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: Genesis 6 the "fallen ones" |
Bible Note: Nope, Genesis 6:2-6 is not speaking of fallen angels who had children with human women, and such a stance cannot be proven true through the use of Scripture. Also, angels do not have a "choice" like we do, since they are elect (2 Tim. 5:21) and they find the whole concept of salvation as something that is "curious" (1 Peter 1:12), not as something that they have access to, since 'fallen angels' are forever fixed in their place! (2 Peter 2:4, Jude 6, Matt. 8:29) - Nolan |
