EP: 369 Mars Hill and The Council of Gods with Dr. Joel Muddamalle

"In him we live and move and have our being." When Paul quoted the Greek poet Epimenides at Mars Hill in Acts 17, the Athenian philosophers weren't confused—they knew exactly what he was referencing. Their council of gods. In this LIVE from Blurry Con preview, Dr. Joel Muddamalle explains that Greek philosophy included a divine hierarchy ruling over nations and territories, strikingly similar to what Scripture describes in Deuteronomy 32:8. When God judged humanity at Babel, He didn't just scatter the nations—He disinherited them, assigning each to divine beings called "sons of God." These weren't decorative angels; they were governing authorities with real power over territories. The Greeks called them gods. The Hebrews understood them as rebellious divine council members. Paul, standing in the intellectual epicenter of the ancient world, used their own theology against them: "That council you worship? They're defeated rebels. The 'Unknown God' you acknowledge but don't know? That's Yahweh—and His Son Jesus Christ has authority over every power you've been serving." Joel walks through how Paul's Mars Hill sermon connects to the entire biblical narrative of spiritual warfare: the serpent's Eden rebellion, Babel's cosmic judgment, Mount Hermon where divine beings (Watchers) descended and corrupted the nations they were supposed to steward, and ultimately Christ's victory reclaiming all territory and authority. This is why Paul could confidently quote Greek poets—he wasn't compromising truth, he was revealing it through a framework the Greeks already understood. Joel explains what the divine council is, why geography matters in spiritual warfare, where demons originate (not fallen angels—Scripture doesn't teach that), how territorial spirits function, and why missions and prayer look different when you understand cosmic geography. The Greeks believed in a council of gods ruling over territories. Paul said: You're right about the structure, but wrong about who's in charge. Christ has defeated them all and reclaimed His rightful dominion. This conversation bridges ancient philosophy, Hebrew theology, and practical spiritual warfare—showing they're not contradictory but complementary when understood correctly. Whether you're trying to make sense of Ephesians 6, understand missions strategy, or grasp what Christ actually accomplished, Joel provides the framework Scripture assumes but Western rationalism has stripped away.

EP: 38 Conspiracy Theories with Doug Van Dorn

In Episode 38, we welcome back author, podcaster, and theologian, Doug Van Dorn, to explore a number of topics relating to conspiracies and forbidden narratives. Doug has written extensively on the ancient giants and the unseen realm, and his newest work specifically targets conspiracy theories. Why is it that more often than not the truth goes missing and or is hiding in plain sight? Why are certain topics pushed out of the public conversation and not allowed to be talked about or believed in? What and why are things labeled as "conspiracy theories" and what does that say about the truth?   guest: douglasvandorn.com contact: blurrycreaturespodcast@gmail.com blurrycreatures.com Socials instagram.com/blurrycreatures facebook.com/blurrycreatures twitter.com/blurrycreatures Music Kyle Monroe: tinytaperoom.com Aaron Green: https://www.instagram.com/aaronkgreen/ Mastering: ironwingstudios.com Outro Song: TimeCop1983: timecop1983.com Learn more about your ad choices.

EP: 35 Were The Giants Pycho? With Richard Sorenson

In Episode 35 we bring on Psychology PhD candidate, historian and biologist Richard Sorenson to delve into the genetics and physiology of the nephilim and ancient giants. Sorenson has a very specific hypothesis that ancient giants suffered from genetic psychosis—a trait possibly passed down in the DNA of the Watchers. Were the Nephilim, the Biblical Men of Renown and the ancient giants all psychologically psychopathic? We discuss this, extraterrestrials, ufo’s and extra biblical literature in an episode that will leave you wondering about the biology, psychology and genetic material associated with the Genesis 6 incursion. guest: https://richardsorensen.com contact: blurrycreaturespodcast@gmail.com www.blurrycreatures.com Socials instagram.com/blurrycreatures facebook.com/blurrycreatures twitter.com/blurrycreatures Music Kyle Monroe: tinytaperoom.com Aaron Green: https://www.instagram.com/aaronkgreen/ Mastering: ironwingstudios.com Outro Song: TimeCop1983: timecop1983.com Learn more about your ad choices.
