Implemented some UI improvements.
Also, now there is a random verse, which will display random verses when the dice is rolled. but the default placeholder is Proverbs 16:33, reminding is of God's sovereignty.

Thanks for the feedback. Syncing with NOSTR is definitely what I am after but need to educate myself a bit more to actually implement. That's why I am looking for people to contribute.
I used base44, and I need to examine the code to see how it was developed under the hood and what tech stack it used.
My goal is to take that initial development and make it fully FOSS with NOSTR integration.

2026-03-01 16:17:18 CET

I have been working on a Bible app that allows users to create custom reading ranges that the player can read out loud, with a loop option for continuous listening.
The app was inspired by a request from our small group for focused verses memorization.
I used base44 forthiss initial version, but the vision is to have it as a #FOSS PWA with #NOSTR and #BTC #Lightning integration.
I don't have any prior app Dev experience so I am looking for people who would like to #help and contribute.

Same situation here.
After my second child was born, It took over two years, many wrongful charges, revisions, phone calls, and being wrongfully sent to collections because apparently after certain period of time, the hospital's billing department automatically sends people to the collection agencies.
When I reminded then that they could never figure out the actual bill to begin with, they admitted not having enough smart controlls and procedures to prevent that, which creates more chaos, paperwork, and frustration.

Evil sinners who commit such heinous and wicked crimes will pay their due penalties in hell, and I do believe there are degrees of punishment inhelll, and they deserve the worst.
People are fully responsible for sins committed, and yet that doesn't interfere with God's sovereignty. It is mystery how that works, but I am willing to accept it by faith as I see it throughout the Bible.
Can God prevent things from happening? Yes, He can. Does God intervene and prevent certain things from happening? I believe, the answer is resoundingly, YES.
Does He always do that. NO.
Why and when He decides to intervene is up to Him, according to the counsel of His will.
Again, it is a hard concept for me to grasp as well, like why the perfect God allows so much pain and suffering, but I know that He will eradicate evil and restore full righteousness.

I believe the Bible. All of it. Jesus laid down His life for His sheep, for many, for the church.
His atonement was effectual and particular. He paid the due penalty for all who believe. He did not pay for the sins of unbelievers.
I don't understand why would that make a comparisonate God, Who rescues sinner from His wrath, a monster?

First off, I was responding directly to your question as to what I think he got wrong, and one of the points I made is that he describes some fringe minority of so called “Hyper Calvinists” rather than explaining what the majority of Calvinists actually believe and what the Doctrines of Grace are.
Whether you care about Hyper Calvinism or not is sort of secondary to the discussion as you obviously posted the video, but I was responding to the content and substance of what and how it was covered.
He seems to attack and mock functional Calvinists as opposed to focusing on the doctrines.
I am not just showing bunch of passages; instead, with brevity in mind, I was listing passages relevant to the points I was making and defending, assuming that you or the other readers would have sufficient Bible knowledge to read and discern for yourselves, considering the entirety of the Bible.
And, yes, many people believe different things, that’s why we need to focus on the doctrines themselves and not on people, and more ignorantly, hypothetical and subjective non-sense.
But the youtuber generalized and portrayed Calvinists in a horrible and subjective way, didn’t he, instead of focusing on the actual doctrines.
According to him, there are so many atheists in the world because of Calvinists, and Calvinists have “blow-up dolls for wives,” and Calvinists instituted slavery in the US? Just some of the things he says, to list a few... And you decided to post and propagate this.
On you last point, I would tie that more to the doctrine of Unconditional Election, which is also linked to Limited Atonement.

Saved From The Wrath of God
By nature, we are enemies of God because of our sinfulness. We need to be redeemed and reconciled to God by repentance and accepting by faith the grace shown to us and be saved from the wrath of a Holy God.
Romans 5:9-11 ESV
https://image.nostr.build/7c644b7d85179c253f12a6cd8fdb8734e01adce0d0f152864f37f9b8f307be1e.jpg

