Hi. Thank you I needed another witness saying the same thing I was saying so that they both can see that we are not here to change the world! We are here to spread the gospel and teach the Love of Jesus Christ by his word. People are very confused about Who God is and it makes me ache for them and then I have to take abuse from them because of their ignorance. For instance one person says she was in warfare against the devil and on Gods side but she didnt know it. Also that in order to get her son back she will have to change this world and she is confused and another person is telling her some vanity about A message from God for her life and its sick man! So thank you for this I linked it to them both. I prefer Chuck Missler to study but I think its too academic for them also long winded and you know young people very short on discipline and attention spans.
In all of the years I have followed your lectures, watched your videos and read your publications, I believe that all them have been worthy works and good confessions before Almighty God. But this is different from all of the others: " What do the powers of darkness fear? They fear their own destruction, which means they fear the success of the Great Commission." I think that simple statement is the most profound thing you have ever said. God Bless you Dr Heiser.
@@Esico6 This Christian speaker seems to know what he is talking about. This puts the verses around Marrhew 8:30-32 into perspective --- regarding why Jesus did not cast the demons into hell yet --- sent them into pigs instead.
Straight to the point - we win by achieving critical mass (fullness of the Gentiles). Let’s preach in the workplaces . I did and lost job - probably because of that, but maybe there was that one person who had to listen. If so, mission completed. Took me five long years to preach the gospel to my wife and countless quarrels, but now she reads the Bible more than me ! A Catholic I know finally opened his eyes to what the Catholic Church really does and now he brings true gospel to his family ! It’s sort of addictive. Glory to God !
Amen, Jesus is the Image of the Triune Nature of the Godhead. And yet the Father is Glorified while all three are equally God. Jesus was the most Humbled while the Holy Spirit contains the meekness the Gentleness Purity Wisdom Joy Peace Love etc. This is why Jesus said He will be filled to the fullness by the Holy Spirit. No other Man will ever be filled to the Fullness as Jesus Christ, because He alone is God. It fits so simply.
@@shadowlands8490 ... Every genuine believer has the same amount of the Holy Spirit. Jesus always did the will of the father. He was not a slave to his flesh. There was nothing that hindered him from operating in the spirit always. We must contend with our flesh and crucify it daily. Additionally, we are not a part of the godhead. We have no idea what the specific will of the father is and often get it wrong. When our bodies are finally redeem and we see Jesus face to face we will no longer have to contend with our flesh and we will know, even as we are known. We’ve been given all of the Holy Spirit. That lack of “fullness” as you describe it is not because we have been short changed. It is only our flesh that gets in the way. The more we submit to the will of our father in humility then the more we can experience that same fullness.

Thank you for your ministry and commitment to Scripture, Dr. Heiser. What a breath of fresh air! I'm continuing to pray for both you and Trey. God bless you.
I like how he calls himself Dr. Heiser!!!! He has a PhD in the Hebrew Bible, and yet no one could tell what that stands for. If your knowledge consists in a religious interpretation of the texts, then his PhD has absolutely zero value. There are a lot of people who preach irrational belief, including multi-millionaire megachurch entertainers who call themselves Doctor.
Thank you, Dr. Heiser, for going straight to the Septuagent (sp) to nail things down. I know evil seeks to deceive and confuse. Your scholarship helps us stay on track. Continued prayers for you!
Thank you Dr. Heiser. It’s easy to get caught up in the politics of spiritual warfare and lose sight of the actual work. In a time where there’s hopelessness, it’s comforting to know we CAN do something…share the good news. SIMPLE.
