The State of Missouri is the best home for the Kansas City Chiefs.
State leaders did our part in putting together an attractive and competitive package that was a good deal for Missouri taxpayers and for the Chiefs.
Missouri’s incentives would have empowered the Chiefs organization to grow and invest in the unparalleled Arrowhead experience, creating a true legacy stadium for the next generation.
Unfortunately, team ownership has decided to abandon Lamar Hunt’s legacy at the iconic Arrowhead Stadium, a place that Chiefs fans have rallied around since 1972. At Arrowhead, every game feels like a Super Bowl. No new stadium will replicate that.
I join Chiefs Kingdom in expressing my strong disappointment with this decision.

@SDHokieJeff @Chiefs @AroundTheNFL Been a fan my whole life. Tired of all the greed. Can’t afford to watch every game-can’t afford tickets. The multi billionaire owner moves the team bc we won’t foot the bill. I’m done. Going to lose millions more fans.
English
Wow! I’m curious what the KC Chiefs fans think, will they follow the Chiefs to Kansas? When the Chargers moved from San Diego to LA, I would say 80% of the Chargers fans in San Diego abandoned the team. People in LA are Raiders or Rams fans, the Chargers really don’t have many fans. Most fans are either opposing fans or corporate fans.

We’re excited to take another momentous step with you, Chiefs Kingdom.

@dom_lucre Fan for 30+ years. The billionaire owner wants to move the team bc the local community voted not to increase taxes. I’m done with them. Sad day for many chiefs fans.

@sportsrage Yes! Went to a top golf for the first time a few years ago. Prices were crazy high—new to golf. Went to a golf course to see how much the driving range costs—never been back to top golf. Saved hundreds.

Top Golf's problem is its way to expensive . Casuals get scared off by cost

Callaway acquired Topgolf for $2 billion in 2020 but is now selling the business to a PE firm for $1.1 billion. Same-venue sales are down double digits, higher rates have destroyed returns, and Callaway's stock is down 50% over 5 years. READ MORE: huddleup.substack.com/p/inside-the-r…

@BiblicalBeauty I might have to watch more British TV. I cannot even look at half of the people on American TV. Especially older actors who have been around for a while. They don’t even look real anymore. Many look like the Crypt Keeper from late night TV years ago.
English
My husband and I are watching another British drama, and I’m once again struck by how the actors and actresses look so pleasantly normal compared to the casts of American productions. They are allowed to age. They’re allowed to be ordinary. The unnatural effects of plastic surgery, Botox, lip fillers, etc. are refreshingly rare.
Do people in the UK in general tend to have more reasonable and less artificial beauty standards than here in America? I’m just curious how such a dramatic difference in aesthetic norms came to be.

It costs like $80 to take a family of four to the movies now if you’re buying popcorn and such. That’s quite a risk to drop that kind of cash and then hold your breath for the first lesbian to walk out on screen.

@JeffSnider_EDU The only reason these fast food places ever became popular is due to their low prices. Now, terrible food at a high price is no longer acceptable. Further, most fast food shouldn’t even be labeled as food—as they do not contain food items, but ultra processed garbage.

Wendy’s just announced it’s closing hundreds of U.S. stores.

That’s not about burgers, it’s about the economy.
When people can’t even afford a $5 meal, it means the consumer engine that drives everything is stalling.

@BlackLabelAdvsr Just stand on the Bible. Be consistent in your hermeneutics. Take all passages about the subject into consideration and humbly accept that others will as well. When others are outside the bounds of faith then remove fellowship—otherwise stop infighting on issues such as these.

@alexbruesewitz Movies are terrible and prices are way too high. People can easily watch a movie on their big screens w/o paying exorbitant amounts for popcorn drinks and snacks.

The movies suck. There's no creativity coming out of Hollywood at the moment. I can't remember the last new movie I saw that I was blown away by. They certainly don't make them like they used to.

