In this episode, Scott and John explore the enduring influence of the Pharisees—religious leaders Jesus openly condemned for their hypocrisy. But the spirit behind their actions didn’t die in the first century. It’s alive today, operating through modern religious systems rooted in man-made tradition, spiritual blindness, and rebellion against God’s truth.

Tracing the lineage of deception from Cain to the Pharisees and forward to today’s untoward generation, the hosts reveal how false religion continues to shape doctrine, confuse believers, and prepare the world for even greater apostasy.Key Topics Covered
The legacy of Cain and the origins of false worship
Pharisees as religious deceivers and blind guides
What Scripture calls an “untoward generation” (Acts 2:40)
Dispensational distinctions: Peter’s message vs. Paul’s gospel
How modern churches reflect ancient Babylonian systems
The danger of religious systems that lack spiritual fruit
What true worship and obedience look like in this age of grace

Scripture References (KJV)
Genesis 4:1–8 – Cain’s offering and rebellion
Jude 1:10–11 – The way of Cain
Matthew 3:7–12 – John the Baptist rebukes the Pharisees
Matthew 5:20 – Righteousness exceeding that of the Pharisees
Matthew 7:15–23 – False prophets in sheep’s clothing
Matthew 12:22–37 – Jesus confronts their blasphemy
Matthew 23:13–15, 27–33 – Woes pronounced on the Pharisees
Acts 2:38–40 – The “untoward generation”
Genesis 6:9; 7:1 – Righteousness in Noah’s generation
Deuteronomy 1:34–37 – Unbelief in the wilderness
Hebrews 3:7–11 – Hardened hearts of a rebellious generation
Ezekiel 31:3–18 – Assyrian pride and its fall
Ezekiel 34:12 – God seeks His scattered sheep
Proverbs 23:31–32 – The cup that bites like a serpent
Acts 4:12 – The only name by which we must be saved

Takeaway
Religious tradition alone will not save you. The way of Cain—rooted in pride, self-righteousness, and man-made worship—lives on through religious systems that reject God’s truth in favor of appearance and control. The Pharisees were called vipers and children of the devil for a reason: they promoted religion over righteousness.

Now more than ever, we must be discerning. True faith is evidenced by the fruit of the Spirit—justice, mercy, love—not religious performance. Stay rooted in the gospel of grace and the rightly divided Word of God.

“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” – Matthew 11:15

Episode 234: The Little Gods: The Rise of Satanic Elites and the War Against Truth

In this episode of the Bible Mysteries podcast, Scott Mitchell and John Potts discuss the concept of 'Little Gods,' focusing on the Satanic global elites and their biblical ties.

The episode delves into the nature of fallen angels, devils, and the divine council, comparing them to modern human elites who see themselves as gods. The discussion includes biblical passages from Romans, John, Psalms, and Deuteronomy, exploring the deeper meanings and implications. The hosts also touch on controversial topics such as human sacrifice, abortion, and the hidden agendas of global elites.

This episode is brought to your by our Seekers: Michael Warner, Donna Ragsdale, and James Alire
