Mike;You have a point it is a general statement. I do see that wickedness had grown among humanity; which I believe also include the giants; though they are only referred to as males in Genesis 6:4.
June 24, 2012 at 2:52 pm#303898GeneBalthropParticipantTo All…….To me the clearest scriptures that describe Jesus return is found in
Luk 21:25……An there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars: and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; 26, Mens hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken, 27, and then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with power and great glory.,28, and when these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift up your heads for your redemption draws near.
Now notice what it says concerning the earth “the sea and the wave roaring” why? because the powers of heaven (the gravitational pulls on this earth which stabilizes it will be “shaken” and the earth will wobble through space and naturally the seas and waves will roar, maybe a hundred to three hundred foot wave will be produced by this, Isaiah tells us that the earth will go to and fro like a drunkard.
I believe there is going to be a giant asteroid or planet going to go through our galaxy and effect our solar system and disrupt our gravitational powers that lock the solar system together and cause these events to take place .
We will see it coming on this earth before it get here and all the earth will know it is coming and when the effects begin it will cause great panic on this earth as never seen sense it's creation, these waves could destory much of humanity living on this earth especially those living close to the coast lands at sea levels and whole cities could easily be destoryed. It certainly will cause some to have heart attacks becasue of the fear of this event coming on the earth. IMO
But we are told to look up and lifts up our heads; when we begin to see “THESE THINGS” come to pass for our redemption draws nigh >

Kerwin.We are all created by God but not all will be called the sons of God.He who follows God WILL BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD.
HE WHO DO NOT FOLLOW GOD WILL BE CALLED THE SONS OF THE DEVIL.
All the angels in heaven only; are called the sons of God also.

July 1, 2012 at 9:28 pm#304762mikeboll64BlockedHi Wakeup,
It seems to me that Satan was still included among the “sons of God” who presented themselves in Job 1 and 2. This was after he tempted Eve in the garden.
But that is a good question to ponder: Are the angels who have rebelled against God still “sons of God”?

Mike B.If you read that scripture very carefully,you will notice that it says:
Job 1:6. Now there was a day when the sons of God(Gods angels)came to present themselves before the Lord.SATAN WAS NOT INVITED TO THAT MEETING; he just came by when God asked him;(he was just roaming around heaven and earth).
where do you come from satan? and satan answered; from going to and fro the earth,and from walking up and down it.Do you noticed that satan was not suppose to be in that meeting,he just came past.That meeting was not solely to discus Job,but some other matters in heaven.
SAtan and his angels were created by God,but they have divorced them selves from the creator.
Children today can also divorce them selves from their parents; meaning they dont want to recognise their parents anymore.wakeup.
July 2, 2012 at 10:08 pm#304837mikeboll64BlockedI understand it as Satan came along with the other sons of God who all came to present themselves before their God. I don't see any reason to think Satan crashed a party he wasn't invited to.

Wakeup;My point is that some human beings are called sons of God and therefore the title does not always mean angels of God.
Since some men are called “sons of God” though they are descendants of Adam what does title “the son of man” mean in the same context?
July 2, 2012 at 11:52 pm#304844ProclaimerParticipantIn the last days, deception and false wonders will be so great that even if it were possible it would deceive all even the elect.
However, I am sure that we will save us is our faith, the word of God, and testimony in the truth, even when outward signs may try to convince us with lies.July 3, 2012 at 3:04 am#304873WakeupParticipantQuote (kerwin @ July 03 2012,09:48) Quote (Wakeup @ July 01 2012,09:14) Quote (kerwin @ June 23 2012,10:51) To all; It is an untruth to claim that all sons of God are angels.

September 1, 2012 at 11:20 am#311355ProclaimerParticipantNot sure if I have posted this one before, but there are some points worth thinking about. As an aside and related to another topic, he mentions that Greek was the main language due to Alexander the Great's conquests and that Hebrew was a religious language.
Back to the subject. I think the Nephilim is a subject that most Christians ignore, or know little about. Because it is tied into the days of Noah, it is certainly worth our attention, especially if we are the ones to see the last days.

1It happened after the sons of men had multiplied in those days, that daughters were born to them, elegant and beautiful.
2And when the angels, (3) the sons of heaven, beheld them, they became enamoured of them, saying to each other, Come, let us select for ourselves wives from the progeny of men, and let us beget children.
(3) An Aramaic text reads “Watchers” here (J.T. Milik, Aramaic Fragments of Qumran Cave 4 [Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1976], p. 167).
3Then their leader Samyaza said to them; I fear that you may perhaps be indisposed to the performance of this enterprise;
4And that I alone shall suffer for so grievous a crime.
5But they answered him and said; We all swear;
6And bind ourselves by mutual execrations, that we will not change our intention, but execute our projected undertaking.
7Then they swore all together, and all bound themselves by mutual execrations. Their whole number was two hundred, who descended upon Ardis, (4) which is the top of mount Armon.
(4) Upon Ardis. Or, “in the days of Jared” (R.H. Charles, ed. and trans., The Book of Enoch [Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1893], p. 63).
8That mountain therefore was called Armon, because they had sworn upon it, (5) and bound themselves by mutual execrations.
(5) Mt. Armon, or Mt. Hermon, derives its name from the Hebrew word herem, a curse (Charles, p. 63).
9These are the names of their chiefs: Samyaza, who was their leader, Urakabarameel, Akibeel, Tamiel, Ramuel, Danel, Azkeel, Saraknyal, Asael, Armers, Batraal, Anane, Zavebe, Samsaveel, Ertael, Turel, Yomyael, Arazyal. These were the prefects of the two hundred angels, and the remainder were all with them. (6)
(6) The Aramaic texts preserve an earlier list of names of these Watchers: Semihazah; Artqoph; Ramtel; Kokabel; Ramel; Danieal; Zeqiel; Baraqel; Asael; Hermoni; Matarel; Ananel; Stawel; Samsiel; Sahriel; Tummiel; Turiel; Yomiel; Yhaddiel (Milik, p. 151).
10Then they took wives, each choosing for himself; whom they began to approach, and with whom they cohabited; teaching them sorcery, incantations, and the dividing of roots and trees.
11And the women conceiving brought forth giants, (7)
(7) The Greek texts vary considerably from the Ethiopic text here. One Greek manuscript adds to this section, “And they [the women] bore to them [the Watchers] three races–first, the great giants. The giants brought forth [some say “slew”] the Naphelim, and the Naphelim brought forth [or “slew”] the Elioud. And they existed, increasing in power according to their greatness.” See the account in the Book of Jubilees.
12Whose stature was each three hundred cubits. These devoured all which the labor of men produced; until it became impossible to feed them;
13When they turned themselves against men, in order to devour them;
14And began to injure birds, beasts, reptiles, and fishes, to eat their flesh one after another, (8) and to drink their blood.
(8) Their flesh one after another. Or, “one another’s flesh.” R.H. Charles notes that this phrase may refer to the destruction of one class of giants by another (Charles, p. 65).
15Then the earth reproved the unrighteous.

