Welcome to Day 2701 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – “The Cloud Rider” – Supernatural Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2701 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2701 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today, we continue with the 12th of 16 segments of our Theology Thursday lessons. I will read through the book "Supernatural," written by Hebrew Bible scholar, professor, and mentor Dr. Michael S. Heiser, who has since passed away. Supernatural is a condensed version of his comprehensive book, ‘The Unseen Realm.' If these readings pique your interest, I would recommend that you read ‘The Unseen Realm.' Today, we will read through chapter twelve: “The Cloud Rider” I closed the last chapter by noting how Jesus began to talk about his death immediately after baiting the powers of darkness at the gates of hell and Mount Hermon. The challenge set in motion a string of events that would lead to the Lord's trial and his death on the cross. Christians have read about the trial of Jesus many times. But there's a supernatural backdrop to it that is frequently overlooked. To understand what finally draws the death sentence from the Jewish authorities and the transfer of Jesus to Pontius Pilate to carry it out, we have to go back to the Old Testament book of Daniel—to a meeting God holds with his heavenly host, his divine council. The Ancient of Days and His Council Daniel 7 begins with an odd vision. Daniel sees four beasts coming out of the sea (Dan. 7:1–8). They're all freakish, but the fourth beast is the worst. In the dreams interpreted in the Old Testament, both objects and living things always represent something, and in this dream, the four beasts in Daniel's vision are four empires. We know that because his vision aligns with the themes of Nebuchadnezzar's dream in Daniel 2, which was about Babylon and three other empires to follow. Our focus, though, is on what Daniel describes next: As I looked, thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat; his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames; its wheels were burning fire. A stream of fire issued and came out from before him; a thousand thousands served him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him; the court sat in judgment, and the books were opened. (Dan. 7:9–10) We know the Ancient of Days is the God of Israel. That's pretty easy to determine, especially if we compare the description of his throne to Ezekiel's vision of God's throne (Ezek. 1). The fire, wheels, and human form on the throne in that vision are the same as Daniel's. But did you notice there isn't just one throne? There are a number of thrones in Daniel's vision (Dan. 7:9)—enough for the divine court, God's council (Dan. 7:10). The heavenly court meets to decide the fate of the beasts—the empires—in the vision. It is decided that the fourth beast must be killed and the other beasts rendered powerless (Dan. 7:11–12). They will be displaced by another king and kingdom. And that's where things get even more interesting. The Son of Man Who Comes on the Clouds Daniel continues narrating his vision: I saw in the night visions, and...
In the first half of the episode, Matt takes listeners through Revelation 18:14-24, which is embedded with multiple allusions to the Old Testament. The OT imagery of divine judgment that John employs is especially striking here. In the second half, Matt interacts with Jason Staples' recent article (link below), which argues that "Babylon the Great" is not a reference to Rome but, rather, to Jerusalem.

In this episode of Oldest Stories, we explore the later reign of Tiglath-Pileser III, one of the most transformative kings of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. By the late 8th century BCE, Assyria's power seemed unstoppable, yet beneath the victories lay structural weaknesses.We examine four key failures that reveal how the empire actually worked:The eastern provincial revolts of 737 BCE, exposing the limits of Assyria's new provincial system.The failed Assyrian siege of Tushpa, capital of Urartu, and what it taught about siege warfare and logistics.The Babylonian crisis of the 730s, where Chaldeans, Arameans, and internal rebellions undermined Assyria's southern policy.The succession struggle following Tiglath-Pileser's death, setting the stage for Shalmaneser V and the rise of Sargon II.Along the way we look at Assyrian reforms, deportation policies, eunuch officials, Assyrian-Babylonian relations, and Urartian resistance. We also discuss how propaganda, letters, and oracles shaped royal decisions, and why even the greatest reforming king of Assyria faced real limits to his power.If you are interested in Ancient Mesopotamia, Assyrian history, Babylon, Urartu, Neo-Assyrian military reforms, biblical history, or the geopolitics of the ancient Near East, this episode will give you an in-depth, historically grounded perspective.I am also doing daily history facts again, at least until I run out of time again.