"get caught up in the politics of spiritual warfare" *Thats the crux of the entire deceit of this Halloween idea of spiritual warfare. We are not WARRING against demons nor are we warring against principalities. There is a struggle for a supremacy of WILLS. Its the OBJECTIVES of those WILLS that facilitate such a struggle. I look at it this way. As long as people view these things through the lens of 'Spiritual Warfare' it tells me one thing. They do so because they cant quantify what they mean when they say that and usually what people think they mean when they say this is absolute non-sense which takes us back to the problem - People dont REALLY understand what this is and as long as we're calling it by its most ABSTRACT qualifier it means we're not getting any better at understanding it. If you look at what Paul qualifies as being 'Strongholds' these are not SPIRITUAL POWERS. They are not DEMONIC HORDES. they are NOT FALLEN ANGELS. They are simply THOUGHTS that are OPPOSED to the MIND of GOD which gives such ENTITIES a foothold or a stronghold. Its about WHAT WE 'IMAGINE' or IMAGE to be TRUE.*
@@rjabraham Im not disagreeing with Ruth. Im frustrated that we keep going around in circles with subjects like this that if they were any more clear, any more simple they would have to be put in another book labeled 'Spirituality for Dummies.'

And to an extent THEMATIC thought can be seen throughout Biblical texts but thats the WIDE 10,000 MILES HIGH VIEW. We need to be better at the micro-view of Scripture. Paul is REALLY good at explaining himself when we dont interject THEMATIC or ICONIC misconceptions about 'WARFARE' into texts that are simply talking about the dangers of NOT being STEWARDS of our THOUGHTS. My comment was not intended to be one of disagreement with what Ruth said.
I hope everything is going well with you brother Heiser. I heard you're dealing with cancer. Im praying for you. Ive learned a great deal from your videos. God bless.
When the principalities have infiltrated every aspect of our lives, it is so good to hear things such as this. You have a great way if explaining the Bible and theology. Thank you for all you do.
Mindblowing. I thought of this in the depths of my mind before. I understand. They aren't yet defeated, though they can be cast out. When a demon is removed and that person is saved, they fear that Christ's return is near. Good stuff.
Indeed our fight is not against flesh...it is important to remember this... sometimes we forget to be conscious of the invisible kingdoms and put our atention in the material world with all kind of pleasures and distractions (entretainment would be the proper word ;) ), but if we let the Holy Spirit guide us the results are VERY different... Lord let us be useful to your Kingdom and may the Great Commission be Accomplished! Glory to the Most High!
With all due respect brother as one that's suffered it most of my life and am only now learning how to counter intrusive thoughts and whispers, there is more to this than you speak on.
First, may God bless you Dr. Heiser and heal you. I'm praying for you. Secondly, you are correct, the powers of darkness seek to extend and expand their dominions. Extend in terms of time, and expand in terms of physical geography.
G’day Dr H, another beautifully clarified presentation. Your videos are a very important leg of the ways I’m learning to understand scripture. Thank you sir! P.S I hope that you are feeling better mate!
That was great Dr Heiser !!! Yes, we as Christian warfare practicers need to (truly) look at what the Bible considers warfare. -The Great Commission-. When I 🙏 my daily intercessory prayers -you-are ALWAYS on my list. I 🙏 all is progressing well for you, your wife & kids. 🙏’s continue..till you get the victory. Shalom to you all.
Michael, you have been such a blessing to me and so many people I know. Thank you for following God’s call on your life! Praying for your treatment! Can’t wait to meet you someday.
Great theology here. When the disciples came back from being sent out, they were rejoicing that they were able to cast out devils-something never recorded in the history of mankind before. But Jesus said, "Rejoice not that the devil's are subject to you, but rather that your names are written in the lamb's book of life." This teaching is in perfect accord with Christ's words, and there is no higher praise it can be given. Beautiful job Mike.
*Ya but none of that has anything to do with spiritual warfare. That deals with the Authority of the Kingdom of God being invested in the Name of Jesus. You do not have to WAR against things that are already SUBDUED and therefore made SUBJECT.*
@@thetruthchannel349 Hmm 🧐 interesting. Can you expand on that some by comparing authority of the kingdom with spiritual warfare? What's the difference in your view?
