God has commanded us FREELY YE HAVE RECEIVED FREELY YE SHAL GIVE. Thank you Jesus for sending your son Dr Michael Heiser in the nick of time when this world is about to fall apart and completely shredded. This down to earth man taught tirelessly, disciples young men to continue the ministry. We are learning to use the mind's greatest potential to dig deeper into your Holy word for in it we find ETERNAL LIFE. O GOD, most Holy and Eternal Father. We want to experience the joy you bestowed upon ENOCH. Thank God. Preserve our life for little longer to spread this life giving Holy fire. In the name of our most beloved Lord and Saviour Jesus
Is he the one that opens the book and looks into it? Rev 5. If not, he is only Ezekiel 34, unable to communicate the whole truth he does not know (which has been sealed).
You are so right. I've never heard this kind of in-depth teaching in churches and why I now have such a low tolerance for sitting in churches and hearing sermons...there is zero depth. Thank you Father for the gift of Dr Hiesers teachings and thank you Mom for direction me to him.
The lake of fire is the final destruction of all things physical. The incorrigible wicked or unrepentant will be cast there. The rebellious spirits cast there. The heaves and earth are converted to pristine and permanent structure. God's throne and HQ is established on the new earth and His people dwell with Him into eternity.
Eternal Death is not annihilation….it is forever agony/gnashing of teeth/brimstone and fire/separation from God/torture from demons/etc…. The Lake of Fire is the final destination of those who reject Christ. This is a state of complete separation from God, never-ending and inescapable. The lake of fire will be a place of perpetual suffering and misery.
The wages of sin is death. Not eternal anguish. Satan destiny is ambiguous. Can God destroy him? Yes, but does He? Revelation 20:10 has some ambiguity in, some added text. The beast and false prophet were cast is a better rendering.
@@deb-kenjohnson9497some people don't understand what the second death is. Which is what Christ suffered. Hell is meant to be eternal punishment for sinners/sin so by their logic Jesus went to Hell and is still there as he took that punishment. Eternal is eternal not 3 days. Immortality is a gift to the obedient not the wicked.
@@alexpitts7722 this is why it’s so important to recognize that Jesus the Christ was both fully God and fully man. He must be fully man in order to be our representative. It was man who sinned, it must be man to pay the price of that sin, by experiencing the essence of Hell. But He had to be fully God because only one who is fully divine and therefore having infinite value could pay an infinite price in a limited/finite amount of time. That is why Jesus is not “still in Hell.” He took an infinite punishment upon Himself, which He was able to do because His infinite nature was able to do so, in the three hours that darkness reigned as He hung on the cross. That’s why He said “it is finished” before giving up His spirit. Because the price had been paid in full. And only an infinite sacrifice could pay that infinite price.
God doesn't cast the devil into the lake of fire until he is done using him to tempt people. That's why he turns him loose again out of the bottomless pit to tempt those who haven't been. God cannot be tempted nor can He tempt any man. To get rid of sin people and angles are sorted out, those who choose sin and those who choose God, (Jesus to mankind.) The second death is death not life in agony. Can you imagine God as the proprietor of a torture chamber that lasts forever? He is a loving God, He is not like the devil. Evil is destroyed forever.
@poplap9241 Dr Michael Heiser was very a down to earth servant of God. He obeyed c God FREELY YOU RECEIVED FREELY YE SHALL GIVE. We are commanded to do just that. This is why he disciples many young men upon whom he threw the mantle. They are continuing his c ministry AMEN Jesus
23 From new moon to new moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me, declares the LORD. 24 “And they shall go out and look on the dead bodies of the men who have rebelled against me. For their worm shall not die, their fire shall not be quenched, and they shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.” Isaiah 66:
It’s great to hear the valuable information in Enoch II , but it surely does not sound like the same voice that speaks out of the Canonized “Old Testament”
22 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried, 23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side. 24 And he called out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’ Luke 16:
@@bertgoat That’s a poor arguement. Nowhere does a parable have to exclude names. Can those in heaven talk to those in hell? No. So why are they talking here?
I thank God for these recordings of Dr. Heiser. It would be good if there was a body of what I'll call "Heiserite Scholars" out there seeing how Michael has finished his work on earth because I have questions. Mainly, are we all reading the accounts of the enemy(enemies) incorrectly? Am I the only one who sees 2 enemies? The serpent in Genesis was cast to the earth at the time man was cast from the garden, the dragon is cast from heaven at the time Jesus rejoined the Father (rev 12). The serpent wanted "man" to becomes his own god. The "devil" seeks to be worshipped as a god (Matt 4:9). The spirit of Babel is the same as in the garden, make a name for ourselves and in Revelation 17 & 18. But the adversary in Job is still in heaven and is there to accuse man and prove him not worthy. It fits with there being 2 cherubim on the Ark of the Covenant shielding God's presence from man and the cherubim placed to the east of Eden to shield it from man. But the main thing on this thought is in Revelation 17 and 18. This woman is in control of the chaos system, the beast. The dragon is in the abyss at the time. When the dragon ascends the 10 kings burn this "Babylon" with fire. I have come to see the serpent from the garden as Lucifer/Ishtar/the goddess who wants man to be his own god, and the Satan as the devil/dragon/ adversary who attempts to subvert man's worship to himself.
Was that not in reference to cain whom he was saying the pharisees were descended from. Cain who was The serpent's own seed and was a murderer FROM THE BEGINNING
Who would the devil have murdered before their were human beings? Nobody was mortal before Adam sinned. The devil convinced Cain to murder Abel at the beginning.
Perhaps, but humanity was not corrupt from the beginning. The bible opens with the liar & murderer corrupting God's second family, humankind...two realms colliding, and God proclaiming the eternal condemnation of one, and the personal redemption of the other.
I don't think there is enough recognition that "darkness was over the face/surface of the deep". If, as John says, "God is light and there is no darkness in him", then creation was made outside of God - which is why God had to come forth, "Let there be light". I say come forth because Paul tells us that the light shines out of the darkness, not into the darkness. So what is this darkness, and what is it doing there at the selvedge of creation? Is it in a struggle with the Spirit who "was over the face/surface of the waters"?
