The Sethite theory commits a hermeneutical error called "illegitimate totality transfer": Every Hebrew occurrence of "bene elohim" refers to angels. Every Greek occurrence of "huios theou" refers to human believers. But since both phrases are translated into the same English words, people...

Here, montana123 is using "God" to refer to the Father, Who is the head of Christ. "God is the head of Christ" (1 Cor 11:3)

We can celebrate Christmas and Easter for the same reason Jesus celebrated Hanukkah (a non-Levitical holiday).

What translation are you quoting?

I like your direction with this...and I'd like to offer some clarification. The times of the Gentiles span from Nebuchadnezzar to Antichrist.

It is sinful for angels to take on a form with sex parts and use them.

I want to understand your position more clearly. Do you mind if I investigate your position with some questions?

You should not follow laws that lead you to sin. You have rights within the moral boundary of Scripture. You may not go beyond it. “It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it.” (Ecc 5:5) “Let your word be, ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond these is of evil.” (Matt...

You are obligated to do anything you sign your name to.

Ah, thank you

If "Christian essentials" = commandments from Jesus directly to Christians, then yes.

I don't know how to answer your question because I genuinely don't understand what you mean by "Christian essentials". Can you please help me understand what you mean by "Christian essentials'?

2 Thes 2:1-3 (1) "the coming of our Lord" and (2) "our gathering to Him" cannot happen until "the man of lawlessness" is revealed.

Which angels are you referring to? There are different kinds.

Ad Ignorantium Your question does not negate Jude's condemnation of angelic sexual sin.

Yes, they can have sex and procreate....and it's sinful. Jude 6 simply says that these angels are imprisoned, but does not specify the reason they were punished. However, the next verse in the passage says they will go to hell for the same reason as Sodom and Gomorrah: Fornication, illicit...

That's only part of the context. I showed you the full context in this post: “The angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day, just as Sodom and Gomorrha and the cities about...

Yes, I can read Greek and Hebrew. Jude says the angelic sex was sinful. You need to rethink your belief about sex in heaven, my friend. It is a twisted belief. Sex was given by God for married couples.

Yes, I do know what commentary you used. You quoted Meyrer's New Testament Commentary, written by Heinrich Meyer in 1884. As for me, I don't rely on commentaries because they are not authoritative. The Bible speaks for itself. Jude said the angels sinned sexually just as Sodom and Gomorrah and...

1. You are using a less reliable commentary (from the pre- Dead Sea Scrolls era). 2. Commentaries don't carry authority or settle the matter. Many commentaries say the exact opposite of the one you quoted. The passage literally compares the angels to the sinful cities, saying their sin was...
