Egypt's Retreat and the Emergence of New Kingdoms in the Early Iron Age AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed; After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Following the collapse, Egypt, despite surviving, merely coped and retreated from the international stage, entering the chaotic Third Intermediate Period. The resulting power vacuum allowed the emergence of smaller kingdoms like Israel, Judah, and Moab. Archaeology uses Old Testament texts as guideposts for the First Millennium BC. The Philistines are identified as the Sea Peoples group called the Peleset, evidenced by DNA extracted from Ashkelon burials.

Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall, but God's kingdom and God's throne shall stand forever!

Nebuchadnezzar's testimony in Daniel 4 reveals how God deals with human pride. As the most powerful ruler of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar received a troubling dream about a great tree being cut down, which Daniel interpreted as God's coming judgment on the king's pride. After boasting about his achievements, Nebuchadnezzar was humbled by God, living like an animal for seven periods until he acknowledged God's sovereignty. This powerful account teaches us three crucial truths: God is great and deserves our humility, God is glorious and worthy of our worship, and God is good, showing mercy even to those who have rebelled against Him.https://www.ankenyfree.church

In the latest episode of our podcast, we delve into the complex interplay between technology, society, and spirituality. Titled "The Four Kingdoms and the Beasts," this episode explores the implications of the digital ID rollout and its connection to the pandemic and mass vaccination efforts.As the world becomes increasingly digital, the concept of a digital ID raises significant questions about privacy, control, and individual freedom. We discuss how the UK plans to implement a digital ID system by 2029, which many are comparing to the "mark of the beast" mentioned in the Bible. This discussion leads us to examine the historical context of such systems and how they relate to current events.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Check out our website:https://www.therealistthevisionary.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Follow us on IGFollow Us on TikTok

Faith in the Furnace explores how Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego demonstrated unwavering faith when faced with King Nebuchadnezzar's demand to worship a golden idol. Their three-dimensional faith—assurance in God's ability, confidence in His deliverance, and submission to His will regardless of outcome—led to divine intervention in the fiery furnace. This biblical account challenges us to examine our own 'God Plus' tendencies, where we want God alongside comfort, approval, or success. True faith means standing firm for God even when everyone else bows down to cultural idols, knowing that God doesn't abandon us in our trials but joins us in them.https://www.ankenyfree.church

The hosts swap stories about family connections in Hollywood, dive into James Comey's legal troubles, and unravel the absurdities of FBI undercover operations on January 6th. Humor meets hard truth as they roast liberal struggle sessions, Serena Williams' cotton outrage, and even a self-proclaimed African “tribe” claiming land in Scotland. Between sponsor plugs, scam-baiting adventures, and whip-cracking science lessons, this menagerie of Badlands Media hosts—joined by guest Jonathan Drake—keep the laughs and the red pills flowing.

Daniel 2 reveals God's sovereignty over all earthly kingdoms through Nebuchadnezzar's dream of a statue representing four successive empires. When faced with an impossible demand to reveal and interpret the king's dream, Daniel seeks God in prayer with his friends. God reveals both the dream and its meaning, showing how all human kingdoms will eventually fall while God's kingdom, represented by a stone that becomes a mountain, will endure forever. This narrative challenges us to place our ultimate allegiance in God's eternal kingdom rather than temporary earthly powers, finding courage to live as citizens of heaven even while serving faithfully in this world.https://www.ankenyfree.church

Mass hysteria has taken over the most veteranized believers, and extreme emotionalism now reigns as king. It reminds me exactly of what happened that day in Ephesus after Paul cast out a spirit of divination from a girl. "And the whole city was filled with confusion...they rushed with one accord into the theatre...Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused: and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together." (Acts 19:29,32). I cannot think of a better descriptive picture of what "Christian" landscape has now sadly become. Its our time right now to focus on only one Person...Jesus Christ, who's been such a good friend to us, who has walked us through everything, who fought all our battles and won them for us. Who loved us when no one else did, who forgave us and called us His friends. There is only one Person that we must behold now, "and not another." Kingdoms come and kingdoms go, people live and people die, but Who and what is eternal is our sight. Never forget Him for one moment, never take the eyes of your love off of Jesus Christ. One glance away is all it takes to begin the fading away of His Presence."All that is not God is death.”― George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons

We look at this “extra” signature Psalm of David, alongside his story in 1 Samuel/1 Kingdoms 17, and with reference to 1 Corinthians 1:22-27. In these we find a particular Christian theme, connected with the triumph of the Holy Cross: God uses what we consider weak in order to bring about His mighty deeds!

