1 | Who were the "sons of God" in Gen 6:4? | Gen 6:4 | Scribe | 43653 | ||
Yes. Adam was called son of God. Luke 3:38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God. The sons of God in Gen 6:4 are those that called themselves by the name of the Lord in Adams Camp. Genesis 4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD. Then in Cains camp they were developing a life that was not focused on God or a hope of redemption. In Adams Camp Enoch was prophesying of the coming of the Lord with 10,000s of his saints and there were men from cains camp that would contend with him. These people in cains camp were the children of men. When the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were attractive and good to look at, and then they began to mix with them. This same sin has been the downfall of the people of God from the beginning and is still happening today. As you read through the Bible you will continue to see this pattern of "truth stream". When Jude speaks of the error of Cain he compares it with the counsel of Balaam. Now we know what Balaam taught. Balaam taught the king Balak to defeat the Israelites by sending the Moabite women in to mix with them. Today satan is still attempting the same strategy against those that keep the testimony of Jesus Christ. Satan will try to get the people of God to get involved romantically with an ungodly person if he can because he knows that in almost every case the godly person will be corrupted, not the ungodly saved. Follow this passage in Gen 6 with these thoughts in mind and you will see it applies much more logically than that of angels and men mixing. Also read the text carefully without looking at it through the filters you may have learned from other men teachings. It does not say that after the sons of god had sex with the daughters of men the babies were giants. It says that there were giants in the land in those days. End of sentence then as a seperate sentence it says when offspring of the sons of god and daughters of men were men of renown. This term means they were like feudal lords. And the violence filled the land as a result of these fuedal lords leading bands of maurading cruel and viscious men of rapine and wickedness. This is the underlying meaning of the words. Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. Numbers 16:2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown: See how the same words are used to describe the authority of princes in Israel? The idea is that this next generation of offspring of the children of those men that had corrupted themselves with mixing with the ungodly women became these authoritative rulers over bands or tribes and the violence that resulted is linked to the this statment. So it would be like feudal lords but of a very vicious nature. There may even be the idea of cannabilism here. What about the giants? Well I see that as a seperate statement altogether. Genesis 6:3-5 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. I lean toward this idea. There were giants in the land in those days. Giant, ferns, giant beasts, (dinosaurs), giant men (10 feet) giant dragon flies. A time of many giant things. This is a mention of various giant things. I do not really see Nephilim as necessarily meaning people only, this might have been used to refer to people, "sons of Nephilim" but I think the word is used here to express "giant". |

Are you inferring that the second person of the trinity was a created being, or that his flesh was procreated ? You also mention that Adam was dead before he was alive, where in the Bible did you find this and if Adam was dead it must have been because he died, this doesn't make any sense, please so Bible verses. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. |

I looked up in the dictionary to find out who the Nephilim were. It states they were of the tribe of the Canaanitish. And were widely honored and acclaimed in the world. I supposed the sons of God were the descendants of Christ. For Christ had a Kingdom somewhere. As for the birth of Christ, Im stating a biblical fact. He was created the same way that babies are created. And Adam did not become a living person until God breathed into it the breath of life. | ||||||