"See that your names are not Blotted out (unrecognizble) from the Lambs book of life" A Visionary heard his offical name being called from a diatance , when he found himself before one of the Two Morning stars , handing a book to him asking to look for his name in it ,, he did find his name in it, at the same time witnesses a lake, silvery in color, dead still death itself, Gnosticism/Protestantism/Judaism rather Talmudism Refuted This is how one was placed before the God Allmighty A Visionary in spirit was instructed by the Holy Spirit to kneel with both the hands straight down at the sides, palms open & facing forward, head lifted up, when he sees a DARK & FRIGHTENING CLOUD, above, and from his mouth utters The Lords Prayer, as Jesus taught, No any other words Thats all Note, before the presence of the Allmighty God even the hands are not raised Refer to the Posture of the humble Our Lady of Grace,
I also get the sense from scripture that Hades/Tartarus is not the lake of fire. These are holding places for souls until the final judgement. Therefore, Lazerus and the rich man only proves that's where souls are now. Not the eternal destination. Otherwise, who would the rich man be warning back on earth? The lake of fire is after the 2nd resurrection. Everyone will be standing on the earth before the throne for the final judgement.
What mandate? Who's 'they'? Lucifer led the rebellion. I think common sense dictates he'd be the first. Exercise it. Seven is the sign of completion, such their collective fate is sealed. No hope. But God waits for us because He is our Loving Father, in Whom is no shadow of turning. Hallelujah.
The people in the right hand of God were working with God and he approved… Therefore, the people on the left-hand of God were the ones who tried to do it on their own like Lucifer thought they could be smarter and better than God.
The right hand of God is the light that constructs a man rightly. That light is the image of God, Christ, the Word. The left hand of God is the darkness (light that is not the image of God) that destructs a man into corruption. You choose. "I am the Lord that does these things." Isaiah 45:7. Nobody has chosen wisely: {5:6} Therefore have we erred from the way of truth, and the light of righteousness hath not shined unto us, and the sun of righteousness rose not upon us. {5:7} We wearied ourselves in the way of wickedness and destruction: yea, we have gone through deserts, where there lay no way: but as for the way of the Lord, we have not known it.
15 And it shall come to pass that when all men shall have passed from this first death unto life, insomuch as they have become immortal, they must appear before the judgment-seat of the Holy One of Israel; and then cometh the judgment, and then must they be judged according to the holy judgment of God. 16 And assuredly, as the Lord liveth, for the Lord God hath spoken it, and it is his eternal word, which cannot pass away, that they who are righteous shall be righteous still, and they who are filthy shall be filthy still; wherefore, they who are filthy are the devil and his angels; and they shall go away into everlasting fire, prepared for them; and their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone, whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever and has no end. 17 O the greatness and the justice of our God! For he executeth all his words, and they have gone forth out of his mouth, and his law must be fulfilled. 18 But, behold, the righteous, the saints of the Holy One of Israel, they who have believed in the Holy One of Israel, they who have endured the crosses of the world, and despised the shame of it, they shall inherit the kingdom of God, which was prepared for them from the foundation of the world, and their joy shall be full forever. 19 O the greatness of the mercy of our God, the Holy One of Israel! For he delivereth his saints from that awful monster the devil, and death, and hell, and that lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment. 2 Nephi 9
Malachi 3:2 But who can endure the day of his coming?Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner's fire or a launderer's soap. Proverbs 17:3 The crucible is for silver and the furnace for gold, and the Lord tests the heart. 1Corinthians 3:15 if ANY man's work be burned up, he shall suffer loss yet be saved as through fire. Mathew 25:46 and these shall go away into age-abiding correction and the righteous into age-abiding life. Rotherham’s Emphasized Bible. Hebrews 9:27 For it is appointed for man to die ONCE and then face judgment.
The flames of Hell are deep Blue. Hell seems rather dark, and full of mad suffering souls. Sulfur burns Blue. Interesting since flaming Sulfur Balls rained down on several cities. Imagine blue glowing Eyeballs raining down on the cities with bright red flames all around. "I am jealous and Vengeful God." Take that as warning of what you worship.
The lake of fire is massive levels of chronic inflammation within corrupted flesh. Misunderstood darkness on the flesh is the cause. Misunderstood light on the flesh is the cure, and the cause of righteousness reaped. Psalm 97:11 nasb.
Jude 1:14 5 other quotes from Enoch in the NT. Enoch found in Qumram scrolls. My answer to your question does have plenty of detractors, although existence in the qumram Scrolls is not disputed.
Enoch 1 is the only useful one for informing intertestamental lore/theology, because it's the only one that's intertestamental. The rest are riding Enoch 1's coat tails and we're written, apparently, by gnostic heretics.
@@cryptixdaemon7236 just Enoch 1. Everything after that was written much later. If you just look up Enoch book 1 there's only 1 Enoch book 1, but I'm sure lots of different published versions, because no one owns the copyright. You could probably get a basic version for free on kindle. Better resources designed for scholarly research tend to be more expensive.
Revelation 20 explains the Lake O fire very well. You can see the fate of the sinners, the Dragon the Beast and the False Prophet in verse 9 "fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them". That is the lake of fire so much fire comes down it creates a lake of fire just like Sodom. Then Christ will create a new heaven and a new earth while we are in the city of God. Then we will inherit the new earth. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
I got a vision of the lake of fire. There was this portal up high and many were being cartwheeled out of it into the lake. I heard them yell and scream as they were falling all the way down. I also heard JESUS say, this is the place for the devil and his demons but you too can end up here by your own actions.
We are eternal beings . God spoke eternity into us when He Created. Him being eternal and everywhere and Holy . His eternal attributes are what bless and punish forever. Thats how i see it. The lost will be forever repelled by a Holy God who made them forever. We are either one with God or rebelled by God , forever.
