00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:04.160
People are starting to notice. Lately, more and more folks
2
00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:08.400
are asking why the world feels tense right now, why
3
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:13.919
power structures feel brittle, and why truth feels dangerous again.
4
00:00:14.039 --> 00:00:18.239
Oddly enough, those same patterns show up at the beginning
5
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:23.519
of Matthew's gospel. Matthew opens his gospel with dreams that
6
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:28.719
issue commands, a star that behaves like it knows where
7
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.960
it's going, and a political leader who reacts like he's
8
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:37.359
just been tipped off about an incoming threat. That's intelligence activity.
9
00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:41.880
If Matthew were written today, this wouldn't be filed under religion.
10
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.719
It'd be filed under national security.

In the minds of the bet Welcome back to broadcasting seeds.
13
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:17.159
I'm Benett Tanton, and tonight we're stepping straight into a
14
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.760
story you think you know but probably haven't looked at
15
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:25.560
closely in a long time. Because this episode isn't about
16
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:29.840
a soft focused Nativity scene on a Christmas card version
17
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:34.439
of these events. This is about the supernatural birth of
18
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:38.680
Jesus in Matthew and why Matthew frames it less like
19
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.680
a feel good origin story and more like the opening
20
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:50.000
moments of a spiritual conflict. Before we go any further.
21
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.599
Quick house rules for keeping the show alive. If you
22
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:59.840
like what you hear, hit like, share the episode in,
23
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.680
leave a review. That's not algorithmic magic. That's how this
24
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:10.039
podcast grows. It helps this conversation reach people who are
25
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:14.840
already asking questions but don't quite have the language for
26
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:19.159
them yet. Okay, now here's the thing. People are starting
27
00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:23.319
to notice lately. More and more folks are asking why
28
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:29.039
the world feels tense right now, why power structures feel brittle,
29
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:34.680
and why truth feels dangerous again, And oddly enough, those
30
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:40.319
same patterns show up at the beginning of Matthew's Gospel.
31
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:45.599
This episode is part of a reoccurring segment's Sunday Spiritual
32
00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:50.560
sit Rep. We're already all the way through the Old
33
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:54.319
Testament at this point, but this is where we zoom
34
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:57.639
out and assess the terrain and ask a simple question,
35
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:02.159
what's really going on beneath the surface in this book
36
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:07.560
or the scripture. Matthew opens his Gospel with dreams that
37
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:13.120
issue commands, a star that behaves like it like it
38
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:16.719
knows where it's going, and a political leader who reacts
39
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.759
like he's just been tipped off about an incoming threat,
40
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:27.280
and that's not symbolism, that's intelligence activity. If Matthew were
41
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:31.879
written today, this wouldn't be filed under religion. It'd be
42
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:37.400
filed under national security. And lately people are rereading scripture
43
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:42.719
with fresh eyes, especially passages that deal with angels, signs,
44
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:49.360
and authority. And when you slow Matthew down, you realize
45
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:55.759
he's telling us something uncomfortable. Heaven doesn't always announce itself publicly.
46
00:03:56.319 --> 00:04:01.280
Sometimes it moves quietly and strategically, and when it does,
47
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:08.840
power notices immediately. This week, as conversations about spiritual warfare,
48
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:16.399
government overreach, and unseen influence keep popping up everywhere, Matthew
49
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:21.199
suddenly feels very current and not ancient, not distant, and
50
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:29.199
uncomfortably relevant. The first reaction to Jesus entering the world
51
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:34.160
wasn't worship, Frankly, it was fear. And tonight we're gonna
52
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:38.279
look at how the supernatural birth of Jesus in Matthew
53
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:43.160
sets the tone for everything that follows. Why dreams become
54
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:48.000
a battleground, and why the sky itself starts signaling, and
55
00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:53.439
why a king responds with violence instead of curiosity. And
56
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:57.560
one more thing. If you've got a friend who says
57
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:02.879
I'm spiritual, but I just don't trust institutions. Send them
58
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:08.920
this episode seriously, This one is for them. Also, if
59
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:14.879
you're a researcher, theologian, historian, or creator working in this
60
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:20.079
space and you're digging into the strange, the biblical, and
61
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:24.839
what we'll call the overlooked, I am always open to connecting.
62
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:31.680
Quiet conversations lead to better questions. All right, take a breath,
63
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:38.279
lock In. Let's start with the most overlooked detail of all.
