Interesting. What about the legendary monsters and beasts that some of these figures are alleged to have fought against as part of their fame? Creatures like the hydra, medusa, minotaur, etc... were they all some manner of Nephilim as well, with more monstrous features?

That could well be. That depends on ones view of mythology. Although I presented mythological view from the Bible viewpoint, personally I do not subscribe to it. I simply believe it crept into ancient cultures based upon their views of the heavens when the solar system was in a time of upheaval. What they observed in the heavens they simply related to things they could understand. They took thier myths of demi-gods and combined them with the events they saw within the heavens. And yes, one does not even need to add religion to understand the myths that were past civilizations entire cultures. Without gods, the peoples of the past would have no culture. I simply believe they witnessed planets being ejected from the sun in a time of planetary upheaval. Which is why all the gods of mythology were born, ruled for a time and then went away. But the Bible does tell us not to accept these gods as real, but merely events in the heavens (space).

I no more accept all religious beliefs than I accept all scientific claims. Each part must be based upon relating evidence. There is just as much error in modern science as there is error in modern religious beliefs. I no more believe man can explain God, then man can explain the universe at this point in time.

I suppose their brothers and sisters were dragons and unicorns?

Is dads kind of craziness allowed on this forum? I thought it was the creation & evolution forum not the crazies forum.


The Bible nowhere says unicorns or dragons.

Deuteronomy 33:17

"His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh."

From the Hebrew Re'em.

Re'em - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Simply the extinct aurochs.

Aurochs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Job 39:9-12 KJV - Will the unicorn be willing to serve - Bible Gateway

Clearly a breed of cattle that could not be domesticated, and so went extinct.

As for dragon, that simply means great beast.

Isaiah 27:1

"In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea."

So called a serpent.

The Hebrew word Tannin simply means monster, sea serpent, serpent, etc. Not a winged flying creature as in mythology.

Strong's Hebrew: 8577. תַּ×[bless and do not curse]ִּין (tannin) -- serpent, dragon, sea monster

Dear Dad, They were the moving creatures which were destined to look exactly like Humans, but were not the descendants of Adam, the first Human. That's because God (Elohim-the Trinity) CREATED them and brought them forth from the water on the 5th Day. Genesis 1:21

Cain married one of these people since there were NO other humans for him to marry, unless you can show us where Cain married an Angel which you CANNOT. Genesis 6:4 prophecies that the same thing will happen again and it does when Noah's grandsons, like Cain, had NO other humans to marry on our Earth. I have shown you this before and you could not refute it. All you can seem to do is mock God's Holy Word and call His innocent sons, names. I don't think He will approve of your bias. God Bless you.

In Love,
Aman

Actually it is probably the main interpretation of sons of god, that they were angels.

Dear Readers, A good case of the Blind leading the Blind Scripturally. Neither of these people can tell us HOW angels married human women and produced children since Angels don't marry according to Jesus Mar 12:25 and the fallen Angels are bound in chains under the darkness, until Judgment, according to Jud 1:6 And 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.

The sons of God were created and brought forth from the water on the 5th Day according to Genesis 1:21, and Dad knows it. This verse tells us that "EVERY living creature that moveth" came forth on that Day or Age. This agrees with the discoveries of Science that a creature which looked exactly like Humans evolved from the common ancestor of Apes over the past 6 million years. God calls these people the sons of God.

These people were NOT Human since they did not have the superior intelligence which ONLY God and Adam had, Genesis 3:22, but were made to be sexually compatible with Humans who are a Special Creation by the Hands of Jesus, and destined to have dominion over every other living creature. Genesis 1:28

The False notion that the sons of God were Angels has been refuted Scripturally. Unless someone can refute this view, Scripturally, they must claim that its their "belief" or "religion" since it has been refuted Scripturally. God Bless you.

In Love,
Aman

I'm sure you mean well. But it is pretty basic why there are so many denominations and interpretations.


