    Jul 2 2024

    Send Us Topics + Questions

    Can Christians truly be possessed by demons, or is there a more nuanced reality to spiritual warfare? In this thought-provoking episode of the Psych and Theo podcast, Tim and Sam finish their series by tackling some of the most pressing questions on demonic influence. With insights from Dr. Heiser and Dr. Appleby, we uncover why the term "demon possession" might not be biblically accurate and prefer the term "demonized" to reflect different levels of demonic activity. We explore how Christians, though sealed by the Holy Spirit, can still face demonic influence and what that means for their faith journey.

    Furthermore, we navigate the fascinating world of angelic beings and their roles in spiritual warfare. Ever wondered about the scriptural basis for invoking angels or the hierarchy of heavenly hosts like the seraphim? We'll address these topics and delve into pathways that open doors to spiritual attacks, such as involvement in the occult, sexual sin, and trauma. By emphasizing the importance of testing spirits with scripture and the counsel of believers, we aim to provide a balanced and biblically grounded approach to understanding the supernatural. Tune in for a comprehensive and engaging discussion that will leave you with a deeper understanding of spiritual warfare and the protection offered by your faith.

    34:32 - Spiritual Warfare in Daily Life

    Do you ever wonder how ancient rebellions shape our modern spiritual battles? Join us as we unpack the three key rebellions in the Old Testament—Genesis 3, Genesis 6, and the Tower of Babel—and explore their lasting impact on our spiritual landscape. We discuss how these events introduced sin, corrupted humanity, and led nations astray, making sense of the concept of territorial spirits and their influence on human affairs today.

    Witness the unparalleled power and authority of Jesus as we highlight his role in inaugurating the Kingdom of God. We contrast Jesus' seamless exorcisms with the complex rituals of the time, revealing how his actions were seen as clear signs of the Messiah's arrival. Dive into the intense spiritual confrontations Jesus faced, including his temptation by Satan in the wilderness and the unfolding of God's divine plan through his ministry.

    Discover the true essence of spiritual warfare from a Christian perspective, where the primary mission is advancing the gospel rather than engaging in dramatic encounters with demonic entities. We break down spiritual warfare into different levels, emphasizing the importance of the church body putting on the full armor of God as described in Ephesians 6. Learn why preaching the gospel is the ultimate weapon in this cosmic battle and how our daily lives play a crucial role in this ongoing spiritual war.