64
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:48.800
Section one dreams as a battle space in the supernatural
65
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:54.399
Birth of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. All right,
66
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:58.079
let's slow this down and sit with something most people
67
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:01.920
rush past. If he doesn't open the story with a
68
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.920
miracle in the sky or a public declaration, he opens
69
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:12.600
it in a dream and not a symbolic abstract. What
70
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:19.600
does this mean? Dream a direct, authoritative intrusion, and that
71
00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:24.319
matters in the supernatural Birth of Jesus. In Matthew, the
72
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:29.079
first line of contact between heaven and humanity isn't a
73
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:35.759
crowd or a sermon. It's Joseph's mind while he's asleep.
74
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:43.920
That should immediately tell us something about how this conflict operates.
75
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:51.480
Joseph is exhausted, he's confused, probably replaying worst case scenarios
76
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:59.519
in his head. His life is about to fall apart, socially, legally,
77
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:05.399
and economically. And that's when the Angel shows up, not
78
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:11.800
to confront him, to command him. God doesn't wait until
79
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:17.920
Joseph has peace. He speaks while Joseph is dressed, vulnerable,
80
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:22.680
and he's unsure, and the Angel doesn't ask Joseph how
81
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:26.879
he feels. He tells him what's happening and what to
82
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:31.360
do next. Take Mary as your wife. Don't be afraid.
83
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:37.720
Name the child Jesus. This isn't therapy, it's intelligence, and
84
00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:44.879
Joseph doesn't argue. That pattern repeats itself throughout Matthew Chapter two.
85
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:51.759
Another dream, another warning, another relocation. Move now, don't go there,
86
00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:58.079
go somewhere else. Stay until you're told otherwise. This isn't
87
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:05.360
random divine red reassurance. This is tactical guidance. So here's
88
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:11.199
the uncomfortable part again. Scripture treats dreams as a legitimate
89
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:16.160
channel of communication, but modern culture treats them like mental
90
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:23.800
junk mail, sometimes something to just swipe away in the morning,
91
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:29.079
but Matthew doesn't. In the Supernatural Birth of Jesus, in Matthew,
92
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:34.960
dreams are not symbolic fluff. They are decision points that
93
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:41.279
change history. Without those dreams, Jesus doesn't survive childhood without
94
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:47.799
Joseph's obedience. The story ends before it even starts. Joseph
95
00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:54.759
ignores one damn dream. There is no gospel now, zoom
96
00:08:54.759 --> 00:09:02.759
out why dreams? Because dreams bypass social pressure. They bypass
97
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:11.159
public resistance, no crowds to convince, no institutions to negotiate with,
98
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:18.720
just one man, one message and a choice. Dreams are private,
99
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:24.159
and private spaces are harder to police. That's why this
100
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:29.200
matters right now. Lately, people are talking more openly about
101
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:36.159
dreams intuition in a warnings and gut checks, not in
102
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:39.759
a New Age way, in a why do I feel
103
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:45.440
like something's off? Way. Matthew tells us that instinct didn't
104
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:51.279
come out of nowhere. Dreams have always been a battlespace.
105
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:57.360
If Heaven uses dreams to warn, then dreams are never
106
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:03.360
neutral territory. Matthew doesn't need to explain spiritual warfare. He
107
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:10.559
just shows it. Heaven communicates quietly, danger approaches loudly, and
108
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:13.480
the people who survive are the ones willing to act
109
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:21.120
without applause. Joseph just never preaches, never fights, He never
110
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:26.440
performs a miracle. He listens and he moves. That's the
111
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:33.480
kind of obedience that doesn't trend online, but it changes timelines,
112
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:38.039
and that brings us to the next signal in this story.
113
00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:42.960
Because dreams weren't the only channel Heaven used, the sky
114
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:48.240
itself started behaving strangely. Hey, everybody just wanted to talk
115
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.320
about I've published a book and the title is the
116
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:56.960
War you didn't know you were in, Understanding and winning
117
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:00.639
the spiritual battle. Most people do not really lies that
118
00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:03.879
they're in a spiritual war. They just feel tired, heavy,
119
00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:09.159
stuck in patterns they can't explain, like something keeps pushing back.