In this chapter, Nancy continues the Ultimate Intention series with DeVern Fromke's insights on God's higher purposes. Using the history of Israel as a backdrop, the lesson explores how God repeatedly delivered His people, yet they often failed to grasp His ultimate intention. Freedom was never meant for self-indulgence but to be given back to God in love and obedience. From Egypt to Babylon, Israel's story reveals the danger of using grace without yielding to divine purpose. Nancy emphasizes that true liberty is not living without restraint but being joyfully captive to God's love and vision. The turning of captivity means not just being freed from oppression, but being bound to Him who is freedom itself. Thanks for Listening!

In a sense, the story of Scripture can be told through the story of cities. The Bible teaches that cities are a part of God's original design for human flourishing (Eden), that cities can amplify sinful pride and idolatry (Babel), that God's people should actively seek the comprehensive renewal of the city (Babylon), that cities can be missional hubs in reaching the nations (Antioch), and that our true home is found in the heavenly city that comes to earth (New Jerusalem). Understanding these things should shape how we live, work, play, and relate to our own city here in Los Angeles.
What does it mean to carry a Daniel Anointing in today's Babylonian culture?In this unique episode of The Directed Life, Kap Chatfield sits down with his longtime friend and protégé, Luke Reelfs, for a raw, unscripted conversation on calling, spiritual authority, and flipping culture for the Kingdom.They unpack what it looks like to steward multiple talents without compromise, the real purpose of influence in “Babylon,” and the spiritual warfare that stands in the way of Kingdom assignments. Kap breaks down Daniel's prophetic strategy for engaging culture without being conformed to it, the biblical mandate to reach kings, and why excellence is non-negotiable for cultural transformation.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop talks with Paul Spencer about the intersection of AI and astrology, the balance of fate and free will, and how embodiment shapes human experience in time and space. They explore cultural shifts since 2020, the fading influence of institutions, the “patchwork age” of decentralized communities, and the contrasts between solar punk and cyberpunk visions for the future. Paul shares his perspective on America's evolving role, the symbolism of the Aquarian Age, and why philosophical, creative, and practical adaptability will be essential in the years ahead. You can connect with Paul and explore more of his work and writings at zeitvillemedia.substack.com, or find him as @ZeitvilleMedia on Twitter and You Tube.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop and Paul Spencer open with a discussion on AI and astrology, exploring fate versus free will and how human embodiment shapes the way we move through time and space.05:00 Paul contrasts the human timeline, marked by death, with AI's lack of finality, bringing in Brian Johnson's transhumanism and the need for biological embodiment for true AI utility.10:00 They explore how labor, trade, food, and procreation anchor human life, connecting these to the philosophical experience of space and time.15:00 Nietzsche and Bergson's ideas on life force, music, and tactile philosophy are discussed as alternatives to detached Enlightenment thinking.20:00 The conversation shifts to social media's manipulation, institutional decay after 2020, and the absence of an “all clear” moment.25:00 They reflect on the chaotic zeitgeist, nostalgia for 2021's openness, and people faking cultural cohesion.30:00 Paul uses Seinfeld as an example of shared codes, contrasting it with post-woke irony and drifting expectations.35:00 Pluto in Aquarius and astrological energies frame a shift from heaviness to a delirious cultural mood.40:00 Emotional UBI and the risks of avoiding emotional work lead into thoughts on America's patchwork future.45:00 They explore homesteading, raw milk as a cultural symbol, and the tension between consumerism and alternative visions like solar punk and cyberpunk.50:00 Paul highlights the need for cross-tribal diplomacy, the reality of the surveillance state, and the Aquarian Age's promise of decentralized solutions.Key InsightsPaul Spencer frames astrology as a way to understand the interplay of fate and free will within the embodied human experience, emphasizing that humans are unique in their awareness of time and mortality, which gives life story and meaning.He argues that AI, while useful for shifting perspectives, lacks “skin in the game” because it has no embodiment or death, and therefore cannot fully grasp or participate in the human condition unless integrated into biological or cybernetic systems.The conversation contrasts human perception of space and time, drawing from philosophers like Nietzsche and Bergson who sought to return philosophy to the body through music, dance, and tactile experiences, challenging abstract, purely cerebral approaches.Post-2020 culture is described as a “patchwork age” without a cohesive zeitgeist, where people often “fake it” through thin veneers of social codes. This shift, combined with Pluto's move into Aquarius, has replaced the heaviness of previous years with a chaotic, often giddy nihilism.America is seen as the primary arena for the patchwork age due to its pioneering, experimental spirit, with regional entrepreneurship and cultural biodiversity offering potential for renewal, even as nostalgia for past unity and imperial confidence lingers.Tensions between “solar punk” and “cyberpunk” visions highlight the need for cross-tribal diplomacy—connecting environmentalist, primitivist, and high-tech decentralist communities—because no single approach will be sufficient to navigate accelerating change.The Aquarian Age, following the Piscean Age in the procession of the equinoxes, signals a movement from centralized, hypnotic mass programming toward decentralized, engineering-focused solutions, where individuals must focus on building beauty and resilience in their own worlds rather than being consumed by “they” narratives.
Given the time frame established by the prophet himself, Micah's prophecies are astoundingly clear and accurate, as he clearly pronounces the fall of Samaria, the destruction of Jerusalem, and the coming captivity in Babylon. The people had grown comfortable in religious activity but they were excusing sin and denying the possibility of judgment. He urges God's people to consider the nature and character of God Himself, and in so doing, they ought to repent in light of his justice and holiness. Micah 1 - 1:06 . Micah 2 - 4:27 .

