AMPLIFIED 2015	Genesis 6:4 There were Nephilim (men of stature, notorious men) on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God lived with the daughters of men, and they gave birth to their children. These were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown (great reputation, fame). [Num 13:33]

Subject: Can angels have human babies?

Bible Note: Dear Minister, Thank you for your input here. Malachi 2:10 reads,"Do we not all have one Father? Has not one God created us?"NKJ The capitalization of father is up for debate, it seems for the NASB is not capitalized. It is certainly true that we can have only one father. Jesus even, can not be the son of Joseph and the Son of God in my mind. There can only be one father and there is only one God as Malachi says, the Creator. So I agree, a son can produce a son but I can't agree that a son can produce a Son unless in a spiritual sense as Jesus discussed with the Pharisees about David, or in Jesus case when it was by the Holy Spirit. Not only then is Jesus the Son of Joseph in the spiritual sense but He is the Son of David, and the Son of Abraham per Matthew l:l in my mind. But back to Adam and the Creator. Adam was made out of the dust of the ground; created, made. He is not a Son. He was pronounced good. He was called Man. But we know he sinned and died spiritually. In a sense then, he bacame a man. But initially, he was made. Job 38:28 says, "Has the rain a father? Or who has begotten the drops of dew? From whose womb has come the ice? And the frost of heaven, who has given it birth?" In Adam's case also there didn't have to be a father, just a Creator.

In your references I didn't find any reference to angels or fallen angels. I found children of God, adopted sons of the spirit, and in my mind Daniel spoke of one like the Son of God. Matthew 4 spoke of His angels but not in reference to the sons of God. But we can certainly put our amen to Matthew 14:33 This is certainly God's Son.

Looking at 1 Cor 15:20, "But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep. For since by a man (fallen Adam) came death, by a man (the Man Jesus) also came the resurrection of the dead." Parenthesis mine The twenty second verse echoes this contrast of man and Man.

You said that due to the earthly laws he "was considered as" the son of Joseph. This could be another reading of "being supposedly the son of Joseph." But I believe that the correct reading of scripture would be "being, as was supposed, the Son of Joseph. Scripture translators have had no problem in calling Him the Son of David; why not the Son of Joseph and Son of Abraham, or even of the Man, Adam? The second Adam.
I don't think an earthly example carries any weight here. Later, Ray V.H.
