Episode 29 | Spiritual Warfare Part 2: Angels, Demons, & the Satan

Today’s episode is all about the spiritual beings (the Elohim) we encounter in the Bible – angels, demons, and the Satan (the Adversary). Spiritual beings are somewhat of a mystery to us, but Scripture is very clear about some aspects of spiritual beings. In this episode, we will dive into their characteristics, abilities, and their position with their Creator. We will tie it all together at the end by discussing the commonalities between all created beings, spiritual or otherwise.

Corrections & Notes:

  • At 10:08, Liv attributes the authorship of Hebrews to the Apostle Paul – this is not known for certain, but many people do ascribe to the idea that Paul wrote it due to its similarity in themes and style to Paul’s New Testament epistles.
  • Allison says around 24:50 that two Cherubim were sent to guard the entrance to Eden, but we don’t know how many there were because the Bible does not say specifically. Genesis 3:24 says, “He drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life” (ESV).
  • The text read by Liv about Michael the Archangel from 27:15 to 28:08 is a direct quotation from the Got Questions article referenced above. Our apologies for not citing this verbally as well as here in the show notes.