120
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.200
Every time they try to grow, heal, or move closer
121
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:17.360
to God. We get told it is just stress or trauma,
122
00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:22.159
or even bad habits, all these things. But scripture tells
123
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:25.759
a deeper story. For our struggle is not against flesh
124
00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:29.320
and blood, and that's from Ephesian six twelve. That's why
125
00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:32.879
I wrote this book, not to scare anyone, not to
126
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:37.200
by any means go chase demons, but to explain in simple,
127
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:43.639
grounded language, how spiritual warfare actually works, How lies becomes strongholds,
128
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:47.679
and how truth becomes actual freedom. And if you have
129
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.240
ever felt like something invisible, what's holding you back? This
130
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:54.679
book was written for you. I'll put the links in
131
00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:58.399
the show notes. No hype, just a resource. Thanks for listening.
132
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:09.279
Section two, The star that didn't act like a star. Now,
133
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:13.919
let's lift our eyes from the dream world and look up.
134
00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:19.879
Because in the Supernatural Birth of Jesus and Matthew, the
135
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:24.120
next signal doesn't come from inside the mind. It comes
136
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:29.000
from the sky. And whatever this star was, Matthew is
137
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:33.480
very intentional about how he describes it. The thing does
138
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:38.759
not behave like a normal astronomical object. Stars don't guide
139
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:44.279
people to specific locations. They don't disappear and reappear on command,
140
00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:51.279
and they sure don't go before travelers, before travelers and
141
00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:57.720
then stop over a precise destination. Right. But Matthew says
142
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:04.279
this one, it did that exactly, and that's not poetry,
143
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:09.480
that's behavior. And Matthew doesn't tell us what the star was.
144
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:13.600
He tells us what it did, and what it did
145
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:22.240
was guide intentionally and selectively. Earshere it gets uncomfortable for
146
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:28.039
modern readers. The people who notice this signal aren't priests,
147
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:33.799
and they aren't temple scholars, they aren't even religious insiders.
148
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:41.159
Their magi from the East straight up outsiders, observers of
149
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:47.519
the heavens, men trained to watch patterns, movements, and anomalies.
150
00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:55.240
They see something change in the sky and think this matters. Meanwhile,
151
00:13:55.840 --> 00:14:02.159
the religious elite and Jerusalem have the scriptures, all the prophecies,
152
00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:07.320
the infrastructure and the authority, and they miss all of
153
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:13.519
this completely. Let that sink in in the supernatural birth
154
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:19.679
of Jesus. Revelation doesn't come through proximity to power or tradition.
155
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:25.720
It comes through attentiveness, through people who are watching and
156
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:30.600
asking and willing to move when something doesn't fit the
157
00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:34.679
normal pattern. And notice how fragile the system is. Once
158
00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:39.360
the signal is detected. The magi don't intend to cause chaos.
159
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:45.039
They're just asking questions, where is the one born King
160
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:54.759
of the Jews. That's it, one sentence, one inquiry, and
161
00:14:54.840 --> 00:15:00.679
the entire political and religious system starts to shake. It
162
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:05.000
wasn't a rebellion that rattled Jerusalem. It was a damn question.
163
00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:10.399
Herod doesn't see the star, he hears about it secondhand,
164
00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:18.120
and yet his reaction, it's immediate fear, calculation and control.
165
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:25.720
He summons religious experts not to debate theology, but to
166
00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:30.759
pinpoint a location, and that's critical. Herod treats the star
167
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:36.159
like intelligence, not myth. And here's the detail that really
168
00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:41.159
seals it. After the Magi leave Herod, the star appears again.
169
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:46.200
It resumes guidance, It leads them safely to the child.
170
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:52.000
Then once the mission is complete, it's gone. That timing matters.
171
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.840
Whatever the star was, it didn't work for Herod. It
172
00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:01.000
only worked for those men to follow it. And Matthew
173
00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:07.039
is showing us a pattern. Heaven communicates, but not indiscriminately.
174
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:16.159
Signals are visible, but they're not universally interpreted. Guidance is available,
175
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:22.679
but not to those seeking control. And this matters right
176
00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:27.240
now as well, because lately people are talking about signs again.
177
00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:33.000
You got patterns and shifts and cultural tremors, not in
178
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:37.679
a sensational way, but in a something feels off way.
179
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:44.320
We keep saying this. Matthew tells us that feeling isn't new.
180
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:50.360
What's new is whether we're praying it, paying attention, or
181
00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:57.600
waiting for permission. And the star didn't convince anyone, and
182
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:03.960
it revealed. Revelation always forces a choice, which brings us
183
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.319
to the final and darkest reaction in this entire story.
