In this Mystery Mailbag edition, Scott Mitchell answers listener questions about demons and animals, Islamic influence in end-times prophecy, pets in heaven, the “Three Days of Darkness,” interpretations of music and symbolism, and the portrayal of biblical figures in art. These heartfelt questions reflect the curiosity and faith of believers seeking clarity through Scripture.
Listener Questions Featured
Demonic Possession in Animals – Pam
Pam wonders whether demonic spirits can inhabit animals as part of spiritual warfare.
Scott discusses biblical examples such as Jesus casting devils into a herd of swine, noting that Scripture provides no indication of ongoing possession of animals beyond that account. He emphasizes discernment, prayer, and fasting when facing spiritual concerns, while recognizing that animal behavior is usually just part of their nature.
Will Muslims Persecute Christians? – Cindy
Cindy asks whether Islam could be the driving force behind Christian persecution in the end times.
Scott explains that Satan uses all religious and political systems—not just Islam—to oppose the truth of God. He warns that persecution will come from multiple fronts, including government, false religion, and global elites, leading toward the rise of the Antichrist.
Will My Pets Be in Heaven? – Liz
Liz shares the heartbreaking loss of her two dogs and asks if beloved pets will be in heaven.
Scott offers comfort, reminding listeners that God’s love and desire for His children’s joy could include reuniting them with cherished animals. While Scripture doesn’t confirm this specifically, he encourages trust in God’s goodness and His perfect plan for eternal joy.
The Three Days of Darkness – Patrick
Patrick asks about the “Three Days of Darkness” prophecy.
Scott explains that this concept originates from Catholic mystic Anna Maria Taigi (1769–1837) and is not found in Scripture. While the Bible does mention darkness during the Tribulation, Scott clarifies that believers should focus on the biblical warnings of judgment and salvation through Christ rather than extra-biblical prophecies.
Dr. Barry Awe and Biblical Similitudes – Joanna
Joanna introduces Scott to Dr. Barry Awe’s Bible studies on YouTube.
Scott shares that he’s familiar with Dr. Awe’s engaging and detailed teachings about prophetic symbolism, though he notes that some of the timing predictions have been incorrect. Still, he appreciates the heart and scriptural focus behind Barry’s message.
“In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” and Hidden Meaning – C. Stein
Cindy reflects on the 1960s song In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly, originally meant to be In the Garden of Eden, suggesting possible symbolic meaning.
Scott notes that artistic interpretation can vary widely, much like dreams, and while it’s interesting to analyze music in a spiritual context, such connections are speculative.
Why Are Biblical Figures Depicted as Caucasian? – Donnie
Donnie questions why most artistic depictions of angels and Bible figures are Caucasian despite their Middle Eastern origins.
Scott explains that regional art from Europe reflected the artists’ own societies and limited exposure to other ethnicities. He clarifies that biblical people, including Jesus, would have reflected Semitic Middle Eastern features, and that God’s Word is focused on spiritual truth, not race or appearance.
Closing Thoughts
Scott concludes with gratitude for all who wrote in, reminding listeners that Scripture’s message transcends ethnicity, culture, and speculation. The central truth remains Christ’s redemption and the believer’s walk in faith.
