Thanks for the tip! It took me a bit but i think i'm starting to figure out how to use BibleHub. I've never done anything like this before. Just parallel bible reading on biblegateway. That sounds like a really interesting point to research. I've been interested in studying the bible's view on...

Wow. This is amazing i love it! Is it possible to do a word study like that with no grasp whatsoever of Hebrew or Koine Greek?

The best bible is one that you will read. I for one like the website biblegateway because it lets you read a lot of different versions! And you can even put one alongside another and compare passages. For example you can put the KJV beside the NIV and look at how they each write Genesis chapter...

Thank you. This is exactly right. This is something I’m trying to learn too, and I try to remind myself it’s between them and god but if I show them nothing but disapproval and judgement then they won’t want anything to do with my lord and savior or church of anything. They deserve to and need...

I can see the good in this, in general. Clothes and toys are too gender stereotyped. As a kid i know i would have loved to have a shirt or nightgown/dress with dinosaurs or planets and stars on it. I never liked princesses and dolls either i had toy animals and horses and dinosaurs. So i can see...

really? Do you have names or links? Cause like the OP said it’s always bugged me how much genocide is in the Old Testament. Did the Jewish people simply assume that God was backing them and write it into the scriptures? But to me that sounds like such a slippery slope...to say that ‘oh it might...

Honestly, i side with the school's decision. I don't know the context for why they decided to even fly the pride flag to begin with. I assume its so those students feel safe and accepted at school? Idk. I don't really care - even if it goes against God's will, it might do a gay or trans kid some...

Especially if it relates to my current struggle with same-sex attraction, but anything is welcome. I've been especially interested in the spiritual or allegorical interpretations of Genesis 1-11. Even if you interpret it literally, i feel like there's a whole lot of depth you can get from...

Thank you everyone :sparklingheart: I am so happy that i have been so warmly welcomed here. I was scared. Thank you so much for your words of encouragement and advice. I feel reassured that i'm on the right path.

Hello everyone, my name is Ashley. I'm 23 and i'm struggling with my homosexuality at the moment. Have been ever since i realized no i'm not just really 'asexual' if you will (wasn't interested in dating or looking at men at all) but gay. I went to google to try to understand myself and of...
