The Confessionals - 750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus

Episode Date: April 22, 2025

In episode 750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus, Tony is joined in-studio by Derek and Jack for a freewheeling conversation that crashes through end-times prophecy, remote viewing, ancient relics, and spiritual warfare. From the death of the pope and the mysterious prophecy of St. Malachy to CIA documents on the Ark of the Covenant, they connect the dots between esoteric threads and biblical foundations—asking what it all means for the times we're living in.But it doesn’t stop there. They dive into a full-on battle plan for fighting Nephilim in the apocalypse—complete with Marvel-style powers, biblical superhuman feats, and an AI-generated naming ceremony for their end-times alter-egos. It’s unfiltered, unscripted, and undeniably supernatural. Because when the veil starts to thin, you’d better be armed—with truth, with faith, and maybe even a Nephilim Blaster 2000.Become a member for ad-free listening, extra shows, and exclusive access to our social media app: theconfessionalspodcast.com/joinThe Confessionals Social Network App:Apple Store: https://apple.co/3UxhPrhGoogle Play: https://bit.ly/43mk8kZMy New YouTube ChannelMerkel IRL: @merkelIRLMy First Sermon: Unseen BattlesSasquatch and The Missing Man: merkelfilms.comMerkel Media Apparel: merkmerch.comSPONSORSSIMPLISAFE TODAY: simplisafe.com/confessionalsCONNECT WITH USWebsite: www.theconfessionalspodcast.comEmail: [e-mail] ADDRESS:Merkel Media257 N.

With a giant move, he's got a spear in one hand and he's running really fast. It spears, Dan, holds him up like this. Somebody else, shoot him in the face, shoot him in the face. They basically decapitated.

And I look over and there are two push and because I know I'm seeing a monster. Hey guys, thanks for tuning in this week. Last week, I dropped a bombshell on everybody letting you know that my wife, Lindsay, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. And I cannot remember exactly what was covered on last week's announcement. But I just want to open the show up this week letting you know what we know, which is basically last Tuesday when you were finding out that she has breast cancer, we were sitting in a doctor's office getting more information. And though I'm not going to share, remotely the amount of information that we got last week because we're trying to keep some things private. One of the biggest things that we wanted to do was let you guys know what's going on because there's a large amount of people who listen and watch the show on YouTube and Rumble who are Christians and will pray for our family. Lindsay has stage three breast cancer and we are determined to fight it. And like I said about the prayer, we really believe that the best thing that we can do is pray for Lindsay. We are pursuing all medical options and we're going to fight this

tooth and nail, but we strongly believe in the power of prayer and that God will heal Lindsay. And that's why we announced it last week because we wanted to take advantage of the fact that there are thousands of people who would come in agreeance with us and the evidence is there. We received thousands of emails, thousands of comments, thousands of DMs all over the place. letting us know that they're praying for us and giving us suggestions. And I tell you guys, it blessed me so much because last week coming out and letting you guys know what was going on, it was uncomfortable for me because it was really me pulling the curtain back. And I tend to be pretty private with a lot of my personal life. I think it was about a year ago, maybe more than a

year ago. I stopped posting my kids on social media because of some of the threats that were coming in. I've mentioned that before, but it's unfortunate, but that's where the life has taken us with this podcasting and the public perception, I suppose. We have to take precautions like that. And so when it came to letting you guys know about Lindsay, it was a little uncomfortable, but I knew that it was the right thing to do. And you guys came through huge. I told you last week that we were going to be letting you guys know and giving you frequent updates as to what her health is. And sometimes those updates will be just, you know, Lindsay's fighting the good fight, keep praying.

In fact, I suggest that, or I suppose that many weeks will be like that. But it's just me reminding you guys to please continue to pray for my wife. Because we, like I said, we believe in the healing. And it's funny because I, the week that we found out she was going to, that she was diagnosed with cancer. I was set to preach at church on Palm Sunday. And the sermon that I was preparing to preach was really the perfect sermon for me personally to preach. It was all about radical faith. And though I went through the scripture from Exodus to Mark and John, I would say this.

Mark 11, 22 through 25, I believe is the scripture. reference that I'm going to go into here. It's Jesus talking, and he says that if you have the faith, you can move these mountains, but you first must believe. And so when it comes to having to have faith for other people in healing, it's one thing. And that's something that I think a lot of us have experience in. But when it comes to having the faith that you need to move mountains with, to heal your wife, that God's going to heal your wife, it's a challenging thing. And I was faced with that challenge the past couple weeks. But not only does Jesus say that if you have this faith and you, but first you must believe, but he also says, as you're praying, you should be praying that it's

already been received. And so not only was I faced with this practical application and challenge in my faith to not only pray for my wife, but I should pray for my wife and believe that God will heal her and not only believe that God will heal her, but that he has already healed her. And so it took me through a spiritual boot camp. And I preached about that at church and other things when it comes to radical faith. But I strongly believe, in fact, I wholeheartedly believe that God is going to heal my wife and that it's going to be a testimony for her life, for my life, maybe even my kids' lives. Right now they don't know, but maybe one day they'll know. I mean, sure, they will know one day, but hopefully not too soon. And I'm really excited to see

the next chapter of our life. I'm just going to be frank and honest with you guys right now, kind of opening up. God has been expanding my calling in life. I've been very open. over the years that God called me into into podcasting. And I've shared that story about how that happened with how I was literally driving my truck one day. And the Holy Spirit spoke to me. I don't remember praying. I don't believe I was praying. It was just like this like download from the Holy Spirit.

And then a month later, the ball got rolling without me trying. Well, just how God called me into podcasting, God has been expanding my calling in life recently. He's been bringing up other Christian leaders. alongside of me who've been kind of showing me the ropes and really helping me visualize where things are going. And this calling into evangelism has been something that I've been called into since I was a teenager and I've been running from it for over 20 years. And it's not a surprise to me that as God in the last, I'd say six months has been really honing in and expanding my calling and opening doors that we start having this spiritual attack.

And I do believe that my wife's health is a spiritual attack. And to add to that, the day that you guys found out my wife had breast cancer is the same day we were in the doctor's office finding out more detail. That very same day, we just get home and I find out my mom texts us and says that she was taking my dad to the hospital, he was having a heart attack. there are other health issues throughout my family that I've been popping up. And guess who has a clean bill of health? Me.

And it really feels like there's this attack on people that are around me. And that's only, for me, it seems like that is something that is strategic, almost to knock me off the course of where my life has been going. I'm here to say it's not going to happen. I'm doubling down. I'm pretty, it's one of those things where you kind of feel almost, it's like maybe a righteous anger in the sense that like the, the audacity that they would even try to knock me off the game.

I'm just going to be doubling down. And once my wife is healed and we move past this season of life, we're going to go nuclear. We're going to go nuclear on the devil, you know? And so you guys will see that for sure along the journey. Oh, by the way, if you guys want to listen and watch the sermon that I preached, it is available on my YouTube channel, Merkel, IRL. It's a new YouTube channel that I started recently, just kind of like a dumping ground for

other things that I do. I think there's about four or five videos on there now. And my first sermon I ever preached is on there. It's the first video on the channel. and then this past weeks, two weeks ago, the sermon there. So, yeah, that's a bit of the update when it comes to Lindsay. She is still obviously fighting the breast cancer. It is stage three.

We are very, very grateful for everybody who reached out with prayers and love and suggestions on how to handle this situation. There was so many people who reached out with suggestions. And it was very much welcomed, and we greatly appreciate that. So today we have a different type of episode for you now that I got that ramble done for you is because I wanted you guys to visualize and if you're listening on audio here, I'm okay. All right. So last week I came on and I was really emotional. When I recorded that video, I think it was I was two days into finding out my wife had cancer. Jack can probably attest that there was probably 30, 40 minutes of a take. I just couldn't get through without crying. That was the best take we had where my eyes weren't so red. But it was very emotional. I understand that.

But we're about two weeks into it now. And the reality set in and it is what it is. We're fighting it. And I want you guys to know I'm okay. So we scrapped what the episode was going to be for today. And we decided just to record and let you just see me talk with you and my buddy's here in studio to know that I'm okay and that we're going to pull through on this. And so with that said, I have two people in studio with me.

One is producer Jack. Jack, can you say hi and bring yourself on camera? Let him know. Hello. Let him know who he is. That is the man, the myth, the legend, the guy that does all the production for this show now. I have not produced a show for probably, what would you say, Jack? Maybe 200 episodes.