What a tragedy confronts the reader in Solomon's defiance of Yahweh's instructions. The record tells us of the foreign wives who corrupted the king (see Nehemiah 13 verses 25-27). Deuteronomy 17 had commanded the kings to write a personal copy the law, which contained commandments on the very matters Solomon contravened - see verses 14-29. And so the kingdom, to a large extent, would be torn from Solomon's son - Rehoboam. The circumstances of the rending of the civil fabric of Israel's society are described in the bulk of the chapter. The kingdom would pass to a diligent, but ambitious servant of Solomon's - whose name was Jeroboam. When this man came to the throne of Israel, also called Ephraim and Samaria he was to set up an idolatrous rival system of worship and is frequently called "the man who made Israel to sin". Solomon's death is recorded and his actions are said to have been written in "the Acts of Solomon".Jeremiah warns the vacillating king Zedekiah to obey his divine Sovereign. The corrupt and vacillating king is told that Judah would receive no help from Pharaoh's army who had returned to Egypt. Chaldean captivity was inevitable and the king and his realm were instructed to submit to Babylon's authority. The Judean princes plot Jeremiah's imprisonment on the false charge of treason, ie supporting the Chaldeans. The prophet is shamefully beaten and imprisoned. Zedekiah sent for Jeremiah and the king, who was fearful of his nobles, and secretly questioned him. However, Jeremiah pleads to be spared by the king. Zedekiah places the prophet in custody and commands that he receives a daily ration of bread from the city's bakery. Jeremiah in his sufferings is a remarkable servant of God and a type of the suffering servant - the Lord Jesus Christ. In the 11th chapter of Mark we read of Jesus' triumphal entry to Jerusalem. He rode on a donkey, a colt the foal of an ass, in fulfilment of the prophecy of Zechariah 9 verse 9 and also that of Genesis 49 verses :10-12. It was an animal that had never been ridden. It seems to suggest that our Lord Jesus would be the ruler/rider of the Gentiles. The crowds strewed their clothes and palm branches before Christ's path, and shouted, 'Hosanna' (save now) as the prophecy predicted. We are additionally told they recited Psalm 118 verses 26. It is recommended that we read Psalm 118 verses 19-29 and meditate on the many messages from that Hallel - or Passover Psalm - this being Passover time. As it was late, our Lord and his Apostles headed to Bethany. The next morning, as they left Bethany, Jesus saw a fig tree that showed promise of early fruit; just like Israel, whose symbol that tree was. But finding no fruit on the tree our Lord cursed it. It was like the fruitless nation: Matthew 21 verses 43 - read and consider the context of these words. That day Jesus cleanses the temple from corruption - the second time see John 2 verses 13-17 this was first done three and a half years earlier at the commencement of our Lord's ministry. That evening Christ returns to Bethany. The next morning the disciples were amazed at the withered tree and our Lord uses the opportunity to tell the power of persistent prayer. Jesus' foes were confounded the following day by his masterful answer on the source of his authority.More here https://christadelphianvideo.org/christadelphian-daily-readings/

