Wow so needed! I came back just in time, thank you for this Pastor Andrew, from Norway. I now wish to find community here but having online has been very helpful while finding such. Missing church from back home in the PNW. Support what you and your beautiful wife are doing ❤ thankful for you! 🎉
YES! Dr. Michael S. Heiser’s scholarly work in the Unseen Realm REVOLUTIONIZED the way i read my bible! Thank you Pastor Andrew for having the courage & faith to preach these truths about Gods infallible word! Glory to God! I salute 🫡 you sir! Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for equipping your Church with revelation of WHO YOU ARE & who we are in YOU! The gospel is SOOOO MUCH DEEPER THAN WE COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED!!!
Too often, Christians accept an overly simplified, un-nuanced, and poorly described glimpse into the spiritual warfare we are called to engage with. The rich biblical descriptions are missed. This message, only scratches the surface - but it is an itch that is sorely needed. I hope it inspires more people to study deeper, to know God more, and engage in the spiritual battle solidly - and not put our hopes or targets on people.
Spiritual realm.. you brought up Hollywood and how much they produce. Then you spoke about the different names of angels, good and evil ones alike. when I watch a demonic movie that is inviting spirits into my home and in my mind should I be distinguishing the different demons that are lingering around my space? I just want you to see where confusion lies amongst a person who is just learning this subject. In my humble opinion, my teacher Jesus Christ revealed to me through the Holy Spirit that what I speak is truth. When speaking of the spiritual realm we have to abstain from anything that is not from God. Including Hollywood. These movies you speak about like the conjuring or exorcism and laughing about it might I add is not a laughing matter. These movies were made to incite demonic entities into the homes of America but Christian’s don’t know that and that’s a shame. I know I know you can’t scare the church members and tell them all the truth if you know it because they’ll stop coming. People in Portland Oregon like to have their belly’s rubbed and ears tickled but everyday were closer to death. If the early Christian’s spoke out publicly and in the church against demonic entities and sin how much more should we if our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ makes His return
Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore God exalted him, Jesus, to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God our Father, YHWH. The Hebrew word, Eloheim, is used 2500x to describe both good and bad spiritual beings. This word is translated God in English. It is a spiritual category, and not a NAME. Yahweh is an eloheim, a spiritual being.. But there is only one GOD. Isaiah 45-46.. God says I am YHWH and there is no other being like me. There are many other spiritual beings but none is greater than Yahweh our creator GOD. The spiritual realm affects the natural realm. These realms interact and overlap. 1 Corinthians 10..flee from idolatry.. food that offered to idols is offered to demons.. Do not participate in the worship of demons. If the food had been offered in a temple to demons and the host tells you that it was once offered to demons do not eat it. Acts 19:13.. The evil spirit replied to the humans who tried to exorcise the evil spirits. Those who had been practicing sorcery repented of their practices. Acts 13..Paul and Barnabas confront a sorcerer. The tools of sorcery are not allowed to be used by followers of YHWH. Exodus 20..I am YHWH your eloheim who brought you out of Egypt.. You must not worship any other gods. These beings want man's worship. They are pagan evil spiritual beings: they are described as Thrones, Kingdoms, powers.. See also Ephesians 6: For we wrestle not against blood and flesh but against spiritual principalities and rulers in the unseen realm.. Psalm 82..and God said to god.. God takes His place Psalm 89..holy ones, heavenly beings Job 1..members of the heavenly court, among them is the accuser named Satan.. Daniel 10..Daniel has been praying for help.. God sends an angel who tells D. your request has been heard in Heaven.. But the spirit or Prince of Persia fought against me.. Michael came to fight the Prince of Persia 2 Kings 6..In the hills surrounding the city there were unseen spiritual forces, chariots of fire. These forces were from YHWH and they were on Israel's side. Evil: is a prince of the power of the air