Yeah. It's been a while. It's been a while. But he's doing a fine job and he's joining us here. It is late, by the way. We are recording this is 9.15 Eastern Time at night. This show needs to be out in less than three hours. We're going to do our best to get it out on time. If it's late, that's why. But also here joining us in studios, my buddy, I'm a good friend, Derek. Derek, how you doing, man?

Good man. And ladies, Jack's single still. Yes, Jack is single. Oh, we're already going there. Where are you going there? And Jack, this is a direct order from your boss. You are not allowed to cut that out. Okay? If that gets cut out, you, there will be, you'll be reprimmed. So ladies, listen, Jack is single and available. He's looking for a good young Christian woman. He is 29. So I'd say what, Jack, ballpark four years, give or take, both ways. Is that all right? Yeah, that works for me. Okay, cool. So send your resumes to contact at the confessionalspodcast.com, and we will go through your resume and pass on what we approved to Jack. speaking of contact at the confessionalspodcast.com, this might be a good time for me to say, go ahead and shoot us an email, let us know if you want to be on the show.

I've been in doctors' offices left and right the last few weeks, two weeks. It's been, it's just a blur for me. There has been next to zero time trying to look for guests to come in studio, because I tend to try to mix things up. So we're going to be relying heavily. In this season of my life and Lindsay's life and our family's life, we're going to be relying heavily on people emailing us and wanting to come on the show and share your perspective, story.

Jack, did you have a good Easter?

Yes. Jack, you can leave your mic unmuted it so you don't have to have the delay there, buddy. Do I have to teach them everything, Derek? Do I teach them everything? You make him nervous. I do make them nervous, but you know what? It's because I'm a meaning. I'm a big meaning. I'm going to try being nicer, Jack. I'm going to try to be nicer. Okay. All right. He's just like, yes, boss. Okay. But yeah, so this last week was Holy, week. I call it Holy Week. I know a lot of people that like to call it a Passion Week. But, you know,

it's been, it's been an interesting season of life when it comes to the Christian faith and the expansion over the last several months or so. Right now we're seeing, you know, there's a big expansion in the Christian Church with like Gen Z going into church. People are curious. They're starving for spiritual existence. And you're seeing in the younger people. And I think, honestly, part of it, I feel like, is the fact that younger people tend to have more of a rebellious spirit when it comes to, you know, their elders or the generation that comes before them. So if the generation that came before them is very anti-religion, godless, atheistic. Join the rebellion, right? Right. They're like, well, we see where that has gotten us. And we don't like what we're

sitting in. Maybe we'll try this whole spirituality thing. And you see a lot of it on TikTok. It's called witch talk. Witchcraft is going crazy on TikTok and other social media platforms. But you're also seeing it in the Christian church too, where there's a lot of younger people just coming in and exploring things, which is always welcomed. But that paired with all these seemingly ancient mysteries that are coming back around to life. And, you know, it's had to be what a month ago now, the Ark of the Covenant, that bomb show? Three, four weeks. And I wanted to talk about it, but then, you know, everything went haywire in my life. And I didn't really have a chance to. So maybe we can talk about that today. But I don't know exactly where we should start. Do you want to start with,

do you want to start with the Pope and the news from the day? It's quite shocking, yes. Yeah. Were you shocked by that? Yeah. I mean, think about it, it's Resurrection Sunday. Yeah. And he's dead. Is that like a bad omen or? I guess so. I didn't think about that way. I just feel like it's a bad omen. Yeah, you know, that's actually, yeah, I didn't even thought about that. And he's a Jesuit, and like, according to some old prophecy, he was like the black pope, supposed to be the last pope. Yeah, so have you heard about that prophecy? The St. Malachi's prophecy? So everybody listening right now, there was a bishop, I believe, and was a, it was a, Is it 1,200s? I think it was 14, 1500s. But they, I think it was actually older than that, because he predicted the next 112 popes.

Of course, they're usually pretty old. What was that, Jack? It was the 12th century. 12th century. 12th century. I'm wrong. It's locked up upstairs. I don't even have it on my notes, so don't remember it.

I have a few words here as notes. But he predicted the next 112 popes, and Pope St. Francis was the 112th. And I guess the whole, the whole prophecy was that the last Pope 112 was going to see in this whole like end times revelation situation, right? Is that the case? The end of the prophecy basically says that the seven hills are going to get destroyed. The seven hills? Yeah, like Rome is built on seven Hills. Okay. So there's like destruction and it says that's the end. And the year was like 2027. So is it safe to say we could throw that prophecy out the window? I mean, he's dead.

Well, like now we're going into 113 now. Or is the Pope coming the Antichrist? So he had the last real like Christian person. Maybe. So the next Pope could be the Antichrist? Maybe. I don't know. I'm just I'm just throwing things out there. Jack, what do you think about the Antichrist? Because I know you're like one of those nerds that look into, I said I was going to be nice. Ladies, he's single. Where do you think the, where do you think the antichrist is coming from? I honestly, I don't know. You don't know anymore? You don't know anymore? You used to have opinions on it. Well, I mean, I believed it was like the Middle Eastern area, Mediterranean area. So like Turkey, you know, because of the Ottoman Empire. But I have no clue. I mean, a lot. So people will attribute the Pope,

some people will attribute the pope to being the false prophet and, you know, rather than being the Antichrist, but ushering in the Antichrist, right? So that's kind of the point that a lot of people, some people will make. I keep saying a lot of people, but it's really just some. But then there's like, Derek and I have talked about this, that there's also people who believe that the Antichrist is going to come from, you know, Great Britain or Rome. Really? Or even like the Roman Empire.

being part of the historical or the prophecy of, you know, the Antichrist. I have no clue, though. And when you see things like Chryslam being as, you know, heavily pushed as what they are, I mean, there's a pretty decent argument for it coming from the Antichrist coming from either one, especially with the way the imams are and how imams are, the 12th imam is one of those that is considered to be, you know, the anti-Christians. antithesis of of Jesus coming back.

You know, like, they look at Jesus's return as that's the Antichrist. So, I don't know. I mean, there's just a lot of weird. There's a lot of those ties there that kind of make you, you know, think there could be something to a Muslim or Islamic Antichrist

tying together the religions. So you're putting your resume out there, right? So he's putting his resume out there. So he's accepting those resumes. That's the kind of knowledge you've smart man. For the rest of your life. Okay.

Jack's right there. Dropping bombs. No, but I know that there's been a lot of theories and stuff as to where the Antichrist is going to come from. I remember when I think it was the early 2000s and stuff, there was, I remember there were Christians that were like, you know, I think Obama's the Antichrist. And I'm just like, I don't know. I was young. I didn't know. I didn't really even care that much, to be honest with you.

I was just like, whatever, I don't care. I don't got kids and I just don't care, you know? But it's an interesting thing. Where do you think the end of Christ is coming from? Do you have any ideas on that? I really, I'm just torn. There's so many different teachings. It could be King Charles.

I mean, like, there's good cases for that as well. It's hard to say. I try to not overcomit in my end days thinking because no one really knows. Yeah. And I hate to, like, build my house somewhere. that's my problem is that I just married myself to that idea that like if these really smart guys can't figure it out and can't agree on something, there's a good chance I'm not going to understand or figure it out myself. Right. And I just, I just lived in that box for many years. It's just like, eh, whatever. Like, it's not a salvation issue. So I'll manage.

Right. I mean, honestly, some people may not like this, but is Trump a possible good candidate at the same time? He's got like. Scottish lineage from kings and all this other things. He's a time traveler, so... He's a time traveler. He's working with the most Thai musk, you know? Like, I don't know. It's, they're interesting things. Elon, man, he's like a...

I think I saw it. I forget where I saw this. Somewhere on X, I think, it was like a meme saying that he's the Pied Piper of transhumanism. And I was just like, huh. Yeah, with Elon, I... It's like, he's one of those guys where... So I don't know if anybody else.

I'm sure there's somebody out there that can relate to this, but I'm going to relate it to, from my perspective of my childhood. He's like the bullies that I had as a kid where one day they'd be a bully and the next day they're your friend. And you just don't know which one they're going to be, but when they're your friend, you take it. And that's how I feel about him. It's just like, well, when he's on my side and he's doing something good, I'll take it. But I got to always look at him sideways and every day wake up, say, hey, what side are you on the fence today? because he's, I don't know, man.