@@leedatsit1799 *The example of the authority of the Kingdom is see by observing the works of Jesus. The examples are exhaustive. Jesus did not war with Legion. They immediately recognized Who He was, the Authority He carried and they only sought to negotiate where they might re-located when Jesus commanded them to depart. These things were subjugated by Jesus. ALL things are subdued BY Him. There is no WARFARE. You have to understand the difference between Power and Authority. When a traffic cop goes out in the middle of a busy intersection and holds his hand up for traffic to stop is he exerting Power or Authority? The cars dont stop because he is exerting POWER. The drivers put on their brakes and come to a stop because they RECOGNIZE the AUTHORITY.*
@@leedatsit1799 *You will NEVER see the concept of 'SPIRITUAL WARFARE' being addressed by ANY Apostle as warring with demons, angels or Principalities. If you read II Cor. 10 very carefully Paul is specific as to what a 'STRONGHOLD' is and HOW a 'STRONGHOLD' is brought down. Strongholds are THOUGHTS that exalt themselves above the Knowledge of God or in other words the MIND of GOD. One reason the Church is so entirely screwed up is because they are beating at the air with 'In the Name of Jesus's' instead of doing what JESUS said 'Taking into CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT and BRINGING THEM INTO SUBJECTION to the KNOWLEDGE of GOD.' In Ephesians 4 Paul tells us how we do that - BY CREATING a SHIELD of BELIEFS. We should have SPECIFIC BELIEFS for EVERY SINGLE CONTRADICTORY THOUGHT that could POSSIBLY COME. This is 'SPIRITUAL WARFARE'*
Finally, I found a teacher I can listen to who looks deeper into original languages of Scripture AND thinks about them to consider what the Spirit was speaking to us. (The way I have been led to AND gain the most lasting revelation and spiritual food.) Thank you! God bless your health and give you time ro continue teaching us.
Thank you for not putting a cessationist spin on it by including the reality and experience of us missionaries. It's important we highlight the foundational meaning of scripture without dismissing other realities. Blessings of health and healing to you.

Another excellent video, thank you brother. I want you to know how much I appreciate your time and the effort you put into your ministry. Thank you for your research, for the time you've spent away from your family. Thank you for the long nights studying, reading, traveling, etc. I can't imagine how much time that involves to get where you are now. I have much, much less time in schooling but I know how hard it was for me working full time with a family to achieve the little bit of education I did. My hats off to you sir, and my sincere gratitude for the help your work has been personally to me. To all the countless other people I listen to, and read from that give homage to your work it testifies of God's presence in your life. God bless you brother!
You are much loved among God’s people brother. I pray for God’s gifts of healing and faith to come to you this day. Thank you for so freely giving and enriching our lives with the knowledge God has given you of His Word. The hours you have spent with Him and studying His Word have not been in vain. You make us thirsty for more of Him. The blessings of the Lord overtake you in every way!!! Peace to you~🙏🕊💜🕊
It makes to much sense... I can't even handle it all. Our churches are full of pastors who don't teach anything. You can learn more here in 10min than you can on a Sunday morning.
I recently returned from New Orleans and I believe a close friend and I are dealing with spiritual warfare. Something has attached to him and he is going crazy. I love him dearly. I believe he is my spiritual soulmate. However I have evolved from great trauma and I am dealing with the negativity it is causing in my life. Please pray for me and him. I will overcome this with Gods strength but I am afraid for him. I can no longer be with him and I have blocked him on my phone because this energy is dark and strong. Please pray for us. Thank you Michael you have given me what I prayed for in getting to know my creator better.
God bless you and your family! Thank you so much, you are such a wise person, I learned very much from you, about our GOD and our MESSIAH , and the HOLY SPIRIT !
9:27 ROFL I never imagined I would here the words, "I know spiritual warfare sounds sexy" from a professor during a theological lecture. He's got a point tho. 🤣
Hope you are well Micheal Heavenly Father thank You for all You have done and are doing through and with Michael We trust You to continue to fulfill Your plan in his life to Your glory In Jesus name Amen
Thank you, Dr Heiser, for your way of speaking truth plainly. There is nothing more powerful than simple words inspired by simple trust. And by 'simple' I definitely don't mean vacuous, I mean uncomplicated. You convict and inspire me and I love you for it 🙂 Thank you.
As confusing as reading the Bible can be, with the many interpretations, listening to the soul of Dr Michael Heiser is very rewarding. Clarity on scripture is so heart warming.
