Why do we bother to share the prophetic word? It is not to prove that God knows the future. The whole point is to warn people that the path they tread leads to sorrow. It’s virtually always a call to … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
In the 87th episode of Heiser’s Nake Bible Podcast he explores how the OT Messianic profile included the business of delivering people from demon possession. (Get the transcript here.) If you examine the OT in most English translations, you will … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
Here at Kiln of the Soul community, we aren’t merely non-partisan; our identity and agenda is rooted in another dimension of existence. We are Children of Eternity. I have a niece who is left-wing, pro LGBTQ+ and other wokisms. Doesn’t … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
Over on my Substack account I posted about my preparations for a long bike trip from OKC to Brownsville, TX — Prepping for the Big Ride| Radix Fidem Blog
Once again, this is something that shouldn’t require citing chapter and verse. It should all be familiar already, just a restatement to remind us of how God says things should work under the Covenant. 1. The Body — an extended … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
Sinners will sin. Does that bother you? We don’t belong to this world. “Just as the Father has loved me, I have also loved you; remain in my love. If you obey my commandments, you will remain…| Radix Fidem Blog
The whole letter of Hebrews is focused on the New Covenant in contrast to the Old. Many of us recall how Chapter 11 reviews the host of faithful from the Old who are now watching us from Heaven. The New … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
I read that 37 states have passed laws and rules to keep cellphones out of public education classrooms. This by itself will simply make the kids hate school even more than they already do. The problem is that TPTB aren’t … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
The New Testament clearly references the Old. Jesus was constantly correcting false impressions of what the Law of Moses required of Israel. It helps to gain a Hebraic concept of the terms. Whenever you see the word “law” used in … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
It’s been a quiet couple of weeks for me. I’m still riding the bikes, but mostly so I could go out to my prayer chapels around the county. The thing weighing most on my heart has been identifying the biggest … Continue reading →| Radix Fidem Blog
As always, this is not prophecy, just my reading of the moral currents. As we should have expected, the political revolt of the Epstein Files is growing. It has legs, and it could destroy TrumpR…| Radix Fidem Blog
Jack asked: You’ve mentioned that a significant part of John’s Revelation laments the fading of Hebrew influence in church doctrine. Can you please recommend some of the more important sections in …| Radix Fidem Blog
We talk a great deal about the mindset and worldview of the Hebrew people, because that’s the only way to understand the Bible. But not everything about that outlook is admirable, especially …| Radix Fidem Blog
Kiln of the Soul parish is neither liberal nor conservative in our political outlook. Those terms refer to persuasions based on secular materialism. They are to varying degrees hostile to genuine C…| Radix Fidem Blog
While I do take some of this from Heiser’s podcast, this is not an echo of his material. We begin with noting that the Lord commands Moses to review and summarize the Covenant Law with the na…| Radix Fidem Blog
Re: Naked Bible 79: Leviticus 17-18 We aren’t through with Leviticus. Already we’ve discovered some details that most readers never catch because the Hebraic and ANE background are miss…| Radix Fidem Blog
It’s not just Heiser, though I believe he leads the way in clarifying the sacrificial system in the Old Testament, but a lot of obscure scholarship attempts to dig into something that most Ch…| Radix Fidem Blog
As I’ve said before, Americans have a persistent problem with binary logic. It’s the go-to assumption everyone makes about anything they don’t really understand. While Americans a…| Radix Fidem Blog

You cannot touch eternity if you belong to this world. While we are here, our whole purpose is manifesting eternity in how we pass through this brief time. It requires a sense of detachment, of bei…| Radix Fidem Blog
If you haven’t spent time alone with yourself, feeling for your personal boundaries, you aren’t ready for life. We could rephrase that for Christians as spending time in God’s pre…| Radix Fidem Blog
