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: 340 Decoding the Ancients: Göbekli Tepe, Watchers, and the Oldest Temple on Earth with Dr. Judd Burton & Dr. Aaron Judkins

EP: 340 Decoding the Ancients: Göbekli Tepe, Watchers, and the Oldest Temple on Earth with Dr. Judd Burton & Dr. Aaron Judkins

This week on Blurry Creatures, we welcome two brilliant minds—Dr. Judd Burton and Dr. Aaron Judkins—for a mind-bending conversation about one of the oldest and most mysterious archaeological sites on Earth: Göbekli Tepe. In their new book Decoding Göbekli Tepe: Biblical Anatolia and the Watchers, the authors explore the ancient symbolism, spiritual significance, and possible supernatural connections surrounding this enigmatic site in modern-day Turkey. We delve into the theory that Göbekli Tepe was more than just a temple—it was a place of resurrection rituals, ancestor worship, and possibly even the influence of the biblical Watchers. Could this ancient site be linked to the Nephilim? Was it part of a global network of pre-flood civilizations? And what do vultures, phallic symbols, and Luwian hieroglyphs have to do with it? From biblical echoes to supernatural speculation, this episode explores the thin veil between ancient history and the blurry realm of the divine and the forbidden. . Learn more about your ad choices.
