You need a church of goody-goodies.

Go find one.

No deep knowledge of truth needed. Just good intentions.
see there you again, just another dodge to not owning up to the responsibility of your actions again,

What church should I find pal, one that teaches angels have sexual intercourse and recreate, err no thanks pal, I would probably be walking into a church full of perverts.

I have a good church, I showed you a sermon from that church,.

I also have the church in me, and because you want to be the dominant teacher around here,.and the top dog, in your legend of a mind, you don't want to see it, or acknowledge it.
 
Being full of truth, is.

You can all of the truth in heaven and earth and it won't profit you a lick without love. Love doesn't vaunt itself, or diminish others

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:2

I tried loving you.
But, you kept rejecting the truth.

So now you are appealing to love?
Because, of the consequences of your own making?

When God spanks you?
Has He stopped loving you?
Learn what love means first...

Pro 29:23 A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

Mat 18:4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Mat 23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

Jas 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

Mat 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Look up "poor in spirit"

Pride will have no part in heaven.

The one true sign of receiving more grace.
That can not be missed?

God keeps supplying more and more sound doctrine teachings that will progress one into deeper and deeper understanding,..

The obvious denial of grace can be seen with those who will forever be stubbornly debating the same basic doctrine in error.

FWIW....
 
The BIG Question not asked out loud concerning Genesis 6:1-6?

Why were those angels able to reproduce sexually?

,,,,,,
The bible says "sons of God", not angels. That's an entirely different thing as well as another confusing subject. Note too "the sons of God" terminology is also found in Job. The "sons of God" must have been fleshly beings from who knows where.

Only one man is referred to in the scriptures as son of God and that is Adam. The rest of us are sons of Adam.

Luke 3:38
the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

And before anyone says what about Christ? He is the Son of God. :)
 
"The Bible interprets itself. As long as I am doing the interpreting."

That is the problem.

No, as long as the narrative is consistent. In the context of Gen. 6, any interpretation that renders "sons of God" as righteous descendants of Seth or any other good guys are inconsistent with the situation at the time, where everyone except Noah's family was extremely wicked and full of iniquities; in contrast, an interpretation that renders "sons of God" as evil divine beings is consistent with the use of the term in Ps. 82:6-7 and Job 1:6. That's why I meant by "sola scriptura", let the bible interpret itself.

There were 10 generations of righteous sons of God from Adam unto Noah. It was only at the very end that Noah was the only one left of that line. His father died two years before the flood and his grandfather died the year of the flood.

That is an unsubstantiated assumption in violation of the principle in Ez. 18:20. Righteousness is not in the genes, it cannot be passed down through bloodline, so is wickedness.

The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.

They are going to most likely keep repeating what they have been saying in hopes of wearing us out.
That's the only hope they have to work with.

All they have left? Is to play stupid, and repeat, repeat...repeat.
For anything they have offered has been refuted.

What some have yet to learn, is that God has man and angels situated in a battle that has been designed to humiliate the angelic enemies of God. And, the human enemies of God. To bring them to the point were they will have all their excuses for what they had wrongly chosen for their justification and defense, totally obliterated. The Lord has believers who have sound doctrine to be witnesses to the truth. Truth that those fallen angels want to bury.

We got to be sometimes careful....
For fallen angels seek to recruit sympathetic humans to try to counter the true narrative.

Life goes on....

grace and peace ...........

There was no command given to men to separate believers from unbelievers in marriage.

Besides, what the Hebrew was describing was not marriages. But, rather encounters of passionate sexuality.

Why do you choose the side you are on? Do you have an innate hatred for certain Christians?

The genealogy of the sons of God is listed in Genesis 5 and then 2 sentences later it calls them that. They were men of faith who were led by the spirit, ie, sons of God. The genealogy of the sons of men is listed in Genesis 4
 
Genesis 4 > genealogy of the sons of men
Genesis 4 > a son is born to Seth and men begin to call upon the name of YHWH
Genesis 5 > genealogy of the men who called upon the name of YHWH
Genesis 6 > men who called upon the name of YHWH are called the sons of God

Regeneration is not via the line of your family.
Isaac had two sons. Jacob and Esau.
Only one was a believer.

No believer was called a son of God until the New Creation in Christ burst onto the scene.

Luke 20:34-36

Jesus answered and said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; nor can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

@ChristRoseFromTheDead believes righteousness is hereditary.

If these guys are righteous why are they taking women on the basis of lustful desire?

Why did it not simply say?

"The sons of Seth took the daughters of men."

Makes no sense to not do it that way
The wording makes no sense, since Seth's line consisted of the children of men.

And, why suddenly the giants appeared?
Wouldn't Seth's line already have been giants if that were the case?
Since when does "breeding" of believers with an unbeliever produce a physically superior offspring?

Sloppy thinking!
