Welcome back to the podcast. Today Bryan and Scott are continuing the series on the apostle Paul and the supernatural world. This is part three of our conversation, where we explore Paul’s understanding of rebellious spiritual beings and their influence on humanity.

In the world of the New Testament, Paul didn’t see evil as merely abstract or symbolic. He spoke about real spiritual powers—beings that oppose God’s purposes and work to distort human allegiance. Today we’ll focus especially on the figure known as the Satan, along with the wider network of rebellious spiritual beings that operate behind the scenes of human history.

What did Paul believe about these powers? How do they influence individuals, cultures, and systems? And how does Paul’s theology of Christ reshape the way believers understand and confront this unseen realm?

So join us as we continue our journey into Paul’s worldview—pulling back the veil to explore how the apostle understood the conflict between God’s kingdom and the rebellious powers that seek the worship of mankind.
