I have always believed this to be the case.
Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
However I have come to doubt this theory now as i've actually read the book of Enoch and it contradicts the Bible in some details, not to mention just doesn't "sound right" Doesn't sound like its from the spirit of God. I can discern that its not. You may disagree thats fine but that is where we must agree to disagree.
Jesus says: Matthew 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
How could angels coming down and fornicating with women work if this is the case?
Is there any credible alternative explanation? In the OT, "sons of God" most often means angels, doesn't it?
Help a brother out here.
Mat 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
The only thing that separates a man and a woman is the flesh.
The spirit and soul are the same.
When the saints put off the flesh and have a glorified body the gender is gone.
Which the glorified body is the same.
So they are like the angels in heaven because angels do not have a gender.
But they are known by masculine names because they are greater than humans.
But when a saint receives their glorified bodies they will be greater than the angels.
Which the angels desire to look in to the salvation of the saints.
Gen 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
Gen 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
Gen 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days;
and also after that,
when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
This does not mean that the giants were produced by the sons of God.
The giants were already there.
For if angels cannot have sex and reproduce children then it would not cause tall children.
Also the people were wiped out in the flood so there would go all the offspring.
But there were giants years later after the flood.
So Noah and his sons were probably giants.
Which does not mean they were excessively tall.
Goliath was 9 feet tall.
It seems that not only did they live longer but they were taller back then.
Abraham was 175 years old and died in a good old age.
Deu 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
King David was 70 years old when he died and had physical problems.
They all died of natural causes.
So they were taller, older, and stayed stronger longer back at the flood.
But with time it dwindled.
The giants were on earth before the sons of God produced children.
Gen 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Gen 6:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
Gen 6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
Nobody was following God except Noah.
The wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
The earth was filled with violence which they were constantly going at each other.
All flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth of love, forgiveness, and mercy.
Some people say the sons of God were natural men.
But that would of not produced the wickedness that was happening before the flood.
It did not happen prior to that them being that wicked.
The only way mankind could become that wicked is if the fallen angels interacted with mankind causing them to be highly wicked.
But I do not believe the fallen angels had sex with the women for that is not possible them being spiritual and no way to impregnate a woman.
If the fallen angels could produce children with women then these children would not have a human father.
Only Jesus and Adam are the only people that does not have a human father.
And it only can be that way.
Also only God has the ability to cause a virgin to be pregnant.
I believe the fallen angels possessed the men causing them to be wicked.
And the wicked men chose many wives in that wickedness.
And they had offspring that learned the ways of wickedness from their father.
Causing corruption throughout the earth.
For nobody was learning about the ways of God.
All they were doing is learning the ways of their fathers who were influenced by the devil.
And in time caused massive wickedness on earth.
And the children are the future.
It seems like the fallen angels intention was not to have sex with women who were fair for enjoyment.
But to corrupt humanity to be very wicked to where they would not acknowledge a God and to corrupt His ways on earth.
Because children are born innocent with no sin on their record until the age of accountability.
Which is why the Bible says their angels always behold the face of the Father for the little ones.
So the devils cannot influence the children at an early age to corrupt mankind in the future.
So they corrupted the men and when they had children they would be corrupted right away.
Instilling that in to the children voiding them of a choice to see different.
Causing the offspring to only see those wicked ways thinking that is what reality is about not being able to see good.
Which in the future caused the whole world to be corrupt.
Which the imaginations of their heart was evil continually.
Violence filled the earth.
And they corrupted God's ways on earth.
The fallen angels did interact with mankind to cause them to be that corrupt.
It is going to happen again that the fallen angels are going to influence mankind.
Which God is allowing so He can end sin on earth.
Which the devils will be able to influence mankind more than in the past.
Which they will be evil continually.
They will corrupt God's ways on earth having a system that exalts people.
The earth shall be filled with violence as they go against all people that oppose them.
1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
1Ti 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The new age movement that interprets the Bible and religions according to the occult and evolution, and people are going to evolve to be spiritual, and greater, and Jesus became an ascended master among others, and there is no personal God, but they honor the God of forces the power of the Cosmos, and the New Age Christ is the next world teacher.
The time will come that people will not want to hear the truth of the Bible but want to hear it according to the new age.
The New Age Christ will push the agenda of the new age for 3.5 years.
Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Rev 18:2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
The devils are cast to earth.
Rev 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
2Th 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
2Th 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
2Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Satan is off his leash symbolic as the beast ascending out of the bottomless pit.
The devils will deceive all people who do not love the truth to follow the antichrist.
They will have the nature of the devil.
These people will be worse than at the flood because the fallen angels were on a leash.
