I know the questions. I was a staunch atheist before I ever took the bible seriously. These will throw any Christian off his game:Where did the dinosaurs come from?Why aren’t pyramids ever mentioned in the bible?Our science dates the earth millions of years before Genesis… how does the Bible explain that?There are monolithic structures that not only pre-date the bible, they pre-date humanity if you consider the biblical timeline of 6000 years plus or minus. How was that possible?That’s...

Typically when you embark on a journey to study end times in the bible you’re are bounced between Revelation, Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah with a little Matthew 24 and 24. Here, though, in season 5, As we walk through the Bible landing where God interacted with His creation, we are way back at the beginning and whatever the temple of the day was, we’re still seeing the connections leap off the page straight through the cross into Revelation. Honestly, we were hoping this would happen. We wanted to...

Today we're continuing our journey through one of the most important themes in all of Scripture: the temple.When most Christians hear the word temple, they think of a building in Jerusalem. Some think of Solomon's Temple. Others think of a future temple still waiting to be built. But what if the story begins much earlier than that? What if the temple was never primarily about a building at all?In this series, we're tracing the temple from its very beginning, following the thread from Eden th...

We are early in our journey tracing the trajectory of God’s direct interaction with his creation. What we’re already discovering is a very tender, very soft entry. God does not land abruptly, he lands softly and leads. Unfortunately, men don’t always listen. Still, as we track through this history, you’ll see the patience, the persistence and the love of a Father for his children.Today, we look at the first encounter between God and Moses. With a careful reading, you’ll find this encounter mor...

If I'm being honest with you, the last few episodes have been heavy. We've spent a lot of time in some dark corners — the Nephilim, the corrupt powers behind the nations, the idol systems, the way that ancient spiritual machinery shows up in modern institutions, if you know what you're looking for. And I don't regret any of it. I think it's important. I think you need to see it clearly. But I'll tell you — sitting with that material, researching it, recording it — there were moments where the we...

One of the temptations of reading ancient biblical text is to dismiss it as, well, ancient. Like it doesn’t apply to us. We are much more sophisticated, more cultured, wiser, smarter, more civilized. At least that is probably the thought running through a passive reading… until you pull back the curtain on today.Note for the Ancient War in Modern DressEpisode Link:https://www.rabbitholesandmeditations.com/the-ancient-war-in-modern-dress-looking-behind-the-curtain-of-modern-spiritual-warfare...

What is it about the word “No”? I don’t know about you, but for most people, the minute they are told they can’t have something, they want it. Or at the very least, they are curious. A friend of mine has a two-year-old, and up until now, he’s gotten everything he’s asked for. Now, he’s learning the word “no”. There is a reason we call this age the “terrible twos”!Inevitably, when the boundary is set, a person wants to see what is on the other side of the barrier. And that doesn’t stop at the a...

You might have thought that winning the ground was the grand finale. That should have been it. But the battle we fight is far deeper and far more pervasive. The battle you and I face as Christians is in the spiritual realm. Paul stated it plainly:“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” — Ephesians 6:12Notes for the Air WarEpisode Link:https://www....

I think by this point, many of our listeners might be scratching their heads. I thought this season was about the end times!The inspiration for this season was that we think, and I believe the scriptures will get us there, is that most present-day biblical scholars on the end times are following the same dispensational track that is not supported by scripture.We’re not inventing or, rather, re-inventing doctrine. I don’t believe in the need for a secret return that the text never supports. W...

You can read the Bible as a historical text, but if you do that, you’ll be hard-pressed to explain several passages that God-fearing people are often pressed with. One such question that often goes unanswered is how a loving God can command the utter destruction of entire races. One such example: Deuteronomy 20:16-18 - However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. 17 Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorit...

We begin a new series today in Season Five. We are going to walk with God through the bible. It’s a huge endeavor, but the goal is simple. To understand what God wants for mankind and how He actually accomplishes it. We’re not presenting systems or charts. We’re not inventing theology and secret returns to fit a narrative. We are listening and interpreting with the only thing we need, God’s word. You may recognize this as our Berean strategy. Welcome to season 5.It starts right where God start...
