King Ahaziah's Mistake and Elijah's ProphecyIn this episode, the story of King Ahaziah from the Bible is discussed. Instead of calling on God for healing, Ahaziah sought help from Beelzebub, a false god. This angered God, who then sent the prophet Elijah to convey a message to the king. Elijah informed Ahaziah that because he trusted in a false god rather than God, he would not recover from his illness and would die. The episode delves into the details of this biblical encounter and its implications.

Sermon on 1 Samuel 5, where the Lord shows the Philistines that He is the one true & living God, but striking down the image of Dagon (their idol) and striking the people with tumors/disease until they sent His ark back to Israel.

Fr. Mike takes us through the last chapter of Daniel and explains how Daniel models for us on how to live in exile and still be faithful to the Lord. We also see in Jeremiah the Lord promise a new covenant that will ultimately be fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Today's readings are Jeremiah 31, Daniel 14, and Proverbs 16:21-24.

ANCIENT CITIES AND THE GODS WHO BUILT THEM takes readers on a thought-provoking journey through the mysteries of Scripture and history—exploring the Nephilim, the Tower of Babel, Atlantis, and the parallels between biblical accounts and ancient mythology. From giants mentioned in the Bible to the influence of Greek gods and the rise of Rome, this book uncovers the hidden stories that reveal how the days of Noah still echo today and why they matter for understanding God's plan. Bold and uncompromising, it invites you to look deeper into the questions many avoid, offering fresh insight into faith, history, and the return of Christ.

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we confront the horrific attack at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. The shooter, Robert “Robin” Westman, once walked those same halls as a student. Years of unchecked mental illness and spiritual rebellion ended in bloodshed.America is in denial. We refuse to face the truth: the transgender movement is built on a Satanic lie. No one can change the sex God gave them. Pretending otherwise doesn't heal broken souls, it destroys them and puts others in danger.Christians must speak plainly. Love does not mean affirming sin or confusion. Love means pointing people back to Christ, who alone gives us our identity. Until our nation repents and turns back to God, tragedies like this will only increase.Pray for the victims and their families.--https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

Show #243 We Are The Fallen is now available to download or generally piss off Granny. This is the most extreme show I've done in a while courtesy of Haepethral records and aided and abetted by the ugly sounds of some of my favourite new releases from False Gods, Afghan Haze, Tar Pit, Mud Valley alongside new groove laden thrash tunes from Silius.  Speaking of thrash, I'm playing Messiah for the first time in a while and a new thrash discovery for me, Drain Down as well as Sentry. Doom Charts is represented by Kitsa from last year. This show opens with a nasty dose of doomy tunes by PVRS and there's a filthy full stop with Mexican deathsters Cathartic. Among all this carnage I've ladled even more doom with a track by We Follow The Earth and added some stoner acid from Space Coke. A modicum of sanity is offered by a savage brand of grunge from Fuzz Forward.~ Wallow In Sickness ~PVRSKitsaSpace CokeFuzz ForwardDemonic PossessorDrain DownQaalmMessiahWe Follow The EarthSentryMud ValleyFalse GodsSiliusAfghan HazeTar PitCathartic

Fr. Mike shows us from our reading of Jeremiah that when we give our hearts and minds over to idols we become foolish. The way of man is not in himself, we need the Lord to guide and correct us. In Ezekiel, we read about the vision of the measuring of the temple and Fr. Mike shows us how the early Church Fathers would read the Old Testament in light of the New Testament. Today's readings are Jeremiah 10-11, Ezekiel 40, and Proverbs 15:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

On today's episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we're taking a hard look at Taylor Swift's new pornographic-themed album cover, The Life of a Showgirl. From the drinking and partying she parades as normal to her descent into porn culture, Swift has become a dangerous influence on young girls—and really, on everyone. We'll also address the cult-like following surrounding her, and why parents have a biblical responsibility to guard their children from this idolatry and from being exposed to Taylor Swift's sinful pornographic example. Darkness must be exposed, and the Word of God gives us the standard by which to measure it. We will also discuss how disgusting it is to excuse sin by simply labeling it “adult entertainment.” Unfriendly reminder: Civilization is currently collapsing. Let's actually do something about it?--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/

