Stoic Christian Broadcasts

Happy Lord's Day, brothers.

Posts for Guild members coming soon! I've been working on new functionality for our app so members can, share ideas, seek help, like, and comment. It's turning out to be a cross between Twitter and a forum. You can join the Guild for free here: https://app.stoicchristian.com?msopen=/member/plans/d4b77yp6st

Christ is the one true King. If you are a Christian, it's only him you are to bow down. "The Adventures of Robin Hood" by R. L. Green is a great analogy of our present role. In the book, the good king has been physically absent from his kingdom and it's been usurped by an evil ruler. This evil ruler forces his evil ways upon the people causing much anguish and death. Robin hood helps the people who have been wronged by this evil ruler. While, at the same time, recruiting nobles, knights, and others to join in keeping the kingdom for the one true king. It's our job to take ground from the enemy for Christ our King. For he is the one and only rightful king of this world. "The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all." [Psalm 103:19]

The umbrella image used to represent the Biblical family structure, despite being imperfect, does not conflict with Scripture. The criticism of the umbrella image based on its creator, Bill Gothard, does not invalidate the image's usefulness. Biblical imagery often defies human logic, yet still effectively conveys theological concepts like family hierarchy. Clearly defined roles for men and women in the family are essential for smooth operation, as outlined in the Bible. Children are under Christ's authority and covenant, as evidenced by the practice of baptism. The family unit, as created by God, assigns men the role of leadership with women as their supportive helpers. Husbands are tasked with protecting and providing for their families, a responsibility delegated by Christ.

Over the past year and a half since I started creating Reels on Instagram, I have used an image of an umbrella nested under other umbrellas to represent the Biblical family structure. Although this analogy is imperfect, it is the closest I have seen in image form. This image has been used many times, and each time, I hear about the cult leader who created it.

Brothers, it's your household and you are to lead it. If a chore needs to be done, and your wife can't take care of it as she normally would, it's your responsibility to make sure it gets done. Sometimes that means doing the dishes, switching the laundry, and cooking the food.

I started a community on Skool it's 100% free to join right now but will be a paid feature if I like the setup. Anyone that joins now is free for life. This app looks like a good way to interact together and that's what I'm striving towards with the Guild. You can join here: https://www.skool.com/stoic-christian-7263

For decades men have been force fed an image of our Lord which is soft and tolerant of men who do evil. But this is not our Lord Jesus Christ. For He did not tolerate evil but hated it with righteous hatred. It is true, Jesus Christ was kind and gentle. But only to His sheep, the very people that confessed Him to be Lord. However, this is not how Christ interacts with evil... He was fierce to evil and the men pushing evil into normal life. When the world permits evil to thrive, Christian men need to be aggressive and bold against such evil. "And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;" [John 2:15 KJV]
