33. The Great Commission and the Cosmic Reclaiming of the Nations

In today’s episode of Wise Counsel, we explore Matthew 28:16–20, the Great Commission—not just as a call to missions, but as a declaration of cosmic authority and spiritual warfare. With insights from Michael Heiser’s Deuteronomy 32 worldview and "Reversing Hermon," we uncover the deeper theological meaning behind Jesus' command to "make disciples of all nations." Scholars like N.T. Wright and Craig S. Keener help us situate this moment within the broader biblical and historical context, revealing how Jesus' authority confronts both earthly and supernatural powers. We’ll also reflect on how this moment ties into the spiritual geography of Mount Hermon, potentially transforming a site of rebellion into a launching point for global redemption.
