Dive into the electrifying third installment of "The Cosmic War of the Sons of God" on the Reformed Fringe podcast, where we unravel the mysterious "sons of God" in the Old Testament. Doug will explore the shocking truth that these are not human figures but supernatural beings—angels tasked with ruling nations, yet some fell into rebellion, sparking a cosmic battle that reverberates through history. From Genesis 6’s enigmatic Nephilim to the divine council in Psalm 82, discover how these texts were altered by ancient rabbis to obscure Jesus’ divinity, revealing Satan’s schemes to undermine the Gospel. Listen to uncover why this war matters for your faith, how it connects to Jesus as the true Son of God, and why understanding this epic struggle will transform your view of Scripture and the spiritual realm. Tune in for a mind-bending journey that equips you to stand firm in the cosmic conflict!

What truly sets God apart from the gods? How does that connect to the age-old debate about free will and predestination?
