Very simply this: The Bible in Genesis there was no moral law. Man could do whatever he wanted. But God revealed himself unto some of these people starting in Genesis: Genesis 4 verse 26 (KJV) " And to SETH, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos (Enoch).THEN BEGAN MEN TO CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD". There, forward, are your "SONS OF GOD"..

Yes, sons of God speak of two different kinds of creations. The angels who did not leave their first place of habitation who have no body, no DNA, the 2/3. And those who do have a body of flesh ,DNA needed to procreate as born again . Which has nothing to do with human procreation but rather new creatures.

The portion of scriptures (Genesis 6) is simply not to be unevenly yoked with natural man identified by daughter of men or children of men especially at the time period involving the spiritual seed of Christ that was passed down through those elected to salvation.

Demons are not led by the Spirit of Christ, the Holy, anointing Ghost of God.

Taking away the fact that angels have no visible, literal, fleshly body can destroy the gospel. But works to create science fiction movies as a source of faith coming from one’s own imagination as in the skies the limit, is still just pretend. ..

No DNA... no be fruitful and multiply. It can’t be both as if we could serve two masters. The flesh as that seen and the Spirit, as that never seen.

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

There are 3 "Heavens". our sky, the galaxy, and the abode of God the Father. These individuals did not come from the 3rd heaven. Angels do not have genitalia and are male and female only in the sense of their personalities, same as we will be someday. So no they don't reproduce. Now we have been all over our skies so that rules ours out......God has the ability to make other men on other planets don't you think? If we can think it, it is possible.

''the daughters of men were fair to behold [exceedingly beautiful] and the sons of God came and lay with them and their offspring were great and mighty men in the land''. Angels don't have genders, so i'm asking; who's got an idea who these ones are

The phrase 'sons of God' occurs only 3 other places in the OT, all in Job; and in all 3 the reference is to angelic beings.

Therefore I believe that the Genesis reference is to fallen angels who rebelled with Satan.

Also there is a clear difference between “of Elohim” and “of men”;
i have always believed this to be the most simple common sense answer to this. i never understood why people try so hard to spin Gen 6 into something else.

If the sons of God were referring to people,and some say those that were following God,then if they were good then why would they become wicked to start mingling with the evil people,and whether they were considered good or not,how did it produce such wicked people,that were men of old,men of reknown,and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually,if it is sexual activity between people that they have been doing for years.

Also why were they considered sons of God,as apart from the rest of humanity,for the sons of God came unto them.

Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
Job 38:5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Job 38:6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
Job 38:7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Here the sons of God are referred to as the angels.

Before the flood every imagination of the thoughts of their heart was only evil continually,so God flooded the earth,so it appears that there was no reversing their sinful situation,but how could that happen if it was only from people alone not being influenced by an evil spirit.

At the beast kingdom when they take the mark of the beast there is no reversing their sinful situation,so God has to put an end to their kingdom,and end this sin business on earth.

Jesus said that the end time will be like the days of Noah,where it is business as usual not giving heed to what the saints are preaching,and what the Bible says concerning the end time,to get right with God for in the future He is going to put down all who follow the beast kingdom.

The reason that they are so wicked is because the devils will be cast to earth,and will deceive all people that do not love God to follow the beast kingdom,which is the strong delusion God will send them.

That seems like it is the only way that people can be so wicked is if the devils deceive them,which at the beast kingdom God is allowing it.

When Satan is cast in to the bottomless pit for 1000 years there is peace on earth.

God warns us of the new age movement.
The new age movement is the future for this sinful world.
The new age movement will pave the way to the beast kingdom.
The man of sin has the traits of the new age movement.
When the transgressors are come to the full,then war will break out in heaven,and the devils will be cast to earth,which the earth becomes the habitation of devils,and Satan appears as the beast,and deceives all people that do not love God to follow the beast kingdom,and then God will end this sin business on earth.

So sons of God being people alone does not make sense,but it makes sense if it is the fallen angels.

But how did they have sex with the women,and have children,when only Jesus was born of a virgin,and only God has the power to cause a child to come about from the woman alone.

They must of possessed the men,and had sex with the women through the men,and they became very wicked,and their offspring became wicked.

Therefore I believe that the Genesis reference is to fallen angels who rebelled with Satan.
Psalm 82:6


Orthodox Jewish Bible


6 I have said, elohim ye are; and all of you are Bnei HaElyon.

7
But ye shall die like adam, and fall like one of the sarim (princes).

NIV
6 “I said, ‘You are “gods”;
you are all sons of the Most High.’
7 But you will die like mere mortals;
you will fall like every other ruler.”

