Subject: is the seed non-human? |
Bible Note: Mark, Was this seed intermingling with the human race after the days of Noah? If it can be said that Noah and his family were pure-blood humans (which I believe to be the case), then we may infer that the celestial/human crossbreeds were fully removed from the earth during the flood. The gene pool of the human species got a new start and celestial blood had not intermingled with our kind since. Certainly the introduction of angel-spawn or demon-spawn, within the gene pool of the human race, would unsettle the war between the angels and the demons, swaying such a war over to one side or the other. I suggest that this type of crossbreeding does not enhance us, but rather diminishes us, as a species. The blood becomes weakened and not strengthened. A purebreed human race will become greater in it's future immortal state than what the angelic/demonic celestials ever were. The corruption of the human gene pool would, however, thwart the future dominance of an immortal humanity, causing either the angels or the demons to hold permament sway. Scripture infers that these celestial races will yet be subjected in the immortal regeneration of humanity. No greater or lesser angel is completely pure. - 1 Corinthians 6 2 Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life? (NAS95) Hebrews 2 6 But one has testified somewhere, saying, "WHAT IS MAN, THAT YOU REMEMBER HIM? OR THE SON OF MAN, THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM? 7 "YOU HAVE MADE HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS; YOU HAVE CROWNED HIM WITH GLORY AND HONOR, AND HAVE APPOINTED HIM OVER THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS; 8 YOU HAVE PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET." For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him. 9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone. (NAS95) Job 4 18 'He puts no trust even in His servants; And against His angels He charges error. (NAS95) Job 15 15 "Behold, He puts no trust in His holy ones, And the heavens are not pure in His sight; (NAS95) - Blessings, Reighnskye |
