And there is NO SUCH thing as "DEMONS" being called "the sons of GOD"!!! I love you John MacArthur, but you're wrong about this, and Scripture says that you are wrong: "For unto which of the angels said HE at any time, THOU ART MY SON, this day have I begotten THEE? And again, I will be to HIM A FATHER, and HE shall be to ME a SON? (Hebrews 1:5 KJV)"

Nephilim are Giants the offspring of the Sons of God in Genesis and the daughters of men. Sons of God in Genesis 6 and that appears several times throughout Job is the Hebrew word Bnei HaElohim. Bnei HaElohim and always means angelic beings and never ever used for Human Beings. You don’t get giants from normal human relationships!

MacArthur’s full explanation of the wickedness of man on the earth debilitating to demon possession of men and the sexual relations with women who willingly accepted these demonic unions makes the most logical Biblical sense. This wasn’t holy matrimony with holy angels who serve God and us. It obviously is the work of Satan’s deception as with Adam and Eve. This just didn’t happen with The Lord’s holy angelic host and giants appear. This was the height of evil and in context with the flood judgement. Review all the cross references everywhere.

The problem here is John's way of explaining what took place here. The angles were the sons of GOD and at the time of there transgression were still angles it was not until after leaving there habitation to sin and then to be put under the judgment of GOD and sentenced for their actions were they then referred to as Demons. So while today we can correctly reefer to them as demons at the time of their transgression this was not the case as they had yet to be charged and sentenced. There is more information on this entire subject derived from the finding of the dead sea scrolls primarily an article titled "On the Origin of Watchers" published in the Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha by Amar Annus of the University of Tartu · School of Theology and Religious Studies.

“You are my son” and “You are my son, today I have begotten you” (KJV) give two totally different meanings. Stopping in the middle of God’s sentence, to give it your own meaning, is the definition of taking it out of context. I might as well say God never said “You are…” to an angel and expect someone to take me seriously. This approach would put you at variance with the book of Job. Because Job 1:6 calls satan’s Angels, Sons of God and Job 38:7 calls God’s Angels, sons of God. Therefore Sons of God is a biblical title for angels. However no angel can be called the BEGOTTEN Son of God. Because Jesus is the ONLY begotten of the Father. And that’s clearly the message Hebrews 1:5 is seeking to convey.

I was looking for a definition and could only find: ~ Romans 8:14; "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." Can we know who were being led by the Spirit of God in Genesis 6? Genesis 6:3 defines the 'sons of God' in Genesis 6:2. ~ Genesis 6; (2) the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were attractive. And they took as their wives any they chose. (3) Then the LORD said, “My 'Spirit' shall not 'ABIDE' in 'MAN' forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.” So, God is removing His Spirit from 'angels'? NO, 'MAN'! Again, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." We know that: ~ Genesis 4:26; To Seth, to him also a son was born; and he called his name Enosh. 'THEN MEN BEGAN TO CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD.' Something about these marriages made MAN wicked and MAN was consumed with evil thoughts continually, and God was sorry He had made MAN, and decided to blot out MAN from the face of the earth. What is missing? Fallen angels producing Halfbreed demigods. Here is an example of what happened in Gen 6 and throughout the OT: ~ Deuteronomy 7:3-4; “Furthermore, you shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor shall you take their daughters for your sons. For they will turn your sons away from following Me to serve other gods; then the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you, and He will quickly destroy you.

The angel interpretation of Genesis 6:2 is by far the best, but if these fallen angels merely possessed humans in order to procreate with humans, that still leaves the question as to why their offspring would be anything other than human. And yet, there is also no reason to think that fallen angles could reproduce on their own. I think that's probably the most we can say for certain. Perhaps MacArthur is correct. Or perhaps the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim are the actual demons, and the fallen angels are simply held captive in eternal chains under gloomy darkness. But I can't be sure.

