Behind The Curtain: Mysteries of the Past and Present with Josh and Ryan

In this episode, we speak with Pastor, speaker, and world traveler, Eli Bonilla Jr. We discuss hot topics such as race, culture, and how the gospel should influence those areas of life. We also dig into the strange and scary sides of ministry and the long history of Eli's family and their stories of gospel proclamation in South America. Buckle up! This is a fun one.

Join us as we discuss our bodies of flesh, specifically in Genesis 3 and the "skins" God gave to Adam and Eve. Also, we talk about our glorified bodies to come in the future resurrection of the dead. We hit a few rabbit trails on the way but bring it home to Jesus and His mission in the end!

We begin discussing Jesus' mission as the Messiah by looking into how he rescues mankind from the consequences of Adam and Eve's disobedience in Genesis 3. This episode focuses on the idea of "atonement" and how we are no longer separated from God because of Jesus' sacrifice.

Avery of GodLogic talks with us about Islam and shares his experience discussing the Bible with Muslims.

We address questions and comments sent in by our listeners, covering topics like aliens, ancient technology, and other gods. Could the technology that built ancient civilizations be within the grasp of modern humans? Are the Watchers still calling shots behind the scenes? The answers may shock you… Social: instagram.com/behindthecurtainpc twitter.com/BTCmysteries youtube.com/@BTCmysteries tiktok.c...

Author, explorer, and filmmaker Timothy Alberino joins the podcast to discuss humanity's "elder brother" and the influence that spiritual beings have had over the course of human history. He explains that many Christians might have a false perception of the spiritual world. Enjoy as we discuss man's position and purpose in God's creation. Guest Info: timothyalberino.com   you...

Derek Gilbert joins the show to shed some light on Nimrod, Babel, and the gods of the ancient nations. What does the Bible have to say about these so-called gods? What are modern Christians to think of these entities? In this episode, we examine several mythological figures and locations to see if there is any truth to their tales... or perhaps the myths are carefully crafted to deceive humanity....

After several topical discussions, we resume our journey through Genesis. In this episode, we survey chapters six through ten. We save “flood talk” for another day, but we introduce the audience to several interesting topics from these chapters. Were there omens that warned people about the coming flood? What did the Lord’s promise to Noah mean? What was wrong with Ham’s actions? All this and more...

Dr. Laura Sanger joins the show to explain the Nephilim Agenda and how the strategies of the elites and the globalist movement are nothing new. You’ll also hear how iniquity and epigenetics affect regions and family bloodlines.

In this episode, we approach the question, “Do the ‘elites’ have an agenda?” We look at Balenciaga’s recent “marketing blunder” and explore possible connections to the occult. …Yeah, we go there. We also look into the life of Aleister Crowley, the origins of certain occult practices, and even toss in a Harry Styles mention.

We are very excited to have our first guest on the show! Jed Payne of Church and Other Drugs podcast joins us today to share his testimony and discuss whether or not people can have spiritual experiences outside of the church... and whether such experiences are necessarily harmful or beneficial.  You can hear more from Jed on the Church and Other Drugs podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.  Soc...

We look into the origins of Halloween... or at least a few of the major ones. This one goes way back to a least the fifth century A.D. Is it simply about dressing in costumes and getting candy? What of the alleged spiritual activity that happens on October 31?

This particular topic is one that we’ve been excited to tackle for a long time: Dinosaurs. Where do they fit into the Biblical story? Are they part of the Lord’s day-six creation or do they have a darker origin?

This recording inadvertently turned into our first Question-and-Answer episode. We review some questions and thoughts from our past few episodes on Genesis 6 and the Book of Enoch. We give some of our opinions on the end times, the flood and the Nephilim.  Social: instagram.com/behindthecurtainpc   twitter.com/BTCmysteries youtube.com/@BTCmysteries   tiktok.com/@btcmysteries   behindthecurtainpc@g...

This week, we continue our discussion on the Book of Enoch. We discover what offenses the Watchers and the Nephilim committed and how humanity was affected. We also learn the consequences for their rebellion... spoiler alert: it involves a flood. We also speculate on where these spirits are now, and what is the final destination of angels and humans who disregard the Lord's plan.  Social: inst...

The second half of our discussion of the Book of Enoch and how it influenced New Covenant theology. We also get a short history lesson about the Ancient Near East's beliefs about the flood and certain divine beings that influenced humanity. How can we know for sure whether the Sons of God in Genesis 6 are humans or angels? And what was their goal, if there was one at all? Social: instagram.com...

Today, we look at Genesis 6 in its ancient context and we examine the infamous Book of Enoch. How should Enoch and other writings inform our understanding of the Messiah and other topics, like baptism? Buckle up for some extra-Biblical content in this lesson in ancient Near Eastern history, religion and literature.

In this episode, we break the ice on Genesis 6, the sons of God, and the Nephilim. A mere eight verses - such a small portion of the Bible - may have one of the biggest secrets. Does Genesis 6 hold the key to explaining the existence of evil and corruption in the world? Could Jesus' mission to save humanity be connected to these events? To find out, we must examine Genesis 4 and 5 in their anc...

In this episode, we conclude our study of Genesis 3. We discuss the consequences the Lord gives to the serpent, the woman and the man... along with several other miscellaneous topics. We read between the lines a little in order to speculate what this scene at the tree looked like and how it might have played out.

This week, we continue our analysis of Genesis 3. We take time to break down the conversation between the serpent and the woman. We also look at possible interpretations of the name of the "bad" tree. Why would Adam and Eve eat the forbidden fruit? What did they expect to happen?

We officially start our review of the fall of mankind in Genesis with an analysis of who is possibly the most notorious character in the Bible. Was the deceiver in Genesis 3 just a snake or something more? What should we infer about the serpent from the tale in Genesis 3? The answers to these questions might be more interesting than you think. Social: ⁠instagram.com/behindthecurtainpc⁠   ⁠twitter....

Time to go back to the beginning. In order to build the picture of Eden, we have to analyze Genesis 1 and 2 and ask a few important questions. What or who is "the Word of the Lord"? what was the scene in Eden? What role was humanity meant to play? It is important to build this picture in our minds as we approach Genesis 3, commonly called "the fall of man." Social: ⁠instagram.c...

Picking up where we left off in the previous episode, you'll hear some familiar passages today, but possibly in a different light. If you know what you're reading, the Old Testament paints a color picture of an active, spiritual world. Mentions of wild animals, arrows, and pestilence can not be taken at face value. And what about the "sons of God?" Let's see what is really go...
