  Weekly Wednesday Prayer + Fasting, 6/26/2019
Posted by: jaybreak - 06-26-2019, 06:17 AM - Forum: Announcements - No Replies

Hello, folks. We are participating in our weekly corporate prayer time at 5pm EST. Check out the prayer request forum for some prayer topics, but feel free to lift up your own.

You may also fast. There's no obligation or guidelines to how you should do it, or if you should do it at all. Just fast as the Lord leads and speaks to your convictions.

The following are blogs and sites that, on the whole, the elders at Radox Fidem support, with some caveats. In general, most every author listed is steeped in the Western philosophical and social tradition. The Ancient Near East (ANE) intellectual orientation, which Radix Fidem supports, is a rare jewel. While the authors' "starting point" is opposite of Radix Fidem's, many of their conclusions and beliefs would overlap with ours.

Scott Adams
Creator of the Dilbert comic's blog, who blogs his Periscope videos. Might be one of the closest things to an "objective" analysis of politics, media, and human psychology.

Christian Think Tank
A mixed bag in terms of actual answers provided, but the author addresses pertinent questions.

Dalrock
Discusses the disaster of the modern American church's take on marriage, as well as analysis of feminism's roots in the pagan chivalrous social code.

Jay DiNitto
A Radix Fidem elder's blog. Covers film, books, creative writing, and philosophy.

Human Phenotypes
A catalog and explanation of all the human phenotypes/races in the world, pre-colonialism (before ~1500). Has a lot of technical language but still fascinating to the layman.

Radix Fidem blog
Ed's blog and site form the philosophical foundation of what we do here at Radix Fidem.

Love for Real
Linda from Radix Fidem's personal blog.

Sigma Frame
"Understanding that accepting the Red Pill Challenge is real and widespread in western society, I started this blog in order to preserve for posterity the things I have learned, and am continuing to learn about this endeavor. By posting these concepts in a public space, I intend to both record and report my personal experiences, and my observations of modern society, especially in the areas of faith and relationships,..."

The Unz Review
"A Collection of Interesting, Important, and Controversial Perspectives Largely Excluded from the American Mainstream Media"

Poal
A less restricted, less "uptight" version of Reddit. Content warning.

Vox Day
Theodore Beale offers analysis on world politics and social behavior that align often with ours. Also has insights into the publishing and entertainment industries.

Zero Hedge
Similar to The Unz Review in its focus and approach to world events. "On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero."

  Biblical Contemplation
Posted by: Ed Hurst - 06-20-2019, 10:58 AM - Forum: Sermons, Teachings, Blog Posts - Replies (1)

You'll hear evangelicals warning folks against "contemplative prayer." Yet the Bible is full of references to contemplation. The problem is terminology, as usual. The evies are worried about "contemplation" in the Far Eastern sense of striving to silence the mind and the ego. We can agree with evies on that. The idea is not to silence the mind and let something else take over, because that leaves you open to demonic powers. We seek to discipline the mind as a servant of the heart. We seek to separate the ego from the intellect and become conscious of other parts of our human awareness.

The whole point of contemplation is teaching the mind from your convictions. You want your mind to learn better ways to respond to things. It's paths need to be clarified and straightened, made more consistent with where we are headed in Kingdom service. In that sense, contemplative prayer is a good thing. It's a conversation with God, who lives in your heart.

Today I didn't feel like a hard ride or walk, so I took my ball over to the old abandoned mall and stood in a shady entry way and just bounced it off the brick walls, pillars and simply stood bouncing it off the concrete floor for a while. The idea was solitude that distracted a part of my mind so that my heart could more easily dominate the conversation. In that condition, my mouth was able to express what was on my heart, and my mind was taught by the words that came out. Yes, it's possible to let your heart take over your conscious bodily functions, and the mouth in particular. That's because we can still leave the ego in charge without it being imprisoned in the intellect.

We can leave the evies to chase their straw men while we live the Word of Christ.

  Curriculum Reminder
Posted by: Ed Hurst - 06-06-2019, 12:46 PM - Forum: Sermons, Teachings, Blog Posts - Replies (3)

Just so one one gets lost, we are not aiming to build up Kiln of the Soul parish, nor the Radix Fidem religion. That will happen, but it's not our goal. The purpose of the curriculum is to offer to as many folks as possible the full divine heritage of the Covenant of Christ. You may notice the parts I keep posting in my blog don't carry some of our common teaching. That's because I'm trying to make it more generic. The idea is to push the heart-led way, which includes a heavy dose of Biblical Law. Once people latch onto those things, it doesn't matter what group they belong to. The more specific stuff we do here naturally appeals to a very small audience.

Eventually this curriculum will be published as an ebook with a title something like "The Heart of Biblical Living."
