The Radical Pilgrim is not an institution, just a Bible believing web site.  Nor is it connected to, or belonging to any group, denomination or organization.  This is why you will find we (my family that is) will not try and get you to join our "thing" and add membership to "our" cause (you may be disappointed in what you see anyway), or club (there's too many of them already), or empire (politics is not our game).

Does this mean people who attend these things are hypocrites?  Not necessarily!  Quite often the contrary; as things like "sincerity" or "devotion" play a big part in their scene.  'Within' or 'without' you get your fair share of users and abusers.  However, this does not rule out within a smaller non-structured group, where people are generally not interested in paraphernalia or outward presentation, there is less to hide behind, and more to be exposed to.  In the end ...  being answerable to God, and to Him only, is what counts.

What's the pitch then?  There isn't one.  There are no "for sale" signs.  The kingdom of God cannot be peddled, bartered, auctioned, or traded off.  Also, the chances are we will never meet this side of eternity.  In fact, we may never correspond with each other (although it would be nice to hear from you).  But if we can, by this written material, point you to a relationship with the Lord Jesus (the Gentiles Christ and the Jews Messiah), in the privacy of your own life, then God has wrought something very special and lasting.  And this is precisely what this site is all about.  You may not agree with some of  it's content (which you are entitled to anyway) but at least give it some honest consideration, comparing everything with holy scripture.  The bottom line ...  we don't want to put anything on YOU, or ANYONE, just point you to HIM, minus anything that may clutter the way.

Moreover, if the Lord by any chance ever chooses to close this web site down, then it could be time to move on.  After all ...  we're only passing thru!
