Halloween Medium Sparks Church Backlash, Rapture Date Fails | NDS w/ Ed Mabrie
Can a church host a psychic medium for Halloween? A Halloween medium event in St. Maries, Idaho drew backlash from local churches, and Ed Mabrie of Faith By Reason joins TopLobsta and David Lee Corbo "The Raven" live to break down what the Bible says about mediums, whether Christian families should trick-or-treat, and Paul on meat sacrificed to idols. Plus: a pastor botches yet another rapture date. Streamed live Wednesday, October 28, 2026. Then Ed answers the backlash from his last appearance: does God know the future? Ed walks through Daniel 7 and the little horn, Jeremiah 1:5, Moses changing God's mind in Exodus, Jeremiah 19:5 ("neither came it into my mind"), and Jonah and Nineveh, and argues that free will is real because God responds to our choices. Also: Calvinism and who gets to interpret Scripture, God, time and gravity, and the case of the counterfeit NDS T-shirt.
