THE NUMBERS 9-1-1 have a specific meaning for Americans—the numbers one dials to call for help in an emergency. They’re also significant as the chapter and verse in the Book of Revelation that identifies the fallen angel called the Destroyer. Joining us this week are pastor, author, and acclaimed biblical prophecy expert Paul Begley, host of a popular YouTube show with over 250 million views, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist and five-time #1 bestselling author Troy Anderson, authors of the new book Revelation 911: How the Book of Revelation Intersects with Today’s Headlines. We discuss the relevance of a 2,000-year old prophecy in a world struggling with war, famine, disease, and mass migration—and even how recent renewed interest in the UFO/UAP phenomenon points to the soon return of the Messiah.

SOME OF THE MOST epic stories from the ancient world deal with the wars of the gods. It’s not a coincidence that one of the most commonly used titles for God in the Bible is “Lord of hosts,” which literally means “Yahweh of armies.” Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic, join us to discuss warrior gods of the ancient world like Ares/Mars, Inanna/Ishtar, Baal/Zeus/Jupiter, and the violent old gods the Titans, and how their motives differ from those of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We also talk about how we Christians, believing in a loving God who’s willing to forgive those who repent and accept Him as Lord, can reconcile the image of Jesus as the suffering servant with the depiction of Yahweh the warrior.

KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR saw a vision that disturbed him so much that he ordered his sorcerers, enchanters, and magicians to tell him what he’d dreamed and its interpretation—on pain of death. Obviously, the Chaldeans of Nebuchadnezzar’s court couldn’t comply with the king’s demand. They were on the verge of being killed when one remembered the Judean named Daniel. Through a revelation of God, Daniel was able to reveal the dream and its interpretation, but that’s led to 2,500 years of debate over just what the interpretation actually means. Ali Siadatan (ThinkAgainProductions.com) joins us to discuss the ages of humanity—gold, silver, bronze, and iron—and the mixing of iron and clay as described in the dream. We also touch on the succession of empires and the concept of the fourth exile and the Messianic age.  We also explore the idea of birth pangs and the signs of the end times, including the days of Noah and the phenomenon of hybrids and the existence of demigod kings in history. We explore evidence of Gilgamesh's tomb and the possibility of hybridization between fallen angels and humans.Ali also shares his interpretation of the parable of wheat and tares, the birth of civilizations, and the supernatural nature of the Bible—including Ezekiel’s startling prophecy of an evil dead army in the final battle at Armageddon.Here’s the link to the P.I.D.

FROM A BROKEN HOME in Guatemala to life as a gangster in Los Angeles, Mondo De La Vega is one of the last people you’d expect to find preaching the gospel. Mondo, Executive Producer of The Jim Bakker Show and host of The Mondo Show, joins us to discuss his new book My Crazy Life (https://amzn.to/3wDJbnw), and how his sister Laura, who, through the power of the Holy Spirit, resisted the lure of the false family structure offered by the gangs of L.A., was able to turn Mondo’s life around with three questions, and how meeting Jim Bakker not only gave Mondo a direction but brought Jim back to active ministry doing what he does best—finding ways to deliver the gospel through broadcast television.Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse!

SOMETHING STRANGE has been happening on this planet for literally thousands of years, and it connects an intrusion into our world by fallen angels to modern paranormal phenomena like those reportedly observed at Skinwalker Ranch. Chad Riley of Truthseekers Research, writer/director and host of the documentary film Skinwalkers and Stranger Things of the Unseen Realm, joins us to explain how his research uncovered links between an ancient sin by rebellious elohim and unexplained events in the present day like remote viewing, cryptozoology, UFOs, and—of course—the Kennedy assassination.

TECHNOLOGY TO help you get possessed. It’s out there—apps to guide you in journeys to the spirit realm. And what about the use of mind-altering drugs to open gateways to the unseen realm? Joining us to discuss the intersection of cutting-edge science and technology in the pursuit of contacting the spirit realm are Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com) and Dr. Judd Burton (www.burtonbeyond.net). (Sadly, our friend Brian Godawa (www.godawa.com) was unable to join us this month.) Throughout history, many techniques labeled sorcery or witchcraft were seen by its practitioners as efforts to develop scientific methods for reaching into the spirit world. We also talk about the increasingly fuzzy line between technology and magic. If entities in the spirit realm are essentially beings of light, can the devices we use to connect to the web allow entities to enter our reality? Can CERN really open a hole into another dimension—and if so, will something come through? (Maybe, and no.) We conclude that intentionality is the key ingredient. Not to be flippant, but if you really want to contact a demon, you can probably do it while reading names from a telephone book.

