@Jojothegoodperson@freespeechextremist.com Nice! 😎 Good to switch it up a bit

@thor@mstdn.social @Mitsu Yep. Very true.

For most, a study Bible is sufficient. It will contain a succinct sentence or two at the bottom of the page offering clarity on any given passage.

@OrganicNectar96@mstdn.social 😂 YOOOO I wanna see the footage that guy recorded SHOWING the cameraman without a mask.

@Jojothegoodperson@freespeechextremist.com Not particularly. You were online today and you seem well to me. Everyone takes breaks from social media every once in awhile.

Are you doing alright over there?

So Twitter labels @realdonaldtrump tweets about voter fraud (which DOES happen) as misinformation...

But let’s Chinese Communist propaganda roll free - no fact checks - on the social network.

@thor@mstdn.social @Mitsu P.S. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that there are multiple online sites you can use if you want to see what the Scriptures have to say on a certain subject. However, none of them are as helpful as a concordance, in my view.

openbible.info
www.gotquestions.org

Hmm. It seems like what you're talking about is a combination of a Concordance and a Commentary.

A Concordance is is sort of like an index of the Bible, which also includes alternate translations of various works from the original text. This would help you find passages about marriage.

A Commentary has interpretations of biblical texts. Of course, the content will change based on which scholar wrote the commentary, but these generally tend to help with interpreting certain passages. What I use for my daily devotions at the moment is John MacArthur's Study Bible. I read my Bible on a , that version is cheaper:

smile.amazon.com/NKJV-MacArthu

smile.amazon.com/MacArthur-Stu

But another thing that can be helpful sometimes, if you really wanna get into it, is to gather together multiple commentaries and sources together. Nobody's perfect when it comes to biblical interpretation, and sometimes one scholar will catch something the other will miss.

> Early Christians didn't call themselves such. They saw themselves as Jews, and wanted the Israelites to come around to their viewpoint, but they mostly didn't. Their timeline wasn't continued by a sequel.

This is indeed true. The Jews that do not adhere to the New Testament felt that Jesus being deity was blasphemy and did not embrace the concept in the Trinity.

> if it is indeed a chronology, this is obviously a mistake.

It's not a strict chronology, but it's certainly a historical book, and the New Testament does indeed proceed the Old.

@lumeinshin @theblessing @endlessmike @meowski @realcaseyrollins This is why you never Apple phone. They have good proprietary support but the second you leave the most normie district of normieville you’re fucked.

It's clear that when Gab forked their frontend from Mastodon, they made absolutely no attempt to understand the code they were working with. Their solution was instead to steamroll over it. This is why I feel confident about slowly evolving soapbox-fe to look more similar to their current version rather than forking at a later point. Nearly done with some edits that will fix a whole category of issues.

@commandlinekid @4hh3h3h3h33hb2 @lnxw37a2 Hmm. Not sure about the "messing with out brains" part, but it's kinda nice to not be nailed down to a particular location in order to use the internet or technology.

Politicians all over the world lie 24-7. Why is it only one of them gets fact-checked on Twitter. 🤔

@cantinto @IceWolf @stolas because scopes are confusing, don't work properly, break things, give false sense of security and overall pretty much fucking broken and a bad idea in general.

I can elaborate but it will take several hours and several tomes of "All that hog wash (by me)" of text.