@SteveDeaceShow With this type of understanding we can claim anything satanic. How about we treat our brothers and sisters in Christ with love and respect rather than name calling. Christian’s strive for peace w one another not strive for likes at the expense of each other. Apology needed here
English
This is Satanic. Anything that paralyzes you from taking righteous action is not of Christ. Christianity is not the perpetual asking of questions, but the earnest and ceaseless seeking of answers. Satan deceives, paralyzes, and slanders. You know a tree by its fruit.

@bromarkcase55 When you say Israel and the promises you mean 12 tribes right? Not just one tribe? You keep saying Israel and then equating that to one tribe in this long post. Can you confirm Israel = 12 tribes/sons of Jacob?

@Kabamur_Taygeta Careful you are quoting the evil OT God here!
Curious: what evil have I called good?
English
The 10 commandments weren’t rules from God but rules from Lucifer.
There are many contradictions of "God" in scripture, but most notably, the Old Testament God contradicts his own commandment of "thou shalt not kill" by ordering his chosen people to kill disbelievers. This is false light.
Moses is a fictional character based on Akhenaten, a teacher of 'God-within' like Yeshua. The elites intended to continue ritualistic pagan worship of Enki-Lucifer under the alias Yahweh by twisting their stories to create a new religion.
The one true God isn’t a violent, jealous man visiting planets, needing sacrifices, scaring humans into obedience or commanding violence against other humans. God is the Source within all things. This has been a morality test for humanity.
English
@Kabamur_Taygeta The second: it’s not tenable to say an evil entity provided the Decalogue. The commandments are a universal good when followed. Third: a good God doesn’t require sacrifices or blood: the Bible teaches that God is Just and Merciful. In the sacrifice of Jesus God shows us both.

@WesleyLHuff Whatever you say, even if it has been a long held understanding, will be a fight on here. The tribes of people are more entrenched now than ever before.

This clearly created waves. Few things to point out:
1. This is a pretty standard, non-controversial take as far as the study of Greek goes. The words in the NT *are* synonymous and used interchangeably. I have yet to find a source that says otherwise that isn't attempting to make an argument from tradition in defense of a particular church polity rather than standard exegetical hermeneutics.
2. I'm not saying that the development we see take place in the 2nd century is a bad thing, merely that it is in fact a thing. There can be a reasonable case made that the distinction and hierarchy seen take place in the division of the offices was even a necessary one. I think the short time between the NT author's use of said terms and Ignatius's divisional categories of them is a good case of how quickly doctrinal/dogmatic development can in fact take place. It's a good example of why scripture must be our guiding principle in *all* cases, not to the exclusion of church tradition we see develop, but nonetheless, in subservience to it. Traditions are not bad, historical Protestantism doesn't believe that. Tradition has a vote and a voice, but scripture has the veto.
3. This post was not an attack on Roman Catholic, Eastern / Oriental Orthodoxy, or the LDS. I hate to break it to everyone, but you guys do not monopolize my posting motivations. I simply was working through the Greek text of 1 Timothy 3-5 and it prompted the post.
4. Go touch grass, hug your kids, go for a walk, drink a good cup of coffee/tea. I didn't read that many comments but you don't need a PhD in ancient manuscripts know that far too many of you guys spend way too much time getting angry on X.

Biblically, a “pastor,” “elder,” and “bishop” are 3 words for the same thing. In the New Testament, the terms “elder,” (πρεσβύτερος), “bishop,” and “overseer” (ἐπίσκοπος) are essentially interchangeable, referring to the same leadership role in the early church. “Elder” stems from the Jewish context and “bishop” from the Greek term, both essentially meaning an overseer. The slight nuance is that qualifications for an “elder” stipulate standards of character, emphasizing a wise, mature leader who is respected, while “overseer” and “pastor” describe the functional aspects of leading and shepherding. The word “pastor” originates from the Old French “pastour” meaning “herdsman or shepherd”, a derivative of virtually the same word in Latin. The three-tiered ecclesiastical system that eventually separated bishops, elders, and pastoral roles only emerged in the 2nd century, specifically in the writings of Ignatius, who first distinguished the overseer as the sole head of the city-church. Earlier writings like 1 Clement and the Didache still used the terms interchangeably.
