Did the prior titans of industry, like Carnegie, actually change anything for the better, Kurt? Americans work three times as many hours, are more stressed, and eat worse food. Is Bitcoin not just more worldly futility that Jesus told us to avoid?

See this one @292 ?
I disagree completely. Our lives are objectively better because of industry. They have curated time for us to do bigger and better things. We work less, have more, etc... what people choose to do is on them.
I'm with Kurt!👍
I think our lives are objectively better because of The Magna Carta and The Enlightenment. To say we are better off because of the industrial revolution and 19th century land clearances, is dubious. People work longer hours to create worthless products
More inhabitants is more people applying for the same job (500-1000) this give employees more stress because they are easy to replace, they start to work harder and more hours, is no cooking time. Solution it to work less and by replacement moving away.
I made a mistake and wrote Enlightenment, when i should have written Renaissance.
You, and I work less because people in China and American ghettos, work more. We worked less after capitalism helped land owners join fields together. We worked more after all the fields were joined together and sprayed with pesticides.
We are enslaved. What is the point in fighting it? How can we beat the prince of this world by worldly means? By capitalism? By Bitcoin? The Bible says that we cannot. There is only one way to beat him. To opt out of the world, in enslavement to Christ.
Salvation is freedom. I am free because “it is finished,” and my debts have been paid.
The prince of this world has been defeated. Christ is risen! The kingdom of God is at hand. We live the Good News now and onto eternity.
Th Kingdom of Heaven is in we, the believers. We are being saved as we are being perfected in Christ (peculiar Greek present continuous tense, found in John)
We still live in the world which is still ruled by darkness. The wheat and the tares together.
Give this some prayer, Kurt. Heaven and hell exists side by side until the Day of The Lord is come (likely in about 1200 years). Ezekiel 12-14 speaks to this day: when the wheat and the tares will be separated.
I believe Jesus wants ALL from you, Kurt.
The Greek present continuous tense, Kurt. We are no longer sinners, but we are not yet perfected. We are no longer subject to law, but we do not have license. We go on.
Bitcoin is not what God wants of you. He wants it all. All of you.
I replied to Kurt's Twetch. I do not think it CC'd you. Please check out the responses. Blessings.
Look through this thread. I get zero likes. Is it because i am obnoxious and crude? Or is it because i tell you the truth and the world loves her sin?
Sin is the problem. You cannot serve two masters. Over and over and over again, i tell you: to serve Bitcoin is to serve mammon
Your objection to the TLR movie was lavish tongues. The mountains of fruit found in TLR and lavish tongues is the objection?
Yes Kurt you are so right. The progress of technology began with eating the fruit of Knowledge and has grown into an world network based upon English and Sha256.
It was all gods will through the scriptures to bring all men the light of the world.
Dan 12:4
Have you ever considered why English is the universal language of computers and numbers? 500 years ago England was 99.9% illiterate and no books in English.
Why? The KJV Bible. The book that made English a written language-
English is bitcoin.
Everything is God's will. Even the extreme that God desired Satan to rule this world. It doesn't help to point that out. It is simply more vain philosophy at the scene of an accident.
Technology entered with the fall and Cain/watchers.
I don't like it
The wolf/lion will lay with the lamb. In about 1200 years (likely), a new heaven on earth will negate the need for technology. All this devilish technology will be consumed in a fire from hell that makes soddom look like a match being struck.
Error. Not from hell. It will look like hell but the stars will rain down from the heavens.
@5554 With respect to you, I believe this is a presumptuous, non-truthful, & non-prophetic statement "Bitcoin is not what God wants of you". Kurt, in his close relationship with Jesus Christ, walks his walk. Please stop trying to direct a fellow believer.
@5554 You have NO deep insight into Kurt's relationship with the Lord or future path. Your continued pestering of Kurt does not reflect well on Jesus. Jesus and the Apostles didn't pester. Please preach the Good Word with love to those who have not heard.
Are you not directing me by telling me to not direct a fellow believer? I pray about my interactions with Kurt and this is what i believe i should do. Until Kurt stops me, i shall continue with this.