He seems to describe some fringe minority of so called “Calvinist,” rather than explaining what the majority of Calvinists actually believe, or reject in that matter. Listen to the opening statement of R.C. Sproul on the Man’s Radical Fallenness regarding Luther, Calvin, Augustine, etc. vs the ultimate authority of the Holy Scriptures. “None of them individually, and all of them collectively, are to be regarded as infallible teaching authority.” Period! We reject all Calvinists writings contradictory to the Bible. We understand that these were flawed man.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Axo7sSW4nlQ&t=74
Hyper Calvinism is not orthodox and historic Calvinism, and I use this term reluctantly out of necessity because of the fallacy and the misconceptions displayed by the youtuber, which are perhaps deliberate and intentional as he doesn’t appear that ignorant to me.
We preach the gospel to all, to as many as we can. Listen to John Piper on evangelism and predestination:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK_YIDMQuJc&t=279
Romans 10:13-15 ESV
«For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”»
We don’t know who will believe. We preach indiscriminately. God decides! We obey the command with gladness to be the messengers of the gospel of Christ!
______________
On Sovereignty...
Who are the Calvinists who say “because God is sovereign, He cannot do this or that?” What specific doctrine is he referring to?
Also, he is making pointless arguments by playing on words and semantics instead of focusing on substance. The Trinity is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible either but it is powerfully inferred and thought in the Bible. Also, plenty of verses to support God's sovereignty. And, yes, God can’t do certain things; God cannot contradict Himself, for instance. God cannot die. God cannot sin. That’s not an a Calvinist’s concept; it is a Biblical reality.
Job 42:2
«I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.»
How does that play out with men’s free will?
It is a mystery that we are willing to live with.
MacArthur’s INCREDIBLE Take on Arminianism Vs Calvinism
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEH-X2rP0WM&t=91
Either way, even under Arminian doctrines, it is still a mystery how God’s sovereign will and purpose is done while men have free will.
Daniel 4:34-35 ESV
«At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom endures from generation to generation; all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, and he does according to his will among the host of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand or say to him, “What have you done?”»
____
About his reference to Psalm 135:6...
Psalm 135:6 ESV
«Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases.»
It is both doctrinal statement as well as contrast to false gods. That’s that. I don’t understand what’s the issue he is trying to make out of this in this section of the video as in other sections. The sovereignty of God is throughout the Bible, and very similar verses are found in:
Psalm 135:5-6 ESV
«For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods. Whatever the LORD pleases, he does, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all deeps.»
________________
Calvinism doesn't reject that people are and should be accountable for choices actions, quite the opposite, people are accountable before a Holy God and without an excuse according to Biblical teaching, which all orthodoxy affirms. The fact that some are not saved is because of their sin, unrepentant hearts of stone, and unbelief, rejecting Christ.
Here are some more from John Macarthur and John Piper:

The very own words of our Lord Christ:
Luke 13:3 ESV
«No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.»
Matthew 11:28 ESV
«Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.»
The general calling and invitation is to everyone, so no one has an excuse.
By why don’t they come, believe, repent?
John 10:25-29 ESV
«Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.»
And yet, we do believe and affirm the following:
Romans 10:13ESV
«For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
_________________
God enables our will because it is corrupt in its natural state, it will not and cannot choose God, although God commands it.
1 Corinthians 2:14 ESV
«The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.»
It is not that God can't handle rejection. He lovingly saves people because otherwise all people will perish. And He will be just to send everyone in hell as we have all sinned. He saves out of love, not because He can't handle rejection.
Ezekiel 33:11 ESV
«Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die, O house of Israel?»
2 Peter 3:9 ESV
«The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.»
John 6:44 ESV
«No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day.»
John 6:65 ESV
«And he said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.” »
Ephesians 1:11 ESV
«In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will,»
Yes, we don't win souls for Jesus, we are faithful to preach, being used as instruments, and God will save as many as He has appointed to eternal life.
Acts 2:38-39 ESV
«And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” »
Acts 13:48 ESV
«And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.»
1 Corinthians 1:23-24 ESV
«but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.»
He was able to persuade 10,000 people. What an arrogant statement. Most of the so called Calvinists I know, listen to, etc. speak with humility about our own salvation and the salvation of others when it comes to evangelism, etc. as we give all glory to God for this undeserved grace, knowing that if He didn’t quicken our hearts to respond to the gospel call of repentance and faith, we would have died in our sins and be sent, deservingly so, to hell because of our sinfulness (born sinful and sinning afterward because of our utterly corrupt nature) and rebellion against a Holy God.
No real Calvinist thinks that we shouldn’t evangelize. This is nonsense. We already covered that.
________________
Yes, God allows sins, otherwise He would stop it, but He is not the author of sin by not preventing it as He has the power to do so, and in many cases He does so but not always. It is according to His sovereign will and purpose.
Calvinists don't decide on what God should be; we study scripture and come to sound understanding of God's character, will, sovereignty, etc.
_____________________
How does God work and makes things happen according to him without canceling our will? And I agree that God doesn’t cancel our will. That is a vague statement that explains nothing. I already covered that under the points of God’s sovereignty.
Listen to “What is Free Will” by R.C.Sproul, which is from the same lecture series right before the Man’s Radical Fallenness. This one is a bit more philosophical, and it sets the stage for the the Man’s Radical Fallenness.

