Bible Note: Brent, still, you'll have to admit that those passages in Job leave little room for doubt that the "sons of God" are angels, at least in those passages. It seems viable that the same meaning would be taken from the same Hebrew word in Genesis. I believe fallen angels did cohabitate with the daughters of men, but, I do NOT believe of "sensationalistic tales about holding down women who are being violently raped by invisible demons while they and thier cronies are casting the demon out." In fact, I really don't know what that means. If you disagree with my previous assertion, please answer the questions and statements in it. Don't put words in my mouth. Thanks, and God bless you and yours. |
