  • Iron and Myth 24: Tis the Season to Talk About Giants

    18/12/2023 Duration: 01h04min

    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 shar

    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.

  • Unplugging Babel

    04/12/2023 Duration: 01h10min

    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.

  • Iron and Myth 23: Nimrod

    20/11/2023 Duration: 01h17min

    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.

    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. Here are links to my presentations and the Q & A sessions that followed: • Giants in the Bible (about two hours): https://youtu.be/kyoPmP-hBRE?si=eIC1xD-T4d_zenmO• Demons, Dragons, and Devils (2 hours, 30 minutes): https://youtu.be/omwPCz26e_4?si=Sz2iJldiNuJThDji Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/GilbertHouse!

    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 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.

    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 Anton

    NIMROD HAD nothing to do with Babel or Babylon—and they had nothing to do with one another. This is probably not what you’ve heard about the first great (human) rebel in the Bible, but if this week’s guest is correct, it’s historically accurate. Dr. Douglas Petrovich, author of the new book Nimrod the Empire Builder: Architect of Shock and Awe, explains how identifying Nimrod as the world’s first empire builder—a Mesopotamian king whose domain stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean—brings the notorious rebel from the mists of time onto the pages of history. You can help Dr. Petrovich get the book into print and reprint his previous book, the groundbreaking Origins of the Hebrews, at Doug’s crowdfunding campaign: indiegogo.com/projects/nimrod-the-empire-builder-origins-of-the-hebrews#/ Follow Dr. Doug Petrovich: YouTube: youtube.com/@IlluminingThePathX/Twitter: twitter.com/PetrovichDougAcademia: https://brookesbible.academia.edu/DouglasPetrovich Subscribe and share our YouTube channel at w

    HAMAS SURPRISED Israel with an attack early Saturday, October 7. As of this recording, more than 300 Israelis are dead with another 1,600 hurt. It’s the worst military setback in Israel since the Yom Kippur War exactly 50 years ago. Filmmaker, author, and prophecy scholar L. A. Marzulli (www.lamarzulli.net) joins us to discuss the biblical significance of this new conflict, the latest chapter in the long history of war over the land that God claimed as His own more than 3,400 years ago.

    SOFT DISCLOSURE of the existence of “extraterrestrial” life has gone mainstream, with stories about UAPs appearing in the corporate media regularly since December, 2017. Things reached a new level this summer, with a so-called Pentagon whistleblower claiming knowledge of recovered alien craft and veteran journalist Jaime Maussan presenting already-debunked mummified “non-human” remains to Mexico’s Congress—but getting press coverage nonetheless. What’s behind this growing drumbeat? Ali Siadatan (ThinkAgainProductions.com), producer of one of the first Christian documentaries on the UFO/UAP phenomenon UFOs Angels & Gods, joins us for a thought-provoking discussion of the prophetic significance of the idea that humans are not alone in the universe. Is this setting up the Great Deception, where humanity is fooled into believing that fallen angels are “good” aliens, here to fight on our behalf against the “bad” aliens who are coming to conquer Earth?

    ONE OF the most important finds in the history of biblical archaeology is threatened. The Israeli government recently stopped a construction project that would have built a Palestinian village on top of the ruins of Joshua’s altar. At least, the project is stopped for now—there is no guarantee that the work has been halted for good. Aaron Lipkin (www.altarofjoshua.com) CEO of Lipkin Tours (www.lipkintours.com), discovered the construction during a visit to the site with his father, Avi. He tells us how he alerted Israeli government authorities to the construction, why the Palestinian Authority was able to launch this project to erase a critical piece of Jewish (and Christian) history, and what we can do to help.

    WHAT HAPPENS when the dead don’t stay that way? And is that even possible? Our monthly Iron and Myth roundtable tackles the topic of the unquiet dead—revenants, ghouls, zombies, vampires, ghosts, and more. Can the dead really come back? If so, how do we deal with them?

