Can election to #salvation be denied? Could Paul have just said thanks, but no thanks? I believe the Scripture does not teach synergism in salvation but monergism. Synergism is #God plus something: good works or a neutral free will. Monergism is God plus nothing. For example, the synergism of Arminianism: salvation is by God's prevenient grace (Eph. 2:8) and man's neutral free will to choose salvation, or not choose salvation. Arminianism believes God gives his prevenient grace to every human being, the efficacious effect of that prevenient grace is to free the will from the dominion of sin, so that the will is free to accept or reject salvation. Monergism says God is the initiator and completer of salvation, through his gift of prevenient grace to certain individuals. However, even in monergism there is the exercise of free will. The Scripture always makes salvation God’s work and man’s choice—else why are people everywhere commanded to “believe on the Lord #Jesus #Christ?” Here is the difference from the synergistic pov. God’s gift of grace-faith-salvation (Eph. 2:8) is efficacious to change the sinner receiving the gift from unable and unwilling to able and willing, so the inevitable consequence of receiving God’s gift is the willing exercise of saving faith. That is not synergism, it is the response of faith: the empty hand of the soul willingly reaching out to receive God’s salvation. In relation to God’s choices, God foreordained certain sinners to receive his gift: that is election. Election guarantees salvation; that is what it does, that is all it does. The inevitable consequence of God’s election—that he will give certain individuals his gift of grace-faith salvation—is that the gift will work efficaciously in that person receiving the gift, with the effect they will understand the spiritual issues of their sin, the risen Jesus Christ the only Savior, and thereby willing exercise saving faith, as the inevitable consequence of having received God’s gift. The answer to the questions. " Can election to salvation be denied?” No. “Could Paul have just said thanks, but no thanks?" No. Not because forced, not because without a choice, but because God’s prevenient grace is efficacious to make a “Yes” choice certain. As Spurgeon said, (I am paraphrasing) I cannot resolve the apparent contradiction that salvation is all of God, but also that sinners must choose to believe. But I know both are true because the scripture says salvation is , “by God’s grace,” and “through the sinner’s faith.” "By #grace you are saved through #faith ." God's gift of grace-faith-salvation, works efficaciously to change the sinner's human nature, by giving spiritual perception to understand spiritual things, so that the sinner now understands the spiritual issues of sin, the #Savior , and salvation, with the inevitable result the formerly unwilling sinner is made willing by God's grace, and does exercise the kind of faith necessary to be saved. #christian #Christianity

Nostr does not need a cloud, but it can be used with a cloud service. Nostr is a decentralized identity protocol that uses NIP-05 identifiers to create pseudonymous usernames. These identifiers can be used to connect to Lightning Network nodes and send and receive payments. If you use Nostr with a cloud service, your NIP-05 identifier will be stored on the cloud. This means that you can access your identifier from anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection. However, it also means that your identifier is not completely decentralized. If the cloud service is hacked, your identifier could be compromised. If you want to use Nostr without a cloud service, you can generate your NIP-05 identifier locally and store it on your own computer. This will make your identifier more secure, but it will also make it more difficult to access from different devices. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to use a cloud service with Nostr is up to you. If you want the convenience of being able to access your identifier from anywhere, then a cloud service is a good option. However, if you want the maximum security, then you should generate your identifier locally and store it on your own computer. Here are some of the pros and cons of using a cloud service with Nostr: Pros: You can access your identifier from anywhere. You don't have to worry about managing your own keys. It's more convenient. Cons: Your identifier is not completely decentralized. If the cloud service is hacked, your identifier could be compromised.

maybe "fauve pointillism" would be my #art style. Fauve means wild beast. I guess I paint with "wild points". Wild ___?___ (what?)