Just because they got the court ordered eviction doesn't mean they wont put up a fight. Problem is when squatters are not immediately punished it almost seems like we need a new court order... "When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong." - Eccl 8:11
The in-grafting of Israel is happening now! Yeshua hamashiach!! There were only a few places the gospel hadn't been preached last decade, I remember having a conversation about it back in 2013, it got there. More Jews have come to believe in Yeshua / Jesus as their King / Messiah in The last 5 years than in the last 2000. YHWH be praised. Their...... the rulers and principalities of spiritual darkness, destruction is nigh, Yeshua/Jesus will return soon. Come Lord Jesus. Yeshua King! Shalom brothers and sisters
They fear their own destruction! They want to postpone their destruction! That is a tool I will keep for life in my ministry of making Jesus known. They do fear........ Thanks for that tool!
A good explanation for why the gods are so committed to empowering the lukewarm church: a church that gives virtually no concern for evangelism. “I am rich and have need of nothing!”
Leave it up to Dr. Heiser to do what Dr. Heiser does/did. Expose us to truth and with simplicity explained. I know you are in the heavens wearing your crown and praising 🙏❤️ great message on spiritual warfare. The evil ones are fearful!
It's a very different perspective based on material we've had under our nose the whole time which is why you want to stay keeping your iron sharp with other irons, rightly dividing the word of Truth... The way Heiser puts it, brings a new meaning to the idiomatic expression 'end times countdown" - - and it weaves in seamlessly with the exhortation and command of the Great commission. If you put that in context to act of spiritual warfare, but apply it metaphorically - this is new believers being drafted, so to speak, any opposing army would be on high alert if they're mortal enemy was arming themselves comedy would have to constantly be counting the cost of defeat. Because the more people that are bought into the ranks, for the most selfish reasons, that speeds up the time clock to their destruction that's why they fight with fury, awesome teaching here Michael Heiser has here.
🗣📢 Thanks Dr. Heiser! The Gods are judged by the first resurrection... Being born of the Spirit of Jesus Christ and sealed by God the Father Almighty Spirit..
This is full of wisdom and has given me such understanding. But also gave me an understanding how the body of Christ needs to be whole and delivered of anything hindering them from their call to reach others.
Paul’s teachings are so easy to understand. Love Paul’s teachings Ephesians 6: talking about a born again blood bought child of God to use Gods Words to fight off the powers of destructions by putting on the full armor. Are Faith which is on the Cross the only object of our Faith, which is the only Faith God will recognize and the only faith Satan will recognize. Then you shall be able to quench all fiery darts of the wicked. The temptations with Satan assails to the saints. The Word of God is the greatest story is Jesus Christ and the Cross!
Great message of truth. One of the ways the devil keeps "kicking the can down the road", i.e., "buying more time" is thru those who preach "the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ", meaning Jesus could return at any moment. Admittedly, this is true in a sense, BUT only after the fulfillment of Jesus words in Matthew 24:14, "And the gospel of the Kingdom must be preached as a testimony / witness to all nations (literally ethnic groups), THEN shall the end come." This is the main criteria for the 2nd coming of Christ. Unfortunately, this is never going to be fulfilled as long as the church at large continues to be a salt-free, low-light, powerless, and demonized entity. It's time for a new church and I'm believing God for it. Stay tuned.
Excellent stuff! Yes, those confrontations can be very real, but it gets exaggerated in certain groups. Mike, please keep us posted on how it's going please. Hope you're ok. So thankful it hasn't spread.
Dr Heiser was brilliant and he is missed , a great man who used his gift for the kingdom, thx Lord for all your great teachers hear at the end of all things
Spiritual warfare has 2 battlefields, the minds of the believers, for which the weapons for it is what God has made us by grace through faith because of Christ's sacrifice, and the word which God has given us; and the soul of the unbelievers, for which the weapons are first prayer and second the preaching of the gospel with the demonstration of God's power.
