What if the warnings scattered across Scripture and ancient texts are all pointing to the same reality?

In this deep-dive study, we walk line by line through the Book of Jude and uncover its powerful connections to Genesis, the Book of Enoch, and the Book of Giants. These writings don’t exist in isolation — together, they form a unified warning about rebellion, corruption, and spiritual infiltration.

Jude doesn’t just speak to the past… he speaks to us.

We explore how Jude’s references to the Watchers, divine judgment, and ancient transgressions echo the events recorded in Genesis and expanded upon in Enochic tradition. We examine how the rebellion of heavenly beings, the rise of corrupted powers, and the warnings given to the faithful reveal an ongoing spiritual conflict that has never truly ended.

But this is not just theology or history.

We connect these ancient warnings to what we see unfolding today — in politics, entertainment, cultural movements, and even within the modern church. Are the same patterns repeating? Are believers being called once again to discern, to resist corruption, and to contend for the faith?

This study is about vigilance, discernment, and spiritual awareness.

The message of Jude is clear: deception does not always appear openly hostile. Sometimes it infiltrates, influences, and reshapes from within. Understanding these ancient texts helps us recognize the patterns, expose the strategies, and remain grounded in truth.

If you want to understand the deeper context behind Jude’s warnings — and why they still matter right now — this study will challenge the way you see Scripture, history, and the world around you.

Stay watchful. Stay discerning. Contend for the faith.

Did the Flood truly erase the Nephilim… or did some of them survive?

Genesis 6 tells us the Nephilim were on the earth “in those days—and also afterward.” That final phrase has puzzled scholars, theologians, and historians for centuries. If the Flood was meant to cleanse the earth of corruption, why does Scripture later describe giants reappearing in the land—Anakim, Rephaim, Zamzummim, and the towering warriors encountered by Israel?

This video explores the possibility of Nephilim survival beyond the Flood, not through speculation alone, but by examining biblical language, ancient Near Eastern traditions, and post-Flood genetic anomalies described in Scripture. We look at multiple theories:

• A genetic survival through Noah’s lineage

• A second incursion of Watchers after the Flood

• Preservation through non-human bloodlines

• Or deliberate concealment of knowledge and power among post-Flood civilizations

We’ll also examine why giants appear repeatedly in strategic locations—mountain strongholds, fortified cities, and sacred regions—and why their destruction is commanded in ways unlike any other people group.

This isn’t mythology for entertainment’s sake. This is about understanding the spiritual and historical context of the Bible, the reason behind divine judgment, and why the Nephilim narrative doesn’t end at Genesis 6.

If giants truly walked the earth after the Flood, the question isn’t if Scripture supports it—but why that truth was obscured.

Watch with discernment. Question assumptions. Follow the text.

What if the world before the Flood was far more advanced—and far more mysterious—than we’ve been taught to imagine?

In this episode, we journey back into the antediluvian age, the shadowy era before Noah’s Flood, to challenge surface-level readings of Scripture and uncover the bigger biblical picture. By reexamining familiar passages through the lens of ancient context, overlooked details, and long-forgotten traditions, we ask the questions most never think to ask:

What kind of world existed before the Flood?

Why does the Bible speak of giants, watchers, and lost knowledge?

And what does this forgotten age reveal about humanity’s origins, purpose, and the reset of creation itself?

This is not about replacing the Bible—it’s about reading it more deeply. We peel back modern assumptions, explore the world behind the text, and connect biblical clues that hint at a civilization wiped from history but not from Scripture.

If you’re ready to move beyond Sunday-school answers and explore the ancient world the Bible actually describes, this episode will change the way you read Genesis forever.

 This episode examines the case for Atlantis as a real, pre-Flood civilization whose influence shaped the ancient world. In this episode, we explore Atlantis through a multidisciplinary framework—scripture, ancient historians, mythology, and archaeology—to present a perspective that holds historical merit and warrants serious, critical consideration.

