Are psychic abilities like remote viewing, telepathy, and clairvoyance actually remnants of Adam’s pre-Fall gifts? In this episode, Michael Young (Charismatic Cheetah Podcast) interviews Matthew C. McGuire about his article exploring the provocative thesis of Abbot Alois Wiesinger, a Catholic theologian who believed paranormal powers are atrophied functions of the human soul—intended to be redeemed by grace.

We discuss:

• What remote viewing and other psychic abilities actually are

• The surprising religious origins of parapsychology

• Whether Christians should be involved in practices like remote viewing

• Wiesinger’s conclusions about “loosening the soul”

• What Augustine and C.S. Lewis had to say about mystical and psychic experiences

• Real-world programs like the U.S. government’s Star Gate psychic spy project

• How Christians can discern true mysticism from pseudomysticism

• And why this topic matters in the modern supernatural conversation

If you're into fringe theology, parapsychology, spiritual gifts, and Christian discernment—this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Charismatic Cheetah Podcast, host Michael Young sits down with author and researcher J. Steve Miller to explore the mysterious and often controversial world of near-death experiences (NDEs).

Are these powerful moments evidence of life after death, hallucinations caused by a dying brain, or something more deceptive? We discuss how NDEs relate to the Christian worldview, whether they align with biblical teaching, and what they might reveal about God, the soul, and eternity.

Topics include:

• The most compelling NDE accounts Steve has studied

• How skeptics explain NDEs—and where those explanations fall short

• Whether NDEs support universalism or point to the God of the Bible

• How Christians can engage this topic without falling into deception

Whether you're a believer, skeptic, or just curious about what happens after we die, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

Charismatic Cheetah Podcast – Exploring biblical continuationism, spiritual gifts, fringe theology, and the supernatural through a thoughtful, biblical lens.

#NearDeathExperiences #Afterlife #ChristianPodcast #Apologetics #SteveMiller #NDE #LifeAfterDeath #CharismaticCheetah

In this episode, I’m joined by Ryan Denton to talk about hyper-cessationism—what it is, how it differs from historic Reformed cessationism, and where it stands in relation to moderate continuationism. We dive into what the Reformers and Puritans actually believed about prophecy, dreams, and divine revelation. Did they really believe all gifts had ceased? The answer might surprise you.

📚 We also explore how today’s popular cessationism may be more rigid—and less biblical—than what the Westminster divines taught.

In this follow-up episode, I’m joined again by New Testament scholar James Snapp Jr.—and this time, we go deep. If Part One was focused on responding to Wes Huff’s video arguing against the long ending of Mark, Part Two is all about the positive case.

Snapp walks us through a wide range of evidence supporting the authenticity of Mark 16:9–20, including:

• Greek manuscript data

• Patristic citations

• Internal consistency with Mark’s style

• And why it absolutely deserves to be in your Bible

This episode includes detailed analysis, historical context, and even references to the slides presented in the YouTube version.

In this episode, I’m joined by New Testament scholar and author James Snapp Jr. to tackle the controversy surrounding the so-called "long ending" of Mark’s Gospel—Mark 16:9–20.

This was originally intended to be a single episode, but as we dug deeper into Snapp’s responses and the overwhelming amount of evidence he brings to the table, it became clear this needed to be a two-parter.

Part One is focused on directly responding to the claims made by Wes Huff in his recent video arguing against the authenticity of Mark 16:9–20.

Part Two (coming soon) will feature a full presentation from James Snapp Jr. as he lays out his positive case for why the long ending is original—complete with manuscript data, early church references, and more.

Whether you’re a Bible nerd, a church history fan, or just curious about one of the most debated New Testament passages, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

In this clip from my full interview with L.A. Marzulli, we explore how Genesis 3:15 unlocks the entire biblical narrative—from the fall in the Garden to the flood, the Nephilim, Sodom and Gomorrah, and the conquest of Canaan. Marzulli shares how this often-overlooked verse reveals a cosmic seed war between the offspring of the woman and the offspring of the serpent.

📌 Topics covered: – Why L.A. Marzulli was kicked out of churches – The supernatural context of Genesis 3:15 – The idea of DNA corruption at the fall – Why God judged the world with the flood – The Nephilim and their role in biblical history

In this powerful clip, L.A. Marzulli explains the discovery of the “curse tablet” at Joshua’s altar and how it connects directly to the Genesis 3:15 seed war. Was the conquest of Canaan really about tribal warfare—or was it a battle between the offspring of the woman and the offspring of the serpent? This segment sheds light on the Nephilim presence in the Promised Land and why God's judgment was so severe.

📌 Topics covered: – The archaeological discovery at Joshua’s altar – Who the “cursed of Yahweh” really refers to – Why the conquest of Canaan was a spiritual war – How Genesis 3:15 continues to echo through biblical history

In this clip from my interview with L.A. Marzulli, we explore the reality of UFO crash retrievals—like the Roswell incident—and how supernatural technology shows up in Scripture. Marzulli shares evidence of metal artifacts found in the Roswell field, details the lengths the military went to cover it up, and then connects the dots to biblical encounters with otherworldly tech, from flaming swords to Ezekiel’s wheel.

📌 Topics covered: – What was really found at Roswell – Metal shards, military interference, and coverups – How biblical descriptions of “flaming swords” and “chariots of fire” may reflect real supernatural tech – Why Elisha, Ezekiel, and John may have been describing advanced, divine machinery – Why Christians must stop dismissing the supernatural in Scripture
