Good morning/evening everyone! I was reading the Holy Bible over at biblegateway.com and found this verse to be confusing:

Genesis 6:1-2, 4 - Passage[bless and do not curse]Lookup - New International Version - BibleGateway.com

It says the "sons of God" and then mentions the "daughters of humans.. Can anyone explain to me what exactly the "sons of God" are? Are they angels?
wow!!!!!!!!!!! we are just learning about this!!!!!! I have a video I want you to see about this. My pastor, Mike Hoggard out of Missouri can tell you this one. Give me a sec I'm gonna try to find it for you. It will blow your mind!! wow!:clap:^_^

Fallen Angels mixing and mingling with humans. That is what the scripture is about. The masons do play a role in this issue. You will just have to watch them Asvin and if you like, I can get you the info to email my pastor. He will answer your questions.

I have also wondered about Genesis 6: 1-4

My bible which is the Quest Study Bible, NIV states:

Some suggest they were supernatural beings such as angels. Other say they were godly men descended from Seth who married sinful women descended from Cain. A better interpretation may be that they were human rulers who emerged as heads of city-states in the ancient Middle East and flaunted their power by having large harems. Ruler and judges are sometimes called gods or God in the Hebrew text.

Very simply, we were always taught the sons of God were angels, (but this conflicts with what the RCC tells us about the anatomy of angels.) The Daughters of Man are just women. Their offspring (titans) Were exceedingly wicked and were dividing up the earth and it's inhabitants for themselves. Some have speculated this is where we get our Greek, roman and "other" gods from. These demi gods/Titans were the primary reason for the flood.

I have no idea what Freemasonary has to do with this, if anything. I do know that in some cases it has been unspeakably nasty stuff.

Anyway, Genesis 6 gets to the reason for the flood, a well as many lesser harsh Judgments of the OT. "All flesh had been corrupted." The pertinent part here is, what does Jesus refer to when He says that as the days of Noah were, it'll be like that when He returns?

So the angels and ordinary women produced titans? Is it because angels are good and women are sinful that their offspring were titans? Does the bible mention this?

That there will be only one man like Noah in the future when the world will be evil and corrupt?

I think the Bible is showing the opposite, that those angels were fallen and corrupted mankind as well as the animals.

Well we aren't told explicitly, so I can't say you're supposition here is wrong. It doesn't seem reasonable to me though. (Noah and his ark is still a "type" for us to learn from, definitely pertaining to Salvation)

On the more gory side, we could draw the connection between movies and even cartoons de-sensitizing kids to demonic intervention, so we would think it's not such a big deal. The hybrids had unquenchable appetites, were cannibals, and loved to kill. The great tribulation could be nasty indeed ... also note how perfectly the current ET phenomenon fits the same description as fallen angels?

Does the bible mention anything about the future of these "titans"? How they will be judged, their salvation, if they exist now? I would love to know your opinion! :)

Here ya go:

"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 1 Peter 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. The like figure whereunto [even] baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:"

Also:

2 Peter 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;"


The part about all this that I find uncomfortable and scary, and how this connects to Jesus' words I mentioned, is after the flood God uses Israel to kill off this same hybrid seed yet again. IOW, a global flood wasn't necessary and He could nip it in the bud in a single generation, BUT - how did these unholy angels get back at it? (Yes I just summed up a LOT of Scripture, but when you look at offensively harsh Judgments in the OT, you see this is exactly what G-d was doing.)
