Bennis The Menace Pod

We couldn't be more excited for this episode! Astrophysicists Dr. Hugh Ross of Reasons To Believe is on pod and we finally have someone smart to ask all of our questions! We literally had 47 questions lined up for Dr. Ross but we barely got through 10 because the conversations were just too good! In this episode we had the opportunity to ask Dr. Ross about the multiverse, the Big Bang, Space, Creation, Fine Tuning and the other evidences for God. We're really hopeful that Dr. Ross will come back for a followup episode, or maybe he'll become a regular on the show! So if you have any questions or comments, drop them down below so we can show him our fans are interested in this type of content ;) Also, make sure and check out the links below to find more on Reasons to Believe, Dr. Ross and his other debate and interviews.

As a result of recent discoveries in #quantum #physics, many academics are toting the most recent theory, the #multiverse. But does the multiverse actually exist? Or is just the latest flavor of the day in intellectual circles? It's been said by some physicists, "there can only be one, the multiverse, or #God". So it seems modern advancement has come to a crossroads. All of reality can only have one means of genesis, a creator, or chance. And we're not just talking about any old regular chance. We’re talking about infinite dimensional chance. But does it have to be one or the other? Is it possible that modern theories by physicists regrading a multiverse just trying to understand and explain a biblical concept? In this episode, the Menaces have a little discussion where we try to understand how to with deal this latest scientific theory, but from a #Christian worldview. We're by no means experts on these topics, but they are relevant to us nevertheless. Although scientists like to pit the multiverse vs God, this might not be necessary. As we deduce, there might be a middle ground between science and religion, or at least the Christian perspective that is. Could it be that the God of the #Bible used is aware of the multiverse and even used it to create the reality we exist in? Several theologians throughout history have given their go at explaining the tension between the foreknowledge of God and the sovereignty of God. #calvinism and #arminianism are two well known theological systems, but have you ever heard of #molinism? Join us as we explore this complex topic together. Soli Deo Gloria.

I know I know... Visions... Pretty controversial even in the Christian community. But can they be definitively denied all together? Probably not. I am reposting this testimony of Pastor Daniel Branzai who pastors a Romanian Baptist church in Anaheim California. Back in 2021 pastor Daniel nearly died of Covid and he basically had an #nde or #neardeathexperience. In this video he shares the vision he had with his congregation. According to him God gave him this vision while he was passing in and out of consciousness and on his death bed. His doctors gave up on him and said he was going to die, but God had other plans, and now he shares what he saw and heard. In his vision he was shown the pre-flood world of #noah (the #antediluvian era or some might say the time of the #youngerdryas impact), the #TowerOfBabel, and #Sodom and Gomorrah. Although this wasn't the focus of the vision, Pastor Daniel also describes what he saw regarding the #theflood, #pyramid, #atlantis, #demons, #giants, #nephilim (also called #aliens today or #ancientaliens) #advancedtechnology. Interestingly enough, when pastor Daniel asks God why he showed him these 3 specific times in human history, he is told that all of those historic conditions which he was shown are now all repeating themselves to precisely. Like in the times of Noah there is a #demonic intrusion into our #dimension by "aliens" and #artificialintelligence. The genetic manipulation experiments which are altering creation itself. The desire to connect with the #interdimensional entities though our #technology like #cern and #quantumphysics opening #stargate and #portal into other dimensions, just like they were trying to do at the Tower Of Babel. And of course, the rampant depravity and obsession with sexuality which lead to the destruction of Sodom and #Gomorrah. These things are all happening again and pastor Danial was shown the dots connecting before our very eyes. Some #christians believe we may be entering a dark time in biblical #prophecy, a period known as at the #endtimes or #armageddon or the #endoftheword. A time where the #antichrist will amass global dominance and lead the world into absolute chaos and destruction. But nevertheless, and even in his #vission, pastor Daniel is reminded that God is truly sovereign over everything that has happened, is happening and will ever happen. Therefore, we are not to be afraid, but we worship our God with the whole heart and to be right with #Jesus. “Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear, And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬-‭12‬ ‭

