1 | the angels that sinned | 2 Pet 2:4 | DarcyA | 96762 | ||
My opinion is this: The Sons of God mentioned in Genesis 6 are fallen angels. Here are the main reasons I believe this: 1) Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. Here the Sons of God are refering to angels. 2) The Only man in the Old testement is called a son of God is Adam (Luke 3:38). We aren't called sons of God until the New Testament. And I believe this is the reason: a) The angels and Adam are directly created by God. After Adam yes we are created by God but also must go through a woman to be born. Now in the New Testament Jesus says we must be born again or probably a better translation is Born from above (John 3:3) That is when we are born (created) directly from God. Hince we are new Creatures. (2 Cor. 5:17) Then we become sons of God. Now why there are some fallen angels bound and some not. After the Flood we know that Angels kept having relations with woman (ie. Goliath and his brothers are the offspring)Those angels are now bound. Also notice what God tells Satan in Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel." Now I think the reasons for the Angels going into the daughters of men was to defile the seed that the Messiah would come from. Satan tried this tatic but it didn't work because Noah was righteous in God's eyes. (Gen. 6:9) In Christ, Darcy |

Greetings Darcy, 1) I agree, Job 1:6 is speaking about angels when it mentions "sons of God." However, Job and Genesis were written by two different human authors, and it is not guaranteed that both of these human authors were using "sons of God" in the same sense given the context of each place in Scripture. 2) In Luke 3:38, Adam is not mentioned as a "son of God" in the same sense that Genesis 6:4 and Job 1:6 are speaking of. In fact, the only reason that Luke 3:38 mentions "..Adam, the son of God" is in reference to geneaology ONLY. Other scripture passages such as 1 Cor. 15:22,45 describe Adam as a man who sinned, and therefore, could not be a "son of God" in any more sense than we are, except for geneaology purposes ONLY. As for Christians becoming "sons of God", that is a topic that has no relation to this topic. Also, you said: "Now why there are some fallen angels bound and some not. After the Flood we know that Angels kept having relations with woman (ie. Goliath and his brothers are the offspring)Those angels are now bound." There is Absolutely NO Scriptural evidence for this statement. Also, Genesis 3:15 has Absolutely NOTHING to do with angels/line of Seth being "sons of God." You also stated: "Now I think the reasons for the Angels going into the daughters of men was to defile the seed that the Messiah would come from. Satan tried this tatic but it didn't work because Noah was righteous in God's eyes. (Gen. 6:9)" There is Absolutely NO Scriptural evidence for this statement. Blessings to you, Makarios |

"There is Absolutely NO Scriptural evidence for this statement." Try re-wording that, please? That, you see no Scriptural evidence. Others do. Thank you... Gene |
