Stepheroni and Cheese

@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]

@whalekeeper

😭Noooooooo! Has anyone tagged Kathleen about this yet?

@whalekeeper

My dad knows both Hebrew and Greek! He always goes back to the source when writing a sermon.

Oh, are you a pastor’s kid too? My dad knows some Hebrew and Greek, but I don’t think he’s fluent.

So the best choice of action is to find all translations of a particular text and use other, clearer texts to fill in the context. 🙂

I use an…[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]

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…[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]

@rae

Aw, my grandpa has similar issues 😟 Hoping for a steady recovery <3

@rae

Lol, I’ve seen that video before

Sebastian

Chase meant to bolt, but the teacher gave an unfazed crook of the brow. With a sweep of the room, he gripped Dante and Seb’s arms with one hand, and Ellie and Eddie’s sweater scruffs in the other.

He nodded at Chase. “In the front, boy. Where I can see ya.”

Chase walked as if blinded…[Read more]

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]

@rae

I’ll be praying as well! 💕🙏