Finally Bennis the #Alien made it into a video thumbnail graphic lol. In today's episode we dive pretty deep into the latest current event that's all over social media; the Las Vegas UFO event that was captured by a police body cam. Not only was it captured on the police cam, but minutes after the #UFO was seen flying overhead, there was a 911 call that came in and someone claimed there was a craft that crashed in their back yard and there were 2 #giant beings lurking around their property. It's a pretty wild story and it was even in the news. But on social media people are really going wild over this latest Alien encounter. Here at Bennis The Menace we know these beings are not some creatures from another planet. As #Christians we know they're actually #demons or #fallenangels, some speculated they might even be #Nephilim. Almost all the #ancientcivilization recorded engaging with such beings. The ancient #Egyptians, the #Mayans, the Native Americans, almost every major ancient culture has records of similar encounters. They weren't called Aliens back then. They became their gods and were worshiped by the ones they appeared to. It's likely that's exactly what will happen again when they appear in the modern era. But chances are it's what the Bible describes as the #EndTimes and there will be a demonic one world order that arises under the guise of an alien #galacticfederation union that will usher in the antichrist and the inevitable #secondcoming of #Jesus and the destruction of the world. Other than that, we also come up with a pretty cool idea for the show on the fly. We're praying about having Dennis take my camper van and travel around the country for a month while abiding by everything the Bible tells us to do as Christians. He will document what happens and we'll air it here on the show. What do you guys think? #LasVegasUFO #VegasUFO #VegasAlien #LasVegasAlien #LasVegas #anunnaki

Comment below if you agree or disagree with what we’re discussing. If you make some good points we'll let you call into the pod to discuss your points!   #endtimes, #armageddon, #endoftheworld, #rapture, #markofthebeast, #antichrist, #newjerusalem These aren’t just catch hashtags. They are also some pretty complex concepts that scholars and theologians have been discussing for millennia. It’s not just because there bored and don't have anything better to do, but rather depending on how you perceive certain passages of scripture it will drastically effect how you understand the terms above as well.   There are a few primary perspectives on the end times which dominate the landscape. They are Pre-Millennial, Post-Millennial and A-Millennial. The most popular at the moment is Pre-Millennialism, but Post-Millennialism is closing in quickly!   In this episode we discuss the various views of the end times with our buddy Kamron, who is a hybrid Post / A-Millennialist. We will be primarily reading though Mark 13 in the #Bible which is one of the primary passages dealing with end times eschatology and arguably the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem in AD 70.   This episode is broken down into 2 parts as it ran pretty long.
Enjoy!

We've got another fun one! In this episode we talk about a few #taboo topics both in the #christian community and also in the secular world. I always try and emphasize in our videos that we are not #bible teachers or pastors! We are just 2 buddies having conversations out loud and y'all are eavesdropping on our conversations. But that's ok. We don't mind. We speak loudly in public on purpose to stir up conversations with the people around us ;) Honestly, try it sometime. It really works lol. Dennis has been reading a book on #demon #possession and he raises the question "can a Christian be demon possessed." In my personal opinion I don't think Christians be demon possessed. I think we can be attacked and oppressed and even tried by #satan and demons, like Job, but I don't think there's a single example in the Bible where someone who was put their #faith in #Jesus and received the #HolySpirit was full blown indwelt and possessed by a demon. But there are dozens of examples where people who were possessed had the demon exercised and then they came to put their faith in Jesus. What do you guys think about this question? I've been doing some thinking over the past month or so, and I wonder, what would the Bible look like if Jesus came to earth in our day and age rather than 2000 years ago? Would it still have the same exact words and parables and teachings? Or would Jesus and the apostles use different word and analogies and reference modern concepts and address #technology and contextualize the same eternal truths in a way that would most resonate with a modern audience? Is this arguably the role of a teaching pastor today? To make the old words make sense in a modern world? Finally, and of course this is where satan cuts our feed and starts giving us technical difficulties, Dennis couldn't help himself but bring up the question that he's been churning over, are we actually living on a #flatearth? I know I know, it's a crazy one to think about, but as Christians I think it's ok for us to question the mainstream narrative on everything! I'm not sold on the whole flat earth thing to be honest. The only biblical proof for a flat earth are phrases in scripture like "the 4 corners of the earth" or the word #firmament used in #Genesis when God creates the world. For me, I just don't see the upside in lying about the shape of the earth? Why push that narrative? And trust me, I don't trust a single thing that comes out of any government organization, which is exactly what #NASA is by the way, but I just see the endgame here. However, I will tell you, I have wondered, if the sun is jus this big ball of light in #space and it's what illuminates our planet so brightly day after day, why the heck is space so dark? If the sun is giving off light in all directions, wouldn't all of space within the same distance as the earth to the sun also be as illuminated as the earth is? If someone has an answer to this please leave it down in the comments. Enjoy!

