Any person who claims Dr. Heiser taught polytheism is illiterate or has an agenda. I respect your defense of Mike's teaching. You have always been one of my favorite presenters for your positive representation of Dr. Heiser's message.

It's baffling trying to understand why some people are so dead-set on misunderstanding Heiser. It's like their brains turn off the instant they hear a particular phrase or keyword -- or even when they _don't_ hear a particular phrase or keyword that's the lynchpin of their understanding of a topic or passage. Apparently some "scholars" are just like the average person: taught what (but not how) to think. They think they're protecting others from heresy, when really they're kicking against the go(a)ds.

You notice how they waited until he passed before they started their criticisms? I think that speaks for itself. In my opinion these critics are being intentionally deceitful and I think they are shallow. Heiser never taught that gods came down and mated with women. He taught that angels came down and did that. He didn't classify angels separately from gods. He said that angels are called gods and also sons of God.

@brittybee6615 People disagreed with him before, but some people are really dogpiling him and completely misunderstanding/misrepresenting his views when he's no longer here to answer them directly (even though he already made his views pretty clear to anyone who genuinely wants to understand them). It just feels very slimy.

Dr. Heiser was just dealing with the common cipher "Elohim" and the way it is used in the scriptures. H is unequivocal about YHWH being a singular being.

The telltale sign of an ideologue is inaccuracy for convenience. Sifting through the arguments of "theologians" can be a disappointing waste of time. It can be like watching a jigsaw puzzle solver who works with scissors and glue.

I've noticed that Heiser is guilty of that whenever he contrasts opposing views with his. He'll do his little jazz hands gesture and mockingly strawman a concept that he obviously hasn't examined very thoroughly.

@truthbebold4009 I've seen him do that with the UFO stuff, but not so much on serious scholarly topics. From what I've seen, he usually tried to give a fair shot to anyone with a reasonable argument.

It really shows the bravery and confidence of these people to wait until the late Dr. Heiser passes to "Expose" him. Even if he did or didn't get a thing or couple things wrong... Everyone in the world knows he was an Amazing, Good, and Godly man that just wanted to help and teach people. And it's shameful and disrespectful of these people, who've barely done a fraction of God's work compared to Dr H, to choose a public setting for it. Just like the Pharisees... I guess they didn't think the biblical instruction of going to your brother in the faith in private means anything. So I rebuke them, workers of iniquity! And may God grant that they publicly reap the same harvest of division and strife that they sow. So be it, Amen.

1:30:30 - 1:31:41 I've just laugh-dead here; and at the same time his companion, "Major Objector" i mean, repeatedly says 'oh, Heiser needs hermeneutics classes, uh, definitely needs, oh'. Like, what are you even doin' here guys..
@johncassidy30713 күн бұрын
Your point at 3:19:40 is killer-- It's definitely how this once-Catholic now-longtime-Protestant assesses Heiser's claim of revealing the Bible I claim as the basis of my faith.

Thank you again for reacting to these videos. Brother, I tried watching one of their videos and interacting with the Road Warrior. It is clear they are working from assumptions and presuppositions, and not the Biblical text. I am not a Hebrew or Greek scholar, but this is my take away after watching the first video.

By the way, in regard to Genesis 1:26, every single episode in the Bible when God creates, it’s a singular creator, God. There is only one creator, God, and this never changes even if others are involved. This can be seen on word study as well.

3:47:36 "We're nearly done... (thank God)..." 😂 I'm actually sympathetic to these guys. Grew up southern baptist, with no real knowledge of the Holy Spirit (who, biblically, provides our assurance of salvation). My substitute for His ministry was a compusion to ensure I had the "right" beliefs and to try my best to live accordingly. In that mindset, challenging my doctrine was synonymous with questioning my salvation. Theological debates will always interest me, but in that context they were not merely an honest search for truth and understanding -- they were (in effect) the test of whether I was right with God, and whether I'd go to heaven or hell. I see that same fearful compulsion to have the "right" theology in _a lot_ of would-be theologians (calvinists especially, which is why they're frequently the quickest to doubt others' salvation). Ironically, when you think your life literally depends on getting the answer 100% right, if cripples your ability to see things clearly. There's no freedom to question things honestly or openly when any misstep means potential damnation.

Heiser has repeatedly defended the Abrahamic God as a singular trinitarian type being. He uses the word "god" like many ancient scriptures do...defined as spiritual beings. Thus, little "g" gods and the big "G" God are spoken of. This much he made clear for decades.
@yeshua-on-wings5 күн бұрын
You might consider editing your comment to remove the word "powerful" seeing as Heiser's main point of distinction is that elohim is not about attributes.

When studying the great debate between the heretics in the church and the apostolic fathers that eventually formed the resulting branches of Christianity, you can see the constant error of attributing unintended meanings of words because of ambivalent language that is easily misunderstood across language and cultural barriers.. The Early Church developed nevertheless an orthodoxy that was able to survive by the convening of councils with open, face to face debates, prayer and reliance upon the Holy Spirit. These kinds of issues are very rarely resolved without fasting, prayer and love and agreeing to define the terms of language use. Heiser had an advantage of devoting most of his scholarship to interpreting semitic languages. That made him aware of the very carnal tendencies of mistranslation. Matthew 28:16-17; Acts 2:1

2:33:32 I just wanna give a very simple understanding of mine about why Paul take about hair covering was and is right: hair is an intensifier of woman scent spreading. End of story. Moreover that, women much more into artificial aroma stuff than men. More hair, therefore, means more chances of children being accidentally born. More science often means less sense. In Bible we just have completely eliminated sexual language without any important sense being lost, other example is in 1Cor 7:2-5, and who want it not being so.

Wonderful stuff. I am a fan of Michael Heiser. His views are closer to Mormonism. This is a paradigm shift and goes against the grain of traditional Christian thought but holds many truths nonetheless.
