Who is Jonathan Cahn and what is the “explosive mystery” that he reveals in his book The Return of the Gods? Though he suggests that you need to read the entire book to uncover the mystery because it can’t be pared down to a short description, I actually found it quite easy to summarize the mystery…and I’m not even going to make you listen to this whole episode to “reveal” it.
(Stop reading here if you like anticipation and want to keep the suspense of my reveal inside the episode!)
Cahn claims that the New Testament describes the demonic possession of civilization just as it describes individual demonic possession... and western civilization—America in particular—is now being “repossessed.” (dramatic music here)
The question now is, does he have a legitimate, scriptural case to make for this claim? Not gonna make you wait for that answer, either. No, he does does not, and you can listen to this episode to find out how he defends his claim and how his claim is not the same as the biblically-defended idea that God allotted the sons of God to be in charge of the nations.
Included in the episode and bonus material on my website are suggestions for further study for those who wish to learn more about the gods of the nations and the cultural context of the Bible.
