an account of our life.

@@@@@@@@@@
It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.” So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. {Romans 14.11-12 (BSB)}

I pray Jensen humbles himself and asks God for forgiveness for saying, "I got time."

Yesterday, 2026.03.15 I asked the question, "What does it look like to overcome?"

Some observations:

- There are 28 occurrences of the Greek word, nikaó (Strong's G3528) in the New Testament.
- John, as author used 24 of those 28 in his writings.
- Thirteen of the 28 occurrences (almost half) are in the book of Revelation.
- With so many occurrences of a powerful and loaded verb like "to overcome" in the final book of the Bible, "the revelation of Jesus Christ," it would seem God is making a point to which we should pay attention!
>> But what point(s)?
- The Greek word, "nikaó" (Strong's G3528) is translated by the NASB as follows:
>> overcome (11), overcomes (10), overcame (2)
>> conquer (1), conquering (1), overpowers (1), prevail (1), victorious (1)
- An interesting "factoid"
>> "nikaó" (Strong's G3528) comes from niké (Strong's G3529)
>> Not only does the word niké (Strong's G3529) look like the name of the sports equipment giant, but it is pronounced "nee-KAY" and means "victory"

So, as a first thought about what it means "to overcome," it could be related to being victorious

Over the next few days, I plan to look at all 28 of the occurrences. Hopefully, through the process the Holy Spirit will reveal what He wants me to know.

What does it look like to overcome?

{1 John 2.12-14 (BSB)}
I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven through His name.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning.
I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one.
I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.
I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

Question
John liked sets of three! In the first eight verses of Revelation 1, I found eight sets.
How about you? What sets of three do you see?

Question
Name the seven Spirits of God

Passage
John, To the seven churches in the province of Asia:
Grace and peace to you from Him who is and was and is to come, and from the seven spirits before His throne, and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.

A followup to my previous post about reading Revelation 1, the audio is available on my website at: https://t.co/fowgYpHDbN

[Gary Martin Abbott @TenMinasNetwork]

Jesus promised in Revelation 1.3 that those who read aloud the words of His prophecy would be blessed as well as those who hear and obey what is written in it. He said this was so because the time is near.

This morning, I recorded an audio version of Revelation 1. However, X doesn't accept m4a audio files. So, soon I'll redo it in an mp4 video version.

Who are all the participants in the first paragraph of the book of Revelation?

This is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon come to pass. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John, who testifies to everything he saw. This is the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. {Revelation 1.1-2 (BSB)}
