Description: Can a church host a psychic medium for Halloween? A Halloween medium event in St. Maries, Idaho drew backlash from local churches, and Ed Mabrie of Faith By Reason joins TopLobsta and David Lee Corbo "The Raven" live to break down what the Bible says about mediums, whether Christian families should trick-or-treat, and Paul on meat sacrificed to idols. Plus: a pastor botches yet another rapture date. Streamed live Wednesday, October 28, 2026.Then Ed answers the backlash from his last appearance: does God know the future? Ed walks through Daniel 7 and the little horn, Jeremiah 1:5, Moses changing God's mind in Exodus, Jeremiah 19:5 ("neither came it into my mind"), and Jonah and Nineveh, and argues that free will is real because God responds to our choices. Also: Calvinism and who gets to interpret Scripture, God, time and gravity, and the case of the counterfeit NDS T-shirt.CHAPTERS0:00 Can a Church Host a Psychic Medium for Halloween?4:23 St. Maries, Idaho: The Event Goes On Despite Backlash9:02 Trick-or-Treating: Stumbling Block or Harmless Fun?13:41 Paul, Meat Sacrificed to Idols & Halloween19:58 Should Christian Families Celebrate Halloween?24:00 No Obligation to Celebrate: Halloween vs. Christmas31:11 Pastor Botches Another Rapture Date33:37 Faith By Reason: Ed's Courses, Books & Sleep Meditations36:52 Truth or Con Tickets37:58 Ed Answers the Backlash: Does God Know the Future?40:01 What God Predicts Perfectly: Daniel 7 & the Little Horn43:22 Free Will & the Ice Cream Example45:15 "I Want You to Be Uncomfortable"54:05 God's GPS: Jeremiah 1:5 & Your Maximum Potential57:48 When God Says "Now I Know"1:00:50 Exodus: Moses Changes God's Mind1:03:50 The Math Grade Analogy1:09:36 God, Time & Gravity1:14:41 Chat: "Prophecies Aren't Predictions, They're Promises"1:18:36 The Counterfeit NDS T-Shirt1:21:03 Jeremiah 19:5: "Neither Came It Into My Mind"1:24:39 Jonah, Nineveh & God Relenting1:28:29 Calvinism & Who Gets to Interpret Scripture1:32:42 "You're Going to Hell and Have No Choice"?1:39:32 Jeremiah: Foreknown, Not Forced1:49:57 Skilled vs. Unskilled Debaters1:53:26 Where to Find Ed & Faith By Reason1:54:40 Top 10 Conspiracies Trailer & Sign-OffGuest links: https://faithbyreason.netEarly access and ad-free: https://www.patreon.com/Nephil...Merch: https://www.toplobsta.comNephilim Death Squad: a conspiracy show with a Christian lens.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nephilim-death-squad--6389018/support.Hear it first, hear it ad-free, and watch us live: join the Death Squad on Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/NephilimDeathSquadMembers also get 10–30% off merch.If this episode made you laugh, think, or pray for us, leave a 5-star rating and a review.
