In the beginning of the world, God created mankind in His own image, but our first parents failed to obey God and incurred his judgment and condemnation. Every person born after Adam bears God’s image, yet has a corrupted nature that hates God and his law.
One would think God would destroy mankind in his righteous indignation and wrath, but he doesn’t. Yes, the curse and consequences of sin are devastatingly bad. The first man and woman are banished from paradise, from God’s presence and his super-abundant blessings.
Yet God shows mercy and declares that the seed of the woman will crush the serpent’s head. There is hope of redemption.
In the fullness of time, God came down and became a man to live a sinless life and pay the penalty for man’s sin through his death. This God-man was Jesus and he was raised from the dead justified, being the firstfruits of the resurrection to come. At last, in Jesus, the long-hoped for seed of the woman dealt a fatal blow to the serpent, breaking the curse of sin and fulfilling the hope of redemption.
This same Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead. On that last day, those who love Jesus will dwell bodily with God forever in the new heavens and new earth. Those who reject Jesus will be condemned forever.
That’s the arc of human history. We are currently living in the already-and-not-yet age, that is, between the time of Jesus’ first and second coming.
We don’t know when Jesus will return, but consider 2 Peter 3:9. “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.”
Friends, God is merciful. Turn to Jesus. Only he is able to save you. Read the Bible with an open mind and ask questions, lots of them! I encourage you to find a church that is biblically grounded, with faithful men and women who can help guide you.

I acknowledge, Lord, and I thank you, that you have created me in your image so that I may remember you, think of you, and love you. Yet this image is so eroded with my vices, so clouded by the smoke of my sins, that it cannot do what it was created to do unless you renew and re-fashion it. I am not trying to scale your heights, Lord; my understanding is in no way equal to that. But I do long to understand your truth in some way, your truth which my heart believes and loves. I do not seek to understand in order to believe; I believe in order to understand. Amen.
Anselm

@npub1az9…m8y8 the password feature was brought up by @npub1qny…95gx during RHR. What do you guys do? Use a separate CC?

2024-06-02 23:12:07 UTC

Have you ever wondered why God led you to discover bitcoin when he did? You, like me, probably wish it were sooner (if so, it can be fruitful to explore why).
If God is sovereign over all things, and Scriptures affirm this, then God led you to Bitcoin at the right moment. Praise God!
If we’re indeed early in bitcoin adoption and you’ve been stacking consistently, then there’s a good chance that you will be better off financially than many people. Why would God allow this? It’s certainly not that we’re deserving. Then why? And to what end?
Worth your consideration.

@npub1az9…m8y8 I’m unsure about the risks involved with “type password over USB” feature in the ColdCard. I love the idea of generating a BIP-85 password and sending the keystroke to my computer, but am hesitant to connect my CC via USB because it would break air-gap.
Would have ignored this but the Secure Notes & Passwords feature led me to revisit.
How do you think about the risks? Are there ways to mitigate other than using a completely separate CC just for this?

Thanks for sharing, Jack. Multiple angles to explore and reflect.
Reminds me of Jeremiah 17:9-10
The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately sick;
who can understand it?
“I the LORD search the heart
and test the mind,
to give every man according to his ways,
according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Also of what could happen when people are big and God is small. Psalm 118:4-8
Let those who fear the LORD say,
“His steadfast love endures forever.”
Out of my distress I called on the LORD;
the LORD answered me and set me free.
The LORD is on my side; I will not fear.
What can man do to me?
The LORD is on my side as my helper;
I shall look in triumph on those who hate me.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD
than to trust in man.

To my Christian brothers and sisters:
If you have Christ you have everything you need.
You can’t take your possessions and wealth with you. Naked you came from your mother’s womb; and naked you shall return.
Yahweh is your shepherd, and you will not want for anything. He will lead you through the valley of deep darkness and bring you into his dwelling place, in spite of your wandering heart.
Fix your eyes on Jesus, and place your trust in the good shepherd who laid down his life for you. He has given you himself and that is everything.

Seeking answers to the questions “What is money? Is bitcoin money?” will take you into a deep rabbit hole on a journey across multiple disciplines. Be warned. It will likely take up much more of your time than you expect.
For Christians, we must take this journey with an aim to answer a broader and supremely more important question. “How do I glorify God in the way I relate to and use money?”

Friends, nostr doesn't fix this. Spend less time on internet devices as a means of connecting. Instead, use it as a coordination tool to cultivate in person friendships. How? Go to meetups, join a sports/hobby group. Make the effort. It's worth it.
Christian men, invite brothers to lunch on a weekday or invite families over after church. Exercise the grace of hospitality. Potlucks are great because everyone can contribute and help out. Christian fellowship is a means of grace, so avail yourselves to it.

2024-02-20 01:22:41 UTC

@npub17kf…k4vf how do you balance (if that's even the right word) the expectation that bitcoin will increase in purchasing power over time and the call for Christians to give generously/sacrificially/joyfully?
I'm not talking about the temptation to secure our future materially and at the expense of generosity. Though that's definitely there.
I'm talking about the wisdom of delayed giving if we intend to give the same amount of sats and the recipient is operating in fiat.

2024-02-19 12:59:41 UTC

GM. I applaud Coinbase for donating to open source. It's also hard not to view it as a diversion tactic to take the sting out of the criticism they've received for removing native bitcoin support in their pay service.

The number of digits generated by USD-to-sats conversion is an obstacle for my pre-teen kids to save and think in sats.
Example: Grandma sends $20 for Christmas and we convert it to sats. At current prices that's around $41,600. If a child has other savings, we're quickly dealing with millions of sats.
We keep a physical ledger to keep track of and custody their sats.
@npub19jk…x0q6 how have you handled this? Any suggestions?

Christian bitcoiners, is your love of money (bitcoin) leading you to worship Mammon? It's a real temptation! Remember that you've been redeemed (your debt has been paid) by Jesus. Worship Christ and seek his kingdom first.
Consider why God has brought Bitcoin into your life. You can't take your sats with you, but you can use it for God's glory.
Yes, as a bitcoiner it's a struggle to balance hodling and investing in high Kingdom ROI projects. Saving is good, but we should be honest about the motivations that are driving our hodling behavior. You can't serve God and mammon. There is no second best.
Our citadel is God. Our hope is the resurrection life, a renewed world where Christ reigns forever.
I'm bullish on Christian bitcoiners. Praying for you all.

"Nature's ledger (gold) has robust parameters for supply and debasement but doesn't move and get verified fast enough in the telecommunication age. Mankind's ledger (the dollar) moves and gets verified fast enough but doesn't have robust parameters for supply and debasement. The only way to fix this speed gap in the long run would be to develop a way for a widely accepted, scarce, monetary bearer asset itself to also be able to settle over long distances at the speed of light."