Calvinists cheat on their wives?!? I find this to be very unfair, cheap shot at Calvinists. Shame. Arminians don’t do that, right? Very ignorant.
Final blessings and benediction to you!
Ephesians 1:3-12 ESV
«Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory.»

Very shallow understanding and exposition, and as usual, misrepresentation of the Doctrines of Grace.

Imagine Not Seeing Yourself in The Mirror for Over 50 Years
https://image.nostr.build/1a21074f919c814face842e4e307018b09df5bd5b30c7db484c57af102ab4b7c.jpg
James 1:22-25
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.
András Toma, a Hungarian WWII prisoner of war, was captured by the Soviets when he was 19 years old. Initially sent to Gulag, András eventually ended up in a psychiatric ward in Kotelnich, Russia, where he spent the next 53 years, for a total of 55 years in captivity in USSR/Russia.
Being a foreigner and not speaking Russian prevented him from proper communication, and authorities and hospital staff misinterpreted his Hungarian dialect as gibberish and yet another sign of a mental illness. The harsh conditions in the psychiatric hospital, in addition to the the isolation, contributed to his further mental deterioration.
Some story variations about his life suggest that since apparently there were no mirrors in the psychiatric ward, at least not accessible by the patients/inmates, András never saw himself in a mirror all these years.
It wasn’t until a Russian from a Hungarian descent had an encounter with András and recognized his speech as a Hungarian dialect that sparked the overdue investigation of András’ origin; the investigation, after a series of events, eventually led to his release in the year 2000. András returned to Hungary at age 75.
Imagine the last time you saw yourself in the mirror was 55 years ago, when you were 19 years of age. Now, imagine your reaction after seeing yourself in the mirror for a first time in 55 years. You are now 75 years old, and the last reflection you saw in a mirror was your younger 19-year-old self; a youthful face, spark in your eyes, no wrinkles, plenty of hair, etc.
Some stories also suggest that András stared at the man in the mirror for a long time. According to these accounts, he completely broke down in tears after seeing his reflection; the shock was just too hard to handle. It is unclear whether it is true that he never saw himself in a mirror during his captivity or whether András' account of looking in the mirror after being released has been fictionalized. Regardless, the spiritual inference that can be drawn from this story is worthy of examination.
Just as a mirror reflects our physical appearance, God’s Word reflects our spiritual image. Time may pass without reading the Bible, and when we return to it, hopefully we will see the ugliness of sin and the deviation from Holiness.
Have you ever experienced being away from the “mirror,” and when you return to it, you break down because of the sin that it exposes and the picture it portrays as a reflection of your spiritual condition? Do you see the ugliness of sin compared to the holiness of scriptures? I have, and that’s one reason why this story spoke to me in a very personal way as it made me recall how by the grace of God the words of Holy Scripture brought confession and restoration.
Returning to our main passage, the question is how can we be doers if we are not even hearers and/or readers of the Word of God. Hearing and reading is a necessary although not a sufficient condition for being spiritually alive and growing in maturity (justification and sanctification). It requires saving faith that produces “fruit in keeping with repentance” (Matthew 3:8) and perseverance. (Read the Parable of the Sower and its interpretation in Luke 8:4-15.) The problem is that when we are away from the “mirror,” we become dull and oblivious to the changes that are happening to us spiritually, with declining abilities to discern and detect any deviations from holiness.
A friend of mine, who is a mature believer, after reading the story and the initial draft of this reflection, made the comment that since we can’t see all parts of the body in a mirror, the back of the neck for instance, God has ordained other means of Grace and preservation of the Saints, one of them being surrounded by other believers. Here are two verses that illustrate this point:
"Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17 | NASB
“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11
The importance of spending time in the Word and meditating upon its richness comes also from the beautiful reality that the Word of the Living God is more than a mirror; there are many comparisons that are made in the Bible as it relates to the Word. Here is a sample to catalog a few:
MEANS OF TESTING:
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Psalm 105:19
Until what he had said came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him.
SPIRITUAL FOOD:
Matthew 4:4
But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
SPIRITUAL ARMOUR:
Ephesians 6:17
...and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
OUR GUIDE:
Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
A REVELATION:
Psalms 119:130 | NABRE
The revelation of your words sheds light, gives understanding to the simple.
To summarize the main point as it relates to Christians, the spiritual analogy of András Toma’s story will have a crushing effect for believers, leading to confession, grief over sin, and eventually a gracious restoration.
Now, consider what would happen if you place a corpse in front of a mirror. The corpse will remain unaffected by the reflection, won't it? To clarify this point, we must draw a clear distinction between those who are "saved by faith through grace" (Eph 2:1-10) and those who are under God's wrath and condemnation because they are still "dead in trespasses and sin."
For those of you reading who are still not saved, please consider the following passages. My prayers is that God will quicken your spirit and graciously save you!
Ephesians 2:4-5,8-9
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ — by grace you have been saved — For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Romans 3:21-24
But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it — the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
Romans 10:8-15
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Acts 2:37-38
Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Galatians 3:24 WEB
So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 10 (various verses)
I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.
For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again.
This charge I have received from my Father.”
Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. I and the Father are one.”
Acts 16:31
Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.