Rather than treating Atlantis as mere legend or allegory, this discussion approaches it as a preserved historical memory found across multiple ancient traditions. From Plato’s detailed accounts to biblical genealogies, Mesopotamian records, and global flood narratives, we examine how these sources intersect and reinforce one another, pointing toward the existence of an advanced antediluvian empire that preceded the Flood.

This episode leans heavily on the research of Gary Wayne, particularly his work in The Genesis 6 Conspiracy. Drawing from over 30 years of research and a vast collection of ancient texts, mytho-historical records, and archaeological references, Wayne presents a unified reconstruction of the pre-Flood world—its civilizations, power structures, and eventual destruction.

Throughout the episode, we critically evaluate the evidence, challenge modern historical assumptions, and ask why so many ancient cultures preserved remarkably similar accounts of a lost world. Atlantis: The Antediluvian Empire is not presented as speculation, but as a historically grounded hypothesis supported by converging lines of evidence that deserves thoughtful examination.

This episode is for listeners interested in ancient history, biblical studies, forbidden archaeology, and the deeper origins of civilization.

So many of us spend our lives earning wages that others decide for us—just like the Israelites under Pharaoh’s rule. But God never meant for His people to live limited by someone else’s measure. He promised a land flowing with abundance, a place where we don’t just work for assets, we create them—like the spies who carried back the fruit of Canaan.

This podcast is about learning what it truly means to prosper in the land of promise. We’ll explore biblical principles, modern mindsets, and practical strategies that shift us from being mere assets in someone else’s system to becoming creators, stewards, and builders of the good land God has prepared.

If you’re ready to break free from survival wages and step into overflow—this is your journey.

In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into one of humanity’s oldest written texts—the Sumerian creation myth known as the Enuma Elish. This ancient Mesopotamian narrative, dating back to the second millennium BCE, offers a vivid account of the creation of the universe, the rise of the gods, and humanity’s place in the cosmos. But beyond its mythological framework lies an intriguing question: Could this ancient tale contain echoes of truth that align with the Bible’s account of creation?

Join us as we unravel the fascinating parallels between the Enuma Elish and the biblical creation story in Genesis. From the formation of the heavens and the earth to the role of divine power in shaping humanity, the similarities are striking. Yet, the differences are equally compelling, providing insight into the distinct theological perspectives of ancient cultures.

We explore themes such as:

•The Primordial Waters: Both the Enuma Elish and Genesis describe a pre-creation state dominated by waters. In the Enuma Elish, chaos is represented by the goddess Tiamat, while Genesis speaks of the Spirit of God hovering over the waters. Could this shared imagery point to a common cultural memory of creation?

•Creation Through Word and Power: While Marduk, the hero of the Enuma Elish, uses violent force to create the world by defeating Tiamat, the Bible presents God’s creation as a peaceful and sovereign act of speaking life into existence. What does this contrast reveal about the nature of the divine?

•The Role of Humanity: In the Enuma Elish, humans are created from the blood of a slain god to serve the gods. In Genesis, humanity is made in God’s image and entrusted with stewardship of the earth. These differing roles offer profound insights into the value placed on human life in each worldview.

Throughout the episode, we also consider the historical and cultural context of the Enuma Elish, reflecting on how ancient Mesopotamian beliefs shaped their understanding of the divine and creation. At the same time, we examine how the Bible provides a counter-narrative that emphasizes a single, sovereign Creator who establishes order, purpose, and relationship with humanity.

By comparing these accounts, we aim to uncover the deeper truths they hold. Could the Enuma Elish serve as a distorted reflection of the biblical account, preserving fragments of truth amidst layers of myth? Or do these similarities arise from shared cultural archetypes that resonate across civilizations?

Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a theology lover, or simply curious about the connections between ancient texts, this episode invites you to explore the intersection of mythology, scripture, and truth.

Tune in for an engaging discussion that bridges the ancient and the eternal, offering fresh insights into the origins of humanity’s most enduring questions about creation and the Creator.

Buckle up! This is one episode that is sure to challenge your theology. We are tackling taboo questions that you never thought to ask. Is it possible that we were not the first ones on Earth? Can such an argument be supported in the Scriptures?