Deuteronomy 32:28-47 28 They are a nation without sense,    there is no discernment in them.29 If only they were wise and would understand this    and discern what their end will be!30 How could one man chase a thousand,    or two put ten thousand to flight,unless their Rock had sold them,    unless the Lord had given them up?31 For their rock is not like our Rock,    as even our enemies concede.32 Their vine comes from the vine of Sodom    and from the fields of Gomorrah.Their grapes are filled with poison,    and their clusters with bitterness.33 Their wine is the venom of serpents,    the deadly poison of cobras.34 “Have I not kept this in reserve    and sealed it in my vaults?35 It is mine to avenge; I will repay.    In due time their foot will slip;their day of disaster is near    and their doom rushes upon them.”36 The Lord will vindicate his people    and relent concerning his servantswhen he sees their strength is gone    and no one is left, slave or free.[d]37 He will say: “Now where are their gods,    the rock they took refuge in,38 the gods who ate the fat of their sacrifices    and drank the wine of their drink offerings?Let them rise up to help you!    Let them give you shelter!39 “See now that I myself am he!    There is no god besides me.I put to death and I bring to life,    I have wounded and I will heal,    and no one can deliver out of my hand.40 I lift my hand to heaven and solemnly swear:    As surely as I live forever,41 when I sharpen my flashing sword    and my hand grasps it in judgment,I will take vengeance on my adversaries    and repay those who hate me.42 I will make my arrows drunk with blood,    while my sword devours flesh:the blood of the slain and the captives,    the heads of the enemy leaders.”43 Rejoice, you nations, with his people,    for he will avenge the blood of his servants;he will take vengeance on his enemies    and make atonement for his land and people.44 Moses came with Joshua[g] son of Nun and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people. 45 When Moses finished reciting all these words to all Israel, 46 he said to them, “Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law. 47 They are not just idle words for you—they are your life. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”

Vivian Bricker challenges us to take inventory of the things we may have unknowingly placed above God. Drawing from Exodus 32, she explores how even good things—like careers, relationships, or personal goals—can become modern-day idols if they consume our attention and affection. With personal reflection and biblical truth, this devotional reminds us that true worship belongs to God alone, and that letting go of false gods leads us back into alignment with His purpose. ✨ Highlights How modern-day idols aren’t golden calves, but often good things misprioritized Why worry and anxiety can subtly become false gods in our lives The spiritual cost of putting anything above God, even unintentionally A biblical reflection on Exodus 32 and God’s response to Israel’s disobedience Encouragement to surrender idols and return to wholehearted devotion

Baal. Molech. Ashtoreth. Chemosh. Artemis.These names may not ring a bell for you, but back in biblical times, these false gods and others were known as competitors for devotion alongside our one true God — the God of Israel.If you aren't a modern-day Bible scholar or a student of ancient history, these false gods may not be familiar, but make no mistake — just because we don't use these same names for false gods today, doesn't mean our culture doesn't have any. We definitely do!Joshua 24:15 says, “Choose this day whom you will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”A “false god” is someone or something that is highly revered, followed devoutly, sacrificed for, and looked to for meaning in life and deliverance from problems.Would it surprise you to know that one of the most powerful “false gods” we can be ensnared by is found in the mirror? People are inherently self-centered and self-focused. Although we are capable of being selfless at times, when push comes to shove, we often demonstrate who we really are.We live in a fallen world, and in our efforts to rise above our circumstances and achieve the things we desire, we are all inclined to put ourselves first. If we can do something that benefits us, even at the expense of someone else, and if we know we can get away with it, we do it almost every time.God asks us to choose Him, not ourselves. Whether we're making the small everyday choices that define our character over time, or tackling the big decisions that stand out as milestones in our lives, let us turn to the Lord for guidance, and seek His glory rather than our own.Let's pray.Heavenly Father, we choose you. Remind us daily that you are sovereign, and you are the one true God. Be present in our hearts and minds and lead us in your ways, not our own.

Blake's mythology postulates an original unity of the divine, natural, and human that disintegrated into the fallen world as we know it. This began with the contraction of the false god Urizen from Eternity, whose fall parodies the Creation story in seven days. Los, the imagination, feels his female Emanation split from him. Their union results in the birth of Orc.

Send us a text Today, we explore the rise of false religions, which we feel is due to the worship of false gods. We talk about the teachings of various religions, such as Hinduism's belief in 330 million gods and reincarnation, and the Catholic Church's practices of praying to crucifixes and the Virgin Mary. We also discuss the influence of communism in North Korea, where Kim Jong II was considered a god. We put a lot of emphasis on the importance of worshipping the true and living God, for false religions lead people away from the truth. There is one definite way to never worship a false god, and that is by worshipping the One and Only True God. Come study God's Word with us today.