King of Kings | Eugene Oludhe

Living faithfully in a challenging world requires wisdom from biblical examples like Daniel. When taken into Babylonian captivity, Daniel faced systematic attempts to change his identity, beliefs, and lifestyle. Yet he strategically maintained his convictions while still functioning within the system he couldn't escape. He identified non-negotiables, respectfully proposed alternatives, and trusted God with the results. Today, we face similar pressures to assimilate to cultural values at odds with our faith. By being intentional about what forms our thinking, identifying our non-negotiables, and looking for strategic alternatives, we can maintain our integrity while still engaging effectively with the world around us.https://www.ankenyfree.church

Worldbuilding. It's one of the most talked about aspects of running TTRPGs, as it is the sandbox into which you will throw your party to adventure in.

Nathan Busenitz • Mark 6:7–6:30 • Sermon Notes (Video)

This message focused on the significance of biblical prophecy in revealing God's plan for the world, with special attention to Daniel, Ezekiel, and Israel's history. We explored how ancient kingdoms rose and fell through human ambition, yet God's purposes remain sovereign. The discussions highlighted Israel's promises, failures, and forsaken relationship with God, while contrasting the Church's position in Christ. Themes of idolatry, submission, and spiritual separation from the world were emphasized, along with the reminder that Christ's return will conclude the “times of the Gentiles.” The conversation underscored the need for faith, humility, and reliance on God's grace rather than human effort.Themes:Prophecy as God's revelation of His plan (Daniel, Ezekiel, Revelation)Earthly kingdoms built on ambition and chaos vs. God's sovereignty (Genesis 11; Assyria, Egypt, Babylon)Israel's promises vs. the Church's position in Christ (Hosea 1:9–11; Romans 7)Israel's forsaken relationship due to failure of leaders and peopleGod's patience, long-suffering, and call to repentanceDangers of idolatry and backsliding, importance of godly sorrow (Exodus; 1 John 2:15–17)The law exposing sin but not producing righteousnessSpiritual separation from the world and living in submission to GodGod's communication with individuals during times of darknessThe “times of the Gentiles” and Christ's imminent returnScripture References:Daniel; Ezekiel; Hosea 1:9–11; Genesis 11; Romans 7; Revelation; 1 John 2:15–17; Exodus

Matthew 2:1-18 | Luke Peterson

If you've ever heard Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, you know it sounds like music going to war. It begins hushed, almost like a prayer whispered through the strings. But even in the softness there's unease, like the air before a storm, as if the music itself knows that conflict is coming. And then the…

We continue our two-part conversation with Dr. Ross Cordy, Pacific Island Hawaiian-Pacific studies at University of Hawai‘i West O‘ahu. Trained as both an archaeologist and ethnohistorian, Dr. Cordy's specialty is reconstructing the history of Hawai‘i as told from multiple data sources. In the second half of our discussion, we consider settlement patterns across the Hawaiian archipelago, as well as the rise of countries and kingdoms within the islands themselves. We also talk about the significance of cultural jewels like Wai‘anae and Kukaniloko on O‘ahu and the histories of places in Micronesia.

This week's episode is a wild ride through Daniel chapter 2—and boy, does it get exciting! King Nebuchadnezzar has a nightmare so scary it makes him furious. He demands that his wisest helpers tell him not only what his dream means, but also what the dream was! Yikes. Nobody could do that—except for one person God had prepared… Daniel!

In this episode, we confront the reality of spiritual warfare—how the enemy uses deception, accusation, and temptation to gain footholds in our lives.From persistent sin to generational strongholds, we explore biblical signs of demonic influence and share a powerful testimony of healing and deliverance.Most importantly, you'll learn how to walk in true freedom through repentance, renouncing lies, and being filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus didn't just save you—He came to set you free.Support the show

A Kingdom Divided | 'Kings and Kingdoms' Week 6

Daniel 8 paints a vivid picture of the ram and the goat — symbols of kingdoms and powers that rise and fall. These ancient visions don't just belong to history; they point ahead to events that echo through our world right now. As nations realign and global systems tighten their grip, the warnings in Daniel begin to sound more and more like headlines we see today. From the rise of powerful leaders to the foreshadowing of the Antichrist, these prophecies remind us that the stage is being set for what Scripture has already revealed. The message carries us straight into the heart of end times prophecy, weaving Daniel's vision together with Revelation 13, 2 Thessalonians 2, and Matthew 24. Signs of the rapture, the rise of a global system, and the call to remain watchful and faithful are all there. It's a wake-up call that what was written thousands of years ago is coming alive in our generation — and it points us to the urgency of clinging to faith as we await the return of Christ. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
