    756: Second Heaven Soul Hunters

    Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference! If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890 Description: In episode 756: Second Heaven Soul Hunters, Tony is joined once again by Dan Duval for a mind-bending conversation that rips the veil off the unseen realm, and what’s bleeding through it. This episode dives headfirst into the mystery of the second heaven, the spiritual dimension that lies between Earth and Heaven, and the ancient war that still echoes into our present. Dan unpacks the biblical concept of Arche, the realm of beginnings, and how our spirits existed in God before conception. But with that revelation comes a stunning possibility: many are born already in bondage, tied to soul trades, pre-Adamic trauma, and cosmic conspiracies that predate Eden itself. Together, Tony and Dan unravel real accounts of soul hunting, time travel-induced soul fragmentation, and the second heaven’s connection to extraterrestrial phenomena. From hidden labs and off-planet abductions to spiritual generals fighting pre-Adamic wars against counterfeit creation templates like the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, nothing is off the table. They explore how rituals, timelines, and interdimensional warfare all collide in the effort to break cycles of trauma through the blood of Jesus. This isn’t fringe—it’s frontline.

If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890 Description: In episode 755: Marked By The Wolfman, Tony is joined by Parris, a man whose childhood was marked by a spiritual battle he never asked for, but couldn’t escape. It started around age six, when a towering gray-skinned demon appeared in his home, causing his mother to vanish mid-hallway and plunging him into supernatural terror. As the years went on, this entity returned, appearing in windows, lurking in trees, stalking him like a predator. But Parris wasn't just being haunted, he was being recruited. As his faith deepened, so did the enemy’s attacks. From being named by the spirit of Apollyon in a dream that left physical marks, to being paralyzed and choked by a shadowy figure during a Florida vacation, Parris recounts a life of spiritual warfare that blurred the lines between dreams and reality. Yet amid the darkness, divine encounters lit the path. Towering angels clothed in white, heavenly singing that drowned out the demonic lies, and a revelation of authority in Christ changed the game. This is more than a story about nightmares; It’s a testimony of how heaven moves when hell tries to mark you—and how light always exposes the shadow.

    754: The NDE Conspiracy
    May 6 2025
    Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference! If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890 Description: In episode 754: The NDE Conspiracy, Tony is joined by Shaun Tabatt, author of The NDE Conspiracy, for a deep-dive into the strange, murky realm of near-death experiences—and the sinister deceptions hiding behind the light. What begins as a discussion about NDEs quickly spirals into a multi-layered exposé on spiritual hijacking, second-heaven warfare, and false encounters with “beings of light” that mask a demonic agenda. From children recalling past lives to mediums unknowingly channeling familiar spirits, Shaun reveals how the enemy counterfeits heavenly encounters in order to detour souls into New Age delusion. But this isn’t just theory—it’s grounded in documented cases, verified out-of-body perceptions, and firsthand accounts of people who died, met their “spirit guide,” and came back with dark, twisted theology. Tony and Shaun connect dots between NDEs, alien abductions, soul-trapping tech, and biblical portals in the second heaven—suggesting that the real battle for our souls may not start after death, but in the space between. In a realm full of lies that look like light, this episode is a reminder that discernment matters—and that truth still breaks through the counterfeit.

If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890 Description: In episode 753: Bound by Ancestral Blood, Tony is joined by Rebeca, a woman raised in a Christian household who discovered her faith was rooted in a lie. What began with childhood hauntings, shadows moving, voices whispering, a demon sitting on her bed, spiraled into full-blown spiritual war when her teenage son dropped to all fours and began manifesting. As Rebeca and her husband scrambled for answers, the truth emerged in pieces: her grandmother had made a blood covenant in secret, and the demons weren’t just tormenting, they had been assigned. The battle that followed brought blood to the surface. Rebeca vomited red during self-deliverance, bled from her nose for minutes during prayer, and heard ancient spirits mock her by name. Her family line, traced to the Basque region and shrouded in occult practices, was marked. And the only way out was through spiritual violence. This isn’t just a story of exorcism. It’s a generational war hiding in the skin of normal life. Because when your bloodline has been claimed by darkness, deliverance isn’t optional—it’s survival.

    Description:
    In episode 752: Born For War In The Unseen Realm, Tony is joined by Mike, who shares a lifetime of chilling encounters that trace back to one fateful Halloween night. As a young boy, Mike had a shocking run-in with a man in a red devil costume; a sinister encounter that seemed harmless at first, until strange changes began taking over his life. From being drawn into dark dreams and blacking out while creating violent drawings, to speaking with mirror entities and losing toys to unseen forces, Mike’s story unfolds into a tapestry of spiritual oppression and eerie visitations.

    But the darkness didn’t stop there. Mike details haunting experiences with shadow figures, entities whispering by his bedside, cursed objects, and a bizarre connection to a haunted book that seemed to literally pull him inside its pages. As Tony and Mike dig deeper, the pieces start to fit together; encounters with Lilith, strange ties to Freemasonry, and a chilling family connection to Disney World’s darker secrets all paint a picture of spiritual warfare that began in childhood and escalated into adulthood. It's an episode packed with hauntings, hidden forces, and spiritual battles, and it all started with a simple grab of the wrist.
