Entertaining Spirits Unaware

Jan Markell, Eric Barger, and Jill Martin Rische discuss the normalization of the occult today, even in the church. They target an issue of Christianity Today (magazine) where we are encouraged to reflect on monsters and other dark issues. We carry Eric Barger's excellent book, Entertaining Spirits Unaware: The End-Time Occult Invasion, found here. Jan and Eric then interview American Family Association President Tim Wildmon as to why his organization was called a hate group recently. How far will the secular world go to marginalize Christians and all we stand for? Very far. The Bible predicts it.

Bible Prophecy and the Occult part 5 - The Kingdom of the Occult

Jill Martin Rische is Eric's guest again this week as we focus again on the world of the occult from a biblical perspective. Jill is the daughter of the late Dr. Walter Martin, the 20th centuries greatest Christian apologist. She, and co-author Kurt Van Gorden, have taken Walter Martin's notes and teachings and have developed the most complete treatise ever compiled on the topic in their book, The Kingdom of the Occult.

In the first part of the interview, Eric and Jill warned against the inherent dangers of reading occult-oriented literature without first understanding the seductive and spiritually damaging nature of them. In today's episode, Jill and Eric discuss the spread and pervasive acceptance of occultism through the media and literature today. They also connect the Hindu worship tool of yoga with demonic power and detail the fact that Hindu yogis (teachers) decry the current western culture's yoga craze, in particular the notion that yoga can be joined to Christianity, as ignorant and naive.

Tune in for this informative conversation on Take A Stand! Radio.

She, and co-author Kurt Van Gorden, have taken Walter Martin's notes and teachings and have developed the most complete treatise ever compiled on the topic in their book, The Kingdom of the Occult.

In the first part of the interview, Eric and Jill warn against reading occult-oriented literature without first understanding the dangers inherent in them. They also caution that unless one is called by God to specifically research on or expose the occult, Christians should endeavor to learn about the occult from Christian sources instead of from demonically inspired writers and their works.