The fire prepared for the devil and his angels mentioned by Jesus in Matt. 25 does not come from the pseudo-book of Enoch, but from Isaiah 30:33. "For Topheth has long been ready, Indeed, it has been prepared for the king. He has made it deep and large, A pyre of fire with plenty of wood; The breath of the LORD, like a torrent of brimstone, sets it afire. (NASB). Jesus interpreted this verse in such a way that the "king" mentioned is Satan. "Tophet" (which literally means a place of burning - cf. the ESV) was located in the place called "The Valley of the son of Hinnom" (Jer. 7:31-34), where the Jews sacrificed their children in fire to the pagan gods. This was latter shortened when transliterated into Greek as "ge-henna," and is the Greek word Jesus used throughout the Gospels which is wrongly translated "hell" in our English translations. There is no question that when Jesus spoke of the fire of ge-henna (cf. Mk. 9:43-48) that He had exactly the same place in mind as in Matt. 25 which refers to the eternal or permanent fire. There is no need to look elsewhere for a precedent for Jesus' statement, such as the Book of Enoch which teaches many fables that are clearly false. When Jesus used this term "ge-henna" in Mk. 9, he quoted directly from Isa. 66:24 which reads: "Then they shall go forth and look on the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence to all mankind." (NASB). Dr. Heiser likes to dabble in the spooky realm, and here attempts to give validity to the Book of Enoch which contains Jewish interpretations and fables, not divine revelation.
So, was it original with the author of Enoch, or are there other antecedents. Volcanic caldera are hellish, but where in the near east would someone from one of those cultures seen such.
On 10.31.18 God moved the clouds and formed intricate scenes and pictures. He showed a plane with 2 bears heads on the side ( one looking at me. The other looking west) The plane crashed between Mt. St. Helens and Rainier. There was a mushroom cloud explosion. Lava started flowing. Then both exploded and formed The Lake of Fire. He showed Satan dropped in to the Lake. Later He showed someone in a boat leaving a bomb in the water ( by the Statue of Liberty) He showed a wave coming up and over the statue. Los Angeles will have a “Reef Slip” and be swallowed up. America is running out of time. If you don’t know Jesus. Please Repent. He died so you don’t have to go to hell. Eternity is Forever. Our Sesame Street brains can’t fathom forever. Jesus will be here soon! I can’t wait to see His face. He is my First Love. I hope I see you in heaven. Be well. Suzie Lesser
Suzie. If you are "prophesying". Be specific. I appreciate you had clear details but if what you are saying doesn't come to pass, then it's false. Are you just going to leave an open ended vision? Might this happen tomorrow? A hundred years? Will repenting stop it?
@ All I know is what was shown. I told it exactly as it happened. There were no qualifiers, or time frames. Just what was coming. Americans are unrepentant. Cause they don’t think…They don’t believe. God is gonna show us. He’s still in control. America will be Humbled. You know what’s coming. Jesus is the only way to heaven. You have time to repent. He died so you don’t have to go to hell. Use what time you have left, wisely. Be well. I hope I see you in heaven. Suzie Lesser.
I believe Enoch and other books Referred to in The Word, were Left out Purposely. Translators flipped out and were going to Delete the Song of Solomon, because of the So Called Promiscuous Wording. 🤦♀️Bad Enough they thoroughly screwed up the rest of the whole Translations.
From our perspective of earth, we look up to eternal Heaven, the Holy Kingdom, or, we look down to eternal damnation devoid of the Holy spirit, completely without God in Hell fire. We have to choose which one we will decide to spend eternity in. The classic devil on one shoulder whispering dark "rewards" and boundless perverse sex, murder, theft, lies, etc. On the other shoulder an angel encouraging us to remain clean, refrain from darkness, choose only rightious, holy things. Here. we find ourselves in between the two ~ Heaven or Hell. Jack ~'()'~
I am always hesitant to subscribe to the notion that the Apostles were "clearly" influenced by other writers, particularly when it comes to apocryphal or pseudepigraphal writings (Jude notwithstanding). For example, many like to characterize some of John's prophecies recorded in Revelation as him in effect leveraging or being influenced by other prophetic writings such as Daniel's. If we truly believe "all scripture is God breathed" per Paul's declaration to Timothy, then why isn't the logical explanation that the Holy Spirit was the source of his prophetic writings? Wouldn't the "Comforter/Helper" be consistent in revealing that which was to come, irrespective of the writer or the time period in which he was writing? Further, John, like Peter, spent roughly three years with Jesus. John tells us in his gospel that there were "many more things that Jesus did..." Is it not reasonable to presume there were also many more things the Lord said that aren't recorded in John's and the other Apostles' writings? My point is Dr. Heiser's repeated assertions that, "clearly," the book of Enoch served as a source of inspiration for some of Peter's writings while admittedly not an uncommon assertion remains conjecture. Might Peter have had knowledge of such writings? Perhaps. Did Peter leverage those writings to inform his own? Personally, I prefer to believe he was divinely inspired.
He makes the error if thinking the NT got thus from the book if enoch. He ignores the possibility that both the book of Enoch and NT get this from a common source, such as an oral source or unknown book. The OT names multiple books no longer available. Heiser displays a common assumption that the Bible derives from non canonical writings ignoring a common descent that branched off long before. Heiser is not a clear thinker, though he may seem like it to you. I was forced as a very young child to think very clearly on pain of being forcibly removed from my family by a communist Government.
so if there’s already been a war in heaven, if there was free will that caused pride and fall how can it be perfect? How can there be no sorrow no anger and grief?
Because Jesus, our Messiah has made propitiation for us and has become our High Priest and mediator. The old law has finally been fulfilled, "For He (God our Father) hath made him (Jesus) to be sin for us (taking our punishment upon himself) who knew no sin (Jesus is holy and a perfect sacrifice) that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." 2 Corinthians 5:21. There are passages that explain how the devil was thrown out of heaven, having led rebellion. Jesus said that he saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning, that is, Satan is powerful adversary who first hated God and now, we in His image and likeness, are essentially held hostage, some succumbing to Stockholm syndrome, essentially. Put your faith in God. This is the best thing you can do, not just for yourself, but, perhaps most significantly, for those you love and those that will be eternally grateful for your witness to the Truth. This is the answer to the problem of evil. Don't delay. Put your faith in God, heart and soul. 100%. Give it EVERYTHING because the devil wants to sift your soul and lay you and all yours to waste and vanity, stealing your inheritance and blinding the world to rape and kill it. God is here to restore us. Don't settle for worldly delusions. Get right with God, now. Amen.

