2 | nephillim offspring of fallen angels? | Gen 6:1 | prayon | 35362 | ||
Some people believe that the "sons of God" were fallen angels, however the "sons of God" were probably not angels because angels do not marry or reproduce. Some scholars believe that this phrase refers to the descendants of Seth who intermarried with Cain's evil descendants ("the daughters of humans"). This would have weakened the good influence of the faithful and increased moral depravity in the world. The result was an explosion of evil. "Nephilim" refers to a powerful race of giants. (footnote from the Life Application Bible) prayon | ||||||

Searcher56, Please forgive me. It seems as though my question may have appeared offensive in some way. Please understand that it was not meant to be that way. In the post by Makarios on 2/20 at 3:30 AM I recieved the scripture information that was needed for me to understand that angels cannot not reproduce with humans. Please bear with me as I attempt to explain why I even asked this question because it is important to me that the forum understand my intentions. I have been a "back woods" Christian for many years. In other words, I have had very limited access to such wonderful learning tools as the forum. It is important to me that I study and learn as much as possible about the Word of GOD so that when I share with with others I understand what I am sharing, whether it be salvation through Jesus Christ or events in the Old Testament. On this particular subject for example I have always told others, when they ask, that the sons of GOD were fallen angels. Apparently I have been wrong. This concerns me! I want to go to them and correct what I have told them! Since I cannot, I will pray that the right information is revealed to them. This is my purpose in the forum. If I seem imature in the knowledge of the Bible and in the wording of the questions or answers that I post, I am truely sorry. In addition, If my reason for involvement with the forum is a waste of the Saints' time then please direct me to a web sight that would provide teachings to me that are geared more toward my purpose. I do not want to waste anyone's time and especially do not want to offend any of GOD's wonderful children. From now on if I have questions regarding a subject that is posted I will do a search on it before posting a question, answering a question, or following up with a note. prayon, I hope that you read this note. I Love you in Christ Jesus. If I've offended you in any way please know that I am truely sorry. LOVE IN JESUS CHRIST, my LORD and SAVIOR, Cyclist |
