Dear Bitcoinists,

mails have been read and prayers have been spoken;

mails are usually checked every day, i would love to read from you, do not hesitate to send me a short or long letter.

God bless you all!
- Thomas

"I can do all this through him who gives me strength."
- Philippians 4:13



As for the discussion about the capitalization of the word God, i want to repeat myself:

Both is correct, god and God. As i made it obvious there is only one it's not offensive at all as i do not doubt his infinite power, love and wisdom and that there are no other gods than him.
"God" with capital "G" is meant as a name while "god" with a small "g" in general describes the entity which surrounds & created everything.

I had a little discussion with someone who told me that "god" would describe any god. I opposed him by explaining that if there is only one god there is no doubt about who is meant.
“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me." (Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV)

“Indeed, We sent Nuh (Noah) to his people, and he said: “O my people! Worship Allah! You have no other Ilah (God) but Him. Certainly, I fear for you the torment of a Great Day!” [Al-A’raf 7: 59]

These citations can be seen as a confirmation. There is no other than the one and only God.
But to prevent further misunderstandings on this i have edited the previous posts aswell for emphatizing my point of view.


There is no really fixed price in general or something as i want to make sure everyone is able to participate, just donate me if you think it is appropriate.
Reading through first page, I see users trying to crucify OP because he or she mentioned 1btc but maybe they didn't consider the intent of "if you think is appropriate". I think that nails all argument about paying for prayer in OP's

Thanks for reading carefully. I stated clear that this is a free service. No hook, no hidden paragraphs.
Everyone is welcome to write me a letter. The intention of this thread is to encourage people thinking about prayer. It is about getting in direct, intentional and active contact with God. I already wrote that praying yourself is definitely the best thing - but sometimes it is good to know you have someone else praying for you aswell.  Smiley

Dear readers and writers,

as always, thanks to all who wrote me an electronic letter.
Your prayers will be spoken.


Real case from my life. A few years ago, I was experiencing financial difficulties, I went to the megapolis in search of work, I lived on the street, there was no money for a hostel. Got a temporary job in an outsourcing company at the LG plant, on the packaging conveyor. Having received a salary for 45 days, about $ 220, I borrowed $ 80 to an unfamiliar man, i saw him on the same street. He requested that he urgently needed money and assured me that he would return it the next day. But about a month passed, and he answered that he had no money now and he would return it later.                                                                                        I was left almost without money, it was the beginning of winter, and job cuts. Then I went to the local mosque, prayed with people, and then told my story to Allah alone, saying that I forgive my debtor, but in return I asked for lodging, a wife, and livelihood. Two months later, I married a local girl, met on the Internet. Another two weeks later we settled into an apartment, and after 2 years I received an average business.                                                                       
       Since then, in gratitude to God, I have pledged to help people in difficult situations, regardless of their race, nationality or religion.                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Thats a nice story, thank you for sharing it. Some people are unthankful and do not appreciate someones efforts, but God always appreciates good doings.

Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan, which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply many times? It is Allah that giveth (you) Want or plenty, and to Him shall be your return. - 2:24

God bless!
-Thomas

Dear readers and writers,

thanks for sending me your prayers.

For all new readers: you can contact me by sending an e-mail to praying-service@gmx.net
Keep in mind there is the option to send me an encrypted mail too (i posted my public key on the first post).

I am doing this out of good will to help people and the wish to raise attention to the subject "praying".
There is no hook attached to this service.  Wink

Always remember, its best to pray yourself, but having someone to pray for you additionally is fine too.  Smiley

God bless!
-Thomas

Dear fellow readers,

i have answered many e-mails in the last time and want to thank everyone for getting in contact with me.
It's nice where some conversations lead to, this community is really nice.

As always, the subjects will be included into my prayers.

May God protect you all.
Even the one who downvoted my trading-trust without ever trading with me.
If you want to reach out for some words about God and the world you are welcome to contact me in a way you feel comfortable with (of course this offer is up for everyone).

Kind regards,
Thomas

On that note:

I'll guarantee entry to the heavens for a noble fee  Smiley

Please read carefully; this is a free service.

Why is this thread still open seriously ?

As this is a serious thread there is no reason to close it.

I wonder how many notices you have by your bed side  Roll Eyes

There are more than you might think although not all are related to the prayerservice.  Smiley

9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens when the price of Bitcoin falls below the cost of mining? on: December 17, 2018, 01:24:05 AM
Since there are people with free electricity there will always be someone who will be able to profit through mining.
Just those who pay for power will have hard times.