John MacArthur mentions 1 Corinthians 11:10 that women should cover their heads because of the angels, implying that angels will be unable to control their sexual desire if they see a woman's hair. This is nonsense, because these verses are all about submitting to God's structure of the proper authority. Note that the immediate context mentions that the wives head should be covered while 'PRAYING OR PROPHESYING' apparently all other times the angels are not aroused.. this is silly. This is what I believe this scripture is all about: First century church had the men and women separate with the women in the balconies. Women in defiance could remove their head covering without the husband noticing, but Paul is reminding them that angels are there. Best wishes and God Bless

Notice that the rebellion happened before Genesis 6 when that beautiful angel of light 'Lucifer', rebelled and became Satan tempting Eve in the garden.

Look in the genealogy of Jesus in Lukes gospel and you will see Adam called the son of God. Even in the legacy standard bible masters seminary just released. Although you might say in the text the word son isn’t used to describe Adam the translators saw the word son used from christ to Adam, they used son to bring out the flow of what was being said. Adam was the son of God. The Nephilim were men of old, men of renown. They weren’t half angel, half men! Not the offspring of angels and human women. In the epistle to the hebrews jesus had to be made in every way like his brethren, and the world and creation is not subject to angels but to Abrahams seed!!! You take this angels having sex with women to far and what if an angel had sex with a half angel half women, you get a three quarters angel one quarter woman offspring. It’s ridiculous! We are to stay away from controversial things, myths and old wives fables!! Angels are spirits, women flesh and blood!! The entire text is talking about men spreading out on the earth and they saw how beautiful mens daughters were and married whoever they wanted to, then God says He will not strive with men .

The Sons of God are not Angels. Also Luke 20:34 Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God. No human is a Son of God until the resurrection. Paul said they will be revealed, at the resurrection. You can not be a son of God being born of a man and woman that’s why we need to be reborn and adopted . Moses, who wrote Genesis never called a man a Son of God, that’s because Job says the sons of God are in heaven and Moses probably knew the book of Job because it’s the oldest book in the Bible. One cannot use the New Testament as context for Genesis 6. Job is that context.

Genesis 2:7 the Lord God forms His representative in their system. One Gospel: Gospel (GOOD ANGEL) of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever.

The sons of God are the divine spiritual council. Some spirits rebelled in Genesis 6 and took for themselves daughters of men. They were spiritual beings. Angel is title for a spiritual being that acts as a messenger. Divine spiritual beings can take human form as is seen in Genesis where spiritual beings come down and speak with Abraham while he is with Yahweh. The unclean spirits are the demons, which resulted from the nephilim being wiped out in the flood. Demons were not involved in Genesis 6 they were the result, post flood. Unclean spirits.

In this case it refers to fallen angels as they took and had relations with earthly women. Their progeny are called the Nephilim (fallen ones). Demons are the disembodied spirits of the nephilim. In fact whenever hebrew people talked about demons, they referred to them as Tamu-Nefal. Dead nephilim. If you still don't get it, then explain how the good line of Seth, marrying the bad line of Cain gave birth to giants. Kissing cousins don't make giants, DNA 101. The whole issue with the union of fallen angels and earthly women was to corrupt the man's seed thus preventing the birth of Jesus. Hence the flood to start anew.

Jobs sons were "sons of man" not sons of God. BUT all who are "in Christ" past (all the way to Adam) present and future are ADOPTED sons (children) of God. Also, after Jesus conquered death, fallen angels relinquished their right to be in the presence of God and accuse the sons of men on earth.

That being said we are to trust in no man for all have sinned and have fallen short so red flags should go up when anyone is speaking especially if there's not a bible in his hand, or if he's holding a message bible..lol... This channel knows the following that Macarthur has and that what he says holds weight in the Christian community so by saying according to this man the assumption is it's probably a good interpretation. In most cases especially this one I believe that assumption to be a good one. Check out Dr Michael Heiser's work " The Unseen Realm" to get some more background as to why this is the proper interpretation. Dr Heiser is a biblical scholar who has also taught as a professor at the University level and I believe is proficient in reading and interpreting something like ten or more ancient languages and one of his primary goals is to make it as easy as possible for the laymen to read the bible. He also worked for logos bible software for many years doing bible interpretation. That doesn't mean he can't be wrong about things it's just a lot less likely.