*Paul never mentions the concept of Spiritual warfare without mentioning the MIND. It focuses on TACTICS not those who are behind those tactics. You cant cast demons off of the face of the earth. You cant bring down PRINCIPALITIES because though CORRUPTED they were ordained by GOD. So, we are not WARRING with them. Thats not who the struggle is with*
@@philnewman9950 "That doesn’t seem to make sense for Him to do something if it didn’t matter." *ok, i think i get what youre saying here. It went over my head when I first read through your comment. It DOES matter. Increasing the Kingdom of God in the earth does not mean DECREASING the Kingdom of darkness. It means DECREASING the INFLUENCE of that kingdom. They will NOT be removed until Jesus returns.*
@@philnewman9950 If you look at the Parable of the Sower. Jesus talks about the enemy STEALING the seed of the Word of God BEFORE it can be UNDERSTOOD and yield fruit. We see this alluded to more than once. So, why is it that Satan cannot ROB you of BELIEFS? And what is SATAN's only recourse once a person has BELIEFS formed within themselves?
It reminds me of "seeing the future through exorcism" like Jesus did against Legion. That whole event became less of an individual's deliverance and more of a long term prophecy of the fall of the Roman Empire.
@@robertdavidson3999 no I believe it literally happened but due to the nature of what demon "daimonion" really are "givers of fortunes" as translated from the Greek - their casting out by Jesus also changed the future.
*No, you don't need to fight any battles on your knees. You simply need to do what the Word of God instructs you to do regarding your thought life. There are somethings you just have to DO. And the more you try and make it a fight that doesnt exist the more you set yourself up for hope deferred. In the same way you wouldnt keep trying to put the wrong key in the wrong lock you dont keep applying false responses to spiritual problems. You use the right key for the precise lock for the exact door you are trying to open at the moment.*
@@thetruthchannel349 the devil's ok with you if you're not in a battle with the enemy. Just keep doing his work for him in telling people there's no fight in being a Christian. If he's not attacking you then it's because you're no threat to his kingdom and plans. When the veil is lifted and you can see with spiritual eyes that is when you know the power of the Holy Spirit and the Word of God

Great theology here. When the disciples came back from being sent out, they were rejoicing that they were able to cast out devils-something never recorded in the history of mankind before.
But Jesus said, "Rejoice not that the devil's are subject to you, but rather that your names are written in the lamb's book of life."
This teaching is in perfect accord with Christ's words, and there is no higher praise it can be given. Beautiful job Mike.
The focus is that their name are written in the Lamb’s Book of life, while the devils are lost for all eternity, there is no redemption for them
*Ya but none of that has anything to do with spiritual warfare. That deals with the Authority of the Kingdom of God being invested in the Name of Jesus. You do not have to WAR against things that are already SUBDUED and therefore made SUBJECT.*
@@thetruthchannel349 Hmm 🧐 interesting. Can you expand on that some by comparing authority of the kingdom with spiritual warfare? What's the difference in your view?
@@leedatsit1799 *The example of the authority of the Kingdom is see by observing the works of Jesus. The examples are exhaustive. Jesus did not war with Legion. They immediately recognized Who He was, the Authority He carried and they only sought to negotiate where they might re-located when Jesus commanded them to depart. These things were subjugated by Jesus. ALL things are subdued BY Him. There is no WARFARE. You have to understand the difference between Power and Authority. When a traffic cop goes out in the middle of a busy intersection and holds his hand up for traffic to stop is he exerting Power or Authority? The cars dont stop because he is exerting POWER. The drivers put on their brakes and come to a stop because they RECOGNIZE the AUTHORITY.*
@@leedatsit1799 *You will NEVER see the concept of 'SPIRITUAL WARFARE' being addressed by ANY Apostle as warring with demons, angels or Principalities. If you read II Cor. 10 very carefully Paul is specific as to what a 'STRONGHOLD' is and HOW a 'STRONGHOLD' is brought down. Strongholds are THOUGHTS that exalt themselves above the Knowledge of God or in other words the MIND of GOD. One reason the Church is so entirely screwed up is because they are beating at the air with 'In the Name of Jesus's' instead of doing what JESUS said 'Taking into CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT and BRINGING THEM INTO SUBJECTION to the KNOWLEDGE of GOD.' In Ephesians 4 Paul tells us how we do that - BY CREATING a SHIELD of BELIEFS. We should have SPECIFIC BELIEFS for EVERY SINGLE CONTRADICTORY THOUGHT that could POSSIBLY COME. This is 'SPIRITUAL WARFARE'*
Thank you Dr. Heiser. You are still teaching me from the other side. God Bless.