Evil Angels (or Fallen Angels) influence our lives and the world around us. They wage an unseen war with the Holy Angels of God in the unseen realm.  The evil angels oppose the will and plan of God, while the Holy Angles fight to carry out His will and minister to us.  But we are not just bystanders in this conflict.  Our prayers and obedience empower the Holy Angels, while our pride, false worship, and indifference can shift the battle in the favor of the evil angels.  We'll discuss these topics (along with discovering the TRUE identity of the entity worshiped by Islamics as “Allah”) in this week's podcast.For exclusive content, Q&A Videos, and private Bible study, become a Faith By Reason Patreon www.patreon.com/faithbyreason

Website: http://www.brministry.org | App: http://get.theapp.co/725cDr. Logan starts this message by sharing about what it is like to date on a spiritual level and not a physical level. At the time of this tape he had a daughter who was thinking of dating a young man. Dr. Logan shares how he coached them to date in a way that honors God and doesn't leave them with shame and guilt in their marriage. The second part of the message focuses on getting rid of the false gods in our lives that get our attention and time.

The sermon examines a moment of crisis for King Hezekiah and Judah, highlighting the dangers of relying on worldly power and alliances in the face of Assyrian aggression. It underscores the importance of unwavering faith in God, contrasting the Assyrian governor's manipulative rhetoric and blasphemous claims with the steadfastness required of God's people. Drawing parallels between ancient and modern contexts, the message cautions against idolatry—whether manifested in material possessions, political figures, or empty ideologies—and emphasizes the ultimate hope and security found only in trusting the Lord and His promises, ultimately pointing to the sufficiency of Christ as the only true source of salvation and hope.

The Epistle of Jeremiah (found sometimes as Baruch 6) is illumined by reference to Matthew 6:21, Numbers 21:4-9, 4 Kingdoms/2 Kings 18:4, Jeremiah 2:13, 1 Corinthians 8 and 10, Philippians 3:18-19, and Colossians 3:5. We apply the prophet's words regarding idolatry of man-made things to present day idolatries of various sorts, and also consider how icons are meant to point us to the living God, not to distract us from the One who alone is good.

It seems more Christians are discovering how awful Calvinism is.

What happens when we choose false gods over the true King? We explore the stark contrast between Judah's faithful King Asa and Israel's seven increasingly corrupt rulers. At its heart, this is a powerful reminder that who we worship determines our path—faithful devotion to God leads to peace and flourishing, while false worship spirals into chaos and destruction. Listen now to understand the good news: Jesus still invites us to live under His faithful kingship today.

Fr. Mike breaks down the battle against Midian and explains why God would allow destruction and warfare that can seem brutal. He also highlights how we can learn from Israel's weakness by destroying the things in our lives that lead us away from God. Today's readings are Numbers 31, Deuteronomy 30, and Psalm 116.

In this powerful exploration of Exodus, we dive deep into the story of the Ten Plagues of Egypt, uncovering profound truths about God's nature and our own spiritual journey. As we witness God's relentless pursuit of His people's freedom, we're challenged to examine the false gods in our own lives. Are we, like Pharaoh, hardening our hearts against God's call? Or are we open to seeing His wonders, even in difficult circumstances? This message reminds us that God is greater than any false deity or worldly power, and He's working tirelessly to dismantle the things that enslave us. We're encouraged to shift our perspective, viewing life's challenges not as plagues, but as wonders that God uses to shape and free us. This timeless story serves as both a warning against stubbornness and an invitation to experience God's transformative power in our lives.

The Impossible Prize In this episode, we explore The Impossible Prize: A Theology of Addiction, a forthcoming book that examines addiction not just as a habit or illness, but as a form of misplaced worship. We discuss how addiction draws us toward false gods, demanding our devotion and shaping our lives in ways we barely recognize. More than a personal struggle, addiction weaves itself into families, communities, and churches—warping trust, distorting love, and hollowing out the soul. How can we reclaim what has been lost? How do we confront addiction not just physically and mentally, but as a deeply spiritual battle? Join us as we dig into these questions and consider a way forward, one rooted in truth, grace, and the renewal of the whole person.

Throughout history, mountains have held deep spiritual significance—serving as meeting places between heaven and earth, battlegrounds of supernatural warfare, and stages for divine encounters. From the Garden of Eden to Mount Sinai, from the transfiguration of Christ to the crucifixion, the Bible is filled with moments where mountains play a pivotal role in God's plan for humanity. But why? What is the deeper connection between these sacred heights and the cosmic battle between good and evil?In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer welcomes back pastor, author, and theologian Doug Van Dorn for an eye-opening discussion on biblical mountains, the divine council, and the supernatural forces that have shaped human history.