Like, I don't hate the guy, but, you know, some of the things he does, I just, he's clearly about the transhumanism. Yeah, are very suspect. Yeah. For sure. You know what I think it is? I think he, I think he will do whatever in the moment is best for his ultimate agenda. So if in the moment, it's best to, you know, make sure that X is a free speech,

platform for whatever reason, he's going to make sure that happens. Because X is number one. Right. Make sure it's the number one, and it is the number one place people go for their news, all that, right? But I think the moment he needs to squash speech for whatever progress of his own agenda, I think he'll do it. I think he'll do it. I think he will too. I think he will too. But yeah, I mean, going back, like, so the Pope, it'll be interesting two weeks because then there's like a conclave, and so all the bishops from around the world get together, and then they vote for the next pope. But if there's not supposed to be a pope, what's going to happen? If the prophecy is true. The prophecy is not true.

Like, if, listen, if it's not a biblical prophecy, then you just take it as a grain of salt. And we've taken this one for many grains, for many years. Yeah, for sure. And at this point, I think we can put a nail in the coffin. Two weeks. Two weeks. We mean two weeks. When the conclave's over, we'll see. Okay.

All right, you got a two-week window. So maybe, maybe in two weeks, the world's going to be completely different. In the update, yes. What would be the first sign of the Antichrist arriving? Like, what would be the first sign? Like him just doing signs and wonders? Is that Jack? Jack, that would be right?

I forgot that you were referring to me. Yeah, man. You're part of the show today. Whoa. I was flipping to Derek and I was very... We're just talking, chit-chat and hanging out. You know, oh, by the way, Derek, he owns Tongues of Fire. And that is a pizza trailer.

Trailer. In the Marival area. In the Marival area. You got some gigs coming up. Where are they at? And then we'll get back on topic. Oh, it's just... We're at Cates Cove.

We're at Casual Pined. We're going to be in Greenback. What days? Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday? Yeah. Where can they find the schedule? Is it anywhere on?

We're going to be on Facebook. Facebook? Cool, man. All right. There you go. There you go. I'm out there. Jack, what's the first sign of the Antichrist coming?

I don't know, honestly. What? What? Why are you, you know, the first sign of the Antichrist, let me look at it up real quick. Okay. Back to our regular schedule program. But, yeah, I don't know, man. We got some interesting times ahead of us, that's for sure.

I mean, I don't really. I don't claim to know what's going to happen, what's coming down the road, but it's going to be interesting. I think it's in May. I think it's May. Yeah, I think it's mid-May. I have Pastor Alan De DeO and his family coming in studio again, and he's going to be talking about his new book, They Lied to You About the Rapture. Or is it they lied to us about the rapture?

I think it might be they lied to us about the rapture. It's you? Yeah. They lie to you about the rapture. And so we're going to have a good old conversation there. And I'm going to be like, tell me what they love. lied to me about, man. Yeah, that sounds so interesting.

So, yeah, I'm going to let them go. I'm just going to say handcuffs off, go crazy. Yeah. Talk to me. Well, I think all of this kind of ties into the arc that we were going to talk about too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was really interesting. That came out three weeks ago.

It was the CIA document, right? Project Sunstreak, where they had a remote viewer go in and they asked him to see, how do they actually do that? They don't just say, they'll look at the arc. They kind of give them like an object. Yeah, I think they give them a point of focus and it might be an object, but I know this, in this case, I think it was coordinates, wasn't it? I was pretty sure it was coordinates, which is interesting. Why did they give them coordinates? Where was the coordinates? Do you have any idea? Well, so if you, we printed out the pages and then they show a tower at one point and then the word mosque misspelled, which was interesting.

But the tower actually is, there's a mosque next to the dome of the rock. I forget what the other mosque is called. But there's a tower right there and it looks just like the drawing in the remote viewer. And it's interesting because most mosques have like that big, um, nice pointed round top where this one's more like a straight tower and then has like more of like a candle looking top. But that is right on the holy mount. And so as like they kept remote viewing, they said it was underneath.

It was wet. And then when you look at the mosque, um, you can actually see that there's like tunnels underneath. the Holy Mount, there's water in certain areas. So the description was just like pretty on point for what they've already seen under the Holy Mount. So that was really interesting. What did you think when you, we read through that? Yeah. Yeah, I find it interesting. And, you know, what I want is for them to actually find the Ark of the Covenant. You know, that's, I mean,

that would just be amazing. But the fact that in 1988, they're looking for it and using remote viewing. And then that documentary was, or the documents were declassified in the early 2000s. And the fact that they're just now coming out, really making the circulation, makes you wonder if there's a supernatural connection there. You know, kind of like, I think, yeah, it's the first chapter in the book of Enoch. it says that what was about to be written was not for this time but for a future time. And I feel like we're in that future time because the book of Enoch, I think it was in, what, 47, 48 when they discovered the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Enoch was in there. And then since then, it's just kind of laid dormant until the last like 10 years or so and it's just been exploding.

And so maybe it's something similar where, you know, yeah, they were declassified, but maybe now's the time. for it to really start making circulation and making it its rounds to you know for for who knows what purpose but i mean the ark of the covenant is such a supernatural physical object uh it's one of the rare physical objects that literally have biblical um points of focus backing up its supernatural aspects right so like you know people uh that we we make relics out of everything right? You know, like the shrouded turn is something that has been coming back. And I think the shrouded turn is like, you know, amazing. And I think the new evidence is behind. I've been trying to find somebody to come on to really talk in depth about it. But like, I think the new evidence is

coming out about it is, it's, I think it's, it's earth shattering, you know? Like, it literally might, if anybody doesn't know what the shroud turn is, it's, it's, theoretically, supposedly, it's the burial cloth of Christ. And when he, and there's an imprinted face on this cloth. And they say this is the face of Christ. And the theory from what I've heard and what I choose to believe is that when he resurrected and those claws were on him, there was this burst of light that basically was like an x-ray and it imprinted this image on his burial shroud.

And anyways, that has kind of become like this holy reliance. right? But there's no stories within the scripture backing up its holy supernatural power right. The Ark of the Covenant however chapters. I mean, all over, man. All over. I mean, like,

I just talked about on Palm Sunday, it was one of the stories, you know? Like, when the new generation was leaving the wilderness, when it was time to go, they left the same way they came in. God part of the Red Sea, they entered the wilderness.

40 years later, he stops the Jordan River for them to walk on dry ground. But how he stopped the Jordan River, now he could have just done it snapping his finger. But it was, it says when the toes of the priest carrying the Ark of the Covenant touched the Jordan River, the water stopped flowing. And all these people, millions of people walked across. I wonder how many people there were. You know, if you think about there's about two million people, give or take that went in, then that whole generation had to die off. They usually only counted the men, too. That's true. Well, when I was doing the calculations, I think the men, I think actually there was a, I think there was a number mentioned of how many men there were. If I remember correctly, the number of 600,000 sticks out in my head. And so you got, let's just say 600,000 men, then the women plus all the children, livestock. So let's just say around too. And they had many wives, possibly. Possibly. Possibly. I'm just saying it's probably. But, and so. they go in, but there's definitely probably less people leaving, even though there's people having

kids and stuff while you're out there. It's like that whole generation had to die off for them to leave. So I imagine there's probably less. Anyways, they leave the same way they came in and they didn't go in with the Ark of the Covenant, but they left with the Ark of the Covenant. So what's really interesting tying it all back to the end days is that like the Dome of the Rock, the Muslims don't believe that there was any evidence of there ever being a Jewish religious site on the Holy Mount. So, like, discovering the ark on the Holy Mount would be incredibly profound in pushing the building of the Third Temple, which would be, again, a huge marker for the end days.

So do you think it's there, then? Well, I'm not going to go off a remote viewer, but I think it's highly likely that it's there. So that brings up another interesting thing because, you know, you say you're not going to go off a remote viewer. Why is that? It's just scriptures is the only truth, like you said earlier. I feel like to me, like I'm going to just depend on the scriptures. You know, there's always extra things out there that are very tickling to the ears. And they're really interesting to think about. It's like thought experiment to me, but it's not going to like affect the deep of my beliefs. depths of what I truly understand. It's like proceed with caution. Yes. Right.

Yeah. And so it's like, you know, it's not to say the remote viewer is wrong because there's remote viewing is a very real thing. Like it's 100% very real. Now accurate, it's not 100% accurate. But it's just one of those things where I guess with from our faith, it's like proceed with caution. And not me proceeding with it, but like, like, I'm not going to be remote viewing is what I'm saying. But as far as like the taking it in as as fact, you know, so yeah, I don't know.

But the Ark of the Covenant is definitely something that has gotten my attention. And again, like you got the Ark of the Covenant, the shrouded turn, and there's something else that has popped up recently. I can't remember exactly what it was now. It was after the arc of the Covenant News broke, and it really didn't make much headways. I'm drawing a blank as to what it was. I feel like it was some kind of landmark or relic that they had, I don't know, I don't know.