Descriptions of Hell.. Gehenna. Hades. Furnace of fire. Lake of fire. Eternal torment. Self-exclusion from God. A place where the worm does not die, Dante's inferno.
Hades =/= gehenna. Conceptually the NT references to Hades are interchangeable with the Hebrew "Sheole". It's more if a place where souls wait for judgment. Gehenna is the valley of hinom where Israel killed their own children, the trash pit of human sacrifice God detested. This becomes a symbol of God's eternal retaliation against evil. He ironically appropriates this imagery to describe his final judgment against the wicked. The imagery in its final form is The Lake of Fire in Revelation. It's not a waiting room but the second death from which there is no return. We know it's not Hades (hell) because in Revelation it says that death and hell will be thrown INTO the lake of fire. The one eventually subsumes the other in an eschatologically ultimate sense.
@ravissary79 but the streets of the New Jerusalem are lined with the tree of life whose leaves are for the nations. Those nations that have been cast into the Lake of Fire. The gates of the New Jerusalem will never be shut and the Spirit and Bride say Come. 'Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the Sin of the World.' 'Father forgive them they know not what they do.' There is hope for All because His Mercy endures forever.
All you need to understand hell and the Lake of Fire and the difference between the two and when they will be relevant in the future, is simply the Holy Spirit and a King James Bible other than that you're just saying a whole bunch of big words trying to look smart .