In this Bible Story, King Nebuchadnezzar is tormented by dreams. In search of an interpretation, the king seeks out the wise men and magicians of the time. Daniel gives him an interpretation and the Lord is faithful to show Daniel and the King what was going to take place among the nations. Daniel, just like Joseph before Pharaoh, is given governance over the kingdom as a result. This story is inspired by Daniel 2.

f you've ever wondered what heaven thinks of all the different religious messages on Earth, this episode gives you a front-row seat. In Revelation 14, three angels appear in the sky to declare the final gospel warning to a world in rebellion. Their message is not new. It's the eternal gospel that has always called people to repentance, worship, and faith in the Creator. Stephen Davey walks you through the powerful words of these angelic messengers. You'll learn why creation is inseparable from the gospel message, why denying a Creator leads to disaster, and how false religions, from ancient Babylon to modern cults, have always tried to offer an imitation salvation. But one day, the truth will be shouted from the heavens. You'll also be challenged to evaluate what you believe about origins, eternity, and salvation. The world is filled with angels of light and gospels of works, but the true gospel stands alone, centered on the Lamb of God, crucified and risen. This is a compelling reminder that God doesn't just whisper the truth. He declares it boldly, even through angels. The time is short. Judgment is near. But the offer of salvation still stands.

Through the famous story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, we will see an example of courage that could only come from faith in God. These three young men knew that God was bigger than anything life can throw at us. And more importantly, that God was better than anything death could take away. So what does courage look like in your life right now?
For decades, eagle-eyed prophecy aficionados have scoured the headlines and the Scriptures hoping to find clues as to where we're at on God's prophetic timeline and how much longer we'll have to wait before the glorious return of our Master, Yeshua. But does the Bible really predict Apache helicopters, Patriot missiles, the Chernobyl disaster, and nuclear weapons? In this, the first of a multi-part series on the end times, this podcast episode features a discussion with D. Thomas Lancaster, author of the forthcoming End of Days Torah Club study track. Jacob and Daniel explore some of the apocalyptic imagery in the Bible to find out what's really going on behind the veil.

f you've ever wondered what heaven thinks of all the different religious messages on Earth, this episode gives you a front-row seat. In Revelation 14, three angels appear in the sky to declare the final gospel warning to a world in rebellion. Their message is not new. It's the eternal gospel that has always called people to repentance, worship, and faith in the Creator. Stephen Davey walks you through the powerful words of these angelic messengers. You'll learn why creation is inseparable from the gospel message, why denying a Creator leads to disaster, and how false religions, from ancient Babylon to modern cults, have always tried to offer an imitation salvation. But one day, the truth will be shouted from the heavens. You'll also be challenged to evaluate what you believe about origins, eternity, and salvation. The world is filled with angels of light and gospels of works, but the true gospel stands alone, centered on the Lamb of God, crucified and risen. This is a compelling reminder that God doesn't just whisper the truth. He declares it boldly, even through angels. The time is short. Judgment is near. But the offer of salvation still stands.
Healing from trauma is a long and involved process — and it's not just Satanic ritual abuse that can cause deep wounds. Things like everyday rejections or difficulties can build up and create trauma effects too.