    A NEW AGE teaching very much like sorcery is making its way into Christian churches. Our guest this week is the author of a book that pulls no punches in calling out this doctrine. Jon Clash (www.godtrepreneur.com) discusses his book The Law of Attraction: A Gateway Drug to Spiritual Heroin. Jon explains what the Law of Attraction is, the similar teachings corrupting Christians under a variety of names, and why this idea of “mind over matter” is so dangerous.

    COULD YOU defend your worldview as if your worldview depended on it? What if your life actually DID depend on it? Award-winning screenwriter and bestselling author Brian Godawa (www.godawa.com) joins us to discuss his new novel, the “theological thriller” Cruel Logic: The Philosopher Killer. The plot features a brilliant university professor—a ruthless killer who captures distinguished college professors and debates them on his moral right to kill them. If they lose, they die. And they always lose. The novel is available in paperback, Kindle, and audiobook versions here (available September 12, 2023). You can see Brian’s 2007 short film Cruel Logic here.

    MUSIC HAS power. It can inspire, and it can seduce. And for those with the gift of making music, it can be a test and a trap. Two world-class musicians join us this week who gave up careers as secular musicians to share the gospel of Jesus Christ: Caspar McCloud (casparmccloudmusic.com), pastor of the Upper Room Fellowship in Ball Ground, Georgia (theupperroomfellowship.org), and Renae Truex (renaetruex.com), a fiddle player who’s performed at the Grand Ole Opry and with musicians like the legendary Charlie Daniels. Renae and Caspar explain how they joined forces, why they passed on secular success, and the inspiration for songs like “Fly Like Superman,” “Nurse Kate,” and “Georgia Guidestones.” The new CD by the Caspar McCloud Band is “Higher Frequencies,” and it’s on sale as of this recording—when you buy the new CD “Higher Frequencies,” you get their previous disc “Walking in Authority” free!

    IS IT possible for a story to literally scare the Hell out of you? Every era has had its stories of monsters, demons, and gods. Those tales can teach some supernatural truth—sometimes by accident. That’s not to say that we can find the gospel in every tale of horror; as Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), author of the forthcoming novel Cruel Logic, observes, they are “reflections through a distorted lens of godless man.” Brian joins Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, and Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, to discuss our favorite examples of horror that manage to teach us something about the spiritual conflict around us.

    IT’S TRUE—if you want to do archaeology in Israel, you go into the field with a shovel in one hand and a Bible in the other. Dr. Mike Freikman (https://huji.academia.edu/MikeFreikman) of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem joins us this week to discuss his current excavation at Tell Beit Mirsim. This site, located about 12-1/2 miles southwest of Hebron, was excavated more than 90 years ago by one of the giants of biblical archaeology, William F. Albright. Dr. Freikman, who’s done the most recent excavations on the Copper Age megalithic site on the Golan Heights called Gilgal Refaim (“Wheel of the Giants”)and the nearby serpent-shaped ridge we’ve dubbed the Serpent Mound of Bashan, explains why he’s returning to a site that hasn’t been positively identified with a place named in the Bible—especially when that means following in the footsteps of one of the pioneers of archaeology in Israel.

    A GROWING BODY of evidence links the giants of the pre-Flood world with ancient Canaan and the mysterious island of Sardinia off the west coast of Italy. Author, filmmaker, and explorer Timothy Alberino (www.timothyalberino.com), who is our special guest on our 2024 tour of Israel, joins us to discuss the hundreds of giants’ tombs on Sardinia. They are used to this day in a rite of passage tradition where young teens will spend the night inside a tomb to absorb the energy of the giants believed to be buried underneath. We also discuss the archaeological evidence connecting the Nuragic civilization of Sardinia and Canaan of the Late Bronze Age, specifically the site in Israel near Megiddo called El Ahwat, which features architecture not found in ancient Canaan—but nearly identical to Nuragic construction on Sardinia. Finally, we speculate on why Sardinia has so many giants’ tombs. Derek misspoke—more than 800 have been discovered on the island! For information and to reserve your place on our Israel tour w
