Episode 193: Here Be Dragons! Show Notes

Summary:

"Here be Dragons" was a phrase early cartographers (map makers) used on faraway, uncharted corners of the map. It was used to warn people away from dangerous areas where sea monsters were believed to exist. Most view dragons as mythological creatures, but the Bible has a very different view of them, and they are quite real. Let's explore the mystery of dragons!

Notes:

Dragons: תַּנִּין tannîn (tan-neen') - dragon, serpent, sea monster

dragon or dinosaur

sea or river monster

serpent, venomous snake

Scriptures:

All Scripture references are from the King James Version of the Bible.

Psalm 148:7-14, Job 30:28-31, Psalm 91:10-13, Genesis 3:15, Isaiah 26:20-27:1, Psalm 44:18-26, Deuteronomy 32:31-34, Ezekiel 29:3-6, Isaiah 51:9-11, Jeremiah 51:33-35, Isaiah 13:19-22, Revelation 18:1-3, Jeremiah 9:1-11, Isaiah 34:1-15, Isaiah 35:3-10, Isaiah 43:19-21, Psalm 74:10-14, Revelation 12:3-4, Revelation 12:7-9, Micah 1:8-9, Revelation 16:12-14, Revelation 20:1-3

Takeaway:

Dragons are very much real in Scripture and not at all what mythology presents them to be, although there are hints of truth in the legends. Dragons were considered magical creatures and often depicted as winged serpents. In reality, this likely is a distortion of the actual reptilian beings, Seraphim, who, along with Satan, comprise the serpent brotherhood that is at war with humanity and the Lord. Here be dragons, indeed! They will soon be here, cast down and confined to the earth. And woe unto those who will inhabit the earth in that time!

Episode 192: America in Prophecy

Show Notes

Summary:

Many nations are mentioned in the Scriptures, and several are included in the end-times prophecy. Is there any reference in the Bible to America in prophecy? The same question could be asked of Europe, Asia, and other nations, but we will focus on the United States. Let’s look to see if America is mentioned explicitly in the Scriptures, or does some other name refer to it?

Carelessly: בֶּטַח beṭaḥ (beh’takh) - Security, safety, securely

Scriptures:

All Scripture references are from the King James Version of the Bible.

Psalm 9:17, Ezekiel 38:1-7, Ezekiel 39:6-7, Isaiah 47:1-15, Zephaniah 2:15-3:4, Revelation 16:17-21, Revelation 17:3-6, Isaiah 13:9-13, Isaiah 24:18-21, Revelation 6:12-17, Revelation 11:15-18, Revelation 16:12-14, Joel 3:1-9, Psalm 47:1-9

Takeaway:

Creatures may appear “blurry” in photographs, but the Bible is clear that there are I I don’t see America as being on the side of God’s Israel of the Lord Jesus Christ in the future. I see Satan at work deceiving this nation just like all the others. I repeat that there is no political solution to what is coming. Our only hope is in Christ, who is not calling out a nation but calling all men to salvation. There is little time left. Believe and be saved today!

Episode 191: Not So Blurry Creatures Show Notes

Summary:

Photographic evidence of cryptids often looks taken with shaky hands or poor cameras. In this day and age, with iPhones and improved cameras around us all the time, you’d think clear photographic evidence would be everywhere. In a nod to our fellow podcasters Luke and Nate, many of these photos of Bigfoot and even UFOs remain “blurry creatures.” However, the Bible paints an unmistakably clear picture of creatures and entities in the spiritual realm. We can see them through the lens of Scripture, a more reliable source due to its divine inspiration and historical accuracy. Despite the skepticism surrounding these creatures and entities, let’s look at some not-so-blurry creatures!

Notes:

Serpent: נָחָשׁ nāḥāš (naw-khawsh’) - serpent, snake

Nun, Chet, Shin (Seed, Fence, Destroy)

וְהַנָּחָשׁ “and the snake” - Vav, Heh, Nun, Chet, Shin (Nail, Breath, Seed, Fence, Destroy)

The very name of the serpent foreshadows him being destroyed by Christ on the cross. Though he is the accuser of the brethren, he is fenced from harming the saints.

Lionlike men: אֲרִיאֵל 'ărî'ēl (ar-ee-ale’) - meaning uncertain

(CLBL) possibly lion-like

(BDB) possibly two sons of Ariel of Moab

satyr: שָׂעִיר śāʿîr (saw-eer') - he-goat, buck

as sacrificial animal

satyr, may refer to a demon possessed goat like the swine of Gadara (Mt. 8:30-32)

Scriptures:

All Scripture references are from the King James Version of the Bible.

2 Corinthians 5:6-8, 2 Peter 1:16-21, Genesis 3:1, Revelation 12:7-9, Revelation 20:1-3, Genesis 6:4, Genesis 6:7-12, 2 Samuel 23:20-22, Psalm 22:11-18, Job 39:9-12, Isaiah 34:13-14, Leviticus 17:7, Job 40:15-24, Job 41:1-7, Psalm 74:12-14, Revelation 13:1-7,

Takeaway:

Creatures may appear “blurry” in photographs, but the Bible is clear that there are things in the natural and spiritual realm that we either don’t understand or cannot see. Could some creatures be genetically manipulated hybrids that can step in and out of the spiritual realm? Is that why we have never been able to capture them? Perhaps they can step through portals at their will. One day, God will reveal the answers to His saints, but until then, we walk by faith and believe the Scriptures. God will make all things beautiful in His time!