And the question becomes, why would that be? And that's where you need to understand first of all, that God is meeting with people on all of these mountains.”The "axis mundi," a concept describing mountains as divine meeting points, reveals their role as a bridge between heaven and earth.Mountains hold significance not only in the Bible but also in global mythologies, including Mount Olympus and sacred Native American sites.Isaiah 14 introduces the “mount of assembly,” linking biblical mountains to divine councils where heavenly beings gather.[5:10] Divine Council and Mythological ConnectionsMountains serve as the setting for the divine council, where God meets with angels and heavenly beings to rule over creation.Ancient mythologies mirror biblical narratives, with figures like Zeus and Baal representing the same rebellious entity—Satan.Mount Zaphon, recognized as Baal's sacred mountain, connects directly to the divine council and the spiritual battle against false gods.The fall of Lucifer in Isaiah 14 echoes the rebellion of spiritual beings, linking the serpent in Eden to later deceptions throughout history.[17:42] Eden and the Divine CouncilThe Garden of Eden is depicted as a mountain, a place where heaven and earth intersect.Adam and Eve's use of fig leaves for covering may symbolize an early attempt to seek refuge in fallen supernatural beings.Satan's jealousy over humanity's God-given authority fueled his deception in Eden, setting the stage for spiritual warfare.The Edenic narrative connects to a larger biblical pattern of rebellion, redemption, and the ongoing struggle between good and evil.[24:01] The Post-Flood Rebellion and the Return of the NephilimFollowing the flood, fallen angels were imprisoned in "gloomy chains of darkness," as described in 2 Peter 2:4 and Jude 6.Despite this judgment, the Nephilim reappear after the flood, indicating a renewed rebellion by supernatural forces.Ancient texts, including the Book of Enoch, describe how 200 fallen angels conspired to corrupt humanity.The struggle between God's people and these rebellious beings continues throughout Scripture, reinforcing the need for spiritual vigilance.[36:29] Moses, Mount Sinai, and the Law as a Divine RevelationMount Sinai is a sacred site where God revealed His law to Moses, establishing a covenant with Israel.Patterns in Scripture link Sinai to Eden and the future Temple, each acting as a central place of divine presence and instruction.The tabernacle mirrors the structure of the mountain, symbolizing levels of access to God's holiness.The law delivered at Sinai not only governed Israel but also foreshadowed Christ's fulfillment of righteousness.[40:16] The Golden Calf and IdolatryThe Israelites, fearing God's presence, attempted to worship Him through an idol, reshaping Him into something they could control.[41:02] Doug: “Idolatry is we're going to make that God that's up there come and be in this calf, so that we can somehow manipulate him because that's too terrifying for us.”The golden calf represented a common struggle—seeking to domesticate God rather than submitting to His true nature.Idolatry in all forms distorts faith, leading people to trust in tangible symbols rather than divine truth.Understanding this historical moment sheds light on the continuous human tendency to replace God with lesser things.[43:58] Jesus' Ministry and Supernatural BattlesEach phase of Jesus' ministry strategically dismantles Satan's authority over the world.[48:27] Doug: “Jesus's ministry is a multiple phased attack on Satan, and you have to understand some cosmic geography, and some of the motifs we've been talking about here are also very helpful.”The region of Bashan, known as "the land of the serpent," becomes the battleground where Christ begins His campaign against darkness.Key moments—including His temptation in the wilderness, His healing miracles, and His transfiguration—symbolize a reclaiming of territory from the enemy.Through these events, Jesus openly declares war on the forces of darkness, establishing His dominion over both heaven and earth.[52:48] Jesus' Death, Resurrection, and AscensionCalvary stands as the cosmic mountain where Jesus' sacrifice defeats sin and death.Descending into Hades, Christ proclaims victory and liberates those who awaited redemption.His resurrection seals His triumph, securing authority over all spiritual forces.By ascending to the right hand of God, Jesus asserts His role as the ultimate conqueror over evil.[57:10] Practical Implications of a Supernatural WorldviewThe desire for control, often expressed through worry and fear, stems from spiritual forces working against faith.Trusting in God's sovereignty dismantles the illusion of control and realigns believers with divine truth.Spiritual warfare manifests not only in extraordinary events but in daily battles over faith, trust, and obedience.Understanding Christ's victory allows believers to walk in peace, embracing their role in God's kingdom rather than being consumed by speculation about the future. About Doug Van Dorn Doug Van Dorn is a pastor, author, and theologian known for his deep exploration of biblical