I just send you the email requesting that you pray for me. I will pray for you too. I think is a nice thing from your part. God Exists, the power of pray exists...

God exists without any questions.He is a creator full of infinite love and wisdom.
I already read your mail and spoke a prayer. Glad you appreciate my little service. Thank you for including me into your prayers aswell. That really means a lot to me.

Plus electricity cannot be stored.

FYI:
Electricity can be stored,

1. Batteries
2. Flywheels
3. Gravitational potential energy using a pumped hydroelectric facility.
4. Compressed Air Energy Storage
5. Rail Energy Storage
6. Molten Salt Storage
7. Thermal Energy Storage

Reference: http://discovermagazine.com/2015/july-aug/26-power-stash

 Smiley


It should have been "electricity can not be stored in a profitable way".

None of these ways is what is considered "efficient".
It is more profitable to produce new energy instead of storing it.

14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Decentralized Vs Centralized Exchanges on: October 23, 2018, 09:17:07 PM
Decentralized Exchanges like bisq are superior, given the fact you can trade without any KYC/AML espionage and without beeing molested by sudden freezing of funds.
The only downside is liquidity and this will be solved with more users.
15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin & Electricity: Threat or Blessings on: October 23, 2018, 09:11:49 PM
Considering how much energy the whole banking system of fiat-currencies uses, the amount bitcoin needs is more than fair.
If we think further in an idealistic way and consider a widespread replacement of fiat throuh crypto in the next decades, there will be even less energy needed.

In this context, the idea of proof-of-capacity (PoC) is also an interesting thing, as it already offers the technology without waiting.

Dear readers, writers and senders of prayers,

e-mails have bee read and prayers will be spoken.
Thanks for entrusting me with your prayers!

May the creator of heaven and earth guide us well.

Psalm 119:76
May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to your servant.




Since this post is posted on "Bitcointalk" at the services board, maybe this is crypto related. Have you have in mind to conduct an ICO with it? To have a praying platform on the blockchain with your prayers accessible to everyone by looking up it's hash?
Sounds cool right?

While it sounds interesting, there are currently no plans to initiate an ICO.
I prefer to view the prayers in my e-mail client or on printed paper. Smiley


email sent , i need to try out this kind of service because i  think that my own prayers are not yet answered by god .  would like to donate you soon , if ever  i have some cash .



Recieved your mail and spoke a prayer for you. Unlike this forum, i check the mails regularly. Wink
I appreciate your will to donate in future.

Since you said that this service is currently free and for donations, why 1 BTC is still included? Maybe you should post some proofs that you are really praying them. May I ask if you have specific religion?
I am not religious but I beleieve in God, I may not regularly go to church but I have my own way how to speak to Him.

This service is free and donations are welcome, this is correct. There are people who write to me nearly every day which is totally fine as they use this service exactly as it is intended.
The 1 BTC lifetime-praying-service is a seperate offer which is also available to everyone who desires.

May i ask you what kind of proof you would like to have for praying? You might be interested in how this service works, so let me explain. In simple words, you write me an e-mail with the subject "PRAYERSERVICE" and tell me what you want me to pray for. Typical requests are health, wealth, luck, love,... but there are also more individual things people want me to pray for, i have an open ear for whatever is desired.
After reading the e-mails of the prayingservice, i go to bed. Even if i do not recieve any e-mails i still do my prayers regardless. If i got some e-mails i include the subjects of them into the prayers aswell.
As i dont get any foreseeable (financial!) profit from this but provide a free service which i run in my free time it should be more credible this is done with honest intention. I believe this is a good thing.

While it seems there are many religions, actually there is only one God, the one, the almighty, the one who created everything we know. I am confident there is only 1 God and i am thankful he had patience with me for such a long time (you might have read i was an atheist for long time, since my childhood). So i can't answer your question in the way, you might have hoped i will answer it, but i hope you still understand what i mean.

While many people visit church for religious reasons, its definitely not the only way to show God your trust, submission and love. Telling me you have "your own way of speaking to Him" is exactly what is considered a prayer for me. A prayer comes from the deepest place in your soul and goes directly to God.
So i would consider you religious indeed. Smiley

Dear yuno,

i will include a general prayer for your father into my routine.
I don't pray for religions but for people so it is no problem if you are Buddhist.
Siddhartha Gautama was searching for God's glory aswell and he found it, reaching enlightenment. He thought people about his findings and thus can be seen as a messenger of God aswell.

May God guide us all well!
