Bible Question:
Gen 6:2 Who are the sons of God and why, after they took human wives, did God limit the lives of humans to 120 years? Who are the Nephilim? Do they still exist? |
Bible Answer: You will hear many profess through utter ignorance that angels are the "sons of God", yet I put you in mind that Jesus Christ is the one and only begotten Son of God. Plain and simple: John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: ôå'êíïí teknon tek'-non From the base of G5098; a child (as produced): - child, daughter, son. This is one of the flaws of interpretation in the KJ. The word which was translated "sons" should have been translated "children." All who accept Jesus as savior are "sons" (CHILDREN) of God. GB |
