Cosmic Spiritual Warfare Explained: Eden, Nephilim, Babel, and the Victory of Jesus

The unseen battle is more real than most of us realize — and the Bible has a lot more to say about it than we've been taught.Dr. Joel Muddamalle, director of theology and research at Proverbs 31 Ministries, joins Joshua Lewis to unpack the cosmic spiritual warfare woven throughout Scripture — from the Garden of Eden to the cross of Christ. Drawing on his PhD research in biblical theology under Dr. Patrick Schreiner and the late Dr. Michael Heiser, Joel walks us through the divine council worldview, the two-family household of God, and why the supernatural rebellion described in Genesis 6 and Deuteronomy 32:8–9 isn't just ancient history — it's the backstory of the gospel itself.We cover:-Eden as the mountain of God and the original household of the divine council-The sons of God (Ben Elohim), the Nephilim, and what Genesis 6 is actually describing-The Tower of Babel, the scattering of nations, and the gods placed over them-How Christ's death, resurrection, and ascension disarms the rulers and authorities-What spiritual warfare actually looks like in the everyday life of a believer0:00 – Introduction4:10 – Book’s purpose12:13 – Numb to supernatural18:56 – Eden as temple24:11 – God's two-family household32:03 – “Let us” debate42:43 – Genesis 6 Nephilim54:00 – Ancient myths context1:06:05 – Babel and nations1:16:40 – Jesus and powers1:29:50 – Spiritual warfare today1:40:29 – Closing thoughtsABOUT THE GUEST:📖BOOK https://a.co/d/0i4GE3x5Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.
