Summary

Dr. Michael S. Heiser, a scholar-in-residence at Faithlife Corporation, presents 15 years of research on what the Bible really says about the unseen world of the supernatural unfiltered by tradition or by theological presuppositions. People shouldn't be protected from the Bible, Dr. Michael S. Heiser says, but theological systems often do just that, by explaining away difficult or troublesome passages of Scripture because their literal meaning doesn't fit into our tidy systems.

Who were the sons of God? Who were the Nephilim? Where do angels fit into the supernatural hierarchy? Why did God find it necessary to have the Israelites destroy the populations of entire cities man, woman, and child? What relation does Jesus bear to the rest of the supernatural world? Dr. Michael S. Heiser tackles these questions and many more in his books Supernatural and The Unseen Realm.

In both books, Dr. Michael S. Heiser shines a light on the supernatural world, not a new light, but rather the same light the original, ancient readers and writers of Scripture would have seen it in.

After these books, you won't be able to read the Bible in the same way again.

Supernatural, What the Bible Teaches About the Unseen World and Why It Matters presents this approach to reading and understanding scripture for the person in the pew. The Unseen Realm covers the same material but at a deeper, complex, and highly documented way, for pastors, the seminarian, or serious students of the Bible.

Restoring the Supernatural Narrative of The Bible

Have you ever wondered why genocide plays such an important role in the Old Testament?

Have you ever wondered why evil spirits are only mentioned in the New Testament once Jesus arrives on the scene?

Have you ever wondered why there are real giants mentioned in the Bible, and what they tried to achieve?

Have you ever had an overview of the entire Bible and our entire planet explained to you in a way that also explains the supernatural realm, and how Christians are called and empowered to deal and interact with it?

Have you ever wondered what the role and destiny of a follower of Jesus is after physical death in this life?

If you would like to know the answers to these and many more questions (that Church teachers would rather avoid answering), then i recommend you read/listen to this book. And if this book leaves you wanting more, you can then graduate onto Michael Heisers more in depth book, that expands on this world view in 'The Unseen Realm'.

What everyone should know!

I thank God that someone had the courage to
take a deep dive into this subject. I have never heard a sermon on this and so I have learnt this very late in life but will now share the knowledge where ever I can.
I highly encourage you to read this book, it will be life changing!

Unmissable content

Dr Heiser’s insight into the Supernatural worldview of the Bible has life changing implications. His understanding of the ancient Near Eastern traditions and second temple period has forced a complete re think about the purposes of God and my place in them. Thank you!

Strong influence of pagan philosophy

I had heard great things about this book and "The Unseen Realm" and was excited to start reading it. I also spent time investigating several of Heiser's Youtube videos and podcast episodes. However, I was shocked to learn that he teaches that we will finally "be divine" ... this is what the serpent tempted Eve with!! Heiser's work is heavily influenced by Pagan thought from ancient times. This is NOT a source of truth.

Wow! Every Christian needs to read this book

So loved listening to this book! It has shown me my real purpose and identity. And it has helped me to understand what the Bible story is truly all about. Including all the obscure verses that didn't really make sense to me before now. I encourage everyone to read this book as it will make Christianity and our purpose in God's plan so much clearer. I am so excited about the truths learnt here and my view of God's plan and my purpose has been reframed

Paradigm Shift

The Author is clear on his intention from the start; to reveal a lost perspective on the spiritual realm. This book delivers on that. It is both challenging and inspiring. Providing a new (rather original) outlook on our Christian identity and purpose.
