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…

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…

I’m technically a PK, too, but my dad’s role is missions pastor, so he’s not usually doing the preaching.

And thanks for adding your thoughts!

@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…

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]

Agreed!

@freed_and_redeemed

It was just one source, but I’m going to do some more research to see if there’s validity to it. Johnny Enlow brought it up in the midst of a discussion on the ElijahStreams show. He doesn’t usually just share things like that unless he’s done a good amount of research, but I still want to look into it more myself.

I have two quotes that are very similar, and both of mine are from Eye of the Oracle. I didn’t write down which character said them, though.

“What you have learned in the light, my friend, never doubt when it is dark.”

“It would be foolish to deny what I have learned in the light. That is the chief rule of discernment.” (I’m p…[Read more]

@trailblazer Yes, Bryan Davis is amazing!! He’s one of my favorite authors, but my top is N D Wilson. I believe the quote I have on there is from Ashley Stalworth??? But I’d have to check XD I’ve had a similar time with writing, just able to get words on one of my stories while the others are somewhat stuck. We’re super busy and I just tore a…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom @whalekeeper

I think I agree more with Whaley- I’m not questioning that what is in the Bible isn’t true or wasn’t inspired by God. Where I’ve been pondering things recently has less to do with the validity of the Scriptures themselves and more with the translation and the selection of the Scriptures. I’m just curious what caused…[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]

Oh, Sebster Gangster, never stop being who you are! XD.

I think Alpha would agree.

@whalekeeper

Is this supposed to be a later book in a series about Chase? I was under the impression his story would be in the midst of him learning about his powers, but here you’ve described him as an already established forest ranger. Would Chase have already gone through the adoption drama (I was under the impression this also would be a m…

@thearcaneaxiom

I’m not sure I really have a solid opinion on this, but it’s something I’ve been thinking about the past couple days, so I’d be interested in hearing your opinion.

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

Oh and the link’s not working for me. It’s not even showing up as a link. :/ Did you use the link button at the top of the post box? I’ve used that before and it works fine. I just type whatever text I want, highlight it, press the link button, then insert the url into the small box they give me.

@kyronthearcanin

Hey!!

ooh, how is YDubs? I’ve been looking into it recently and it looks really cool. I’m just not sure if I want to spend the money on it or not.

I’m doing pretty good! Life is going. Writing’s been sort of meh lately. My main WIP is falling flat rn, so I’ve been trying to think of how to push through that writer’s block, but…[Read more]
