Biblical Masculinity

Assert Your God-Ordained Headship Authority

"The order of operations: God in Christ > Christ in man > man over woman > woman over children."
— The God Pill

At The God Pill, we believe that marriage is a typology or symbol of the relationship between CHRIST and His Church.

We believe, therefore, that the church is the Bride of Christ (Eph. 5:25-27; 31-32)—

—and that a wife must SUBMIT to the "word" of her husband (Eph. 5:24).

Now, genuine submission involves one party yielding to another's authority, creating a distinction between the one who submits and the one who is submitted to.

Therefore, if the church (the bride) submits to the WORD of Christ (the Husband), Christ's Word must be superior to that of the church—

—and, by extension, the Husband must be the 👉 HEAD 👈 of the wife.

"Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands."
— Ephesians 5:22-24 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you are tired of being walked on, biting your tongue, and letting things slide because you fear conflict, hear this: a man who will not draw a line ends up living under everyone else's. The Kingdom Council 🏛️ trains you to stop shrinking and to start leading. Because respect follows strength—not silence.

Sola Scriptura vs. Church Tradition

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"Divine authority is superior to all human authority, making Scripture the highest authority."
— The God Pill

At The God Pill, we hold to sola scriptura, not church tradition—

—and we believe that the church is the Bride of Christ (Eph. 5:25-27; 31-32).

We also believe that a wife must SUBMIT to the "word" of her husband (Eph. 5:24)—

—and that genuine submission involves one party yielding to another's authority, creating a distinction between the one who submits and the one to whom they submit.

Therefore, if the church (the bride) submits to the WORD of Christ (the Husband), then Christ's Word must supersede church tradition—

—and His Word, as revealed in Scripture, must be greater than Apostolic authority—

—and His divine authority must be superior to all human authority, making Scripture the 👉 HIGHEST AUTHORITY 👈 (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

"See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ."
— Colossians 2:8 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you are wrestling with God and questioning whether your faith is real or merely inherited, this is not doubt—it is pressure testing your faith. When churches soften and Christian men grow weaker than the world they are called to confront, faith becomes a battleground. This brotherhood restores Biblically masculine conviction and forges faith that holds under fire—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Because a faith that cannot be tested cannot be trusted.

Meekness Is Not Weakness

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"Anybody can become angry—that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way—that is not within everybody's power and is not easy."
― Aristotle

Men today are REDEFINING terms.

They are saying that Jesus was the MEEKEST man alive—

—and what they mean by this is that He's some sort of SISSY, some kind of Gandhi, some type of Buddhist whipping boy—"you can hit me, but I'll never fight back."

"I'll NEVER raise my hand."

It's always this soft, LIMP-WRISTED nonsense.

A flamboyantly effeminate, limp-wristed yellow hand.

These individuals frequently misquote verses about "turning the other cheek."

"Most morality is cowardice in the guise of morality."
— Friedrich Nietzsche, German philosopher

They become pacifists because they think that's what meekness is—

—and that's NOT what meekness is.

Meekness is not weakness.

Meekness is strength under control.

Again, meekness isn't weakness; it's strength under control.

Meekness is a man who can CRUSH YOU 💪, but he's got enough control over his spirit and emotions that he won't.

He could, but he WON'T.

The Bible says, "Be ye angry, and sin not" (Eph. 4:26).

Our Lord Jesus experienced anger, and yet He was without sin (Heb. 4:15).

He spoke as one with 👉 AUTHORITY 👈 (Matt. 7:23)—always humble yet confident, patient yet resolute.

—and that's where the VIRTUE lies.

Never mistake Christ's tolerance for ACCEPTANCE—

—or His patience for PASSIVITY.

"Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city."
— Proverbs 16:32 (ESV)

"Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell."
— Matthew 10:28 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you are tired of getting talked over, shrinking in conversations, and replaying what you should have said after the moment has passed, this is the truth: hesitation is not harmless—it trains others to lead while you follow. The Kingdom Council 🏛️ is where men drop the nice-guy mask and speak with clarity, confidence, and charisma.

Are You an Ignorant Idiot or an Educated Fool?

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"It doesn't matter how smart or reasonable you are. If the opposition is too stupid to understand, you'll never win. So do not speak in the hearing of fools, for they will despise the good sense of your words. If Jesus couldn't convince them, neither will you."
— The God Pill

The Bible warns that "everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak" (James 1:19), and that "the way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice" (Prov. 12:15).

