Timtofly, I would be interested in how you address the crushing of Satan under the feet of the believers in Romans 16:20. Paul promised this would "shortly" happen in their experience. How can Satan still be existing in this current generation if God "crushed" him under the believers' feet back in those days?
As far as the demonic blending with the human race, yes, that happened beginning with the Genesis 6 marriages of the celestial "sons of God" with human women, which created a hybrid race at that time. This hybrid race was entirely destroyed in the flood, but some further examples of it re-emerged again later, such as Goliath of Gath, those "giants" in the land of Canaan that Israel under Joshua's leadership was supposed to entirely destroy, etc. I believe the Greeks took these very real former examples of hybrid, demi-god creatures, and based their mythology on that.
But with the destruction of the entire Satanic realm in AD 70, this is no longer a threat that could afflict this world. God is incrementally working to purge various kinds of evil from this planet over the millennia.
Greek mythology is not about your close to gnostic views of half angel half human hybrids.
Angels have no capability to reproduce. Never have, never will. All the "sexual reproductive" references about Satan are figurative, and not literal.
Greek mythology is Satan's imagination at work. Not literal either.
Satan is the only literal being in human form as declared by Paul in 2 Thessalonians 2.
The defeat of Satan is ongoing. Satan being cast out of heaven is constantly ongoing, as in accusing the brethren night and day, non stop. Of course nothing he brings can stick. Because Jesus is the advocate on our behalf constantly reminding Satan what happened on the Cross.
While the crushing of Satan's head and the bruising of one's heal is figurative, it is an ongoing figurative phenomenon. 70AD was not a resolution of finality in regards to fallen angels and Satan's role in spiritual battles.
If you claim Revelation was pre 70AD, and the angels were bound then, how were they loosed before they were bound? Revelation claims they were bound, loosed in the 5th Trumpet, but never bound again. They will never be defeated nor do they even appear again. They have then been in the Lake of Fire since 70AD. There literally, according to preterist, are no rebellious angels anymore. They are all in the Lake of Fire. There is no coming out of the LOF.
Jude clears this up:
"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."
Most accept this happened before Adam and Eve disobeyed. Some claim it happened in Noah's day. Yet you claim it happened in 70AD?
When did the angels leave their ordained jobs? It is logical to think that Satan worked on the angels before humans. Satan was not even allowed to rebel nor visit earth for the first 1000 years of creation. He was not bound. He was not allowed to rebel period even if he had thoughts to that end.
So no point in stating Satan nor the angels rebelled until a few years, 30, a little season of time, longer prior to Adam's disobedience.
But the angels could talk amongst themselves, associate, form cliques or whatever angels do. There are constellations and groups of stars in the sky, no? It is not just a field of a single non stop pattern. Stars are in groups. God states:
"And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for
signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:"
This is the official job posting for the stars, angels. So having groups and cliques is not wrong. Having just an even arrangement with no patterns at all would be wrong. The angels job is to be signs in the sky, and they have been faithful for all of creation, at least 2/3rds of them have. I think that they even had choices about their arrangements. They just could not change their minds each day. That would make for some confusing signs to us humans below. Any changes would be gradual over time, which even that side affect would not thwart Satan's allowance to turn men's hearts away from God to science and the theory of evolution.
The whole point being that the angels that were bound would not be loosed until the end of Adam's punishment.
This coming and going of fallen angels does not make logical sense. These fallen angels have been bound and not even part of any spiritual battles going on. But that is a totally different subject.
Jude claims they have been bound in everlasting chains. 6000 years of everlasting. Not coming and going as needed.
Only after the Second Coming will they be loosed and end up in the Lake of Fire when their last attempt at heaven is thwarted. There is no longer any need after that for their existence. Yes angels are expendable like humans and even more so. They have far less accountability. Their main task just being a star and moving through the firmament. Limited opportunity to move to a more demanding position, and rather inconspicuous for the most part as there are trillions of them up there, and easily lost in the shuffle, not that humans pay them much attention for the most part any way. It is a thankless job, and the only reward is being an angel. Who knows, maybe in the next reality they will have more opportunity to shine?
Other than the fact there are the spiritual battles with which may be some sort of vacation time away from their night jobs. Who knows, could be a totally different set of angels, or not angels at all, but one can speculate a little?