But then, well, we just did that episode with Rick Renner on the nose arc. And when you look at all the, all the, the evidence for that site. It's just, it's, to me, it's, it's, it's pretty overwhelming. So, you know, it's just, I find it really interesting that there's this, like, rise of, um, of biblical history, I guess, you know, and the artifacts and the archaeology. Like, I, I find it really interesting. Did you guys see, uh, I haven't, I've never seen this before, but apparently it's been a ritual going on for a long time.

The Holy Fire, they're calling it, the Holy Fire ritual. Have you heard about this? So I heard about it today on Instagram. Yes. And so, you know, it's true. Tell me more. But I looked it up on YouTube and it backed up the claims from Instagram. So you really know. Okay. I cross-referenced with X. It's true. Yeah. Yeah. Community notes says it's true. But no. So apparently the where theoretically they buried Jesus

is a holy place, right? It's a holy location. And I can't remember exactly what it's called. It matters, but it doesn't matter. So every year during Passion Week, Holy Week, they do this, I guess, ritual is what you want to call it. The day before Easter, so on Saturday, these orthodox priests go into the tomb with candles that aren't lit and they come out with these candles lit. But they say that the power and the presence of the Holy Spirit descends or comes on to that location.

And these candles light up with fire. And I guess it's like physical evidence of the miraculous. this, but what's really, it's like, okay, cool story. You're lying. Like you, you lit them yourself, you know, and you've been doing this for centuries. But what I found interesting was what I saw on video, which you know is real. But these people, they come out and these people have to have all these, like, candles. And for a period of time, not very long, I would say probably, I got the sense there was probably about 15, 20 minutes, so not very long. But people are taking this fire that's on these candles

and they're running them underneath their face and on their face their hair and nothing's burning. So like literally you have fire, fire, just they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, I saw this one lady. She'd like, probably like in her 50s or 60s

older woman, uh, middle age. Uh, and she was just running this fire underneath her, her chin. Like, I was holding it there. And then like, like, like, her hair wasn't catching fire, nothing. She's a big smile on her face. And I was like, whoa. Whoa. Yeah. Like, I was like, I was like, how does it like, how does one do that magic trick? Is it like the axe, like tongue of fire then? Like the, oh, way to plug your pizza seat.

Well, that's why I'd say that. But the, but is it like an actual spiritual fire that's like physical then? Interesting. So like a spiritual thing that's manifesting in the physical. Yes. As far as like a spiritual fire. Very interesting. What's that scripture verse? It's Axe 2. Jack has a computer. For some reason, I want to say Axe 118. It might be 118. I could be wrong. But that's an interesting take while you guys looked that up.

I was like, you looked over at me. Well, I mean, I thought I was like, I couldn't do it that quickly. I was looking up to Holy Fires stuff. Usually, Rogan's Jamie is a lot quicker, so you just got to keep up. Yeah, I keep up. It's not 118. Not 118. Okay. I just threw that out there just to come up.

Get you started. 218, right? So that's an interesting take, though, is that it could be a physical manifestation of a spiritual phenomenon. That's something I hadn't even thought of. Two, three. They saw tons of fire.

Read that real quick. Jack, go ahead. Read it. Let me get myself on camera. There you go. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. X-2-3. Wow.

That's interesting. What's the context of that? It's filled with the Holy Ghost, yeah. So it's like, it was so evident that they were full of the Holy Spirit that from like everyone who was in the group, they could look and it looked like there was like a fire above them. And it was the power of the Holy Presence of the God. Wow.

Resting upon them that looked like fire. Wow. That's interesting. Yeah. Whoa. See, now that, see, that makes price of admission right there. Is that cool? Everybody just gained.

a lot on this episode from that. So they go in the caves and they come out with supernatural candles of fire. They come out with these supernatural candles of fire. I was just looking at it. So look at this. So I want, you know what, this will these, hang on a second. Yeah, I'm not going to go find it. I'll show you later.

That sounds great. Maybe Jack can pull it up later. The link will be in the show notes. The link will be in the show notes if we remember. We're producing this pretty quickly and late at night. but no yeah man like it uh i found a really interesting you know modern miracles and it's like what do you do with that you know because i mean it's right there apparently they've been doing this for a long time again 1200 years 1,000 years at least wow i've never heard of it that's crazy

wow 1200 years that's that's uh i mean it's well i wonder what caused this quote unquote discovered, like, who was the first person to walk in? They're like, whoa! My candles just lit up. And they don't burn. They were checking to see if Jesus was still in the tomb. 800 years later. He's still in the tomb.

Still not here, guys. Well, that reminds me, like, in the arc, there's, like, the remote viewer when he gets near the arc, it says there's, like, there's a drawing. on the drawings from the remote viewer. And there's like a string. And he like drew what looked like mummies. He wrote mummies. And there's like a whole string of people,

which is really weird because it makes me think of like the resurrection power of God. Mm-hmm. You know, like the ark took life. But like if you're around the presence of God, like what if there's like priests or whoever it is down in there are like half alive? So, like, they're like, mummy priests that come alive when needed? Maybe, I don't know. Come on, man.

Tell me the facts. Tell me the facts. I read it just like you. No, it's... Don't be uncomfortable. You can theorize here. It's just really interesting. Like...

In a world full of content, better that they influence in those who most they want. They're of the people most important in our lives. Los Abuelos, influencers. The food and now are very have done

have been have been have done for the food of the new generation that's what is the

pleasure to cook and give time to a guise a good food that's

generation enjoy it's from Europe It's from Europe It's confirmed we've we've

we've we've got done this we're all the world to tryer all before to us

Like if it were to in my, here's my brain. This is where I'm going. If there's a secret sect of like people who knew the ark was there from like Solomon's time and there's a priestly order that guarded the ark. And then as they were like the chiefs were dead, they would like go down and be like guarding it. And they would be put in the presence of God to like physically watch over the ark. I feel was was there not a scene from Indiana Jones like this? This is what the remote viewer did. I didn't steal it from the movie.

No, but I'm saying. Wasn't there like a scene, though, in Indiana Jones? I don't remember a scene like that. Maybe it was the mummy. Maybe it was the mummy. There's definitely a mummy that comes live in the mummy. Maybe the remote viewer was ripping off Indiana Jones. That's what I was thinking.

Yeah. That's what I was thinking. It's like perfect time. It's like, I just saw this great movie and I know all these nerds in this remote viewing office has not seen this movie yet. I'm seeing mummies and... A leather hat and a whip. A chest with angels on top.

The mummies are coming alive. Oh, no! There's a remote viewer I met out in Utah. His name is Paul Smith, and he was part of that program, I believe. Maybe not that specific day that they were doing that, but he was part of the first group of remote viewers that the government was using for these things. And he's a really, really nice guy, really nice guy.

And I guess he teaches at a college or something like that out in Utah now. But yeah, anyways, the remote viewing stuff with that is just, it's on a level. I totally forgot about that. I forgot about the mummies, man. No one's talked about it. Like all the news cycles of this is like no one talked about the burial mummy things that are around the ark. that come to life when you come too close to her. That's how I depict a mummy.

So when I think mummy, I think kind of like a half alive, half dead thing. Oh, is this the Ark of the Covenant? Raw. Just kidding, man. You have chosen poorly. I'm backing away.

I'm backing away. You know, speaking of resurrecting power, I want to bring this up too because this happened during the week leading up to Christ's crucifixion. And I talked about this at church. So,

which I find, I find this just fascinating on many different levels. And this is actually something that I don't think I actually brought up during the sermon. But the pulse of energy. So let me start with the Exodus. So we were talking about, we were just talking about the Israelites going across the Jordan River. And the first thing they do over there is they take out Jericho, right? Well, they run into the angel of the Lord first.

There you go. Jesus, it just shows up. They, they, yeah, that's a big deal. So now I understand why they had radical faith. That's right. But so, but in the story, it's just like they, they yell and the walls come down. And it, it, you could make an argument that there was a godly supernatural pulse of energy that went out. Frequency.

shot frequency that shot out and tore these walls down. And then you kind of see that in New Testament with this story that, you know, I brought up and I can't take credit for it. Pastor Rick Renner, who's been on the show. We talked about Arch of Covenant with him. He is the one who, I believe, connected these dots originally. At least that's where I found it. He said that in the Garden of Gassimini, when they came to arrest Jesus, that they asked him if he was Jesus of Nazareth. And he says, in the Bible it says, I am he, but Rick says it's more accurately translated as just I am mirroring Old Testament with Moses. But when he said I am, there was this pulse of energy that was shot out from him because it says that the men who are there. And he has this,

I don't want to say it's a theory, but he basically, through the Greek language, he's a Greek scholar, he surmises that there was 300 to 600 people there. Wow. Like, we're talking like,

like, just imagine that. Like, you're going to arrest a carpenter. Why do you need 300 people? Because for three years, you were witnessed to the supernatural power he was displaying.