Thank you, Dr. Heiser! God bless you 🙏🏽
Praying for you and Trey.
Finally, I found a teacher I can listen to who looks deeper into original languages of Scripture AND thinks about them to consider what the Spirit was speaking to us. (The way I have been led to AND gain the most lasting revelation and spiritual food.)
Thank you! God bless your health and give you time ro continue teaching us.
Excellent explanation! Easily understandable and humorous thank you.
Thank you for not putting a cessationist spin on it by including the reality and experience of us missionaries. It's important we highlight the foundational meaning of scripture without dismissing other realities. Blessings of health and healing to you.
God bless you. I admire missionaries.
@@The_Lion_And_The_Lamb Thank you. Blessings to you also.
It's now clear that the pentecostals and charismatics are doing the wrong things.

Thank you for all your hard work 🙏 Praying for you 💕
I don't know but I'm very thankful he is used mightly to carry out God's work. Praise be to the Lord.!!
Dr Heiser, your video on the gospel changed my life. Thank you.
Well put. Thank you, Dr. Heiser, and bless you.
I am appreciate your teaching! His will bless your ministry .. stay humble and thankful
Thanks Mike. A very timely message. More please 😁
Such a good teacher. Thank you.
Well said and undeniable truth!
Another excellent video, thank you brother. I want you to know how much I appreciate your time and the effort you put into your ministry. Thank you for your research, for the time you've spent away from your family. Thank you for the long nights studying, reading, traveling, etc. I can't imagine how much time that involves to get where you are now. I have much, much less time in schooling but I know how hard it was for me working full time with a family to achieve the little bit of education I did. My hats off to you sir, and my sincere gratitude for the help your work has been personally to me. To all the countless other people I listen to, and read from that give homage to your work it testifies of God's presence in your life. God bless you brother!
Same! Love this man! He’s evidence of an answered prayer in my heart to want to truly understand scripture.
You are much loved among God’s people brother. I pray for God’s gifts of healing and faith to come to you this day. Thank you for so freely giving and enriching our lives with the knowledge God has given you of His Word. The hours you have spent with Him and studying His Word have not been in vain. You make us thirsty for more of Him. The blessings of the Lord overtake you in every way!!! Peace to you~🙏🕊💜🕊
It makes to much sense... I can't even handle it all. Our churches are full of pastors who don't teach anything. You can learn more here in 10min than you can on a Sunday morning.
Awesome as always, thank you for your time and for your love of the Lord!
I recently returned from New Orleans and I believe a close friend and I are dealing with spiritual warfare. Something has attached to him and he is going crazy. I love him dearly. I believe he is my spiritual soulmate. However I have evolved from great trauma and I am dealing with the negativity it is causing in my life. Please pray for me and him. I will overcome this with Gods strength but I am afraid for him. I can no longer be with him and I have blocked him on my phone because this energy is dark and strong. Please pray for us. Thank you Michael you have given me what I prayed for in getting to know my creator better.
🙏🏼❤️
God bless you and your family! Thank you so much, you are such a wise person, I learned very much from you, about our GOD and our MESSIAH , and the HOLY SPIRIT !
Just Awsome, God Bless Dr Michael S Heisser and His Family
Thank you Michael, your work is amazing....
9:27 ROFL I never imagined I would here the words, "I know spiritual warfare sounds sexy" from a professor during a theological lecture. He's got a point tho. 🤣
Sound teaching indeed. I'm in awe! WOW! What a bright light! I really do miss Mike a lot.
Amen! I uploaded five of my testimonies this month by the grace of God. Amen!!!
Thank you for your teaching sir! You have helped my walk with the Lord so much! I love you in Christ! 💯🙏
Hope you are well Micheal
Heavenly Father thank You for all You have done and are doing through and with Michael
We trust You to continue to fulfill Your plan in his life to Your glory
In Jesus name Amen
Excellent video as usual...I hope you ard your family are doing well.
