Subject: The Sons of God in Genesis 6:1-4 |
Bible Note: Jesusman, In Hebrews...again, "For to which of the angels did He ever say: You are my Son, today I have begotten You." vs 5a "I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son." vs 5b Then, the rest of that CHAPTER continues to refer to JESUS....as HIS SON. I didnt even see where it says we are His sons. (But I do believe we are His sons, by the grafting into as a vine, and by inheritance, see Heb 2) The chapter itself in context declares Jesus Exalted above the angels. Then in Chapter 2, (cf. Ps 8:1-9) the Son was made lower than the angels.... So it doesnt strengthen your point. It acturally declares your point moot. I say moot, because, you state that Hebrews 1 is showing that we are sons of God like Jesus, when actually we arent. And NOR are the angels the SON of God. This is the context of the chapter...who the SON of God is....not who are the sons of God. And to answer your question about providing a verse to substantiate angels being sons OF God...not Gods SONS... I pointed out the angels being sons of God in JOB 1...but it seems your still on earth worshiping with Job in the presence of God and Satan happens to be there too.?? I truly would like to hear A response to what ive posted a few times about that.... If GOD is asking Satan "from where do you come?"..and Satan says, "from going to and fro FROM THE EARTH... and back and forth ON IT." Where are the sons of God and Satan with them presenting themselves to God ...AT ??? Did satan LEAVE earth to ... GO TO earth to present himself before the LORD? And your retort of the ball being in my court to provide a verse that says angels are called Gods sons...would be as bad as me saying the same of giving me a verse that says Cains lineage is the daughters of men. And I will say again, the BENT of the angels being sons of God is much more compelling and provocative ...and reasons with scripture on other angelic issues much more soundly ...then the line of Cain theory. BUT HEY....we are probably wrong about it. We only KNOW IN PART...so please let us not presume to be emphatic on issues based on what the WORD doesnt say emphatically. (yes, that was redundant..lol) *shalom* D |
