Otherworldly Historian

Hello!

I’m the Arcane Axiom. I love math, searching for divine fundamental truth, and exploring that in my writing. I read/write sci-fi/fantasy, and I’m currently working on a universe with my sister called the Sceptrum.

Questions!

What is your favorite genre?

Do you have any projects? What are they about?

Any primary interests or goals wit…[Read more]

Here’s the thing about being Non-Denominational…you kinda agree with various denominations 😂

See, the pastor of my church was raised Baptist but became Pentacostal through the influence of his wife (who was raised Pentecostal) and together they started a Non-Denominational church.

So yes, I do identify with some Pen…

@freed_and_redeemed

So your sounding more and more Pentecostal to me Freedom, would you say you identify with that at all? Pentecostals main deal is always seeking to be in attunement with the Holy Spirit, acting purely with His will, letting your own will go. Essentially if it feels right, it is right type stuff.

I honestly like Pentecostals,…[Read more]

Sorry Y’all, disappeared for a bit.

@freed_and_redeemed

Ty for understanding and for your kindness <3

I’m still here to kindly discuss things if anyone would like, just not for debate 😊

@theducktator

We believe baptism is not necessary for salvation and life in heaven, though obviously you should be baptized if at all possible. Some i…

Oh, I forgot the Anglicans! Sorry😅 I know a few Episcopos that are pretty cool. Yeah, I’ve found Anglicans interesting because they’re a unique combination of Protestant and Catholic.

My dad says Non-Denominationals are essentially Baptists by another name. XD

That’s how I’ve always understood them yeah. They just have a specific…[Read more]

@trailblazer

I would agree with you on the point of baptism. All of the examples of baptism I can think of in the Bible are adults who have chosen to believe in the Messiah.

@freed_and_redeemed

After some prayer and some reflection, I kindly request that we leave this debate where it stands.

I’ve been thinking on it too much, and truthfully g…

The Church of Latter Day Saints is the official name for Mormons, right?

That is correct. We don’t really like the nickname though, because it takes away the focus from Christ. Mormon we respect as a great prophet who compiled the plates, but this is the Lord’s church, not his.

So, does the third mean you do not agree with infant…

Ey, I can say something in a round-about way, and it can still be completely logical. But that’s beside the point. I can’t see how any of those “contradictions,” as you put it, discard the infallibility of those passages’ meanings. If the different disciples wrote Jesus’ words with slightly different grammar, that is a matter of m…

@whalekeeper

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

See you then!

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

@freed_and_redeemed

But if their hands wrote mistakes/faults, then how can we know it’s true? If it’s possible that there are many, many mistakes in the Bible simply because it was written by man, then why not deny every bit of Scr…

@theducktator

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 is spelled two different ways in the Old…

@whalekeeper

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 that have open-ended statements, or use a less conventional way of explaining som…

@trailblazer

You’re both mistaking what I’m saying though. I’m not questioning if scripture is inspired by God either, I’m just open to the idea that scripture is written by imperfect hands, and therefore even when inspired by an infallible God, can be mistaken in some ways. Why do we have many gospels of Christ’s life instead of 1? Why do they…[Read more]

@trailblazer

No worries! I’m glad you here though!

@whalekeeper

I think this is what most would say yeah.

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

For me, I’m not taking the parts I like the best, I think that we need to consider all scriptures as the word of God, but I simply don’t think we can say that…[Read more]

Anyone want to discuss the idea of infallibility? I’d like to challenge the notion as a whole.

@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.

@esther-c

Totally okay! I get you😂 I haven’t RPed in like… *mentally calculates, and gives up because of my awful concept of time* at least a month or something

And if you need me to RP something random to get things started again just lemme know!

@keilah-h

Hey, I’m game for letting him have a few personalities. My characters don’t get much of a say in it lol. You could actually use some of them in your actual series if you wanted to. (I’d have to change some names first, but since you’re only taking generic personalities and not their physical form or anything, I don’t actually have to c…
