28.01.2026 03:11 β π 77 π 5 π¬ 2 π 0Itβs entirely possible to share your faith without ever once shouting at strangers in the street or preaching to a captive audience who didnβt choose to be there for that.
Itβs entirely possible to βmake disciplesβ and lead others to Christ without pushing your beliefs at those who didnβt ask. /1
Waitβ¦you endorse that Iβm not really that funny?????

Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

But never ever trust her.
Sheβs not trying to βhelpβ.

Please remember there were others before Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Theyβve killed 9 in this first month of the year.

This is like helping to lay the wood, adding your portion of the gasoline being pored all over it, and then screaming βBe careful! Someone has a matchβ.
You helped with the inciting.
The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE
I think itβs absolutely implied in the passage that βthe sheepβ are defined not by ethnicity, religious identity or even βbeliefβ but by their actions. Earlier in Matthewβs account (chapter 7) Jesus says specifically βNot all who say βLord, Lordβ will enter the kingdom of heaven.β
27.01.2026 14:14 β π 11 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0My favourite part of the sheep and goats passage is that even the sheep ask βWhen did we see you hungry, naked or in prison and take care of you?β
So even the βrighteousβ arenβt doing the right thing to score points with the Lord. They simply do it because they want to care for their neighbour.
That viral video is NOT a video of Alex Prettiβs body being saluted by staff he worked with. His body has not yet been released. This video is from 2021. Please stop circulating it. Misinformation is unhelpful regardless of which βsideβ is posting it.

Kidding. I know what it means.

Itβs like God only letting Moses see his back and not his face.
Too much glory all at once could be blinding.
Did I also mention my admirable humility????
And yes I have a parishioner who would really prefer to be a southern Baptist who has said all of those things to me.

And that is why we must call it Resurrection Sunday and never Easter so the pagan demons canβt infiltrate our worship. π
Iβm neither as funny nor as grumpy in real life as I appear to be on Bluesky.
Just wanted to be transparent.
Yeah Iβm looking forward to the annual βEaster is just a Germanic pagan goddess!β posts.

And yes, I know theyβd completely ignore all of that.
Haha. I love Dan. But yesβ¦.one influencerβs reels isnβt going to give them the breadth of scholarship they appear to be assuming with that βlet me explain to youβ attitude.
27.01.2026 02:40 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The irony is that Christian Nationalists love the prophetic books of scripture like Revelation, yet the entire point of that book is that the One who overcomes the Beast and the Dragon and all the violent forces of domination, is the Lamb, who conquered by giving his own life, not taking others.