Besides declaring there is no single entity that is god, but rather we are gods?
groups been doing that long before todays new age group.

evil has been around forever. whats different in todays age? 100 MILLION have died in wars last 100 yerars, we are defiantly better at killing each other now than ever, but thats not the new agers. scientist think they have found the "god" particle, again not new agers, all the natural food provided by the Most High has been replaced by hybrid food because man thinks they can do better than the Almighty.

if new agers are guilty of anything its being a distraction while the real enemies cause destruction in this world

Hey everyone,

I agree with Lucy-P: Angels are sexless. The do not go against God's will (even the fallen demons tremble). The references in Job are clearly misunderstood. Otherwise you would have to throw out many other scriptures.

ie Matt. 22:30: For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
Hebrews 1:5: For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

Angels are not referred to as sons.

Yours, Deade

For those who accept as Scripture teaches, that the universe we inhabit was created by God willing it to be so and speaking it into existence through His Word, then it follows that it is no stretch to believe that God is quite capable of causing a woman to conceive without the use of a man and a single sperm from among countless others. However, it seems you are suggesting that angels have the power to manifest as humans aside from the will of God. To say God can manifest and/or incarnate is one thing; to suggest a fallen angel (demons) can is quite another.
Happy New Year Magenta........Of Course God is in control. He restrains Satan and the fallen angels, demons from all war on mankind. All creations Man, Beast, Angel, Devil Demon and on and on bows to HIS control.

Having said that, Sons of God are Angels and in this case fallen angels. As Adam was a direct creation of God, the Angels including Satan are direct creations of God as well.

Seth and Able are the Sons of MAN as you are the Daughter of MAN. (there are many problems with the seth and cain theory that has been debunks a long time ago.)

Jesus tells us that If we believe in His Gospel then we will have everlasting life. We will be able to see HIM as HE IS. From all indications spoken of in the Bible, His body is a body of Light which would go along way to explain why time has NO effect against Him. Unlike Man who is by birth a three dimensional being, God is a multi-dimensionable being where time and other complex properties have NO effect.

Rem, the Bible tells us these fallen angels are held Far below Hades(Hell) and sealed until Judgement day.

We are in the days of Noah, were sin is rampant, Genetic engineering is so simple a layman can change the color of His cats liter's hair color, etc

Make no mistake, the rise of Giants will happen again and will be a large factor during the next World War which is just about to start.

in fact, US soldier's killed a Red Headed Giant in Afganistan only after He had killed and eaten an entire squad. He was flown away by a Chopper, probably to a gov. facility in order to re-create them in the next military???????// This was recreated by one of the Chopper pilots who flew them away.


Hope you also have a Blessed coming year.

Of course not. Some things are spirit taught. You figure this out and you'll know where I got my info.

So if I talk to someone else, who also claims to be "spirit taught", and they give INFORMATION WHICH IS THE OPPOSITE OF YOURS...
who should I believe?

In the books of Acts, the Bereans searched the scripture to determine which doctrines were true.
Do you think that's a good plan?

Jesus said no marriage. What else would reproductive organs be for? It doesn't seem like God's style to make something that has no function. But I am only speculating.

Sometimes I am reminded of the the things which we humans have done regarding genetic engineering and cloning.
I speculate (and it's pure conjecture on my part), how long have fallen angels had to experiment in areas where they shouldn't?
Look at some of the diabolical things we humans have done. Splitting the atom! How much more could a group of
fallen angels achieve? I think we would probably rather NOT know!

So if Nephilim are offspring of fallen angels as Genesis 6 seems to indicate, does it automatically follow that they had to
have started out with their own genitals? If some Angels abandoned their proper dwelling as Jude 1:6 indicates what does it mean?

Further conjecture on my part so please don't tell me off, I'm not trying to establish a definite belief.
But perhaps Angelic beings were not made to procreate? Perhaps SOME of them were jealous of Mankind because God gave that ability to us?
Perhaps they found a way when they shouldn't have despite not starting out with the necessary errrr equipment?

I speculate (and it's pure conjecture on my part), how long have fallen angels had to experiment in areas where they shouldn't?
Look at some of the diabolical things we humans have done. Splitting the atom! How much more could a group of
fallen angels achieve? I think we would probably rather NOT know!

So if Nephilim are offspring of fallen angels as Genesis 6 seems to indicate, does it automatically follow that they had to
have started out with their own genitals? If some Angels abandoned their proper dwelling as Jude 1:6 indicates what does it mean?

Further conjecture on my part so please don't tell me off, I'm not trying to establish a definite belief.
But perhaps Angelic beings were not made to procreate? Perhaps SOME of them were jealous of Mankind because God gave that ability to us?
Perhaps they found a way when they shouldn't have despite not starting out with the necessary errrr equipment?
"So if..."

I wasn't addressing, or making, some long speculative argument.

I was only addressing one very specific point.
I was only addressing one small point... just one.

* Does the Bible say angels have no genitals?

That's all.
That's all I brought up.

Nope. All angels are men, thus they cannot marry each other. We will be as the angels in heaven. There will be no marriage in heaven.

i thought Jesus taught Sons of the Most High were neither male or female?