It is literal. Hebrews talks about the doctrine of eternal damnation. Hell is temporary. The lake of fire is permanent. My brother rejected salvation, as did my paternal grandmother so I would love to be wrong but the Word of God is our final authority. Jesus told us to accept Him to avoid eternal judgement.

OK, but Heiser and so many others don't seem to get that Jesus redeems all things including hell. The mystery of the divine will has been revealed yet ppl still prefer fables.
@@dragoninwinter The Pharisees were pretty sure of their understanding of scripture as well. A load of hypocritical crap. Judge others worthy of damnation, would you? Don't be a son of hell. Everyone will be salted with fire, and salt is good.
What? The Book of Enoch is irrelevant, Enoch is not the writer of the “Book of Enoch.” This is an uninspired, apocryphal book written many centuries later, probably sometime during the second and first centuries B.C.E.
Simple Question. How do you determine something belongs in the Bible? Certainly anyone with any honest research understands that Enoch, Jubilees, and 2nd Edras and a few other Books like Tobit are Torah. If you believe the stupid Essences story about Qumran, you are in error.

I bet Michael knows so many cool things now far beyond what we have imagined. I miss him but I'm so happy he's with Jesus now.
Dr. M. Heiser was amazing and is dearly missed ❤
Thank you for uploading; love the book of Enoch
I'm so glad you're posting these, thank you.
God has commanded us FREELY YE HAVE RECEIVED FREELY YE SHAL GIVE.
Thank you
Jesus for sending your son Dr Michael Heiser in the nick of time when this world is about to fall apart and completely shredded.
This down to earth man taught tirelessly, disciples young men to continue the ministry. We are learning to use the mind's greatest potential to dig deeper into your Holy word for in it we find ETERNAL LIFE.
O GOD, most Holy and Eternal Father. We want to experience the joy you bestowed upon ENOCH.
Thank God. Preserve our life for little longer to spread this life giving Holy fire. In the name of our most beloved Lord and Saviour Jesus
We all miss him ❤
Thank you ✝️
You dont get this most valuable teaching even in best mainline christian churches.
He very much loved and appreciated
Is he the one that opens the book and looks into it? Rev 5. If not, he is only Ezekiel 34, unable to communicate the whole truth he does not know (which has been sealed).
You are so right. I've never heard this kind of in-depth teaching in churches and why I now have such a low tolerance for sitting in churches and hearing sermons...there is zero depth. Thank you Father for the gift of Dr Hiesers teachings and thank you Mom for direction me to him.
No one was as effective at teaching the bible like Mike, it's no wonder he was taken from the world so early.
So glad he recordesohis talks!!
The first book of Enoch was found with the dead sea scrolls. Scripture has quoted IEnoch. Definitely historical and read.
The lake of fire is the final destruction of all things physical. The incorrigible wicked or unrepentant will be cast there. The rebellious spirits cast there. The heaves and earth are converted to pristine and permanent structure. God's throne and HQ is established on the new earth and His people dwell with Him into eternity.
Eternal Death is not annihilation….it is forever agony/gnashing of teeth/brimstone and fire/separation from God/torture from demons/etc….
The Lake of Fire is the final destination of those who reject Christ. This is a state of complete separation from God, never-ending and inescapable.
The lake of fire will be a place of perpetual suffering and misery.
The wages of sin is death. Not eternal anguish. Satan destiny is ambiguous. Can God destroy him? Yes, but does He? Revelation 20:10 has some ambiguity in, some added text. The beast and false prophet were cast is a better rendering.
@@deb-kenjohnson9497some people don't understand what the second death is. Which is what Christ suffered. Hell is meant to be eternal punishment for sinners/sin so by their logic Jesus went to Hell and is still there as he took that punishment. Eternal is eternal not 3 days. Immortality is a gift to the obedient not the wicked.
@@alexpitts7722 this is why it’s so important to recognize that Jesus the Christ was both fully God and fully man. He must be fully man in order to be our representative. It was man who sinned, it must be man to pay the price of that sin, by experiencing the essence of Hell. But He had to be fully God because only one who is fully divine and therefore having infinite value could pay an infinite price in a limited/finite amount of time. That is why Jesus is not “still in Hell.” He took an infinite punishment upon Himself, which He was able to do because His infinite nature was able to do so, in the three hours that darkness reigned as He hung on the cross. That’s why He said “it is finished” before giving up His spirit. Because the price had been paid in full. And only an infinite sacrifice could pay that infinite price.
God doesn't cast the devil into the lake of fire until he is done using him to tempt people. That's why he turns him loose again out of the bottomless pit to tempt those who haven't been. God cannot be tempted nor can He tempt any man. To get rid of sin people and angles are sorted out, those who choose sin and those who choose God, (Jesus to mankind.) The second death is death not life in agony. Can you imagine God as the proprietor of a torture chamber that lasts forever? He is a loving God, He is not like the devil. Evil is destroyed forever.
Oh how I wish he was still with us!
@poplap9241 Dr Michael Heiser was very a down to earth servant of God. He obeyed c God FREELY YOU RECEIVED FREELY YE SHALL GIVE. We are commanded to do just that. This is why he disciples many young men upon whom he threw the mantle. They are continuing his c ministry AMEN Jesus
Hell is the local lockup, The Lake of Fire is the Penitentiary.
23 From new moon to new moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me, declares the LORD.
24 “And they shall go out and look on the dead bodies of the men who have rebelled against me. For their worm shall not die, their fire shall not be quenched,
and they shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.”
Isaiah 66:
Mike was our modern day Paul ❤
It’s great to hear the valuable information in Enoch II , but it surely does not sound like the same voice that speaks out of the Canonized “Old Testament”
You don’t even need Enoch . The last chapter of Isaiah clearly speaks to the lake of fire.
As well as Hebrews, The Gospels and Jude among others
Enoch was written long before Isaiah!
Man this is good
22 The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried,
23 and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.
24 And he called out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’
Luke 16:
The poor man in the rich man is the parable a parable is a metaphor representing a concept
@@victoriawest6127 do they give specific names in a parable? to whit Lazarus
@@bertgoat
That’s a poor arguement. Nowhere does a parable have to exclude names. Can those in heaven talk to those in hell? No. So why are they talking here?
@@bertgoatParables which mention names; Numbers 23:7 has 5 names in one verse. Ezek.23:1-4; Matt.13:37; Mk.4:15
Enoch gets honorable mention in Genisis and is directly quotes in Jude: "Did not Enoch speak of these..."
Agree 100% he was taken waaay to early
God has good reasons.