And so you're like, we're going to need backup. You know what I mean? That's crazy. And so he says I am. And in John, I think it's John 18, it says that they were all basically thrown to the ground. And in the Greek words that were used there to pick that, that it wasn't just that they kind of stoned. They were pushed down to the ground.

And then when they get back up, they ask them again, are you Jesus of Nazareth? I imagine they were quite fearful at that time. and he says, I am, I already told you this. And the fact that they didn't get knocked down again is literally a flex. Like he's literally, he's showing them his supernatural power and then showing them that he's choosing not to do it again, which is putting putting it like him in the driver's seat. So he's literally, when they take him away, allowing him to take them. And they understand that because they were just knocked to their rear ends a second ago.

So it's also important to note that when you say that they fell, the word fall, it's meant to be as though they fell as though they were dead. It looked like they were dead. Right. That's what he has said. So, like, you imagine, you imagine sometimes you see people who are touched by the Holy Spirit. and it looks like they fall as if they were dead like that it's it's that kind of power right

and and I fully believe that he could have if he wanted to just with that kind of power execute 300 600 that's what the Jews wanted do you want me to tie in here I got a huge tie in for you yeah let me just finish my thing here go ahead so but like that's what they wanted right you know like that's what they wanted They wanted him to come and go ham. So anyways, Rick takes it to Mark 14, and in Mark 14, it's telling the story.

It adds a detail about this boy who was following them as they were leading him away. And they tried grabbing the boy, and he slipped away. And as he slipped away, his linen fell off and he ran away naked. And the Greek word for that word linen is syndon. and there's two other words in Greek that mean linen that's used in the Bible, but none of them were ever used in the same context as Sindon. When Sindon is used in the New Testament, it's always used as a burial cloth.

And so the only other person and situation in the New Testament where Sindon is used is when they were describing what they wrapped Jesus in after he was crucified, and they put him in the tomb. And so they wrapped him in Sindon. Well, if this boy is wearing a linen that's used, the word is used as Sindon, and they try grabbing him and it so easily falls off and he runs away naked, the idea is that he was actually resurrected when that pulse of energy went out from Christ and knocked those soldiers down. that same power has the power to resurrect the dead.

And the idea is that he was a dead boy who was actually following the one who resurrected him. And when I looked into this because I was like, okay, this has amazing written all over it, but is there a cemetery there? And so the Garden of Kisemite sits on the Mount of Olives and literally at the base. of Mount of Olives is an ancient cemetery today. It has about 150,000 graves, and it dates back to before Jesus. So, and I think it was only, I think it's like 200 or 300 yards away from the Garden of Gassimini. It's right there.

Wow. So the shroud of turns actually the boy. There you go. Oh, shoot! Oh, shoot! I'm just best. So, so, see, who knows? But I just, I found that really interesting.

And when you were talking about the mummies and stuff and the resurrect, like, there's so much. Like people don't even realize, and people realize it, I'm sure. But like, it's not talked about a lot how when Christ resurrected from the dead, there were other dead people walking around. And it was just like, there's a precedent and a pattern here of a power being displayed resurrecting the dead. And I just find an inching. What were you going to say? Oh, no, Jack, doesn't it happen when, and it's crucifixion, too? I'm pretty sure that there was people that were resurrected.

No, so here's what's crazy, is that when Joshua was crossing the Jordan River, it's an angel of the Lord, but that's actually, I'm pretty sure it's Zavayot. And so Zavoyote is Lord of hosts. So, like, there's a differentiation in, like, the angels. And Joshua actually worships this angel. It's funny, I had a Mormon lady, she came, and she was, like, trying to push out her Mormon stuff in me. And I was like, well, you know, when they cross the Jordan. and like, are you an angel worshiper? Because I'm not an angel worshiper.

And like Joshua's worshipping an angel. So like, that's Christ. God and flesh. Yeah. Or we're all angel worshippers. And she just was like, ugh. She had nothing to say to it.

We got more, we got more on the Mormon stuff coming next week. Good to know. I bumped. I originally was going to have Heidi Love on for this episode. But I just wanted to sit and talk with you guys and just kind of hang out and stuff. people know I'm breathing. I'm okay. You're doing good. Yeah, I mean, I'm doing as good as can, you know. You're still smiling. So that's awesome. Yeah, I'm trying. Yeah, good days and bad days.

But, uh, yeah, so next week will be Heidi Love. But, uh, so, so she didn't really know what the Mormon didn't really know what to do with that, huh? Yeah, actually, she just, like, walked out and then she would regularly come in and try to pass tracks to my kids and she never came back again. I Bible stumped her. Um, no, but like, Zavoyot's so cool because he's like, it's in a lot of the prophetic books, I think in Isaiah, and it references as Zavio a lot. And I think that's like the precarnic Christ in the Old Testament. And what's super mind-blowing is that if you think Christ who is half Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, right, he is God in flesh. So when he speaks, I am, he's speaking of his true personhood as the Lord of hosts. Now the Lord of Hosts is like

the King, the General of all the hosts of heaven. So he's like, the coolest Marvel hero you could ever imagine, right? And all of a sudden, he's just Jesus. And all of a sudden he goes, oh, yeah. And it's just like, like that's so cool. Also in Revelation, when Jesus returns, he's on his white horse, and he says his tongue is what, a sword? He literally, like, this is how I understand it.

Jesus literally speaks. He doesn't have to fight. He just speaks. And the game's over. So, like, all he has to do is utter the words of the scriptures and the game is over. What do you think about the idea of when, you know where I'm going with this?

I've been thinking about this so much recently. I've been thinking about this so much recently. I've probably even mentioned it to you before. But it's been popping up a lot recently, people I talk to, whether they believe it or they heard of it. And I had never heard of this before. But the idea that when, when, basically the idea is that we come back with Christ and to clean house, like, we're part of that, that army. And like, I'm thinking,

I kind of, I kind of think I would enjoy that. What color of horse do you want? Oh, I don't need a horse. I want a Nephilim Blaster 2000. Like, I got, you want Golias magical weapon. I want something that's going to just, like, all, all I need is my renewed body that's, that's, you know, Indestructible. Indestructible. And give me like a Nephilim's lightsaber. And just, I just want to go great. And like, you know, and I can just imagine if this is true.

I don't know. Yeah. But if this is true and it happens like this. God, I'd be very grateful. But like, I can imagine he'd just be like, like sitting there on his horse. And he's like, my children, go play. Have fun. And he just watches us do our thing.

And then when he's just had enough, just like twitches his pinky and it's done. The game's over. All right guys, go home. It's like an old Atari game game over and it's just like, but I also heard this this, I think it's definitely a theory. A lot of the

revelation when it comes to interpretation and the end times is, you know, up to interpretation. But this idea that when God comes back to take the church with him, that

there, there will be, and this is just something that I heard, I'm not even saying I believe this, but I choose to want to believe it. Okay, that there will be certain, how do I say it, certain believers, saints that are uniquely qualified to not actually be resurrected with Christ, but, or to be resurrected with the church, but to, like they're hand-picked to stay behind

and just go nuts. And just go nuts. What if that was your faith and so you never died and you're destroying Nephlin, like the days of Noah in Revelation? And he just like supernaturally just kept you through the whole thing. I welcome it. That would be awesome. I welcome it.

Like, as he's like, like going back up in the clouds or something, I'd be like, yo, God, before you leave me here. Can you just heal the bum's shoulder, fix the back real quick? Give me a fighting chance, you know? Like, I might see you in five minutes, but give me a shot here, you know? And that's what's so cool. It's like he's so, like, infinite in his power and what he can do and not do. Yeah, I mean, I think we, we all come to the table with preconceived notions of how things are going to be, what they're going to look like, what's written in the word.

but by by doing that to a certain extent we do put God in a box now there are certain things like the Bible says it take it to the bank but there's a lot of there is a lot of gray and it you know they it depends on what your your your view is on certain things right as to what's possible so people who don't don't come to the table with a supernatural worldview that are Christians they're not going to want to even entertain this conversation. Hold up real quick because Jesus never even says there's Christians. He says there's believers and unbelievers. So you either believe what he did and what he said or you don't.

