😭Noooooooo! Has anyone tagged Kathleen about this yet?

@whalekeeper

My dad knows both Hebrew and Greek! He always goes back to the source when writing a sermon.

Oh, are you a pastor’s kid too? My dad knows some Hebrew and Greek, but I don’t think he’s fluent.

So the best choice of action is to find all translations of a particular text and use other, clearer texts to fill in the context. 🙂

I use an…[Read more]

My dad knows both Hebrew and Greek! He always goes back to the source when writing a sermon. Freedom is right that there isn’t always an English equivalent, but translations usually try to find the best word/s as a replacement. Luckily that doesn’t affect the meaning of the original text, and if you can find a source of knowledge on…[Read more]

I had to google a definition of infallible for this, so hopefully I understand what you are talking about. I think that all of the stories and ideas in the Bible are true, but that there is room for error in things like spelling, and errors in translation. For example, Nebuchadnezzar…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

So here’s my question though, how do you know that scripture is infallible?

We can’t know if it is or not, besides through the faith of the Spirit. But what is the most logical option?

If you take Biblical philosophy and try to find a verse that directly contradicts it, you aren’t going to find anything more than vaguer verses t…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I personally don’t think there’s much to argue over it.

If you believe it, you believe in a so far consistent, well-logicked (lol, is that a word?) philosophy.

If you don’t believe in infallibility, then you’re taking what pieces you want as truth, and essentially creating your own philosophy. After all, there’s no reason to…[Read more]

Trying pics again (random pic I found on this device)

@rae

I’m still plotting out, but I think most of the first half will be Kat discovering Chase is the Black Wolf and thenthe second half, her helping him discover what lives in this region of the forest.

Would you want to read this (especially not knowing who Chase is?)

Ooh, interesting… I probably wouldn’t buy the book based the premise, but t…[Read more]

Aw, my grandpa has similar issues 😟 Hoping for a steady recovery <3

@rae

Lol, I’ve seen that video before

@loopylin

Sebastian

Chase meant to bolt, but the teacher gave an unfazed crook of the brow. With a sweep of the room, he gripped Dante and Seb’s arms with one hand, and Ellie and Eddie’s sweater scruffs in the other.

He nodded at Chase. “In the front, boy. Where I can see ya.”

Chase walked as if blinded…[Read more]

The Twins 

Eddie huffed.

She knew she was being difficult, but she didn’t want to cut Dante any slack. She would rather lock him in a room and set it on fire and see how he liked it.

Now that she thought about it, that would likely make his day.

She huffed again. Stupid.

She turned, stomped to one end of the room, realized…[Read more]

*accepts tissues* His poor baby.

“The Bois?” I like it. Okay, for the plot hole. Since Felix divorced Adinah on false charges of infidelity, a good reason for a divorce if it weren’t false, instead of just kicking her out, I would assume he cares about what people think of him. A wife is decently easy to get rid of without…[Read more]

@kyronthearcanin

Hey, Life has finally started winding down for me. AP tests are in a few weeks and my robotics team just finished up competing in FRC worlds last week. I’m helping out with a one act that my brother otherworldlyhistorian wrote and trying to get sleep.

@freed_and_redeemed

He could have kept them because they are his biological kids and he couldn’t bear to give them up. 🤷‍♂️

By orthodox Jewish standards though they are like fully Jews because Orthodox Judaism is matrilineal.

@kyronthearcanin

Hello!

I’m getting by lol. My life is really crazy and I’m only really online to keep up with a few friends, I think I get on about once a week or less these days, it’s a little sad. But it’s ok, I’m still drawing and writing when I’m not online. School is super busy and we’re trying to move.

How are you doing and how has ydubs…[Read more]

@keilah-h

I like how the female duck is called Serpentine, a long, majestic, complicated name (how’d she get it anyway?) and then the male duck is just Bob. Brilliant.

I named Bob when I was 8-ish, and it just stuck. As for Serpentine, Queen Natalie had a group of spy ducks that I named after rocks and minerals at one point. It has since been d…[Read more]

I read the scene you just posted and teared up. Poor Moishe.