The thumbnail was so funny so I watched your video 😆 God bless
Thank you, Dr Heiser, for your way of speaking truth plainly.
There is nothing more powerful than simple words inspired by simple trust. And by 'simple' I definitely don't mean vacuous, I mean uncomplicated.
You convict and inspire me and I love you for it 🙂 Thank you.
Agreed, 100%
The social media can be a great tool or a massive procrastination... Distracting the world from priorities.
Excellent video, thank you!
As confusing as reading the Bible can be, with the many interpretations, listening to the soul of Dr Michael Heiser is very rewarding. Clarity on scripture is so heart warming.
Just because they got the court ordered eviction doesn't mean they wont put up a fight. Problem is when squatters are not immediately punished it almost seems like we need a new court order... "When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong." - Eccl 8:11
This is GREAT!!! Thank you so much for this RUclips channel.
The in-grafting of Israel is happening now! Yeshua hamashiach!!
There were only a few places the gospel hadn't been preached last decade, I remember having a conversation about it back in 2013, it got there.
More Jews have come to believe in Yeshua / Jesus as their King / Messiah in The last 5 years than in the last 2000.
YHWH be praised.
Their...... the rulers and principalities of spiritual darkness, destruction is nigh, Yeshua/Jesus will return soon.
Come Lord Jesus. Yeshua King!
Shalom brothers and sisters
These just opened my eyes. We do not shout at demons that's not warfare.
They fear their own destruction! They want to postpone their destruction! That is a tool I will keep for life in my ministry of making Jesus known. They do fear........ Thanks for that tool!
A good explanation for why the gods are so committed to empowering the lukewarm church: a church that gives virtually no concern for evangelism.
“I am rich and have need of nothing!”
*I dont see a church capable of evangelism.*
Leave it up to Dr. Heiser to do what Dr. Heiser does/did. Expose us to truth and with simplicity explained. I know you are in the heavens wearing your crown and praising 🙏❤️ great message on spiritual warfare. The evil ones are fearful!
I was exactly at the right place, at the right time, to hear this very important message. Evangelization is the key to the destruction of Strongholds!
I truly appreciate you teaching from God’s Word and His Word, alone.
Thank you.
God bless you sir
It's a very different perspective based on material we've had under our nose the whole time which is why you want to stay keeping your iron sharp with other irons, rightly dividing the word of Truth...
The way Heiser puts it, brings a new meaning to the idiomatic expression 'end times countdown" - - and it weaves in seamlessly with the exhortation and command of the Great commission.
If you put that in context to act of spiritual warfare, but apply it metaphorically - this is new believers being drafted, so to speak, any opposing army would be on high alert if they're mortal enemy was arming themselves comedy would have to constantly be counting the cost of defeat.
Because the more people that are bought into the ranks, for the most selfish reasons, that speeds up the time clock to their destruction that's why they fight with fury, awesome teaching here Michael Heiser has here.
A mighty Amen and Hallelujah
Thank You 🙏 Jesus 😇
For Love 💕 and Peace
🗣📢 Thanks Dr. Heiser! The Gods are judged by the first resurrection... Being born of the Spirit of Jesus Christ and sealed by God the Father Almighty Spirit..
This is full of wisdom and has given me such understanding. But also gave me an understanding how the body of Christ needs to be whole and delivered of anything hindering them from their call to reach others.
Good point on the romanticization of spiritual warfare
Wow!
Well stated!
Spot on, for sure!
Awesome teaching!!
👍🙏👌
Paul’s teachings are so easy to understand. Love Paul’s teachings Ephesians 6: talking about a born again blood bought child of God to use Gods Words to fight off the powers of destructions by putting on the full armor. Are Faith which is on the Cross the only object of our Faith, which is the only Faith God will recognize and the only faith Satan will recognize. Then you shall be able to quench all fiery darts of the wicked. The temptations with Satan assails to the saints. The Word of God is the greatest story is Jesus Christ and the Cross!
Rhema is what flowed from this man of God often!
