Trying to curate a timeline filled with Christian brothers and sisters.

If you are one of the aforementioned then I would be grateful if you followed so I can follow you back.

God bless you all. ✝️📿

@NC1stinFreedom @GingerJT1 Name one metric that has improved under Donald Trump please… inflation? Gas prices? Grocery prices? Unemployment? No new wars? Epstein files released and people convicted?

Any of those?

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Catholics, Orthodox and high Church Protestants tend to pray for unification, the poor, the homeless, the sick, the lost etc.

Low Church Protestants pray for Tommy Robinson and Donald Trump.

We are not the same.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

You don’t debate at all. You do this weird dance where you refuse to answer questions and demand the person you’re talking to adheres to your rules and when they don’t you pretend you’re a victim.

The only child here is the person having a meltdown because he can’t answer more than one question per post.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@FakeOliverQueen @IlliniGR @DefiyantlyFree See originally I was thinking the same but I’ve now got to the stage I genuinely think these people just can’t read properly.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Because you have no intention of having a coherent discussion and you either 1. Don’t know the answers or 2. Know the answers do not bode well for your stated framework.

I have a feeling you block people because you realise they will not bow down to your demands.

If you can’t answer more than one question in a reply you are in no place to make theological assertions. The questions lead on to each other and a relevant to each other. Not stand alone question.

Block if you want bud, if you block, I win.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Brother. Would you like to know why I didn’t respond to any of the questions…

Look at my post above. You engaged with zero questions (of which I asked first) and pivoted to pose your own questions.

That’s not how this works one bit. If you want your questions answered, you don’t get to ignore mine first 😂

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@Wombat11412 @Truth_matters20 Answer the questions. They lead on to each other logically.

You only think it’s childish because you know the answers strain you belief framework. 😂 just answer them. The time you spent waffling in this reply you could’ve y’know…. Just answered…

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@BrysonGray Your entire brand is built on taking verses out of context Bryson. 😂

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@DefiyantlyFree Posting Ted Talks from low church figures only serves to make you look even more silly to people who actually value history.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@NC1stinFreedom @GingerJT1 The only person “hurting” your country is the fat orange man in charge. 😂

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

So where did your bible come from bud? Who preserved it? Fallible men? Who’s to say they didn’t change it? How do you know you have Gods word and not just some book written by some men?
What was the literacy rate in the 1st century?
Did they have personal Bibles?
How was the faith passed on if they didn’t have personal Bibles?
Who were the people to pass it on? The same fallible men?

You see how your own framework doesn’t actually work here?

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Yes I know what a genitive is bud, if you look through my Greek posts you’ll see that.

Those still aren’t sources, Andrew. 😂 They’re just more of your own blog posts. You keep saying you��ve got a B.A., a language teaching license, and years working with PhD scholars, but you still haven’t shown any of it. Not one link to a degree, a school, a paper, or even a name of one of those scholars. Just “trust me, it’s on my blog.” That’s not scholarship, mate. That’s circular.

On the Greek you keep hammering Galatians 2:16… διὰ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ … ἐκ πίστεως Χριστοῦ. The genitive “Χριστοῦ” is ambiguous. It can go more than one way. Thats the point. You don’t get to declare “the KJV translated precisely what Paul wrote” and then accuse everyone else of “changing the genitive” when the Greek itself doesn’t force your English. The same verse has εἰς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐπιστεύσαμεν. Plenty of people who actually read Greek for a living land on “faith in” for good reasons. Treating that as some obvious doctrinal sabotage just shows you’re not engaging the syntax or the debate.

Same issue with Isaiah 14:12. “Lucifer” is a Latin word the KJV inherited. Modern versions translating the Hebrew more directly isn’t “changing Scripture.” It’s translating.
You keep demanding I “STUDY” and “rightly divide” while your own examples stay at the level of standard KJV only talking points and self published posts. If the linguistics and credentials are as solid as you say, show the receipts. Until then this is just more “I said so, and my blog agrees.”

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@NC1stinFreedom “Communists”… the word MAGA spews out to shut down those who disagree. 😂

Does it ever bother you that you are a literal product of propaganda?

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@FightofFaith @spiritofman90 1. Thats not worship. Thats you isolating verses to support your opinion. Words have definitions, you don’t just get to make it up.

2. None of them say attend an evangelical concert and video yourself for clicks on the internet.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@FightofFaith My favourite thing about this is you’ve posted it several times. It’s performative Christianity.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Thats the entire point i was making. If you don’t grant some form of authority to the church fathers who preserved the Books for you. Then you do not have a Bible. You cannot rubbish their interpretations and elevate your own interpretation, by your own framework, your opinion is fallible.

Now, let’s take it further. Can you read Hebrew or Greek or are you using an English translation? Why would you disregard the church figures who spoke the language the scriptures are written in when interpreting? Are you claiming they didn’t have the spirit and you do? Are you claiming they didn’t understand their own language?

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@peortega1 @Mikmag1776 Pablo ran away. He couldn’t do what was required. At no point did Irenaeus claim Mary sinned.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@peortega1 @Mikmag1776 Show me where he said Mary sinned…

Let’s see it.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

Those aren’t sources, those are your own blog posts. 😂

Theres also been several manuscripts found since the KJV translation. You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. Can we get proof of your language credentials please… we’re not just making statements without proof here.

[Darren 🇻🇦✝️ @StepsToMercy]

@RbinmanRichard @TRobinsonNewEra The difference.