Hell is not the lake of fire
Did you even listen to this episode????
True God can make u what u want not me
I thank God for these recordings of Dr. Heiser. It would be good if there was a body of what I'll call "Heiserite Scholars" out there seeing how Michael has finished his work on earth because I have questions. Mainly, are we all reading the accounts of the enemy(enemies) incorrectly? Am I the only one who sees 2 enemies? The serpent in Genesis was cast to the earth at the time man was cast from the garden, the dragon is cast from heaven at the time Jesus rejoined the Father (rev 12). The serpent wanted "man" to becomes his own god. The "devil" seeks to be worshipped as a god (Matt 4:9). The spirit of Babel is the same as in the garden, make a name for ourselves and in Revelation 17 & 18. But the adversary in Job is still in heaven and is there to accuse man and prove him not worthy. It fits with there being 2 cherubim on the Ark of the Covenant shielding God's presence from man and the cherubim placed to the east of Eden to shield it from man. But the main thing on this thought is in Revelation 17 and 18. This woman is in control of the chaos system, the beast. The dragon is in the abyss at the time. When the dragon ascends the 10 kings burn this "Babylon" with fire. I have come to see the serpent from the garden as Lucifer/Ishtar/the goddess who wants man to be his own god, and the Satan as the devil/dragon/ adversary who attempts to subvert man's worship to himself.
Does anyone know what reference he is talking about when he says the OT talks about spirits of the Nephalim in Sheol?
Good info; however, it does say that the devil was a murderer from the beginning, which does open a door to something happening prior to the garden.
Yes, I also believe there was a rebellion before the garden. I personally don’t agree with Mike on that point.
Was that not in reference to cain whom he was saying the pharisees were descended from. Cain who was The serpent's own seed and was a murderer FROM THE BEGINNING
Who would the devil have murdered before their were human beings? Nobody was mortal before Adam sinned.
The devil convinced Cain to murder Abel at the beginning.
Perhaps, but humanity was not corrupt from the beginning. The bible opens with the liar & murderer corrupting God's second family, humankind...two realms colliding, and God proclaiming the eternal condemnation of one, and the personal redemption of the other.
I don't think there is enough recognition that "darkness was over the face/surface of the deep". If, as John says, "God is light and there is no darkness in him", then creation was made outside of God - which is why God had to come forth, "Let there be light". I say come forth because Paul tells us that the light shines out of the darkness, not into the darkness.
So what is this darkness, and what is it doing there at the selvedge of creation? Is it in a struggle with the Spirit who "was over the face/surface of the waters"?
The fires of Hell are blue, as in sulfuric fire which burns a bluish hue. Like the judgement of Sodom and Gomorrah wherein the impure were cleansed.
"See that your names are not Blotted out (unrecognizble) from the Lambs book of life"
A Visionary heard his offical name being called from a diatance , when he found himself before one of the Two Morning stars , handing a book to him asking to look for his name in it ,, he did find his name in it, at the same time witnesses a lake, silvery in color, dead still death itself,
Gnosticism/Protestantism/Judaism rather Talmudism Refuted
This is how one was placed before the God Allmighty
A Visionary in spirit was instructed by the Holy Spirit to kneel with both the hands straight down at the sides, palms open & facing forward, head lifted up, when he sees a DARK & FRIGHTENING CLOUD, above, and from his mouth utters The Lords Prayer, as Jesus taught, No any other words Thats all
Note, before the presence of the Allmighty God even the hands are not raised
Refer to the Posture of the humble Our Lady of Grace,
I also get the sense from scripture that Hades/Tartarus is not the lake of fire. These are holding places for souls until the final judgement. Therefore, Lazerus and the rich man only proves that's where souls are now. Not the eternal destination. Otherwise, who would the rich man be warning back on earth? The lake of fire is after the 2nd resurrection. Everyone will be standing on the earth before the throne for the final judgement.
I’d like to know more about the 7 fiery mountains. Is that why they’ve created the 7 mountain mandate? Was lucifer #8?
🙏🏻❤️
Are you thinking Revelation 17-18?
What mandate? Who's 'they'? Lucifer led the rebellion. I think common sense dictates he'd be the first. Exercise it. Seven is the sign of completion, such their collective fate is sealed. No hope. But God waits for us because He is our Loving Father, in Whom is no shadow of turning. Hallelujah.
Unrelated concepts.
The people in the right hand of God were working with God and he approved… Therefore, the people on the left-hand of God were the ones who tried to do it on their own like Lucifer thought they could be smarter and better than God.
The right hand of God is the light that constructs a man rightly. That light is the image of God, Christ, the Word. The left hand of God is the darkness (light that is not the image of God) that destructs a man into corruption. You choose. "I am the Lord that does these things." Isaiah 45:7.
Nobody has chosen wisely:
{5:6} Therefore have we erred from the way of truth, and the light of righteousness hath not shined unto us, and the sun of righteousness rose not upon us.
{5:7} We wearied ourselves in the way of wickedness and destruction: yea, we have gone through deserts, where there lay no way: but as for the way of the Lord, we have not known it.
15 And it shall come to pass that when all men shall have passed from this first death unto life, insomuch as they have become immortal, they must appear before the judgment-seat of the Holy One of Israel; and then cometh the judgment, and then must they be judged according to the holy judgment of God.
16 And assuredly, as the Lord liveth, for the Lord God hath spoken it, and it is his eternal word, which cannot pass away, that they who are righteous shall be righteous still, and they who are filthy shall be filthy still; wherefore, they who are filthy are the devil and his angels; and they shall go away into everlasting fire, prepared for them; and their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone, whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever and has no end.
17 O the greatness and the justice of our God! For he executeth all his words, and they have gone forth out of his mouth, and his law must be fulfilled.
18 But, behold, the righteous, the saints of the Holy One of Israel, they who have believed in the Holy One of Israel, they who have endured the crosses of the world, and despised the shame of it, they shall inherit the kingdom of God, which was prepared for them from the foundation of the world, and their joy shall be full forever.
19 O the greatness of the mercy of our God, the Holy One of Israel! For he delivereth his saints from that awful monster the devil, and death, and hell, and that lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment. 2 Nephi 9
If all the fallen angels and demons are thrown into the lake of fire, then who inflicts the eternal torture?
He states a passage in the book of Enoch as angels of unrelenting judgement