Great message of truth. One of the ways the devil keeps "kicking the can down the road", i.e., "buying more time" is thru those who preach "the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ", meaning Jesus could return at any moment. Admittedly, this is true in a sense, BUT only after the fulfillment of Jesus words in Matthew 24:14, "And the gospel of the Kingdom must be preached as a testimony / witness to all nations (literally ethnic groups), THEN shall the end come." This is the main criteria for the 2nd coming of Christ. Unfortunately, this is never going to be fulfilled as long as the church at large continues to be a salt-free, low-light, powerless, and demonized entity. It's time for a new church and I'm believing God for it. Stay tuned.
At the same time we live our lives day to day and we will be attacked, harassed, gangstalked etc. We need tools to overcome all that stuff.
AND IT IS ACCOMPLISHED
PRAISE YHWH
Let’s go, brothers and sisters! Let’s continue The Great Commission so we can get out of here and be with the Lord!!
Excellent stuff! Yes, those confrontations can be very real, but it gets exaggerated in certain groups. Mike, please keep us posted on how it's going please. Hope you're ok. So thankful it hasn't spread.
Thank you for this great message from the Lord.
Wow. Please keep sharing
Mostly right. Good job Mike.
This is incredibly valuable, thank you
Dr Heiser was brilliant and he is missed , a great man who used his gift for the kingdom, thx Lord for all your great teachers hear at the end of all things
Spiritual warfare has 2 battlefields, the minds of the believers, for which the weapons for it is what God has made us by grace through faith because of Christ's sacrifice, and the word which God has given us; and the soul of the unbelievers, for which the weapons are first prayer and second the preaching of the gospel with the demonstration of God's power.
*Paul never mentions the concept of Spiritual warfare without mentioning the MIND. It focuses on TACTICS not those who are behind those tactics. You cant cast demons off of the face of the earth. You cant bring down PRINCIPALITIES because though CORRUPTED they were ordained by GOD. So, we are not WARRING with them. Thats not who the struggle is with*
@@thetruthchannel349 why do you think Jesus was casting demons out then? That doesn’t seem to make sense for Him to do something if it didn’t matter.
@@philnewman9950 *Because Jesus was demonstrating that He came to undo the works of the devil. This is NOT spiritual warfare.*
@@philnewman9950 "That doesn’t seem to make sense for Him to do something if it didn’t matter." *ok, i think i get what youre saying here. It went over my head when I first read through your comment. It DOES matter. Increasing the Kingdom of God in the earth does not mean DECREASING the Kingdom of darkness. It means DECREASING the INFLUENCE of that kingdom. They will NOT be removed until Jesus returns.*
@@philnewman9950 If you look at the Parable of the Sower. Jesus talks about the enemy STEALING the seed of the Word of God BEFORE it can be UNDERSTOOD and yield fruit. We see this alluded to more than once. So, why is it that Satan cannot ROB you of BELIEFS? And what is SATAN's only recourse once a person has BELIEFS formed within themselves?
Walk in The Victory that was won at the Cross.
It reminds me of "seeing the future through exorcism" like Jesus did against Legion. That whole event became less of an individual's deliverance and more of a long term prophecy of the fall of the Roman Empire.
You believe that the casting out was symbolic and prophecy?
@@robertdavidson3999 no I believe it literally happened but due to the nature of what demon "daimonion" really are "givers of fortunes" as translated from the Greek - their casting out by Jesus also changed the future.
We are in spiritual warfare all the time, & we need to fight our battles on our knees.
*No, you don't need to fight any battles on your knees. You simply need to do what the Word of God instructs you to do regarding your thought life. There are somethings you just have to DO. And the more you try and make it a fight that doesnt exist the more you set yourself up for hope deferred. In the same way you wouldnt keep trying to put the wrong key in the wrong lock you dont keep applying false responses to spiritual problems. You use the right key for the precise lock for the exact door you are trying to open at the moment.*

@@thetruthchannel349 the devil's ok with you if you're not in a battle with the enemy. Just keep doing his work for him in telling people there's no fight in being a Christian. If he's not attacking you then it's because you're no threat to his kingdom and plans. When the veil is lifted and you can see with spiritual eyes that is when you know the power of the Holy Spirit and the Word of God