Chapter 8
1Moreover Azazyel taught men to make swords, knives, shields, breastplates, the fabrication of mirrors, and the workmanship of bracelets and ornaments, the use of paint, the beautifying of the eyebrows, the use of stones of every valuable and select kind, and all sorts of dyes, so that the world became altered.
2Impiety increased; fornication multiplied; and they transgressed and corrupted all their ways.
3Amazarak taught all the sorcerers, and dividers of roots:
4Armers taught the solution of sorcery;
5Barkayal taught the observers of the stars, (9)
(9) Observers of the stars. Astrologers (Charles, p. 67).
6Akibeel taught signs;
7Tamiel taught astronomy;
8And Asaradel taught the motion of the moon,
9And men, being destroyed, cried out; and their voice reached to heaven.

Chapter 9
1Then Michael and Gabriel, Raphael, Suryal, and Uriel, looked down from heaven, and saw the quantity of blood which was shed on earth, and all the iniquity which was done upon it, and said one to another, It is the voice of their cries;
2The earth deprived of her children has cried even to the gate of heaven.
3And now to you, O you holy one of heaven, the souls of men complain, saying, Obtain Justice for us with (10) the Most High. Then they said to their Lord, the King, You are Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings. The throne of your glory is for ever and ever, and for ever and ever is your name sanctified and glorified. You are blessed and glorified.
(10) Obtain justice for us with. Literally, “Bring judgment to us from.” (Richard Laurence, ed. and trans., The Book of Enoch the Prophet [London: Kegan Paul, Trench & Co., 1883], p. 9).
4You have made all things; you possess power over all things; and all things are open and manifest before you. You behold all things, and nothing can be concealed from you.
5You have seen what Azazyel has done, how he has taught every species of iniquity upon earth, and has disclosed to the world all the secret things which are done in the heavens.
6Samyaza also has taught sorcery, to whom you have given authority over those who are associated with him. They have gone together to the daughters of men; have lain with them; have become polluted;
7And have discovered crimes (11) to them.
(11) Discovered crimes. Or, “revealed these sins” (Charles, p. 70).
8The women likewise have brought forth giants.
9Thus has the whole earth been filled with blood and with iniquity.
10And now behold the souls of those who are dead, cry out.
11And complain even to the gate of heaven.
12Their groaning ascends; nor can they escape from the unrighteousness which is committed on earth. You know all things, before they exist.
13You know these things, and what has been done by them; yet you do not speak to us.
14What on account of these things ought we to do to them?
THOSE HYBRIDS DIED IN THE FLOOD;AND THEIR SPIRITS ARE NOT ACCEPTED IN HEAVEN;AND THEY ARE THE EVIL SPIRITS ON EARTH.
THE FALLEN ANGELS SEE THEM AS INFERIOR TO THEM.

April 23, 2014 at 12:37 pm#379124ProclaimerParticipantYes according to Enoch they are the evil spirits. And some claim to be in contact with these spirits. And we know that many shall be deceived by doctrines of demons in the last days.
I would not be surprised at all if a great lie is espoused to the whole world regarding our origins. I even saw a video not long ago from Richard Dawkins where he accepted that humans could be the result of intelligent design. Seriously. But there was a catch. This designer is not God, but ET. He agrees it is possible that they left a genetic marker, a sort of signature in our DNA that points to them. He didn't say for sure this was true, but that it was a possible explanation as to how humanity came to exist.
Further, whenever I corner an Atheist regarding how something cannot come from nothing thereby proving that the first thing must be eternal, I usually get the lame response that it might not be God that created us, but Aliens, and they were created by Aliens and so on.
Such a lie could satisfy Atheists, and also those of other religions, and even weak Christians. If false signs appear to try and deceive even the Elect, then they have to be powerful delusions and if demons posed as ET and appeared or manifested themselves to humanity in great signs even frightening signs from the Heavens, then those who cling to the Bible will be thought of as those who are outmoded and should get with the facts.
Remember that the Devil is the one who sowed the tares. Thus the day may come where the so-called sower might reveal himself to the tares.
Jesus said, he did not come in his own name and he was rejected, yet another comes in his own name and him you shall receive.
April 23, 2014 at 12:39 pm#379125ProclaimerParticipantAlso interesting to note that the Book of Enoch was written for a far off generation and that is us. Further, as in the days of Noah, so it will be in that time. Perhaps this is orchestrated. We are living in or near those days, and this book is available to anyone with an Internet connection. Amazing considering there was a world wide hunt for this book during the Reformation.
