This past Sunday, we didn’t even have a sermon because our pastor felt God lead him to not do so even though he wanted to preach so bad!

What did you do then?? 🤣 Not to be that terrible person, but maybe he forgot his sermon notes…? Or was tired?

That probably sounds so rude of me since I don’t know him 😅

Thanks y’all! I’m feeling okayish enough to read these posts, at least.

@thearcaneaxiom

I’ve seen mostly non-denoms and Pentecostals… but I haven’t asked a lot of people. I know @godlyfantasy12 has some interesting Pentecostal views but I don’t think she would want a conversation about it.

we’re independent, and that means our beliefs are p…

I am interested in this and I was ready to talk. Alas, I caught a nasty bug ten minutes after my last comment – no joke, I felt it wash over me super quickly – and I have a tendency to stay up all night whenever I’ve caught something.

Sooo I’ve been up for more than twenty-four hours…[Read more]

@theducktator

Yeah, I hear that term a lot too… I think it means the leader of the youth group? Although I wouldn’t call our leader a pastor, by any means. He never had to study for it.

My dad is the only pastor, besides a couple retired guys who fill in now and then. What about your church?

@anyoneandeveryoneunderthesun

Oh my laaaand y’all, I forgot.

Does anyone want to match their character with Marcel? He certainly doesn’t need a date and I can almost guarantee he will not have romantic intentions. But he’s free if anyone wants him. Especially since so many characters have been introduced in the past and most don’t have a smooth…[Read more]

@rae

XD He’s nothing if not a fair player. Let the blame go where it is due.

@theducktator

She fixed the posting problems, but I think she forgot about the pics and I’m too nervous to ask 😥

The whole lot of y’all are pastor kids, that’s awesome! Do your Dads study ancient Hebrew, modern, or both?

Whoops, forgot about this! My dad studies at least ancient Hebrew to my knowledge 🙂 Yeah, it’s awesome and… interesting XD I’ll cause trouble in my friend group and they’re like, “ain’t you the pastor kid???”

@thearcaneaxiom

I’d also like to ask, can you give me your own summary of what you believe, belonging to the Latter-Day Saints? I have a limited knowledge of what y’all believe, and I would like to hear it from your point of view.

@thearcaneaxiom

So why is there so much open endedness, and contradiction though? Even if you could explain away every contradiction, like the one about the staffs, isn’t the mere fact that we need to in the first place a bit odd for something that is meant to be perfect and God breathed in every word? Could you show me that the Bible also e…

I have thoughts 😝 But I need to take a shower first, so like, don’t drive y’all’s trains into walls while I’m gone

@rae

So, Chase has two book ideas rolling around… Then that would make The Shyiad kinda like an origin story, explaining the second.

Aaah, got it! Makes sense!!

Yeah, don’t blaim you. The Shyiad is kinda just a coming of age fantasy while the Black Wolf is kinda cryptid genre. And I personally find cryptid stories often go too far.

I don’t mind…[Read more]

@theducktator

Yes, I most certainly am! PASTOR KIDS ROCK

Jkjk, the rest of y’all are great 😆

And I agree, the extra translations in footnotes are super helpful.

@trailblazer

On the subject of extra scripture… I don’t want to depend on just other people for an understanding on this, but I know a lot of Hebrew and Greek reading pastors and a couple professors.

As my dad explained it, they have studied these other books, and they simply don’t look like Biblical works. It’s kind of like being an artist…[Read more]

@trailblazer

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]

@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]

Cmoooon

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]