As Lao Tzu eloquently said, "Those who know do not speak, and those who speak do not know."

So, I ask you: Are you following the way of a wise man—

—or of a FOOL? 😵‍💫

"You cannot always be right; you should try being wrong sometimes because you might learn something."
— Johnny Depp

The Idiot Test

When presented with new information, do you listen to UNDERSTAND, or do you hear to RESPOND?

Is your first impulse to:

A) Point out the EXCEPTION?

or...

B) Understand the RULE?

Now, pause and examine yourself carefully: 🔎

Are you idealistic or realistic?
Is your approach based on logic and reason or feeling and emotion?
Do you operate on probability and actuality or possibility and potentiality?
Do you embrace the norm or reach for the outlier?

Consider the time-honored phrase:

💡 "The exception proves the rule." 💡

Put another way, the exception is the reason the rule exists.

Again, the exception demonstrates why we have a rule.

And rules are 👉 IMPORTANT 👈.

"To every rule there is an exception—and an idiot ready to demonstrate it. Don't be the one!"
― Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration

Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood

"A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion."
― Proverbs 18:2 (ESV)

"If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet."
— Proverbs 29:9 (ESV)

Remember

What's more dangerous than believing something without evidence is rejecting the evidence in favor of what you believe.

So, sit back, relax, open your mind—

—and come to 👉 LEARN 👈, not to argue.

If your mind is already made up, my job is not to convince you; it is only to deliver the message.

"Learning without thinking is useless. Thinking without learning is dangerous."
— Confucius

"Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent."
— Proverbs 17:28 (ESV)

"And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."
— Matthew 13:14-15 (KJV)

✠ P.S. If you freeze under pressure—your chest tightens, your thoughts scatter, and you surrender the moment—this is not fragility; it is emotional volatility. Pressure does not break men—it exposes who is in control. A man who governs his reactions is dangerous: calm when others panic, deliberate when others unravel. The Kingdom Council 🏛️ trains you to remain dangerous under pressure. Because the man who controls himself does not just win the moment—he owns it.

Is Your Jealousy Harmful or Healthy?

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"My friends, I need help to take on the jealousy I've been feeling lately—two things: one is, I let a spirit of 'oneitis' consume me with a lady at church. I saw her with her new boyfriend at church today. Secondly, this new boyfriend (who I know is a doofus and a douchebag) has another girlfriend that he is showing off on social media. Any quick devotionals or encouragement?"
— Gabriel Lee DiMatteo, private group member

There are two types of jealousy: a GOOD kind and an EVIL kind.

Again, there are two types of jealousy: "right" and "wrong," protective and possessive.

"I'm not jealous; I'm territorial. You have two choices: either I care about you and I'm territorial, or I don't care about you and I'm not."
— Andrew Tate

Type 1 Jealousy (The "Bad" Kind)

You should strive to recognize, resist, and renounce this type of HARMFUL JEALOUSY—and encourage others to do the same.

Deuteronomy 5:21 states: "You shall not covet your neighbor's wife; and you shall not desire your neighbor's house, his field, his male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's."

Why?

Because these things ARE NOT YOURS.

Type 2 Jealousy (The "Good" Kind)

Jealousy over what rightfully belongs to you can be protective, proportionate, and PERMISSIBLE—because these things are YOURS.

Remember: even God is JEALOUS.

The Bible says, "For the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God" (Ex. 34:14).

Therefore, if God is both perfectly good and JEALOUS, then it stands to reason that jealousy, in the proper context, is also 👉 GOOD 👈—because only a coward would not protect what is his.

"No one is good except God alone."
— Mark 10:18 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you are tired of staying quiet, swallowing anger, and watching people cross lines they would never let you cross with them, this is the truth: weak boundaries do not protect you—they erase you. The Kingdom Council 🏛️ is where you learn to stop avoiding conflict and start asserting authority without apology. Because no one respects a man who does not respect himself.

He Must Increase, But She Must Decrease

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"Actions are the greatest indicator of intent, so judge by actions, not words. Behavior is the only reliable evidence of motivation. By her fruits, you will recognize her."
— God Pill Maxim

As men, our deep attraction to particular women often blinds us to serious RED FLAGS.

When we're smitten, we'll tolerate an entire spectrum of poor behavior, last-minute cancellations, and unreasonable demands.