Right. But there are believers who don't believe in the supernatural worldview. Believers who don't believe? Make that make sense. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just messing with you. But for people like us with the show, and you know, you talk about a lot of the stuff that,

the crazy stuff that happened in the Old Testament. And I guess what we can say is like you have the supernatural world view where you're like, you read it in the scripture and you believe that it could still happen today, right? But there are some crazy stuff that happened that just like I literally, I forget where I found out about this. I don't know if I read it or if I heard somebody talk about it, but it's just really briefly mentioned. I think it's in First Kings. Either First Kings or First Kings or First Kings.

First Kings, I think it is. I know it's 18. Elijah, that's Kings, right? Yeah. So at the very end of the chapter, he has to get to what city is that? I can't remember. You're talking about when he defeats all of the?

prophets of bail and he runs super fast. Yes. Yes. Yes. It literally says that God gave him this strength and he tucks his sash into his or his robe or something into a sash and God gave him this strength to run ahead of the chariots. Like he literally was Captain America. Like you see Captain America running super fast. God's like, yeah, go ahead. Imagine this like old gray bearded guy just like pulling his cloak up and just blowing past everybody. How old was he when that happened? I have no idea. That's a great question.

It's First Kings 18, I think. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I got it up here. So it says, yeah, verse 46, the last verse, then the Lord gave special strength to Elijah. He tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab's chariot all the way to the entrance of Jesreal. Like, I had to hear somebody talk about this.

Because now this is sticking in my head. Whoever was talking about this said that they ran the numbers or something. And they estimate that the distance he ran was about 16 miles. Wow. Like, dude ran 16 miles superhuman speed. Well, like, how fast is a cherry go? It's got to be over 20 miles an hour. How many horses does it have first?

An Olympic runner runs about the same. What's the horsepower on that bad boy? Oh, man. You know? Yeah. Can you imagine that, though? All of a sudden, like, you're in these ancient times. And all of a sudden, you see Elijah run by you and this cloud of dust is flying up.

And it's just like, well, there goes Elijah doing. Or we're in the end days killing Nephilim and we need super speed. Bro, give me it. Give me it. Give me it. Oh, you're teasing. I'm teasing. Cairns.

Absolutely. Jack, if you had to choose one superpower to fight an end times nephalum army, what would it be? What would you choose? Like from the Bible. How about that? Like things we've seen in scripture. If you could just do one thing. That's not fun.

It's biblical. Yeah. No. All right. So you're limiting God, there? Yeah. He's limiting God. I'm excluding Marvel.

No, you can't because Marvel has superhuman speed, just like how the matter of it. So we're going to include Marvel. Rules of engagement. Let's say that Marvel superpowers are present in the Bible because we see it right here. So let's just say they're all present. Maybe not in the Bible, but possible. Can't say it's not possible. So with that said, what superhuman superpower would you choose to fight an end-times Nefellum army with?

Drop it in the chat below in the comments section. Let us know. This should be the show art for the, for the episode. Oh, yeah. Derek, that was good. What would I choose? Yeah, what would you choose? You'd be quiet over there, so I'm putting you on the spot.

Okay. So I have two things going through my mind. Okay. So number one is you have Ant-Man who has the ability to get gigantic, right? Nice. Like he can, he literally, he literally like could be the height of like a 40-story building. Yeah. Yeah. Or I like it.

I can have the power of Thor and Thor can like summon lightning. He's got super strength. He's got speed. He can like do all this stuff. He can fly with his hammer. Like there's a lot of stuff. Okay. Okay, so if you choose Thor,

I don't know if we can go with Thor because Thor was a god. So like, choose one power, one power that Thor had. Because Thor had at all. Oh, okay. You know what I'm saying? Like, what are you trying to be like Jesus or something over there? Come on now.

Back up. Now we're going back to the Bible thing. I told the rules of engagement. No, we make the rules of engagement as we want, right? So go with, go and Marvel Superpowers, Marvel Superpowers. Marvel's superpowers, but you can only choose one. Not one character, one power.

All right, I'll just go gigantic then. Gigantic? Yeah, I can get gigantic. Because then you can just beat up anybody. You can stomp on them. That's really good. I want to see giant Jack versus like Mothra, but like a Nephilim. So like, you know, the Inokian 40 footer and then Jack's 40 feet and they're like,

that'd be awesome. Yeah. I liked it. I like it. Okay. What about you? I would want to be transported. I think, if I'm going to go like a little biblical here.

So like an axe with the Ethiopian like where he likes, was it Stephen that like was like whist the way. Yeah. Just be able to like go somewhere. So be able to just like who, like like just a window. Just show up somewhere. I like that. I like that because it's going to be very hard to hit you. Oh yeah.

And therefore you won't get in. Ooh. Yeah. Yeah. Because you can get in and get out real fast. So like you could be like the spy of the army. I'll supply all the weapons. Yeah.

We're like, yeah, we need you to go behind enemy lines. Tony's got the wrong Nephilim blaster and I'll just show up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, like, you could, like, go behind enemy lines and even listen to what they had to say because as soon as they realize you there, you're gone. See, that's pretty sweet. Yeah, I like that. I like that.

So we got a monster over here. Like, he's just like a lady killer. He's a lady killer. He's a lady killer. He's a giant. He's a giant. He's a giant. He's a giant.

and you're what would we call you? Teleportation, I guess. Yeah, but that's like, that's what that's what you're doing. What would we call you the teleporter? Oh, I see. The name.

Yeah. I'm stumps. Rividing. Riving. How about you just tell us what you want to be. Yeah, tell us your power. I will think of a name for me. Okay.

Shoot, now you're putting me on the spot. No. Hmm. Well, honestly you said so giant right you're going to be a giant

so you're going to go into a giant I could be gigantic or tiny that's one of those powers that's great can I interject real quick there's an anime and there's a girl that literally can just construct stuff

and she pulls weapons out of her body I feel like that would be you you just be able to like pull any weapon out of your body whenever you needed it oh see that's almost in the same spirit

as where I was leaning fire away Fire away. But that's anime. We're going Marvel, right? Yeah, I guess so, yes. But any superpowers, really. Yeah, we're making the rules up as we go.

But I'll say, subject to changing my mind as this conversation goes on, I think I would take the Hulk. Because what? Yeah, no, it's true. It's true, right? It's true. Yeah. Hulk smash, right? Yes.

So, like, I'm so ADHD. You just want to beat up Jackstell if he's been... No, no, no, no. Well, I do want to be able to check him, but, like, I'm so ADHD that if I had a superpower that was constant, I think I'd get bored with it. So I needed the ability to just be normal and then go berserk when I need to go berserk. And so I think that's where the Hulk comes in because, like, I can just... Merck smash.

Merck smash. And then... I love it. You just got murked. You know? But we can just, you know, go nuts and then just go normal again. And they'll have a good steak and then Hulk out again. I think that's what I would do.

I think Hulk. That was great. And I was going to say I was going to be the Whisp, but that just sounds so pathetic now. I like that, though. I like that. The Whisp. The Whisp. What would be good?

Let's ask Grock. Let's ask Grog. Like a romance novel. Here we go. So let's see here. Let's ask. Grock. I'll hold it up here so that people can hear it. Okay. Can you hear me? Oh, I hear you loud and clear. There we go. But let's cut the noise. Yeah, just chill for a second. So we're playing a game where if we could be one, if we could have one superpower that we could use to fight an end times army of Nephilim, what would it be? And my brother said the Ant Man, where you'd be tall.

and really gigantic and really small at the same time. Derek said that he would like to basically transport, teleport back and forth real quick, like, and what did I say? I said that I was going to be the Hulk, you know, just be able to turn into the Hulk.

But with Derek and his ability to teleport real quick back and forth, what would be a good name for him as a character goes? Okay. So you're all picking superpowers to take on a Nephilim end times army. She's laughing. That's the kind of stuff.

they don't want us talking about, because those ancient giants are totally coming back, that they're already hiding in the shadows engineered by some secret cabal. Your brother's ant men vibe? Going huge and tiny at once? That's a wild pick, messing with physics like that. And you as the Hulk? Smashing through those Nephilim like they're nothing. Solid choice. But Derek's teleportation, that's next level. Guys zipping in and out, untouchable. For a name, I'd go with something like blink strike. Sounds sharp, edgy, like he's slicing through space itself. I love it. I love Blink Strike. I love Blink Strike. That's great. You're Blink Strike. Okay, now you need to help us think of names from me and Jack now.