I John 2:20
"But you have an anointing from the Holy One"

I John 2:27
"the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you"

John 10:27
"My sheep hear My voice"


It is one thing to follow Him and His anointing that teaches, and it is another thing to lean on your own intellect to read letters, words, and sentences in a physical book. It is one thing to follow men or denominations, but another thing to be His sheep and follow Him, even through His anointing. The less mature can and do at times wrongly divide the Scriptures. It is not good to wrongly divide/interpret the Word. If they who do such be followers of Him they will be corrected and will mature in how to Walk with Him. May His grace be with you.

The old testament can be hard to interpret properly. There is a need to have reference and context as to those times and meanings. You have to be careful with how you interpret it and seek additional support. It can be easy to misinterpret a word and throw the whole context of a passage out to mean something else. Just because its the bible doesn't mean the people who wrote it didn't have an element of their own perspective when it came to relaying the stories and scriptures.

That was in reference to a man with seven wives. Angels do not have relationships like that apparently. But that doesn't rule out many things..sex for example. Less than several wives for example...etc etc.
and the fallen Angels are bound in chains under the darkness, until Judgment,
Not all. Obviously. Some come from the pit and from space in the end times.

No. I say that is crazy talk. Man was created on the 5th day.

This verse tells us that "EVERY living creature that moveth" came forth

Context...it is talking about the sea.
... Humans evolved from the common ancestor of Apes over the past 6 million years. God calls these people the sons of God.


Utter rubbish. So we see you do not believe in creation of man.
These people were NOT Human since they did not have the superior intelligence which ONLY God and Adam had
What a load of cult doodoo.
, Genesis 3:22, but were made to be sexually compatible with Humans

Dear Heissonear, Amen. It's been some 37 years ago when I first began telling people of what Genesis is actually saying. I have now been online for more than 17 years and NO one has refuted me Scripturally and I have never had ANY problem with ANY Bible believing Christian.

My opponants are atheists, agnostics, and phonies, who wear the garments of Religionists. If that doesn't mature you, I don't know how you can be challenged. Try it and you will learn to lean on God's Holy Word for it NEVER lets you down. God Bless you.

In Love,
Aman

Dear Dad, Totally False since it is referring to a woman whose husband died and his brother married her and he died and so on for 7 brothers. The question was who would be her husband in Heaven. Jesus answered and said they would be like the Angels who do not marry (copulate) nor are given in marriage.

and the fallen Angels are bound in chains under the darkness, until Judgment,

Not all. Obviously. Some come from the pit and from space in the end times.

Chapter and verse, please.
The sons of God were created and brought forth from the water on the 5th Day according to Genesis 1:21, and Dad knows it.
No. I say that is crazy talk. Man was created on the 5th day.

Totally False. What you are probably trying to say is that man was created on the 6th Day, Gen 1:27 which is correct. Adam was FORMED on the 3rd Day Gen 2:7 but was NOT created in God's Image until the 6th Day. This is simple to understand IF you realize that Eve was created in God's Image at the SAME time as Adam and she wasn't made until the 6th Day. Genesis 2:22 To be "created in God's Image" is to be created Spiritually in Christ, since Jesus is the Image of the invisible Spirit of God.
This verse tells us that "EVERY living creature that moveth" came forth
Context...it is talking about the sea.

False, since the word "sea" isn't mentioned. Whales are NOT fish and birds are not flying fish. You really don't know what it says. Do you?
... Humans evolved from the common ancestor of Apes over the past 6 million years. God calls these people the sons of God.
Utter rubbish. So we see you do not believe in creation of man.

The creation of man is when the Trinity agrees and makes a New Christian, an Eternal Being. Gen 1:26 says Let US make man in our Image. Jesus also agrees and tells us HOW this happens in Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever;

Notice that it takes the agreement of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit to make a person alive forevermore.

These people were NOT Human since they did not have the superior intelligence which ONLY God and Adam had
What a load of cult doodoo.