Where can I find the books of Enoch mentioned?
Jude 1:14
5 other quotes from Enoch in the NT.
Enoch found in Qumram scrolls.
My answer to your question does have plenty of detractors, although existence in the qumram Scrolls is not disputed.
Enoch 1 is the only useful one for informing intertestamental lore/theology, because it's the only one that's intertestamental.
The rest are riding Enoch 1's coat tails and we're written, apparently, by gnostic heretics.
I think jude refers to it
Thanks, also what what are the real books to read, apparently there's some fake ones out there.
@@cryptixdaemon7236 just Enoch 1. Everything after that was written much later.
If you just look up Enoch book 1 there's only 1 Enoch book 1, but I'm sure lots of different published versions, because no one owns the copyright.
You could probably get a basic version for free on kindle. Better resources designed for scholarly research tend to be more expensive.

Revelation 20 explains the Lake O fire very well. You can see the fate of the sinners, the Dragon the Beast and the False Prophet in verse 9 "fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them". That is the lake of fire so much fire comes down it creates a lake of fire just like Sodom. Then Christ will create a new heaven and a new earth while we are in the city of God. Then we will inherit the new earth.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
I got a vision of the lake of fire. There was this portal up high and many were being cartwheeled out of it into the lake. I heard them yell and scream as they were falling all the way down. I also heard JESUS say, this is the place for the devil and his demons but you too can end up here by your own actions.
We are eternal beings . God spoke eternity into us when He Created. Him being eternal and everywhere and Holy . His eternal attributes are what bless and punish forever. Thats how i see it. The lost will be forever repelled by a Holy God who made them forever. We are either one with God or rebelled by God , forever.
Dont be decieved by any
The fire prepared for the devil and his angels mentioned by Jesus in Matt. 25 does not come from the pseudo-book of Enoch, but from Isaiah 30:33. "For Topheth has long been ready, Indeed, it has been prepared for the king. He has made it deep and large, A pyre of fire with plenty of wood; The breath of the LORD, like a torrent of brimstone, sets it afire. (NASB). Jesus interpreted this verse in such a way that the "king" mentioned is Satan. "Tophet" (which literally means a place of burning - cf. the ESV) was located in the place called "The Valley of the son of Hinnom" (Jer. 7:31-34), where the Jews sacrificed their children in fire to the pagan gods. This was latter shortened when transliterated into Greek as "ge-henna," and is the Greek word Jesus used throughout the Gospels which is wrongly translated "hell" in our English translations. There is no question that when Jesus spoke of the fire of ge-henna (cf. Mk. 9:43-48) that He had exactly the same place in mind as in Matt. 25 which refers to the eternal or permanent fire. There is no need to look elsewhere for a precedent for Jesus' statement, such as the Book of Enoch which teaches many fables that are clearly false. When Jesus used this term "ge-henna" in Mk. 9, he quoted directly from Isa. 66:24 which reads: "Then they shall go forth and look on the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence to all mankind." (NASB). Dr. Heiser likes to dabble in the spooky realm, and here attempts to give validity to the Book of Enoch which contains Jewish interpretations and fables, not divine revelation.
So, was it original with the author of Enoch, or are there other antecedents. Volcanic caldera are hellish, but where in the near east would someone from one of those cultures seen such.

I believe Enoch and other books Referred to in The Word, were Left out Purposely. Translators flipped out and were going to Delete the Song of Solomon, because of the So Called Promiscuous Wording. 🤦♀️Bad Enough they thoroughly screwed up the rest of the whole Translations.
From our perspective of earth, we look up to eternal Heaven, the Holy Kingdom, or, we look down to eternal damnation devoid of the Holy spirit, completely without God in Hell fire.
We have to choose which one we will decide to spend eternity in.