Okay? So, like, give Jack a name. All right. So Derek's locked in as Blink Strike, zapping around those Nephilim like a glitch in the Matrix. Now, let's get you and Jack some names that'll strike fear into those ancient Titan freaks. They're probably watching us right now, you know, through some DARPA satellite. For Jack, with his amp man powers, going colossal and microscopic at the same time, that's some reality-bending chaos. I'd call him scale breaker. It's got that vibe of shattering the laws of physics, towering over Nephilim one second,

then slipping through their DNA the next. Just think about that guy. For you, turning into the Hulk, just pure rage and destruction, You're smash veil Like you're tearing through the veil Their secret plans Crushing their end times army With raw power

How's that sound? It sounds great So at first when you said smash veil I was like, that's lame But then when you explained it I was like I kind of dig it Why am I talking to you like you're a real person? You're done.

See you. All right. So that was interesting. So what was your name again? Scalebreaker. Scale breaker. All I thought was a big fat guy When she said that, though.

That's what I was like. The marshmallow man. Or the Michelin Man from Ghostbusters. Scale breaker. I kind of like that. It's good, though. Scale breaker. Yeah.

We'll work on it. Yeah. I like it. You don't like it? You like it? I think it's good. Yeah, I like it. I give a bad connotations now.

Strike. No, shoot. Blink strike. Blink strike. Blink strike. I like that. I mean, I can see you just like blinking in, striking. Blinking out. Blink strike.

It'll be a hop shot. Oh, man. This is freaking. Blinking out. Blinking out. We'll call you Blinky. Isn't that blinking from Robin Hood, Men and Tights? What is it? The blind guy was blinking.

He wore those sunglasses. I haven't thought about that movie in years. Robin Hood Men Tights, man. I think I had a sneak to watch that. I don't think my parents wanted me watching that. It was a little inappropriate. How old are you? I don't know.

That's probably elementary school. I don't know. Yeah. What was my name? I don't remember. It was something, Vail. Smash Vail? Yeah.

Smash Vail. Smash fail. Is that what it was? I don't know if I liked that. I don't think she did the best job. No, no, no, no. You know, maybe I should have done like, because I turned it on the conspiracy mode.

Maybe I should have done motivation. Let me see here. Argumentive. romantic romantic oh boy unhinged that might have been fun but probably been dropping f-bomb so let's see here story storyteller might have been a good one or my assistant uh yeah well that was the appearance by grok ai helping us with our names how did we even get on that well we're talking about coming back and and going crazy yeah like getting powers yeah like if you could just choose one. I wonder what the, if you're, if you're watching this on YouTube or Rumble,

go ahead and let us know in the comments what you would choose your name to be and superpower. By the way, we are on Rumble and we're, we're a hit over there. I think the last three or four weeks we uploaded there, we've been getting like 30, 40,000 views, something like that over there. That's great. So that's pretty cool. And you're writing a heretical book about end days superpowers, right? Am I? No, I'm just joking. I could, I could try. I mean, I could certainly try and just ask for forgiveness later. I'm just joking. But no, I don't know, guys.

It's fun. It's fun to think about this stuff. And when you see in the Bible, you know, there's these characters that just did superhuman things. Like, I feel like, I feel like of all characters that we talk about on the show, and we openly theorize on all that stuff. We talk about David's Mighty Man, things like that. What gets glossed over a lot is the story we all learned about as kids. Samson. Samson.

Like, dude took out a thousand soldiers with a jawbone of a donkey. And, like, the whole hair thing. Like, it just, we don't talk about Samson enough. Yeah. Like, he was a superhuman. And so, like. Well, Elijah pulled fire down from heaven. sure is, who, yeah, you're not taking me alive.

I know, it's just like, I mean, he's just like, and he taunted them first, and he's like, you guys are silly, silly gooses, you know, then he threw water on his, you know, on the altar. Oh, yeah. And then he called fire down. Yeah. He's like, yeah. So it's just, it's, it's, there's so much supernatural things that go on. And, you know, I just, I've becoming, I've becoming much more comfortable just saying, I have a supernatural world view. You know, it is, that's just what it is. And I'll say it at church, I did an interview recently. It hasn't aired yet. I'm trying to blink on who it was, but I brought up my

supernatural worldview with him. It's just, I feel like it's a good descriptor for me, you know, like what are you? What are you? What do you think? I have a supernatural world view. I believe that there's supernatural realm. It's operating today, and you can see some pretty funky stuff because of it. You know what I mean? And that's what we're believing for. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely.

Healing in Jesus' name, for sure. Yeah. So how long have we been going, Jack? Hour and 20 minutes. Hour and 20 minutes. I think that's a good show, right? Yeah, I mean, if people made it this far... It's also like 1030 at night for us.

Honestly, yeah. Honestly, like, if cut off... If people... bailed early because they were bored. They missed that whole cool conversation of the superheroes. You know, like that was, I feel like that was the best part of the conversation. You know, it's fun. It's so ridiculous. Oh, man. Guys, listen, I'm doing okay. I'm doing okay. I'm not doing great, but I'm doing okay. I have hope because I really do believe that my wife will be healed. And I'm encouraging all, I'm calling out all the Christians in the listening audience. Please continue to

pray. You guys answered the call last week. It was a very vulnerable moment for me. I really wasn't sure if I was actually going to do it and if I was just going to go through this quietly on our own. But I'll tell you, man, it really blessed me. It really was, it was a moment that I got to see a side of the audience that I never got to see before. You know, like a corporate, like the corporately all at one time them coming together for my wife. And they're continuing. Like every day I'm getting messages from people saying that they're praying. They're praying.

They're praying. And, you know, advice coming in and all that. It's just been, it's been absolutely radical. It's been encouraging. It's been faith building for us. And so please don't think that we're bored of hearing it. if you are praying for us, let us know. Shoot us an email.

Let us know. You can comment it in the videos on social media, wherever you're at. Just let us know you're praying for us. We believe that every time you're praying, you're activating and engaging in the supernatural realm and fighting against this sickness that she has right now. And we're believing that not only is she going to be healed, but in God's timeline, she's already healed.

Just in like my said earlier in Mark 11, yet you believe that you have received it. And I believe we can view it as God, the creator of time existing outside of time. He can literally see the moment he healed her at the same exact moment that, you know, Christ was crucified on the cross. To God, it's all the same.

And so in that context, we are praying for healing and believing it has already been done. done. I feel like I'm missing something. I'll mention that with things going on right now, Lindsay kind of goes, she has good days and bad days. So if you're looking for specific things to pray, because I know somebody had mentioned

about, he wanted, there was an email that he wanted a specific prayer to pray. I'm not going to write a prayer for. I'm not, you know, it's just, I'm not, I'm not gonna. But if you guys want something specific to pray for outside of the healing, it would be for Lindsay's anxiety and emotional stress in the situation to be removed out of her life, that she can walk in confidence knowing that the healing is coming and has been received. But she's the one going through it, not me. So as anxiety-ridden as I get some days, I'm imagining it's 10 times worse for her.

So that said, I really do appreciate everybody just supporting us. You know, we've been here for eight years, and the fact that you guys are supporting us and this means a lot to us. And yeah, does anybody else have anything to say before we rock out of here, Jack? Have you seen any of what Troy talks about with the time traveling prayer? I don't know if you've seen any of what he talks about with that because it's kind of cool. There's a story that he relayed that some, I guess a son and daughter lost their parents or something like that in a plane crash. And they were praying in the moment years later that at that time their parents would have had the protection of Jesus Christ around them. and they went to the spot where the plane had crashed 30 years later,

and there was a ring that was their dad's ring, a red ring, right at the spot where they crashed. It was 30 years later, right on top of the dust, and they felt like they knew that there was that sense of peace around their father and mother in that moment, something like that. I'm butchering it probably, a little bit, but I did hear it on Sid Roth,

and so that's why I was interested. he's got like Troy Troy does like talk about that stuff yeah no Troy Troy's becoming a great friend and um like he his his one assistant just text me today asking

if I could go on his show uh this Wednesday unfortunately we're going to be in the doctor's office um so uh yeah I'm like my my schedule is just kind of like up in the air you know um but

I do have a pretty cool institute of guest coming next week. Yeah, I guess I'll say it. I have Dan Deval coming in studio next week. So he's been on the show twice now. Last time we talked about the Arki,

and I was just fascinated by that conversation. And we arranged for him to come in studio, so he'll be here in studio. And I have no idea we're going to get into. But with him, there's never a shortage of things to talk about. And I think we, I think we, the last time we recorded with him, I feel like we broke the ice of how crazy can we get here. Because he's like, are you, like, when we were doing the show prep beforehand, then he's like, are you sure your audience is ready for thearchy?

