VFTB 008: Dr. Michael S. Heiser — The Divine Council

THE OLD Testament is a record of rebellion. Fallen angels, placed over the nations by God after the Tower of Babel incident, led the peoples under their control in a war of extermination against the one nation reserved by Yahweh for Himself.In other words, Baal, Asherah, Molech, Chemosh, Dagon, and the other gods who bedeviled the ancient Hebrews weren't simply constructs of wood and stone; they were real. They still are.Dr. Michael S. Heiser, scholar of the Bible and Ancient Near Eastern languages and history, shares the biblical evidence for the Divine Council paradigm and explains why it matters to Christians today.For a more in-depth introduction to the concepts, read the information Mike's posted at his Divine Council website.Come visit our Facebook page, and check out the like-minded Christian podcasters at the Revelations Radio Network.Click the arrow on the player below to listen now, or right-click (control-click if you have a Mac) the “download” link to save the mp3 file to your hard drive.