We'll even accept the lamest of excuses—no questions asked.

Sometimes, hoping against hope, we'll even believe the LIES.

"Beauty will cover a multitude of sins."
— God Pill Maxim

This is the consequence of putting women before God—of making them IDOLS—and deliberately giving ourselves over to "strong delusion."

You know you've done it.

"Sin will make you stupid."
— Steve Hill, Christian Evangelist

Remember

You shall make your mission, not women, the FOCUS.

When you make women the focus, they become idols, which is SINFUL.

So be a man after God's own heart, not a man after theirs.

"He must increase, but they must decrease."

Women are fleeting—

—but God is SUFFICIENT. 💪

"A genuine Christian is desirable by default, since his highest priority isn't women—but God."
— The God Pill

✠ P.S. If you are angry, bitter, and wrestling with the realization that everything you believed about women was a lie, you are not falling apart—you are waking up. Red Pill Rage is not the destination. It is the fire that burns away illusion. The Kingdom Council 🏛️—Brotherhood of Kings is where that fire stops burning you and starts building you.

We Are All Screwed Up—All of Us

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"As the Scriptures say, 'No one is righteous— not even one.'"
— Romans 3:10 (NLT)

We all have SECRET thoughts.

We all have FORBIDDEN desires.

We all have HIDDEN sins.

We all have a PAST.

We all stand 👉 GUILTY 👈 before the Lord—every single one of us.

You are not alone, my brother.

God sees you...

"Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the LORD."
— Jeremiah 23:24 (ESV)

The truth is that we all have 💀 SKELETONS IN OUR CLOSET 💀—

—yet we are often unaware of our own DEPRAVITY, as the world seeks to blind our eyes and harden our hearts.

In our flesh, our transgressions frequently go UNNOTICED—

—and we fail to recognize just how far we've BACKSLIDDEN.

"The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?"
— Jeremiah 17:9 (NLT)

Often, only the eyes of God can REVEAL it.

Only the mind of God can PERCEIVE it.

Only the strength of God can BEAR it.

Only the hand of God can LEAD it.

Only the peace of God can SOOTHE it.

And only the power of God can 👉 TRANSFORM 👈 it.

You are not alone...

Seek the LORD while he may be found—

—and call on him while he is near (Isa. 55:6).

Praise be to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who called us out of darkness and into his marvelous light!

"In Christianity, it's not 'due'; it's 'done,' based on what Christ has done."

*Related: "Check Your Heart!"

✠ P.S. When a man hides sin, carries guilt, and pretends he is fine, the indictment is simple. Sin does not die in the dark—it grows there, and isolation does not strengthen a man—it softens him. The Kingdom Council 🏛️ is where hidden battles are exposed, compromise is rejected, and obedience is lived under accountability. A man who hides his battle will lose it—because what is concealed is never conquered.

Check Your Heart!

By Ryan M. Maes Leave a Comment

"Touch me, O Lord,
and fill me with your light and your hope.
Please give me strength when I am weak,
love when I am forsaken,
courage when I am afraid,
wisdom when I am foolish,
comfort when I am alone,
hope when I am rejected,
and peace when I am afflicted.
Amen."

When we are hit with severe hardship, trial, or affliction, one of two things generally happens:

We retreat inward—

—or we reach upward.

When We Retreat Inward

Our HEARTS HARDEN, leading to a spirit of bitterness and resentment taking root—

—and we lash out at God with fiery rage because life seems so UNFAIR.

When We Reach Upward

Our HEARTS SOFTEN, and our love and devotion to God—coupled with our utter helplessness apart from Him—drive us to our knees in shame-faced sobriety—

—and we cry out to Him in anguish, "Abba, Father!" with a broken and contrite heart because we know we cannot do it ALONE.

How Will You Respond to Life's Challenges?

Will you harden or soften?

Will you stand alone or kneel in His presence?

Will you isolate in anger or connect in surrender?

Will BITTERNESS drive you—

—or will HUMILITY guide you?

"Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon."
— Isaiah 55:6-9 (ESV)

✠ P.S. If you have drifted from God or are wrestling with doubt, this is not a phase—it is erosion. Distance from God never stays neutral; it weakens conviction until faith collapses under pressure. This brotherhood exists to restore Biblical masculinity and forge faith that is lived, not inherited—inside The Kingdom Council 🏛️. Because when pressure comes, a faith you do not live will leave you standing alone.
