…. at the first advent.Please see above. This argument doesn't necessarily follow. (Also, obviously Thessalonians 2 was written after Jesus came).
Lol. Yes. I thought it went without saying, but remembering how this conversation has gone, you are right to mention it!…. at the first advent.![]()
obviously it did not happen yetSo Jesus returning as the kings of kings and the lion of Juda defeating every enemy of the world has not already happened ?
oh so nobody has been saved then if that's the case.
obviously it did not happen yet
I agree with your conclusion, but I consider scripture to be more authoritative than my own opinion. Remember also Genesis 6. If angels and women can produce offspring, I don't consider it much different to consider the devil producing offspring.The purpose of this thread is to discuss, all tho I have posted it, it is by no means my responsibility,
Neither do i own this thread.
Neither is it a survey or a test you must pass
Having said this @Moses_Young and @selahsays you are both people I consider people i can talk to
So now why do I choose to have a view about the spiritual seed.
It's simple
If a child or any person is born of a physical seed of satan there is no way that person could ever be saved.
I dont view gen 6 as producing of spring from angels that's just it.I agree with your conclusion, but I consider scripture to be more authoritative than my own opinion. Remember also Genesis 6.

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.
Devils can't be saved. Jesus is our kinsman redeemer - fully man who died for men. Neither a demon nor an angel is a man, and any such offspring with man would not be fully man - it would (in my opinion) be beast, if not abomination.I dont view gen 6 as producing of spring from angels that's just it.
The above all argument says who ever believes in God shall be saved.
A physical seed of satan can never be saved
correct devils can't be savedDevils can't be saved. Jesus is our kinsman redeemer - fully man who died for men. Neither a demon nor an angel is a man, and any such offspring with man would not be fully man - it would (in my opinion) be beast, if not abomination.
James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
A creature that is part man and part fallen angel cannot be saved. That is where the demons came from, in my opinion. The spirits of part-man, part-angel nephilim destroyed in the flood.correct devils can't be saved
But people possessed by them can be.
But if a person is born of a physical devils seed could they be saved ?.
You could believe they could I guess.
The "sons of God" refers to angels. The intention (in my opinion) was to create a race of part-man, part-angel beings who could not be saved.But then you could also believe the sons of God can be people to in gen 6, and not angels.
I prefere to believe satan can't create anything other than a lying Miracle
the nephilim could have been just people to, they where said to be 9 feet tall. Angels are spiritual.A creature that is part man and part fallen angel cannot be saved. That is where the demons came from, in my opinion. The spirits of part-man, part-angel nephilim destroyed in the flood.

Spiritual and physical are closer than you think. Nonetheless, the spiritual beings can take physical form.the nephilim could have been just people to, they where said to be 9 feet tall. Angels are spiritual.
The situation in the bible wasn't a birth defect or mutation. It was caused by the "sons of God". Which everywhere else (plural), are considered angels - or in the New Testament, Christians, as when born again, we are born of God.There's a special medical term given to it to where people just keep on growing.
The bible doesn't state they couldn't digest.I know the story of angels eating food at Sodom to.
But it's just not possible they could digest the food.
This is possibly the root cause of why we disagree on so much. God does use symbolism in the bible. But usually, the symbolism is created by reference to something physical.Nope I don't believe all scriptures are literal I see a lot as symbolic
im sure the sons of God is referenced as being people somewhere, but I can't remember.Spiritual and physical are closer than you think. Nonetheless, the spiritual beings can take physical form.

I don't think we can know more than the bible says. But in my view, if fallen angels were taking wives (surely a kind of coerced rape, to my thinking), the angels would have had to do it in physical, human-appearing form at some point.im sure the sons of God is referenced as being people somewhere, but I can't remember.
But ok let's go with the narrative of a lot of people, when they say angels took up wife's for them self's.
Was it spiritual lust gained through possession of a person.
Or should we just assume they had physical sex with a physical body of there own.
And when they take up human form is that in spirit or flesh
I can't remember where the scripture is, but it says the angels where created. Or it says the angels where created, meaning all angels, which means they don't recreate.I don't think we can know more than the bible says. But in my view, if fallen angels were taking wives (surely a kind of coerced rape, to my thinking), the angels would have had to do it in physical, human-appearing form at some point.
sexual perversion is something the devil loves to dishonor the marriage with, my father would talk about that subject sometimes, he worked in church for years.I don't think we can know more than the bible says. But in my view, if fallen angels were taking wives (surely a kind of coerced rape, to my thinking), the angels would have had to do it in physical, human-appearing form at some point.
I don't think this logically follows. Man is created, and he reproduces according to his kind. Sure, Jesus tells us angels in heaven don't marry - but this isn't to talk about fallen angels, as talked about in Genesis 6.I can't remember where the scripture is, but it says the angels where created. Or it says the angels where created, meaning all angels, which means they don't recreate.
This passage is talking about men. Angels, demons etc. can't obtain forgiveness through Jesus' death, as Jesus didn't die for them.The scripture for today is who ever calls on the lord shall be saved.
So even if there is some validness to this Narrative of angels recreating, its not valid for today for humans.

So back to the topic at hand - the arguments thus far can't rule out the possibility of a physical offspring of Satan being talked about.
. ok let me explain this, if you knew the hour or day your master was to return, you may then wait only for that day, and only set your house in order on that day.…at any moment? We may not know the exact day, but the Lord has foretold us all things, and we know the season of the days of the end of this age.
Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
