38. The Divine Council Worldview

In this episode of Wise Counsel, we explore the Divine Council worldview—a biblically grounded yet often overlooked theme that illuminates God’s authority, the spiritual realm, and our role in God’s cosmic plan. With help from Michael Heiser, whose scholarship on Psalm 82 and related passages has reshaped how we understand the unseen realm, we look at the heavenly council where God presides over spiritual beings. Far from polytheism, this concept reinforces Yahweh’s unmatched sovereignty. It also equips us to better understand spiritual warfare, justice, and our own kingdom authority as believers in Christ.
