Subject: The Sons of God in Genesis 6:1-4 |
Bible Note: Jesusman, I found some of your posts to be insightful, but not to the point of changing my position. No compelling evidence of Cain's line being that which is discussed. Contrivance to the Cain lineage isnt emphatic. Contrivance for the "angels" bent isnt emphatic either.(But more compelling than the Cain theory.) The "angel" theory helps with a few Hard to Reason - verses - as seen in Job, 2Pet, Jude etc. How does it help???? Well, It would answer my question I had about Gen6:4, "...in those days, and also afterward..." How could the line of Cain continue "afterward"? Or is "afterward" not a reference to the Wrath coming?? (Flood) The Sons of God being angels could return "afterward", they werent destroyed. Job 1, The worship/church meetings you suggest arent compelling either. The paragraphs designate references of time and of an occurance related only by WHOM it was about. (JOB) You never mentioned my reference to Satan answering the Lord from where he came... If he came FROM the earth...did he now come TO the earth "to present himself to the Lord"? I apologize if I havent read ALL of your posts on this subject in other areas of the Forum, but I have yet to hear your view on these few I have stated. Titus 1:9, "holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and CONVINCE (convict) those who contradict." If we aspire to be elders, then let us continue?? *shalom* the Disciple |
