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: God alone |
Bible Note: People, I think it would be very important to note the in all cases of angelohponies that the bodily dwelling angel was on a mission from God to accomplish the work of God for His glory. I have never found 1 exception to this observation. Since God is the creator of ALL things I would find it hard to believe that He gave fallen angels bodies to do that which is against His will and an abomination in His sight. To say that is to make God the agent and author of evil. I certainly would not want to say this about God the Holy One. Also, we must note that if fallen angels have creative power(the ability to make a body for themselves outside the will of God) then how could we know for certain that the resurrected Christ was indeeed from God and not a deceiving angel leading Christians astray? God has reserved many things to be His realm alone and creation is one of them along with salvation and judgement and many others. Also noteworthy on the subjects of fallen creatures(angels, demons)where do we receive any evidence other than a very questionable one in reference here that fallen creatures ever do anything other than to "possess" an unsaved human. When the creature is exorcised it does not kill either the evil spirit or the evil human as best as I can decipher from scripture. I do commend all of you for the efforts and time spent studying the Bible and do hope that this will be food for thought and not taken as a condemnation of anyone or of their thoughts....