ONE OF the most enigmatic characters in the Bible is a man who literally sold his birthright for a bowl of beans. We refer, of course, to Jacob’s brother Esau, about whom the Bible doesn’t say much else except that he was the progenitor of Edom, southwest of the Dead Sea, a nation that would be a thorn in the side of Israel and Judah for about a thousand years. Justin Brown, host of Prometheus Lens and co-host of The Dig Bible Podcast, joins us to discuss his forthcoming book, The Epic of Esau. Is there more to learn about the brother Jacob tricked out of his inheritance? For example, a Jewish legend about Esau names him as the one who killed the Sumerian king Nimrod, and by so doing, inheriting a magical garment—the one created by God for Adam when he and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden. There is no way to confirm the ancient stories, so at the end of the day we’re left with some valuable lessons from the life of Esau like the importance of humility, repentance, and forgiveness in the face of missed opportunities and bad decisions.

HOW DO YOU replace one of a kind? There was only one Tom Horn. He leaves a legacy, an unparalleled body of work that has opened the eyes of Christians around the world to the supernatural war in which we all play a part. Joe Ardis Horn has taken over as CEO of SkyWatch TV, a role he never imagined for himself when Tom first began to outline his vision for a new kind of Christian television program.

The Middle East is in turmoil, but trying to understand the conflict in terms of simple geopolitics doesn’t provide good answers. Iran is using proxies in Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen to attack Israel and pressure the West. But Iran is a Shia nation while its most violent proxy, Hamas, is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, a Sunni group that wants to restore the caliphate—which was based in Turkey. Dr. Timothy Furnish, a scholar of Islamic eschatology, joins us to help untangle the web that binds together Shias and Sunnis, and Persians and Arabs, in their opposition to Israel and the West. We highly recommend Tim’s books Holiest Wars, Ten Years’ Captivation with the Mahdi’s Camps, Sects, Lies and the Caliphate, and The COIN of the Islamic Realm.

DO PLACES EXIST where the veil between this world and the next is thinner—namely, portals? Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic, and Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and join us to discuss the concept of portals. From Mount Hermon to the Tower of Babel to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, a belief in portals between the supernatural and human realms is ancient and widespread. Do portals actually exist? Can our entertainment choices open us up to spiritual influences? This would all be an intellectual exercise if Jesus hadn’t specifically chosen to declare his divinity at Caesarea Philippi, a location widely believed to be a portal in the ancient world.

A SIGNIFICANT PORTION of liberal America apparently feels the only way to “save our democracy” is by disenfranchising tens of millions of voters. There are movements to keep Donald Trump off the ballot in some 30 states, and congressional Democrats want to disqualify more than 125 Republican colleagues from running for reelection by claiming that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution bars anyone from holding office if they engaged in insurrection—which they define as doing what prominent Democrats like Hillary Clinton did after the 2016 election.

THE WAR between Israel and Hamas began three months ago today. Is this the start of the conflict prophesied in Psalm 83, the Gog-Magog war of Ezekiel 38–39, or something else? ALI SIADATAN (ThinkAgainProductions.com), producer and director of the documentary UFOs Angels & Gods, joins us to share his unique perspective on the geopolitical (and theopolitical) situation in the Middle East. What does Iran hope to gain through its proxy militias in Yemen, Lebanon, and Gaza? Why now? And how will a rising movement inside Iran to throw off what some consider a religion led by an invading “Arab god”—Islam—affect the outcome of this war?

ARE WE GUILTY of “majoring in the minors” by talking about the weird parts of the Bible?Studying topics like giants, gods, and dragons in the Bible is important. But does focusing on these subjects detracts from the message of love, grace, and salvation in Jesus Christ? Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic, Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, join us to discuss the significance of geographic locations and religious context in biblical events. Jesus himself waged war with demons, principalities and powers who rebelled against their Creator. We need a comprehensive theology that includes historical, cultural, and biblical knowledge. Without it, we cannot recognize or understand the devices of the enemy. As our good friend the late Dr. Michael Heiser used to say, “If it’s in the Bible and it’s weird, it’s probably important.” Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse!

IT’S DEFINITELY one of the strangest stories of 2023: Villagers in a remote region of the Amazon rainforest in Peru have been defending themselves against attackers called pelecaras, which translates into English as “face-peelers.”Timothy Alberino (TimothyAlberino.com), who lived in that region for a time as a younger man, returned recently to investigate the accounts of seven-foot-tall levitating “aliens,” and he tells us what he found.

ANCIENT SUMERIANS built a tower of mud brick as a portal to the gods. Today, Babel is more high-tech. Author Nick Goss joins us to discuss his new book Unplugging Babel: A Manifesto Against AI, Smartphones, and Social Media. Nick explains why he says smartphone technology and social media have enslaved Christians, tethering us to participation in the coming 'Beast Bystem' of the Antichrist.