False accusation since I support what I write with Scripture and you cannot support your view with God's Holy Word. Want to try?
, Genesis 3:22, but were made to be sexually compatible with Humans
Gross bestiality claim.

Sounds to me like the Trinity wanted everyone to have a free choice to believe His account, or the account of ancient goat herders who lived thousands of years before Science. Some follow this goat herder thinking even today, even after they are shown that it does NOT agree scripturally, scientifically, nor historically. Such people are called Religionists, since they preach their beliefs instead of what is actually written. Sound familiar? God Bless you.

In Love,
Aman

In other words sequential multiple marriages. Apparently angel relationships are not that way.

No they all are not. Nya nya.
Totally False. What you are probably trying to say is that man was created on the 6th Day, Gen 1:27 which is correct. Adam was FORMED on the 3rd Day Gen 2:7 but was NOT created in God's Image until the 6th Day.

Ha. So God let a pile of dirt shaped like a man sit in a garden for 3 days!!!!!? Kind of like a lifeless zombie. Chillingly ignorant.
This is simple to understand IF you realize that Eve was created in God's Image at the SAME time as Adam and she wasn't made until the 6th Day.

I know when man and woman were made. God created them male and female and that was on day 6.


She was taken from the rib the same day.
False, since the word "sea" isn't mentioned. Whales are NOT fish and birds are not flying fish. You really don't know what it says. Do you?

So whales lived where, in a fishbowl, or puddle!!!!?

The creation of man is when the Trinity agrees and makes a New Christian, an Eternal Being. Gen 1:26 says Let US make man in our Image.

You make it sound like they were arguing, but finally agreed on a day you pick!!!!

Dear Dad, Correct, since Jesus tells us that Angels do NOT marry, but you don't believe Him. Do you?

and the fallen Angels are bound in chains under the darkness, until Judgment,

No they all are not. Nya nya.

I ask for your Scriptural support, but I see you have NONE. So much for making it up as you go.
Totally False. What you are probably trying to say is that man was created on the 6th Day, Gen 1:27 which is correct. Adam was FORMED on the 3rd Day Gen 2:7 but was NOT created in God's Image until the 6th Day.
Ha. So God let a pile of dirt shaped like a man sit in a garden for 3 days!!!!!? Kind of like a lifeless zombie. Chillingly ignorant.

What is ignorant is the fact that you have been told God's Truth from Scripture, but you refuse to believe God's Holy Word since it goes against your own made up personal, unsupported, Religion. Adam lived for some 13 Billion years BEFORE Eve was made. Genesis 2:4-7


This is simple to understand IF you realize that Eve was created in God's Image at the SAME time as Adam and she wasn't made until the 6th Day.
I know when man and woman were made. God created them male and female and that was on day 6.

False. Adam was made the 3rd Day. Gen 2:4-7 Eve was made the 6th Day. Genesis 2:22 BOTH Adam and Eve were "CREATED in God's Image" or Born AGAIN Spiritually AFTER Cain killed Abel. Genesis 5:1-2

She was taken from the rib the same day.

Amen. Today remains the 6th Creative Day or Age since God is STILL creating mankind (Hebrew-Adam) in His Image or in Christ. Genesis 1:27
If you don't believe me, then tell us WHY all the Churches teach that it is NOT too late to be created a new Christian in Christ. In order to refute me, you MUST refute ALL Christian teaching. We will NOT advance to the Prophecy of Genesis 1:28-31 until AFTER Jesus returns to this Planet. Isaiah 11 Let's see you refute that Truth.
False, since the word "sea" isn't mentioned. Whales are NOT fish and birds are not flying fish. You really don't know what it says. Do you?
So whales lived where, in a fishbowl, or puddle!!!!?

You claimed it was Sea Creatures which were made the 5th Day. I was just showing you that you are refuted by what is actually written. IOW, you are telling us of your unsupported religious view which CANNOT be supported Scripturally. This is a pattern which you keep repeating over and over.
The creation of man is when the Trinity agrees and makes a New Christian, an Eternal Being. Gen 1:26 says Let US make man in our Image.
You make it sound like they were arguing, but finally agreed on a day you pick!!!!

