It’s an important question

@power

The theif on the cross didn’t need to be baptized. Even in modern day, we don’t convict someone for things that where done before a law was passed.

I’m… prrreeEtty dArn certain Jesus’ words on that cross are still relevant today.

Jesus’ disciples taught, and we listen to them, but they were originally taught by Jesus. I trust in His cho…[Read more]

James 2:26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

Hebrews 11:8 NIV — By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.

Hebrews 11:17 NIV — By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son,

None of the above verses (Romans 6:4-5, 1 Peter 3:21, and Mark 16:16) where written or had even been spoken, when the thief on the cross died.

Cain wasn’t put to death for killing his brother, because he was before Genesis 9:6 “Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made m…[Read more]

In fact, I think 1 Peter 3:21 perfectly juxtaposes the physical and spiritual aspects of this topic

Plus, given God emphasizes our inability to save ourselves with deeds in the physical ream, it would be kinda weird for him to say “focus on Jesus alone, and your spirit will be saved” and then say “mkay but you have to get physically baptized or else you’re in trouble.” I believe in baptism as part of the salvation process, but I think the giving…[Read more]

Sorry for butting in, just found the passage because I was discussing this same topic with a friend, and here it is. This is the ESV.

Luke 23:32-33. Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him. And when they came to the place that is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on his…

. . . It sounds good and would be comforting, but is that what the Bible says?
None of the above verses where write or had even spoken, when the thief on the cross died.
I will admit that I have not spent much time studying what the Bible says about the unborn. Do you have any Bible for that? I know that Psalm 51:5-6 has some…[Read more]

Mark 16:16 ESV — Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

1 Peter 3:21 — Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

Romans 6:4-5 NIV — We we…[Read more]

Ugh, y’all. I was listening to an audiobook version of The Guardian by Dee Henderson, and the reader’s voice got stuck in my head. Now whenever I read anything–and I mean literally anything–I hear it in this low, slightly gravely, male voice. Even my thoughts are getting half drawled.

The book was good. The reader I wish I could live without.

ALSO SHOOT! I ACCIDENTALLY SKIPPED Koshka’s REPLY!!!!!!!!! SORRY! I WILL GET TO IT AFTERWARD!

You’re fine. XD I’m obviously not excessively active on KP right now (Ellette and Whalekeeper are currently conducting my funeral, LOL).

KP’s also been giving me fits, so I’m giving you a heads up that I may be a while checking back h…[Read more]

I am one of them. 😉
What if the name (singular) of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit was Jesus?
What if the name of the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace was Jesus?
What if the LORD JEHOVAH wasn’t just my strength and my song, but he also is become my Yeshua?
What if there was only…[Read more]

The worst part is, the character is super fun to write. I could have just killed off a stereotypically ‘good’ character, but it had to be the fun one. I’m so tempted to bring them back, even though it’s against my no-artificial-second-coming policy.

There’s a character I’ve really got to kill, but I really don’t want to.

Contrary to popular writer tradition, I’m not just killing them off because it’s more emotional, it’s legitimately required for the plot to work. Pain.

@godlyfantasy12

Hey girl! Sorry I couldn’t chat last time :] I’m here now because I have a paper to write off and on tonight.

@the_lost-journal

You should be fine! I’ve heard that name in other books and projects. Unless it seems like a name with too much of a pop culture association (like Elvis or Hermione, or whatever), there’s no reason not to use it.

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon

Ooops……..

Ugh. If any of y’all decide to write a “good twin/evil twin” trope (and I don’t care if it is well done or not at this pount) you will be getting a letter from me. I’ve been asked that stupid question a few too many times, as well as it’s frustrating cousin “who’s the mean/nice one?”. If one of y’all pick it up, prepare for Koshka to be severely…[Read more]

Vyette, what does a normal morning look like for you? Does your family allow you to make important decisions yet?

Barnes, what is your most embarrassing moment?
