📚 Agreed Word Meaning — Pre-Debate Gate

Rule: if a formal debate relies on a disputed Bible word, both sides review the verse-specific Greek/Hebrew information and sign the same lexical meaning before the debate starts. Signing the word meaning does not mean agreeing on theology.

Side A / Opposing Position

Side B / Church of Christ

📌 Quote Recall / Argument Recall

Pinned for Rebuttal

Context safeguard: show the speaker, timestamp, and surrounding context. Exact Marcus prompts are marked as exact text. User speech is only exact when a transcript was captured or typed.

Live Human Debate — Manual Quote Capture

A WordPress page cannot automatically capture a Google Meet conversation by itself. Until a live transcript service/backend is connected, use this quick capture for important statements.

🎥 Preset Debate & Video Study Library

Balanced on purpose: Church of Christ material, opposing-side material, and two-sided debates. If the opposing side is missing, we flag it instead of padding the library with weak material.

🎥 Live Debate / Bible Study Meeting

Formal debate gate: checking required word agreements…
Debater 1 / Debater 2: primary speakers.
Moderator: keeps time and manages questions.
Audience / Listeners: can attend to hear the debate and participate in Q&A if the organizer allows it.

Google handoff: this version opens Google Calendar / Meet. True one-click meeting creation, shared voting, automatic email delivery, and Meet transcript capture will need a secure server/API connection later.

🗳 Audience Feedback

Not a “Who won?” popularity contest. Audience feedback separates biblical case from speaking style. Live totals stay hidden until voting is closed.

Moderator Controls

Results hidden until voting closes.
Important: this review build stores votes only on this device. A real 25-person shared vote requires a central database/server so all devices report into the same debate room.

📖⚔️ Let the Bible Speak

Some discussions will end without agreement. Challenge doctrine strongly, but do not attack people. The goal is faithful study, not forcing someone to surrender.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 – 1 Peter 3:15 – Colossians 4:6 – 2 Timothy 2:24-25
