Engagement
20 posts held, back to 20 June 2021 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 16 December 2021. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Pietism is a syncretistic merger between pagan dualism and orthodox Christianity. It relies on three false dualities: 1) The duality between “spiritual” and “earthly” blessings 2) The duality between “eternal” and “temporal” life 3) The duality between “subjective & true” and “objective & false” religious experiences. Thanksgiving is the ultimate antithesis of each of pietism’s dualities. It insists we give thanks …
"Accordingly in every state sanctified to God capital punishment must be ordered for all who have dared to injure religion [Christianity], either by introducing false and impious doctrine, about the worship of God or by calling people away from the true worship of God ... for all who blaspheme the name of God and His solemn services ... who violate the Sabbath,... who rebelliously despise the authority of their paren…

The shares total 105%, above 100: this poll accepts more than one answer per voter. No per-option vote count is published, so the number of voters who chose each option is not derivable and is not shown.

Few topics engender as much outrage and hysteria as slavery, and yet on few topics is there such endemic ignorance, both on what the Bible says and on the true historical situation. Given the cultural angst surrounding this issue, it's imperative Christians have a biblical understanding of slavery. https://protestantpost.substack.com/p/the-ethics-of-slavery

Let's strengthen our pro-life stance this week by answering the other side's best points. Sharpening our case will help us better reach those Christians who don't know what to make of those tough cases. https://protestantpost.substack.com/p/answering-the-strongest-pro-abortion
A recent poll found 47% of Republicans believe the time will come when patriotic Americans will have to take the law into their own hands. Another found that more people - right and left - are considering secession. Another found that 66% of southern Republicans and 47% of west coast Democrats favor secession as well. t’s time we begin thinking through these things in a serious, deliberate manner, and what better pla…
By almost any metric, the United States government has been growing quite rapidly ever since its formation. Not only has this trend accelerated dramatically over the past few decades, it’s hit warp speed with the covid control. This has prompted many Christians to critically contemplate exactly where the limits of the civil magistrate end. https://protestantpost.substack.com/p/when-can-christians-disobey-the-governme…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @reformedtheologygroup. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Polls
The poll we hold for this entry, as Telegram rendered it when we read the post. A poll’s figures keep moving after that, so each one is dated.

The shares total 105%, above 100: this poll accepts more than one answer per voter. No per-option vote count is published, so the number of voters who chose each option is not derivable and is not shown.
Percentages only — there are no per-option vote counts here, because Telegram publishes none. The public post preview gives each option’s share and a single voter total, and nothing else. Multiplying one by the other would produce a per-option tally that looks measured and is not: the shares are rounded to whole numbers before we ever see them. We print what was published and leave the column that does not exist empty.
The shares need not add up to 100. Rounding alone puts many polls at 99 or 101. A poll that allows more than one answer per voter runs well past 100 by design, and several here do. The bars are drawn against a fixed 100% track at each option’s own percentage rather than normalised to the total, so a poll that exceeds it shows that it does instead of being quietly rescaled.
Read from the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 20 June 2021 to 16 December 2021. Telegram labels each poll by kind — an anonymous poll, a quiz, a closed set of final results — and that label is reproduced rather than paraphrased.
Forward network

Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