184
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:14.440
Because when dreams warn and Star's guide, power just doesn't
185
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:25.640
adapt power panics. Section three, when Herod reacted like he
186
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:31.599
knew the stakes. This is where the story turns dark,
187
00:17:34.400 --> 00:17:41.640
and it turns dark fast, because in the supernatural, the
188
00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:48.119
most revealing response doesn't come from angels, dreamers, or stargazers.
189
00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:52.680
It comes from power and power panics. We see it
190
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:56.400
all the time. Herod's reaction is often written off as
191
00:17:56.519 --> 00:18:02.160
cartoon villain behavior, the evil king, bad guy move on,
192
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:08.720
but Matthew doesn't present him as foolish or confused. He
193
00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:18.240
presents him as threatened, deeply, intelligently and immediately threatened. Matthew
194
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:23.799
says Herod was troubled, man, what am I itching for?
195
00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:29.920
Troubled in all Jerusalem with him? That line should stop
196
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:35.079
you cold. This wasn't private paranoia. This was a system
197
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:42.359
wide disturbance. Something had entered the environment that everyone at
198
00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:48.759
the top felt Matthew two three. When truth enters the room,
199
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:54.359
Poward doesn't ask questions, It runs threat analysis, and Harod
200
00:18:55.039 --> 00:18:59.359
doesn't dismiss the magi, he doesn't mock them, he doesn't
201
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:04.720
say that's superstition. Instead, he calls in religious experts and
202
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:09.640
asks a very specific question, not if the Messiah is coming,
203
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:16.039
but where that detail matters. And Herod believes the prophecy
204
00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:25.480
enough to ask for coordinates. That means in the supernatural
205
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:31.000
birth of Jesus, the political ruler accepts the spiritual premise
206
00:19:31.599 --> 00:19:36.319
faster than the people who claim spiritual authority. Let that
207
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:43.599
sink in. Harod understands something instinctively. This child represents a
208
00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:48.039
different source of authority, one that doesn't come from Rome,
209
00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:54.200
one that doesn't require permission, one that can't It can't
210
00:19:54.240 --> 00:19:59.160
be negotiated with. And once Herod identifies the threat, he
211
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:05.480
goes straight to elimination. Violence is what happens when control
212
00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:10.279
realizes it can't negotiate with truth. Oh man, do we
213
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:16.039
see that now? The massacre of the innocence isn't random cruelty.
214
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:23.119
It's a scorched earth policy. Kill every possible variable, flood
215
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:27.640
the system with chaos so nothing new can take root.
216
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:32.079
Wow does that sound familiar? Everyone? This is what power
217
00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:38.279
does when it feels its expiration day approaching. Here's the
218
00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:43.799
chilling part. Herod never meets Jesus. He never hears him.
219
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:49.200
Teach never sees a miracle, yet he's willing to commit
220
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:58.200
mass murder to stop him. Isn't that wild Fear doesn't
221
00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:06.480
require proximity, it requires perception. In the supernatural birth of Jesus,
222
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:15.559
the clearest negotiation, the clearest recognition of Jesus's threat doesn't
223
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:20.559
come from worship. It comes from resistance. Sometimes the strongest
224
00:21:20.599 --> 00:21:26.640
evidence of truth is who tries to silence it And
225
00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:31.839
notice the pattern again, Just like before, Heaven intervenes real
226
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:39.640
quietly another dream, another rewrote. Joseph has warned not to return.
227
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:44.880
The Magi are warned not to report back. Heaven doesn't
228
00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:50.279
confront Herod directly. It simply moves people out of his reach.
229
00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:57.720
Power swings Heaven's sidesteps. And this matters right now because
230
00:21:57.839 --> 00:22:02.200
lately people are noticing how quick these systems respond when
231
00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:09.640
narratives slip, how aggressively authority clamps down when legitimacy feels threatened.
232
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:18.880
Matthew shows that us that this reaction isn't modern, it's ancient.
233
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:21.720
I mean, it goes all the way back. And when
234
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:26.519
a kingdom based on forced senses a kingdom based on
235
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:30.920
truth arriving, it doesn't debate it just freaking lashes out,
236
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:35.720
and Matthew opens his gospel by saying, this is how
237
00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:41.920
it started, not with applause, with fear, not with unity,
238
00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:47.359
with straight up division, and not with peace on earth,
1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:04.160
2
00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:08.400