I believe that The Lord wants more from Kurt than Bitcoin. I shall continue to tell him so. Until he stop me.
How can you call the internet devilish?
That makes you a book burner and irrelevant in this talk space because here we have a network of communication that has fulfilled the the commission to preachy the Gospel to every creature. Mark. 16
How do you know that i have no deep insight? are you all knowing?
Yes, I am advising/telling you that you are being a pest and not reflecting the Spirit of Jesus Christ. You can pray but still act upon your flesh. You can ignore me if you want.
I would not be saved if it was not for the internet. The internet is how I found the Bible and you are going to call it evil? This shows extreme blindness to the work of the god you claim to love. The papists are the anti technology ones not Jews or Christ
Kurt is a public figure, I am not. Kurt will be far more diplomatic and less direct in his words than I. Anyway, that's all I will say. You can decide my words have wisdom... or not.
Evidently i am not ignoring you. I haven't passed judgement on you once and you presume to pass it on me. A pesky pest, no less.
I am going to continue with Kurt until HE stop me. Not you. Full metal jacket.
And do you not know that his doctrine above is incorrect? And you branch it? And his false doctrine gets lots of likes because Christians revel in license. And you don't point it out? You didn't "like" any of my correct teaching.
If Kurt not ask you for your involvement then i would submit that this qualifies as a, "game"

One might find salvation in a satanic ritual. We can find it in many ways. Technology is from the enemy in my opinion. The pace of technology in the last 100 years is certainly being directed by the evil one.
Do you feel threatened by the notion that the earth is flat and the lies are much grander in scale? I found it difficult to accept. If yes, is this why you are having the issues that you have with me? would you prefer not to know?
Justification vs. Sanctification, at least according to Systematic Theology textbooks. I didn't "like" your recent twetches because each one (at least the ones I saw) had something I disagreed with. I "liked" others of your twetches.
I thought I mentioned to you before I was researching the earth is flat theory. I'm a scientist and geologist by training. That has nothing to do with my opinion your behavior towards Kurt doesn't reflecting Christ's Spirit as you believe.
You say technology is the enemy, yet your trying to use it for good by telling everyone it is evil. A leagalistic view trying to make God's providence of better place where people can talk and share the word of God and glorify him into an bad thing.
Your anti technology stance is ridiculous to speak of on Twetch because we all see that bitcoin has the power to benefit all people by restoring fare money that can be sent anywhere instantly.
Have you ever heard of the dark ages?
And I could be wrong, this is just my opinion. As you are sharing your opinions about Kurt with Kurt. Good night!
Yes, Justification vs Sanctification. I compliment you AGAIN in your knowledge of doctrine (longer in faith than I). Feel the love?
Why did you not point out Kurt's inadequate doctrine and instead choose to chastise me?
You and I are likely the only two on Twetch with a doctrine that is close to the intended.
I continue to attempt to work with you. Do refuse to work with me because flat earth is making you feel uneasy?
Because you can't get systematic theology into 144 ch or whatever is the limit!
You make *A LOT* of assumptions about people, brother. How do you claim I feel uneasy (which I'm not at all)? How do you know I'm not researching it (which I am)? Please stop trying to mind-read me.
People's comfort is of little merit. When people's lives are very bad the kingdom becomes bigger and stronger. Persecution is a blessing.
My opinion is extreme and i withdraw from attempting to convince you. Dark ages anarchy was probably amazing.
The dark ages were amazing? You didn't tell is you were a BLM looter
There was a question mark at the end. I am VERY careful not to assume. Not one assumption.
What i do know, is that i detested the guys who told me that the earth be flat, for about three months.
"one might find salvation in a satanic ritual"🤔 I can't believe that any saved person would say that. That is just plain insane and antichrist.
And being an expert on flat earth, i find it surprising that you have not asked me for any pointers on the subject that you are researching.
Well, I credit you for getting me to start looking into it. But I have a lot of other things to do so researching will likely not be a quick process for me. Have a good evening, brother, I'm going to bed!