Finished the book. I really liked it. Loaded with scriptural references and illustrated with life examples.

«When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.»

I am from an Easter Orthodox background, but I am not an Eastern Orthodox Christian. I am a Christian striving to be aligned with the pure, orthodox scriptural doctrines of the Holy Bible.

Beelink is what I recently got as well. For how long you've had it? Any feedback on that mini PC?

The generations sound like a great way to experiment, version, revert back, etc. I can't wait to get more proficient in NixOS.
By the way, I have one application that comes only as a tar.gaz file with the executables for Linux. How does NixOS handle such applications?

Conceptually, NixOS sounds very appealing because of its reproducibility and stability. I was sold on the idea the first time I heard of its unique approach. The package management sounds fantastic.

Thanks for your feedback. I will be watching your other instructional videos, starting with installing software tomorrow.

I will give it a try tomorrow. This is what this step looks like on my end, and I tried it on two different machines (same USB ISO image).

Subscribed to your YouTube channel.
I pretty much followed the same steps, except the erase in the partition step never worked until I switched to the manual install in the terminal, made changes to the partition, but the installation still failed, so I restarted, and this time the partition step worked.
What never worked was the unfree software. It never showed me the dialogue box, it just failed. It makes me wonder why bit happened, and if the installation can be trusted...

Mike, I have installed a few Linux distro in the past, and I really wanted to give Nixos a try today.
The interface install didn't complete initially because, regardless of which option I choose in the partition step, it either failed, or the installer had the "next" button grayed out.
Also, in the previous step, Unfree Software, documentation and tutorials show an additional dialog box; however, during my setup, that dialog was missing, and I just got a message that it failed.
I tried on two machines already, and it failed on both. I then switched to the manual installation, and that didn't fully work either, but at least it deleted tbe old partitions, and after restarting it, the interface installer worked, except for the unfree software step.
Kind of frustrating, but at least I got it up and running, and I also managed to make a few changes to the config file, rebuilt, amd rolled back and to the previous generation as a test.
I am still concerned about the unfree software step though.

I followed you today as I am getting started with NixOS, switching from Ubuntu.

I have installed a few Linux distro in the past, and I really wanted to give #Nixos a try.
However, it would not install. Regardless of which option I choose in the partition step, it either fails, or the installer has the "next" button grayed out.
Also, in the previous step, Unfree Software, documentation and tutorials show an additional dialog box; however, during my setup, that dialog is missing, and I just get a message that it failed.
I tried on two machines already, and it fails on both. Very disappointing experience.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

How do you like #NixOS? It has been on our radar for some time now. We just need to dedicate the time to get started with it. Conceptually, it sounds awesome.

Will do. I will also try to provide feedback as I read through the chapters. Sort of a reflection as I study through.

Since we share sermon links indirectly, we also encourage you to get the #newpipe app from the #F-Droid or the #Droid-ify stores, and the links from yewtu.be should open directly on the app. You may need to add the link in the "Open by default" section by enabling #Open supported links," and putting a check mark:
#android #grapheneos | sorry #iphone users, #iphones suck.
