1 | Spiritual beings procreate? | Gen 6:4 | inHzsvc | 1920 | ||
The term "sons of God" refers to beings actually created by God in the OT. The only other three places that term is used is in the Book of Job. Most conservative scholars agree that those references, at least, refer to angels. Why does this passage in Gen. 6 not refer to the daughters of God? Why is it so hard to conceive of the Nephilim being the product of fallen angels cohabitating with the daughters of men? Does not Jude tell us that there was a group of angels that "left their first estate" and they, like Sodom and Gomorrah, went after strange flesh in fornication? Does not II Peter tell us of some angels that sinned and are now reserved unto judgment? Was not everybody except Noah and his family destroyed in the flood? That seems to tell us that Noah and his family were the only righteous ones on the Earth at that time. Does the intermingling of the lost and the saved normally produce giants? I think not. Folks, it's not far-fetched. It's good Bible interpretation. By the way, Eve is said to be the mother of "all living" in the Book of Genesis. That should do away with the heresy that Adam and Eve weren't the only humans actually created by God without an Earthly father or mother. God bless. |

2 | Spiritual beings procreate? | Gen 6:4 | Brent Douglass | 1933 | ||
p.s. I agree with your last paragraph. You'll have to get another fantasy, Charis; I think the one about other people being actually created by God is probably ruled out by this verse that InHzSvc quoted (Genesis 3:20). p.p.s. Is my CAPITALIZATION OK? ;-) |

3 | Spiritual beings procreate? | Gen 6:4 | charis | 1941 | ||
Dear Brent Douglass, Your describing what I clearly said was speculation as fantasy was rude and uncalled for. 'Ruled out' is a strong phrase from someone who stated that Genesis 6:4 was an 'obscure' passage, accusing me of 'upside-down pyramids.' 'Argumentative style' is fine, but rudeness does not become us. Bless you, dear fellow, in Jesus' name, charis |

Amen.....let's try and keep the discussions civil. It's OK to disagree on things such as this. But, let's disagree agreeably. | ||||||
