@Kballen I’m a little late, but hopefully not by too much.

Welcome to KP! I hope you enjoy it here!

What’s your favorite food?

@raevynstar Hi! Welcome to our realm!

SCIENCE FICTION! Finally, someone else who writes sci-fi! Do you have a WIP?

@jess-penrose
Well, in my opinion, I wouldn’t use the Message bible because even though it is an easier version to read and uses more colloquial terms, it isn’t necessarily doctrinely ‘sound’. One verse that is extremely important to us as Christians is this “Before Abraham was, I Am.” This clearly states that Jesus is God, very important to…[Read more]

Hey, Xonos. I can’t do Harry Potter either. So, YOU ARE NOT ALONE MY FRIEND!!!!

@rolena-hatfield No problem. I don’t really want to leave this lovely place….
@aratrea I was wondering if I should’ve asked you.

@the-real-kapeefer Dude? Seriously? Don’t do that to me again. I wrote a page long rant on why not to use the message bible because of you. 😛
Ah well. I was able to apply my biblical doctrine class to all this, sooo…

And can I please point out that one verse.

John 1:14 rewrite : “The word became flesh and blood and moved into the neighborhood.”
XD

@joy-schmidt Hey! Another thing I just thought of today… you know how you like to be satisfied, and how finishing the planning does that for you. Well, my ultimate satisfaction from writing is word count. I’ve been keeping a journal of how many words I’ve written for each of my writing sessions, and keeping track of how many words a day I write…[Read more]

“The Message is not a translation, nor can it strictly be said to be a paraphrase of the original languages of the Bible.” gotquestions.org

Before I go on a rant of my opinions of the Message bible… @rolena-hatfield Does it go against the forum rules to talk about this? Rule one, to be exact? I just want to make sure…

@jess-penrose Agreed. KJV is accurate, and although no extremely literal to the Greek, it is still as we say, accurate. I use ESV and KJV and NKJV, and although they aren’t the same, they are all correct in biblical doctrine.
@the-real-kapeefer

Oh, and also, a few differences in the wording of a section of the bible does not change the story.

@the-real-kapeefer

@the-real-kapeefer Nooo… You do know that the KJV is one of the most accurate and to-the-text-bible translations we have, right?

Hey, Xonos! I’ve been on Aetherlight all day, and I just now remembered, “Hey! Xonos joined KP today!”

HOW DID I MISS THIS?!??!?!?!

And thank you, @Daughteroftheking for not pouncing on him. He might have Blaze-caned you.

If you guys like Xonos’ work, you should check out Aetherlight Origins!! It is…*searches for right words* I can’t think…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 If you want action stories, go the Bible. 😀 We did Judges a few summers ago in my youth group, and I’m glad we did. 🙂

@the-real-kapeefer He’s not made up or fake. He was a real judge in the book of Judges, that God used to save His people from oppression.

Judges 3:14-23
So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a…[Read more]

@daeus Yes, but you’re not saying that writing is a drudgery are you? A hobby can be hard and still fun at the same time.

@joy-schmidt I don’t really know what to say. The other two Chosen Ones seem to be a bit more knowledgeable than I am. However, if you’re satisfied with you’re plot, then I’d try writing the first few chapters, and see if you…[Read more]

@amy-l-klob Well, the name Dragon Snapper doesn’t come from a story I’m writing. Just a matter of everyday life. 😀
Eek. Don’t worry; I’m American!

@epicaddie2 No, don’t worry. I’m with you, although I’m right-handed. (tell Daniel about the judge Ehud from Judges!)
@the-real-kapeefer I have my ways. *shrugs rather nonchalantly* I’d like to see you try. Now be nice.
