Episode #066: What Is The Divine Council & The Unseen Realm?

Is the spiritual world just God, Satan, angels, and demons? In the first of a special two-part series, Clint Archer and Will Brannon pull back the curtain on the "Unseen Realm" to explore the complex hierarchy of the celestial world.Starting with the provocative imagery of Psalm 82, the guys break down the Hebrew concept of Elohim—a term that describes more than just the Creator. Discover how the Bible describes an "Assembly of the Holy Ones" and a "Divine Council" that God involves in the governance of the universe. From the "Watchers" in Daniel to the "Prince of Persia," Clint and Will discuss how God disinherited the nations at the Tower of Babel, only to launch a secret mission to re-inherit them through Christ.In this episode:   -The Elohim Problem: Why the Bible uses the word "gods" for created beings without being polytheistic.   -The Divine Assembly: Understanding the heavenly host as God's "Secret Service" and administrative council.   -Cosmic Geography: How rebellious spiritual powers were allotted to the nations and why Michael is the Prince of Israel.   -The Hidden Mystery: Why the "rulers of this age" wouldn't have crucified Jesus if they had truly understood God’s plan.Join Clint and Will as they bridge the gap between ancient Hebrew context and your modern Bible to reveal a world far more active—and crowded—than you ever imagined.