Ask us questions or give us topics you want to hear about down in the comments! WE’RE BACK! Sorry for the delay boys and girls. We’ve both been out of town visiting friends and family and are just now getting back in the swing of things. You have all been sorely missed and we are both so happy to be back and talking into the wind again ;)I want to shout out all of our new subscribers! Welcome to BTMP! We’re so stoked for y’all to be here (I actually say y’all because I’m from Idaho, don’t judge me) and we hope this pod is a blessing to you in your life, or at the very least you just laugh along with two idiots trying to make sense of it all. I’ve got my spring hair going, and this is after my wife took about 2 inches off the bottom. But honestly, with the way things are going in culture, I’m going to keep it up from now on. I don’t want anyone thinking I’m drinking #budlight over here… We’ve good some good topics we discuss in this one. The #wef is I big issue. If you haven’t heard of them, they're basically the group that runs the whole wold. They have their leaders in positions of power alllll over the world! It’s crazy when you actually look into their organization. We also talk about the 1 world religion that the WEF is trying promoting called #Bahai. This religion tries to unify all the world religions under one #globalist #NWO roof by claiming all religions are equal and we’re all worshiping the same #god by different means. This couldn’t be further form the truth, as we #Christians know because #Jesus says, “I am the only way, the truth, and the light. No one comes to the Father but by me.” He really doesn’t leave a lot of room for any other option huh? We also get into what #heaven and our eternal resurrected bodies will be like. And a real fun one is talking about what the world would have looked like had Adam and Eve never sinned in the #GardenOfEden. It’s all good fun! Tag along as we get weird ;)

We've been gone for a few weeks, and now Dennis is out of town too. But in the meantime, my best friend was in town so enjoy this awkward episode as we bumble our way though his first podcast attempt ever :) Once he shakes the cob webs and we start acting a bit more natural, it picks up a bit and we actually start having a pretty good discussion. We reminisce for a while and go over how we met and some and how we became best friends, or if we really are bff's lol. Towards the end we discuss a couple interesting topics, mainly what and where is #heaven. Not too many #christians actually dig into this question too deeply. We're told that it is a place outside of this #dimension where we'll be in the presence of #God forever, but is that really what the #Bible says? Is that really where we'll spend #eternity as believers? That's kind of what most Christinas believe when they think about heaven. But is that really what the Bible says our eternal state will look like? When posed the question, my buddy freezes and you can see on his face that he never actually took a second to think through the biblical concept of heaven. This leads into a pretty interesting conversation about our resurrected body, or our eternal bodies. On this topic, you can see at one point that it finally clicks for me personally that I haven't really spent enough time thinking through the condition of our eternal body either. I've had two competing ideas in my head which I only now realized they don't add up to a cohesive understanding of our eternal state. Mainly, will our eternal bodies be like #Jesus #resurrection body where he could appear and disappear at will but still ate food and had a physical body that could be touched and probed? Or will our physical body be more like Adam and Eve's bodies which God created perfect and #sinless and their condition was arguably the state God intended humanity to exist eternally and it's the original creation order that God will reestablish in the new heavens new earth? It might be boring for some, but if you're a #nerd like me who likes being #introspective, hopefully these thought experiments will help you better develop your perspectives and #spirituality too! Let us know what you think in the comments!

Have you guys ever experienced anything like this? Comment below! I've never been big into #dreams or #visions or #prophecy or anything like that, my mom was, but I always thought she was exaggerating for the most part. However, for the past year or so, some weird stuffs been happening when I go to sleep. I've known of night terrors and sleep paralysis for a while, but I've never experienced anything of the sort, just the occasional #nightmare here and there. However these last few experiences have been something totally different. As a #christian we definitely believe in the #supernatural, in #angels and #demons, etc. We read in the bible over and over again that God speaks to people in dreams and visions so in my weird brain I theorize that the speeping brain might have some sort of conection to the other side, the #unseenrealm. In this long video I describe some of the dreams I've been having lately. It goes from dark and scary to outright unbelievable! I still can't believe that I watched an entire movie in one of my dreams lol. Does any of this mean anything? Maybe... Maybe not... But nevertheless, it's happening to me, and whether it's just something psychological or something #demonic, I would really appreciate yall's prayers! #Jesus is the king of the unseen realm, so our requests to him will be the only way we can effect that #dimension. Thank you!