Again... Again... Again... Again...
Teaching in Genesis 1 that creation descended into chaos is HORRIBLY ignorant
I like Michael, and he was brilliant. However, I disagree with what is presented here when It comes to Hebrew biblical scripture.
"A Divine Revelation of Hell" by Mary K Baxter. Read it.
I am always hesitant to subscribe to the notion that the Apostles were "clearly" influenced by other writers, particularly when it comes to apocryphal or pseudepigraphal writings (Jude notwithstanding). For example, many like to characterize some of John's prophecies recorded in Revelation as him in effect leveraging or being influenced by other prophetic writings such as Daniel's. If we truly believe "all scripture is God breathed" per Paul's declaration to Timothy, then why isn't the logical explanation that the Holy Spirit was the source of his prophetic writings? Wouldn't the "Comforter/Helper" be consistent in revealing that which was to come, irrespective of the writer or the time period in which he was writing?
Further, John, like Peter, spent roughly three years with Jesus. John tells us in his gospel that there were "many more things that Jesus did..." Is it not reasonable to presume there were also many more things the Lord said that aren't recorded in John's and the other Apostles' writings?
My point is Dr. Heiser's repeated assertions that, "clearly," the book of Enoch served as a source of inspiration for some of Peter's writings while admittedly not an uncommon assertion remains conjecture. Might Peter have had knowledge of such writings? Perhaps. Did Peter leverage those writings to inform his own? Personally, I prefer to believe he was divinely inspired.
Why do you believe the two are mutually exclusive?
He makes the error if thinking the NT got thus from the book if enoch. He ignores the possibility that both the book of Enoch and NT get this from a common source, such as an oral source or unknown book. The OT names multiple books no longer available.
Heiser displays a common assumption that the Bible derives from non canonical writings ignoring a common descent that branched off long before.
Heiser is not a clear thinker, though he may seem like it to you. I was forced as a very young child to think very clearly on pain of being forcibly removed from my family by a communist Government.
And whos decieved and follow antichrist
so if there’s already been a war in heaven, if there was free will that caused pride and fall how can it be perfect? How can there be no sorrow no anger and grief?
Because Jesus, our Messiah has made propitiation for us and has become our High Priest and mediator. The old law has finally been fulfilled, "For He (God our Father) hath made him (Jesus) to be sin for us (taking our punishment upon himself) who knew no sin (Jesus is holy and a perfect sacrifice) that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." 2 Corinthians 5:21. There are passages that explain how the devil was thrown out of heaven, having led rebellion. Jesus said that he saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning, that is, Satan is powerful adversary who first hated God and now, we in His image and likeness, are essentially held hostage, some succumbing to Stockholm syndrome, essentially. Put your faith in God. This is the best thing you can do, not just for yourself, but, perhaps most significantly, for those you love and those that will be eternally grateful for your witness to the Truth. This is the answer to the problem of evil. Don't delay. Put your faith in God, heart and soul. 100%. Give it EVERYTHING because the devil wants to sift your soul and lay you and all yours to waste and vanity, stealing your inheritance and blinding the world to rape and kill it. God is here to restore us. Don't settle for worldly delusions. Get right with God, now. Amen.
Realize that ypur description is of the new heavens and earth. Also, they're thrown out because of rebellion.

Descriptions of Hell..
Gehenna.
Hades.
Furnace of fire.
Lake of fire.
Eternal torment.
Self-exclusion from God.
A place where the worm does not die,
Dante's inferno.
Dantes inferno is false teaching and not inspired
Hades =/= gehenna.
Conceptually the NT references to Hades are interchangeable with the Hebrew "Sheole". It's more if a place where souls wait for judgment.
Gehenna is the valley of hinom where Israel killed their own children, the trash pit of human sacrifice God detested.
This becomes a symbol of God's eternal retaliation against evil. He ironically appropriates this imagery to describe his final judgment against the wicked.
The imagery in its final form is The Lake of Fire in Revelation. It's not a waiting room but the second death from which there is no return.
We know it's not Hades (hell) because in Revelation it says that death and hell will be thrown INTO the lake of fire.
The one eventually subsumes the other in an eschatologically ultimate sense.

All you need to understand hell and the Lake of Fire and the difference between the two and when they will be relevant in the future, is simply the Holy Spirit and a King James Bible other than that you're just saying a whole bunch of big words trying to look smart .

Daniel 3:22 Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the *FURNACE* exceeding hot, the *FLAMES* of the *FIRE* slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

25 He answered and said, Lo, *I SEE FOUR MEN LOOSE,* walking in the midst of the *FIRE*, and they have no hurt; and the form of *THE FOURTH IS LIKE THE SON OF GOD*
Daniel 3:26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the *BURNING FIERY FURNACE* and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the *FIRE.*
Daniel 3:28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God
It is literal. Hebrews talks about the doctrine of eternal damnation.
Hell is temporary.
The lake of fire is permanent.
My brother rejected salvation, as did my paternal grandmother so I would love to be wrong but the Word of God is our final authority.
Jesus told us to accept Him to avoid eternal judgement.

That book is written to the Hebrews. That is why it is called Hebrews.
You're taking something that was not written to you and applying it onto others and that is pure evil!

OK, but Heiser and so many others don't seem to get that Jesus redeems all things including hell. The mystery of the divine will has been revealed yet ppl still prefer fables.
I wish that were true, but the Bible is pretty clear on the matter.
@@dragoninwinterthank you
@@dragoninwinter The Pharisees were pretty sure of their understanding of scripture as well. A load of hypocritical crap. Judge others worthy of damnation, would you? Don't be a son of hell. Everyone will be salted with fire, and salt is good.
The lake of fire is a very small body of water called intelligence…it will do you know good in the end
I'm glad you make sense. Not.

What? The Book of Enoch is irrelevant, Enoch is not the writer of the “Book of Enoch.” This is an uninspired, apocryphal book written many centuries later, probably sometime during the second and first centuries B.C.E.
So was the New Testiment
@@deano6178 You're an expert on the Bible, the apostles wrote the New Testament over a hundred years before they were born! Smart!
Simple Question. How do you determine something belongs in the Bible? Certainly anyone with any honest research understands that Enoch, Jubilees, and 2nd Edras and a few other Books like Tobit are Torah. If you believe the stupid Essences story about Qumran, you are in error.