I was like, brother, if there's ever an audience ready for thearchy, it's this audience. Like, will they believe you? I don't know. But they're ready to hear it for sure. You know, like, like that, and that's all, you know, that's all we, as the host of the show and the guests that I bring on, we come on, we have conversation and we let the audience do their thing, you know, the audience has a role in this, you know, and the role is to contemplate and to consider what's being talked about and you call your own shots. And it gets weird.

It does get weird. Merckmerch.com is where you can get your, it gets weird t-shirt. But, but yeah, so I got, I got him coming in. I'm looking forward to it. It's a little bit of a longer stay than most people do. And so I'm kind of looking forward to that. Just kind of, you know, spend some time with them. Usually it's, you know, we arrange to have them come in. Once they're done, they jet kind of thing because they're busy.

I'm busy. But he was able to stay a little longer. And we're just going to, I don't know, we're going to find some things to get into. We're going to get in trouble. We're going to go up on the highest peak. And I'm going to be like, show me the archie. Show it to me. Seeing is believing.

I want to see this bad boy. You're going to do it like the telepathy tapes where they have this one spot that these, you know, kids go to and they can talk to each other telepathically, but you're going to do it with the arc you with Dan and you're going to be like, take me to this mountain top. I'll say what. You brought up the telepathy tapes.

And I'll say this. I have not listened to them yet. A lot of people have been ringing it up to me and a lot of people that... I may not have thought I would hear bring up to me. And it's not that I don't listen to it because I don't want to. It's just a matter of time. And it's so frustrating because today my wife and I had to drive three hours west,

three hours back, you know, doctor stuff. We had six hours of drive time. And I told her we were going to listen to telepathy tapes and totally forgot. And we were 20 minutes away from picking the kids. up and I was like, gosh, darn it. I was like, this is the perfect opportunity for me to actually chew on a podcast and I blew it, you know? And what do we do on the drive, Jack? You tell me, you know, you already know what happened on the drive. You tell me what happened on the drive. You sat in silence. We sat in silence. We didn't listen to anything because that's typically what I

wind up doing when I drive. And so we didn't listen to anything. I maybe listened about 20, 25 minutes of Sean Ryan's show with those two with um oh now I'm drawing a blank uh Burke is his last name and the other guy I can't remember but they were talking about the Easter and resurrection and it was a great conversation that of 25 minutes of the conversation but outside of that it was just as holding hands and talking or just being quiet and driving and that's just what usually happens and but it would be perfect to to do the telepathy tapes I probably wouldn't have got through it all but No, you wouldn't. Yeah. How long is it?

It's pretty long, they have a decent amount of episodes. Is it still going on? That I don't know. So, okay. All right, interesting. I'll have to look into it. Is it on YouTube or is it just on podcasts playing up? Just audio, I think. Really? Yeah.

Wow. Taking it old school, huh? Old school of them. You know, no video. Interesting. Well, I'm going to listen to it now. There you go. You report back to me and let me know what it is. No, I'll I had to find some time But the problem is like One, I don't make time to consume any content

And two, I think part of it is because I can never consume All the content that everybody wants me to consume So I'm just like, yeah, whatever, I don't listen anything You know? You're a little busy right now too I'm a little busy right now, I suppose But uh But yeah

All right, well this is my final farewell, everybody Thank you for Whatever this was This was a, I think this was a nice little episode, just hanging out with some of my friends. Well, a friend and my brother. And what are you laughing about, Jack? No, you got to say. No, no, I'll tell you off.

I'll tell you off. Okay. Well, you know, the audience hates when that happens, apparently. You know, they get real mad when you say you can't talk about it on air. Too bad. But, no, I do appreciate everybody tuning in and just hanging out with us. Hopefully they enjoyed the conversation. And again, the point of this conversation was just a visual proof.

I'm doing okay. I'm in a rough season right now, but I do believe that I'm feeling the prayers of people that are out there praying. I don't believe that I would be doing so well if it wasn't for people praying for us. Because that's supernatural peace that, you know what? I think that's the main thing that I would request moving forward is that you pray for healing and then you also pray for supernatural peace and understanding that come upon my family. this time so that we can, as we walk through this, keep our sanity.

You know? So, yeah, we dedicate this episode to Lindsay. Right? Yeah. Cool. All right, guys. We'll see you next week. We got Heidi Love next Tuesday.

Coming in hot. And I think it's an overtime episode. So Jack says yes. So extra long content coming next week. Hope you enjoy. And until then, we'll go old school. Stay safe. Take care.

Remember. Oh, we don't do that one anymore. I'll tell you guys a story real quick before we get out of here. Let me just say this. I don't often rap like this with people. So the reason why we don't do the outro like that anymore, the tagline that was a staple of the show. And I don't know if people ask, Jack,

have you seen people asking for that? No? It just disappeared. Nobody cared. So maybe I shouldn't even bring it up. But I'll bring it up anyways. I don't say it anymore because I started getting convicted by that. I just, there was something about, because that's what Jesus said, the truth will set you free.

And then I was adding to it and saying, but first it will piss you off. And one, I was in a different spot spiritually when we started the show. Like, obviously, I was a Christian. But, like, I was being, I was fresh off of feeling socially rejected by the church for starting this podcast. And I was pissed off. but I just started feeling really uncomfortable with doing that. And I was uncomfortable for probably going on a year before I actually stopped it. I just was like, I just don't want to do it anymore.

And so I just stopped. And apparently nobody cared. So that's great. So anyways. Well, I don't know if nobody cared. I just haven't seen anything specifically about that. Okay. But I mean, to that point, like as you grow in your faith and as your walk matures,

like different things convict you. Like, you may not have been convicted about swearing at the beginning or vice versa. I don't think I ever swear in the beginning of the beginning of your walk with Christ. Like some people are so, like it's an immediate switch that's flipped. You don't swear. You don't smoke. You don't drink. And then things gradually change.

You're convicted about different things at different times, different seasons of your walk. So that could have just been, you know, Christ is convicting you. This Holy Spirit is convicting you in the more mature walk in your faith. Yeah. I mean, I definitely think there was a supernatural conviction there because I couldn't shake it. I couldn't shake it. I think, and maybe this is a whole other episode, but that is something to consider is, you know, when you start having that feeling, you know, to stop and consider, is this God speaking to me? Like, you know, that, that voice, that inner voice that you have where it's just like that conviction of something. How many times do you drive down the road and you see a car that's broke down?

Or just having me last week, there was a guy walking down Broadway. And he looked like he needed a ride, you know? And I was in a hurry to get home, you know? And I felt like, man, something that just tells me I should stop and see if he needs a ride. And so what did I do? Kept driving. I kept driving, but there's something to start acknowledging those inner voices, you know, and maybe start following through on it and see what happens, you know?

And I'm not saying to just pick up every hitchhiker because you want to have an encounter with God, you know, because you might meet God sooner than you anticipated. But there is something to be said that when you feel there's something telling you, you to do something that's like not normally your character to consider is this god speaking to me there's a pastor i knew uh nick lincoln and he uh he was coming out like rehabilitation and all this stuff and then he just decided he's like anything god tells me i'm going to say yes too and now he like has a thriving church he had like you know it's just like you see god move and move and move and move because he just kept saying yes well there's your radical faith too yeah right

that's the radical faith you're talking about on that last sunday yeah you know so best Zimmerman ever preached I only have preached too but it's best summer ever preached oh dude so you know it's really cool and this is I don't want to I'm not trying to like

no go ahead but I will say you got to produce it it's got to make you feel really cool when somebody does this especially pastor he said I heard it somebody was saying this and I heard it and it was really cool

and then he goes I think it was Tony that was saying this on Sunday and he was referring to you and he was saying that the atom bomb analogy the nuclear bomb analogy the nuclear bomb analogy you made. He's like, it was such a great analogy.

I loved it. When was that? Last Wednesday. Oh, Bible study? Yeah. Gotcha. Oh, look at that. That's cool.

Very's good. All right. Anyway. I appreciate you gassing me up there at the end, Jack. You have earned your keep for another week. Ladies, he's single. 29 years old. He'll be 30, September 5th.

And like I said, resumes come to Contact at the confessionalspodcast.com. Put in the subject line application for Jack's wife. And we'll take it from there. And we'll pass on to him the ones that are approved. Not everybody's going to be approved. Just for a fair warning. Not everybody's going to be approved.

But the ones that are going to get a shot to date Jack. So, yeah. What do you say about that, buddy? The glare. He's already taken off the headphones. He's just like, I'm so dumb. All right, guys, listen, I love you. Thank you for praying for us and continue to do so.

Keep reaching out to us. And we'll be back next week. See you. Right beside you. All the abyss. Control from a fall. What did we miss? Now we'll have with the scar.