ONE OF THE MOST notorious characters in the Bible, and all of history, is a man about which we know almost nothing. Nimrod is blamed for the Tower of Babel and the occult wickedness of Babylon. However, a close reading of the Bible and the history of the ancient Near East doesn’t specifically connect him with either. Some identify Nimrod as the Sumerian king Enmerkar, some as Sargon the Great of Akkad, others as the mythical hero of Uruk, Gilgamesh. How much do we really know about Nimrod? Is there any connection to Semiramis, Tammuz, and Christmas? Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the new novel Cruel Logic join us for our monthly round table to discuss the man, the myth, the legend—Nimrod.Here’s the link to Derek’s paper “The Double-Headed Eagle: Scottish Rite Freemasonry’s Veneration of Nimrod.”This is the BBC News article that got everyone so excited 20 years ago: “Gilgamesh Tomb Believed Found.” Except that’s not what Dr. Jörg Fassbinder actually said.Fassbinder’s team did a magenetometric survey of the site of ancient Uruk, the city ruled by Gilgamesh probably 5,000 years ago (give or take). They mapped magnetic anomalies in the soil to find the city walls and outlines of buildings in the city. During the survey, they found the outline of a structure in what was formerly the course of the Euphrates River that was similar to the description of the tomb described in the Epic of Gilgamesh.Fassbinder and his team excavated nothing. And yet that BBC story has been twisted and retold so often that it’s now taken as an article of faith that videos with titles like “Gilgamesh Nephilim King FOUND INTACT IN TOMB” are still being produced—and getting about 100 times more views than our program because we stick to actual evidence.Here’s a 2002 story from Radio Free Europe about Dr. Fassbinder’s work with a title that’s more accurate and less clickbait: “Iraq: Archaeological Expedition Mapping Ancient City Of Uruk.”Here are the relevant papers by Jörg Fassbinder:Beneath the Euphrates Sediments: Magnetic Traces of the Mesopotamian Megacity Uruk (2020)Uruk (Iraq) Magnetometry in the First Megacity of Mesopotamia (2018)Magnetometry at Uruk (Iraq): City of King Gilgamesh (2003)You can see his work is all with the magnetometer, not the shovel or spade. Contrary to what you may have read elsewhere, Gilgamesh was not exhumed.Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse! Our Build Barn Better project is nearly complete!

WHAT WE CALL “prepping” our grandparents called “life.” We’ve lost those skills—and the knowledge that your neighbors had your back when things got tough. Wyatt Fernow, one of the organizers of the annual Pitchfork and Hoe Gathering in Valley City, North Dakota (facebook.com/pitchforknhoe), sat down with me at this year’s event to explain why his father, Rod, came up with the idea for this get-together, the types of exhibits and workshops offered, and the lessons he hopes people take away from this gathering. I was honored to be a featured speaker Friday and Saturday night at the Pitchfork and Hoe Gathering.

THE THREE big questions of life that have haunted humanity since the beginning of history are still with us today: Where do we come from, why are we here, and what happens when we die? Shaun Tabatt and Randy Kay have authored three books on near-death experiences (NDEs), accounts of experiences from people who were clinically dead and brought back to life. Shaun joins us to discuss their new book Near Death Experiences: 101 Short Stories That Will Help You Understand Heaven, Hell, and the Afterlife. He tells us why he and Randy research a phenomenon that many Christians avoid, how they selected the accounts in the book, and their fascinating discovery that the intercessory prayers of mothers and grandmothers seem to be especially effective.Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse!

VFTB 10/29/23: Creepy Dolls

VFTB 10/29/23: Creepy Dolls

2023-10-3001:03:11

A CREEPY DOLL that takes on a life of its own is a well-worn trope in Hollywood horror films. Is there any truth behind this modern urban myth? Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant and the forthcoming Van Helsing Way, joins us for our annual Halloween show to discuss the spiritual reality behind Hollywood dolls like Chucky (Child’s Play), Annabelle (The Conjuring), the evil clown in Poltergeist, and M3gan. As Judd notes, dolls are not all that different from the “images” created by the pagan neighbors of ancient Israel (and by pagans today) to give locality to their gods. If the apostle Paul was correct, and we defer to him in matters supernatural, then these idols—dolls, if you prefer—were, and can be, homes to demons.

WHO BETTER to investigate sensational reports of levitating inhuman visitors in the remote Amazon rainforest than Timothy Alberino? Seriously. Not only is Tim, author of the bestselling book Birthright, a respected ufologist, he lived for ten years in exactly the part of the Amazon where these reports emerged in August and speaks the unique dialect of Spanish used by villagers in that region. What is going on? According to eyewitnesses, seven-foot tall, yellow-eyed creatures of possibly insectoid appearance who can float through the air have been terrorizing villagers along the Amazon and its tributaries. They appear to be impervious to bullets, and there are some who believe these are what are locally called “face peelers.” And it’s not because these creatures are really into skin care. The official explanation, that these are illegal gold miners using jet packs to travel deep into the jungle, makes no sense, so Tim has assembled an expedition to the Ikitu tribe in the remote Peruvian village of San Antonio. He leaves Monday, October 23, 2023, and we wait to see what he finds.We don't know what's really happening, but we know the people who live in that region of the Amazon are terrified of something.Also: Our memories of our friend and mentor, Dr. Tom Horn.Follow Tim Alberino:Website: www.timothyalberino.comX: @timothyalberinoInstagram: @timothyalberinoSubscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse!
