Blondie, to answer your 2019 question - it was recently pointed out to me that the same God which has the power to condemn me will also be arguing my case for me (see Micah 7:9). That is an image that provides great assurance for those hidden in Christ. I now have Micah 7:7-9 on my list to memorize!

Perhaps some small plant life similar to what we know as plankton today (though plankton today also consists of some things that could be considered animal life).

Going to back to our conversation earlier, what do you think animals in the water ate in the Garden of Eden?
for

The Israelites were like that. I think we are like that today in some ways.
well I read through the book of hosea recently and I learnt that Israel kept wandering away from God and so God would judge them and then there would be a remnant that would repent and God would rescue them.

Hello. I don't use groups to memorize because I have a lot of verses to memorize for school and AWANA.
let’s see how long it will take anyone to answer me. Then we will really know the state of this “group”
also what percentage does everyone set their review to? I set mine to 96% in order to account for me pressing the wrong button a few times lol.
how’s everyone going with getting their bible verses up to a few months for review?

ahhh it doesn’t really bother me either way right now anyway.

for
🦌🏹CRoss

Prayed

I certainly could be mistaken because some of the details may not have been of importance to be included in The Word, but I don’t think it has any theological significance really, just posing a trivia question 😀. If any part of that is significant, it may be that we know there was no sin in the world before Gen 3, and so there was no death either. Without death, we would be eating only plants. The fall had far reaching implications which we still deal with today, and thank The Lord he provided a just justifier for us or we would all suffer death twice!
I think what CRoss is saying is more exact word for word.
I’m really not 100% sure on this one. In one way gen 1:30 sounds like you can eat anything but if you read it another way it sounds like what CRoss is saying...
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
Ducky, God says in Gen 1:29-30 that humans and animals were to eat plants. I only see clean animals in 7:2, but nothing about being able to eat them at that time. If they could eat animals before Gen 9:3, I don’t think God would have said all plants and animals are now okay for eating.
for
Scripture Blondie
I
Prayed
AMEN!
hmm I'd have to agree with that
Like in Genesis 7:2 God told Noah to bring aboard seven pairs of any animal that he had approved of eating. if you read the whole verse, it makes it sound like he had already approved multiple types of animals for eating.
Does it say in the bible that humans only ate fruit and veggies before the ark?
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
To your point Stuart, there were later prohibitions on which meat was “clean” that was then removed in Acts, I believe...
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
Genesis 9:3, when Noah came out of the ark. Before that it was just the veggies! “Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.”
Do you mean which book of the bible or the specific verse that he said that? (either way I’m not sure)

Trivia question: At what point did God first say we could eat duck??
for

Mmm. You can eat duck. I found that if you marinate it in some peanut oil and cook it on the grill it tastes like a fantastic steak! Who knew?!
that’s ok. You can eat duck

I just watched the movie “American Gospel: Christ Alone” and it was incredible!! If you know anyone caught in the word of faith movement or prosperity gospel movement, it would be great to share with them. Very well put together and has you loving Jesus more at the end like a good church service!
oh wow! that is fantastic! would love to know what he thinks.

ooh that'd be awesome! it'd be nice to know what someone with a PhD in that stuff would say!
for
Loved by Jesus
I
Prayed

Ok, my dad actually has a PhD in biblical languages and bible translation. So when he preaches sermons or writes papers he just translates the verses straight from the original language. Sometimes when I want to know more about a verse or am confused about a word I'll ask him and he'll get out his Greek bible and give me the literal translation of it. That is really neat! Tonight at supper, I'll ask him what version of the Bible he thinks is best and then y'all can have his opinion. 😊
for
Scripture Blondie
I

Most definitely, Blondie! Praise God for His preservation of His Word (Matthew 24:35).
for
Scripture Blondie
I
Prayed
AMEN!
that's true, CRoss, I doubt God expects us to learn Greek and Hebrew and only read the originals! 😂 however, and I'm sure you'd agree, there are some OBVIOUS mistranslations
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
The ESV and CSB are both considered formal/functional equivalents of the original text and I personally am comfortable with both, but we all should study the issue of translations for ourselves to make sure we are reading what God intended. It’s tough to get any good info from the internet since everyone has a bias, and even then all translations come from one or more ancient texts which some people also have a bias on. Since I can’t read all of the ancient texts in Greek or Hebrew, I just have to do the best I can and realize no text will be accepted by all!
for
Scripture Blondie
I
Prayed
AMEN!
hm that's cool! honestly I don't think I've heard of the CSB? but yeah with the ESV thing I'm not completely sure. that's just what I've heard 🙂
for
Loved by Jesus
I
Prayed
AMEN!
I did not know that about the ESV. That would concern me too. I am kinda of new to reading different Bible versions, my church is KJV only (though my family is not) and I have always read KJV until a few months ago. I am reading CSB and I am loving it! I understood the KJV well since I am a good reader, but I am still amazed at how much more I am getting out of my Bible by reading it in a modern translation.
for
Scripture Blondie
I
Prayed
AMEN!
@Cross and loved by Jesus that's kind of what I thought. I'm not KJV only by any means but some translations just take it a little too far. actually the ESV (the one I use) kind of concerns me a bit too in that they have to "update" it every several years 😬
for

Hey Katelyn! Great question. I would suggest all of Psalm 51 (19 total verses). You can do them one at a time, and that chapter has such great application to our everyday lives!!

I would be really careful with The Message. The Eugene Peterson more of rewrote it than translated it. He died a few weeks ago and there was an article on him in our newspaper and he had said that he would have no problem marrying a gay couple.
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
Really, the NIV is a paraphrase as well. I don’t consider myself a “translation Nazi”, but God’s Word is precious and I think it’s wise to put some thought into how the translators of our versions have preserved it.
for
🦌🏹CRoss
I
Prayed
AMEN!
Yeah, The Message Bible was written by Eugene Peterson, and he had free range to put his own theology into it. I get that some of the other translations are difficult, but I would suggest looking at his theology (just google his name) before you decide to use his bible. You can’t go wrong with a “formal equivalent” translation in my opinion, but we really should treat all others that interpret the meaning of God’s Word with caution.
for
Scripture Blondie
I
Prayed
AMEN!
hm yeah I'd stick with those versions too
for
Cøølkid
I
Prayed
AMEN!
for me I would go to NIV, NKJV, ESV, NASB translations to try and understand some verses in the context before going to the message. From what I understand the message is a paraphrase written by one person.
for

I was looking thru the posts and saw some discussion about bible versions. I wanted to share this. I am involved in a study of the book of Job. that is a hard book to read. I picked up The Message and read a chapter, then went back to my NIV version. I was able to understand it much better. I know The Message is a paraphrase and not a word by word translation but it helped me in this study. I think the poetic type of writing in Job was making my brain think each line was a sentence. in The Message the paragraph form made me see it differently.