In this episode, we dive back into the conversation that often leaves more questions than answers: the Nephilim. 

It’s good to be back! In this episode, we’re talking about the importance of covenant. It’s such a buzzword in American churches, but I don’t believe a lot of people really understand the ramifications of invoking so powerful a weapon. So today we’re going to look at two different men who made covenants; Abraham and Lot. The point of this video is to convey that covenants matter, be they good or be they bad. And to be completely honest, it matters who we make covenant with, even if they come under the guise of doing so in the name of God.

This week we continue you our conversation on the tactics of Sun Tzu in the Art of War. How do we see these things at play in the world around us and in our own lives? What you learn may be just as shocking as it is enlightening.

Jeremy Jenkins is back on the Vertical Discourse to disclose the agenda of the Art of War by Sun Tzu. This book has impacted not only celebrities, politicians and athletes, but the entire world as we know it. Join us as our new cohost delves into the reason for it all.

This week we pick up where we left off in our discussion of Halloween. But instead of deep-diving into the pass, we address many of the current mindsets today.

This week we jump back into the origins of Halloween, to understand firsthand why we should disengage.

Happy July 4th to you! Today's brief episode revolves around the mysterious term, "Ala-Mahozim." 

There's a lot to be said for an entity that has not only hid in plain sight, but has done it for thousands of years. Continuing with out discourse on Nimrod, we take a look at the role of the mother in the Unholy Trinity, as well as the son.

As we continue our conversation of the ancient Sumerian world, we turn our attention to the progenitor of antiquity's favorite Nephilim king. 

This episode tells us how the horoscopes reflect the pagan story of Sumer's greatest hero.

The Vertical Discourse welcomes its first guest speaker, Jeremy Jenkins. From speaking on the Nephilim of Old to decoding biblical Hebraic messages, Jeremy proves to be a wealth of knowledge.

Gilgamesh the Sumerian King. Who was he, and is he due the respect that the legends give him? Or should we respect him at all?

In this episode, we take a look at the Watchers and their offspring known as the Nephilim. 

In this episode, we explore the conventional understanding of Sheol, and how it has been interpreted in Scripture, mythology, and modern culture.

After a month missing in action, Vertical Discourse is back with a new episode! More of a brain-dump than an episode, Unconventional Cross explores the idea of not just accepting Truth, but understanding that Truth is often inconvenient. Especially when we begin to focus on reality outside of our personal road to salvation.

What is there to know about the Tree of Life? This episode is a continuation of our conversation on the Garden of Eden. We don't have all the answers, but the questions can be just as fascinating.

Many of us are familiar with the garden of Eden, whether we think it to be real or mythical. It's not until we take a closer look at scripture and extrabiblical context that we start to have the context for new questions.

I don't claim to have the answers. I just claim to dig beneath the surface of conventional belief.

Last week in Australia, Country Grammar rapper Nelly performed "All in My Head" for a crowd of fans. Apparently, whatever (or whoever) was in his head wanted to make its own appearance. Since then, commentaries have popped up to confirm and refute the possibility of demon possession, as opposed to drugs.

Continuing from last week, we dive into the deeper meaning and implications of Joseph Campbell's monomythic journey.

The entertainment industry is filled with various movie heroes and storybook characters that reflect who we are what it means to be human. At least, that’s what is portrayed on the surface… In this episode, we explore different archetypes, the Hero’s Journey, and why it matters more than you may think.

After taking a look at creation according to Genesis 1, we follow up with the model of the world as is it, as opposed to how it's been taught.

Where did Earth come from? What can we learn about ourselves from the first chapter on Genesis? How did the pagan world view creation? How do Darwinism and Evolution fit into the equation?

What is Vertical Discourse? Great question. This episode takes a look at the major themes that this podcast tackles, explaining how they are relevant to one another, and why you should care.

In this podcast, we unravel two topics that appear to be completely unrelated but have a very common thread. Ba'al, the Mesopotamian deity of fertility and destruction, makes an appearance in the production promotion of Balenciaga and in the 2022 Commonwealth Games.
