@salome01w4g @amy-l-klob Aha, I was going to suggest you talk to Hannah. Her story sounds really cool. I don’t know much about the american revpolution but I love reading and writing stories set in WW1. Hannah had started a hf thread but I don’t think we got very far. However, if we have one more hf writer to join our ranks…

@jess (are you doing inktober and if you are, will you share your art with us?)

@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]

@kate-flournoy @daeus @perfectfifths thanks for the answers guys!!

“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…

@the-real-kapeefer No. It was never intended to be a translation. Look in the front of it. Eugene Peterson never intended it to be seen as such. You may be confused by thinking that the word, “Literal” means, “Simple” but it does not. Literal means accurate and Eugene Peterson made it clear the it was not translated from the Greek, Hebrew, or…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper thanks for the ideas…I think I just need to start the story and see where it goes. I have awesome ideas but I rarely get them onto paper; however, for some reason I feel differently about this story. I’ll give it a go sometime this week! (I hope…)

@jess-penrose and @dragon-snapper It is totally a translation of the Bible, I have checked and it is very accurite.

@koryn-koch Wow you guys got second place in one out of the eleven different speech categories. Oh yeah, real life issues that are total practical for your everyday life like how the US should change in regards to China. I have…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Indeed. Hence I learn my Bible verses direct from there most of the time. *Shrugs* But then again, the Holy Spirit will tell you things in many ways. Even reading fiction, biographies, or absolutely anything. God will get His message across.
@the-real-kapeefer

@xonos-darkgrate so, des that in your mind mean that God loves us one on one? Does that mean that He is a kind ruler? Or does that mean He is our friend and constant companion?

*Nods* However, that answer was good, I will stop my probing for a while now.

@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

@the-real-kapeefer NONONONO! Please be joking. The Message isn’t a translation. It is a guide that is NOT meant to be used as a translation. And personally I would say that KJV is accurate, but confusing, and I would cross reference between KJV, ESV, and NIV.

@xonos-darkgrate Ah, right. Well, you’ve probably gathered that they are nothing alike, but another site that is a bit better than Wattpad is Sweek? It isn’t Christian, but is not as, well, dodgy as Wattpad. I’m on both as J.A.Penrose. So, if you need a Christian around, I’m there.

*Nods* A good answer. But is living for Christ what he desired?…[Read more]

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?

What’s the point of the game? @xonos-darkgrate
