• E173 How to Bury a Nephilim

  Something old is hiding in the text—older than creeds, louder than tradition, and it doesn’t like the light. Our returning guest slips us a trail of clues through Genesis 6, Psalm 82, and Deuteronomy 32, pointing to quiet edits, missing words, and a council in the shadows. If those changes are real, they don’t just touch giants—they press on the very name “Son of God.” The story widens: rabbis, translators, and empires trying to hush a supernatural thread that keeps resurfacing. And for reasons that feel uncomfortably current, that thread pulls on politics, bloodlines, and the way nations are discipled. We don’t exactly solve the mystery—but we hand you some compelling evidence with a map.Timestamps 00:57 Brandon’s wrestling-style intro  02:10 Why he wrote his new paper 03:17 Pushback against the Nephilim worldview 05:33 How rabbis altered texts in the 2nd century 07:56 Augustine and Chrysostom’s naturalistic shift 10:21 Two Powers in Heaven and early Jewish thought 12:41 Jesus quoting Psalm 82 and its implications 15:00 Masoretic vs Septuagint vs Dead Sea Scrolls 17:21 Deliberate changes in Deuteronomy 32 and Psalm 82 19:43 New Greek translations to counter the Septuagint 22:10 Early church fathers’ awareness of text changes 24:30 Speculation about anti-supernatural agendas 26:56 Islam, henotheism, and Gnostic influence 29:15 Jewish fables, genealogies, and textual variants 31:44 Melchizedek, Shem, and genealogy manipulation 34:04 Psalm 110 and begotten-before-the-dawn language 36:32 Connections to Hebrews and Jesus as Melchizedek 38:51 Why the Nephilim worldview faces modern resistance 41:09 Tradition vs biblical interpretation in Reformed circles 43:27 Augustine’s overwhelming influence 45:32 Quickfire speculative questions for Doug 47:57 Demythologizing scripture and politics 50:23 Dispensationalism, Zionism, and modern Israel 52:32 A biblical chiasm of 1–12–70–nations 54:50 Paul before the Sanhedrin and watcher parallels 57:15 Great Commission as discipling nations 59:40 Two Israels, replacement theology debates

• E171 The Magical Ducklings and the Kingdom of God

  What happens when a chaos magician encounters the living God? In this raw and unforgettable episode, Cole Harrison recounts his wild descent into psychedelic rituals, demonic possession, and occult deception — and the divine rescue that changed everything. From tripping in a basement drum circle to crying out to God in the Oregon wilderness, Cole’s story is a supernatural rollercoaster of redemption. Now, he’s flipping the script, ministering to the same crowd he once ran with — using music, tea, and the presence of Jesus in the middle of psychedelic festivals. It’s gritty, honest, and lit with the fire of the Holy Spirit.https://themagicalducklings.com/Guest Contact Info – Cole HarrisonMinistry Name: The Magical DucklingsEmail: [email protected]: The Magical Ducklings on YouTube (new music and surround sound experiences shared here)Book referenced by Heiser: https://amzn.to/3UbHiaiTimestamps00:06 Demonic encounter and heavenly intervention 00:28 Introducing Cole Harrison 02:44 Childhood spirituality and early artistic family background 05:06 Drawn to the occult and discovery of witchcraft books 07:27 Early black magic practices and spiritual fractures 09:51 Arrest, rituals, and descent into chaos magic 12:13 Drum-based spirit manipulation and psychedelic influence 14:40 Traveling, manipulation magic, and Castaneda-inspired sorcery 17:03 Introduction of sinister teacher and basement rituals 19:32 Possession experiences during chaos drumming 21:53 Demonic manifestations and internal torment 24:16 Connection to Process Church similarities 26:30 The complexity of electronic music and tripping 28:55 Turning point in the woods, divine encounter 31:16 Realization of deception at Grateful Dead concert 33:40 Demon voices, self-harm, and deliverance in the woods 36:01 Spiritual breakthrough and divine rescue 38:15 Journey to Rainbow Gathering and continued torment 40:36 Encounter with the Bread of Life kitchen and Jesus 42:53 Full surrender, first Bible reading, and confirmation 45:12 First deliverance experience in Dallas 47:32 Filled with the Holy Spirit and slain in the spirit 49:52 Ministry at Bonnaroo and psychedelic outreach 52:10 Redeeming psychedelic culture through creative ministry 54:22 What New Agers get right and wrong 56:43 Reflections on theology, childhood, and spiritual fatherhood 59:05 Psychedelics, mind control, and Laurel Canyon 01:01:31 Supernatural love and genuine community in evangelism 01:04:20 Media mind control and spiritual warfare 01:06:44 Advice for those called to reach the fringes 01:09:07 Embracing weirdness and creativity in ministry 01:11:29 Where to find Cole’s music and final encouragement