This is a call that goes out to the lost, the broken, and the hurt: God loves you and will heal you.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Gain a deeper understanding of how trauma can fragment your soul and how God's love and healing can restore those broken pieces.Understand the spiritual principles behind emotional triggers and the importance of surrender, repentance, and holiness in overcoming deep-seated wounds.Learn practical steps to invite Yeshua into your healing journey, allowing Him to transform your pain and bring true freedom.Become Part of Our Mission!

Or that somebody said something mean to you and you didn't think you were good enough — or an earthquake.”You can experience brokenheartedness in your everyday life too, like going to bed angry. This gives the Enemy a foothold in your heart.Samantha shares a personal story about her daughter's sensitivity and how it gave the Enemy an opening.Addressing these issues is important early on to prevent long-term damage in children.However, not all trauma is extreme, and even small, unresolved issues can build up over time and cause significant emotional pain.[09:43] The Role of the Church in Healing Satanic Ritual AbuseThe church is important in providing healing and deliverance especially when many people feel rejected or unheard in church settings.Many Christians struggle with the idea of being affected by demons despite being saved from Satanic ritual abuse — although salvation came unto them, they have yet to heal.In the same vein, there's a critical difference between the regeneration of the spirit and the healing of the soul.Christians need to understand that healing is not a one-time event. It's a process.[15:36] Practical Steps for Healing and Surrender to ChristAs Christians, we must remember the power that comes from surrendering to Christ and immersing ourselves in prayer and the Word.Being prayerful and seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit are some of the most powerful tools for us to receive true healing.[18:25] Samantha: “You can't just expect the Spirit to just fall on, the Holy Spirit to just do everything. You have got to take initiative and surrender to the Lord.”Healing doesn't come from nothing — it's hard work. It requires us to take the initiative to heal ourselves as well.We need a genuine desire for Jesus and the willingness to do the difficult work that goes into healing your soul.[20:27] The Importance of Identity and Whose We AreIt is important to recognize your identity in Christ and understand who we belong to.David, despite his sins, was remembered for being a man after God's own heart because of his desire for the Lord.There is a need for discipleship and understanding the word to grasp one's identity in Christ.[29:43] Michelle: “I want you to know that when someone finally recognizes who they are and whose they are, this is one of the key things. Even while Daniel was in Babylon, Daniel never forgot who he was.”As Christians, it's our God-given obligation to love others and bear witness to the love of Jesus.[30:38] The Role of the Holy Spirit in HealingMichelle discusses the role of the Holy Spirit in healing and the importance of being open to His guidance.One story to remember in the Bible is that of the woman at the well, who, due to her faith, was transformed and healed by the love of Jesus.There's a need for genuine love and support from the Church to help others heal.Receiving healing lets a person help others in turn.The Church becomes the bridge between brokenness and healing.[36:28] Holiness and RepentanceThe role of the church in addressing triggers lies in providing healing for those who are struggling.The soul needs to walk in the power and authority of God and Christ — something a person's Church must understand.Healing requires holiness and repentance; part of a true desire for God comes from overcoming and repenting our sins.Healing comes from a place of genuine love and support, especially from the Church.Overcoming the deep wounds of Satanic ritual abuse requires addressing the root causes behind a person's emotional pain and trauma.[51:28] Closing Prayer and EncouragementThrough God's guidance and protection, we can overcome all adversity, even that which comes from the Enemy.May you remember to be a part of the remnant Church.Keep true to God's commandments and love.About MichelleMichelle Young is a devoted servant of God, with over 30 years of experience in discipling and counseling those seeking spiritual healing and freedom.

Surrender! That was the prophet Jeremiah's message to the people of Judah.