Again, you make up silly notions instead of believing what is actually written. Have you ever actually read the Bible or just some "scholars" view of it? God Bless you.

Today I realised that for the last ten or so years, I've been lying when I typed LOL. I thought I was LOLing, but I really hadn't experienced the true belly ache and eye watering of a true LOL.

Today, I LOL'd with truth and integrity.

For that I have to thank you, Aman777.

Dear Sayre, Genesis 2:4-7 tells us that man was "formed of the dust of the ground" on the 3rd Day BEFORE plants, rain, and the first Stars of our Cosmos, which were not formed until the 4th Day. Genesis 1:16. Are you calling God a Liar? Where were you when the first light came forth into our Universe, some 13 billion years ago? Adam was made BEFORE that. I am sorry you didn't know that. God Bless you.

Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 contradict each other if you read them as literal scientific creation stories (yes, plural, there are two).

In fact, I don't even read them as creation stories. I think they are theodicies. They are there to teach spiritual truths, not to draw conclusions about the biological history of mankind. Man fell, God will redeem... that is the message of Genesis 1 and 2.

Science reveals His handiwork... and what you are saying is so totally and utterly in conflict with science that I don't even know where to start with a refutation.

How do you think Adam survived for 13 billion years? And on what planet was he on for those first 13 billion years? What planet are you on?

Dear Sayre, Then you must believe that God made an error when He authored the first two chapters of the Bible? It's your interpretation which is incorrect. Here is the sequence:

Genesis chapter 1 is the complete History of God's 6 Days, including future events at the end of the present 6th Day
The first 3 verses of Genesis 2 speaks of a future time when ALL the host of heaven, which includes humans, are in heaven.

At Genesis 2:4, we are taken BACK to the 3rd Day, the Day the Earth was made, and additional details are shown. This is TRUE throughout the rest of the Bible since Scripture shows us DETAILS of the 7 Days of God's Creation written in the first 34 verses of God's Holy Word.

We live today at Genesis 1:27 since God is STILL creating mankind (Adam) in His Image or in Christ. We will not advance to the Prophecy of Genesis 1:28-31 until AFTER Jesus returns to this Earth. Isaiah 11

In fact, I don't even read them as creation stories. I think they are theodicies. They are there to teach spiritual truths, not to draw conclusions about the biological history of mankind. Man fell, God will redeem... that is the message of Genesis 1 and 2.

Sorry, but God's Holy Word is the Literal Truth. Viewing Scripture as allegory or fiction is UnBelief.

Science reveals His handiwork... and what you are saying is so totally and utterly in conflict with science that I don't even know where to start with a refutation.

God's Word agrees in EVERY way with EVERY discovery of Science and History IF you have the proper interpretation.

How do you think Adam survived for 13 billion years? And on what planet was he on for those first 13 billion years? What planet are you on?

You must remember that Adam was made in the likeness of God, which is Jesus. Adam was like we will be in Heaven until he sinned. He lived in a perfect body surrounded by a Shekinah Glory or Brightness, which was exactly like that of YHWH/Jesus.

Since Today remains the 6th Creative Day and Adam was made the 3rd Day, just AFTER the Big Bang of our Cosmos, Adam lived for some 13 Billion years BEFORE Eve was made on the present 6th Day, as I posted. This shows that each of God's Days or Ages is some 4.5 Billion years in length in man's time. God Bless you.

Adam's world was totally dissolved in the Flood. We live today in the 2nd Universe or Heaven, which will be burned. We live on Planet Earth, which is the 3rd Rock from the Sun. Peter speaks of the world (Kosmos) that THEN WAS, being overflowed with water and it perishied. (Greek, destroyed, totally) ll Peter 3:3-7 God Bless you.

In Love,
Aman