Why is it wrong? You can’t get away from the Bible telling you who the sons of God are in Job. You have to use pretzel logic to have the sons of God as anything else but heavenly creatures. The Bible never calls men bene Elohim. John MacArthur is correct, during the time of Jesus the Jewish clergy all believed that the Nephilim came from Angels procreating with men. The whole Seth line idea didn’t start up until Augustine who tried to strip any spiritual aspect of the Bible and replace it with human philosophy. It’s heretical because Paul clearly says that these are the things we are at war with. These heavenly powers. When one has to use numerous passages , cherry picked, to formulate the Seth line idea, when the clear plane reading of the text tells you what happened. You can’t get around it.

Jesus also said that which is born of spirit is spirit, that which is born of flesh is flesh! He said the latter ti Nicodemus! It is stated falsely that the only ones called sons of God are angels, this is also a false statement. In lukes gospel in the geneology adam is said to be the son of God! In genesis 6 the context of the verses is that it is talking about men. When men began to spread out upon the earth! Men! The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful and married whoever they wanted!! Remember angels don’t marry!! Also when jesus cast unclean spirits out no one saw the spirits. Then God says that he would not always strive with men. He wouldn’t strive with them because they were marrying whoever and no doubt however many of the daughters of men they wanted. They were sinning because jesus said about marriage that God had commanded one man to take one woman in marriage! It was common in those early years of men that men had multiple wives, look at Abraham, jacob etc. The whole context of genesis 6 is God commenting on mans bad behavior.

@@dalelinebarger8439 Yes, well stated Dale, I would have thought that there would be absolute clarity in scriptures to propose such nonsense as angels procreating with women and creating giant offspring, but there is so much more proof that this is Godly men that have been enticed by pretty women idolators and have abandoned their faith in God. This happens over and over again in the Old Testament. Here are just some of the examples: ~ Deuteronomy 7:3-4; Furthermore, you shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor shall you take their daughters for your sons. For they will turn your sons away from following Me to serve other gods; Then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and He will quickly destroy you. ~ Nehemiah 13:25; You are not to give your daughters in marriage to their sons, nor are you to take their daughters in marriage for your sons or for yourselves. ~ Exodus 34:16; ...and you take some of his daughters for your sons and his daughters play the harlot with their gods, and his daughters would play the prostitute with their gods and cause your sons also to play the prostitute with their gods. ~ Joshua 23:12&16; ...and intermarry with them so that you associate with them and they with you & then the anger of the Lord will burn against you, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land which He has given you. ~ 1 Kings 11:2; ...& you shall not associate with them, neither shall they associate with you for they will surely turn your heart away after their gods. Solomon held fast to these in love. ~ Ezra 9:14; ...shall we again break thy commandments and intermarry with the peoples who commit these abominations? Would You not be angry with us to the point of destruction, until there is no remnant nor any who escape? ~ 1 Kings 11:4; For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.

Well- it’s for this reason I felt like the book of Enoch was suppressed and not canonized though I believe the early church was familiar with it, Jesus and Jude’s audience both. I think it’s because the watchers and their offspring come off as pitiful in the narrative. I reckon that this pity might cause some to wonder after them perhaps pity them and ultimately serve them. I can see that. But they’re not created by God. The nephelim are not of God yet theyre of spirit beings. The desire of the enemy to corrupt the bloodlines of man makes sense with scripture because of the prophecy in genesis 3 that the seed of the woman would bruise the seed of the serpent. Of course the devil has always tried to corrupt the bloodline, or kill male babies, time and time again, to snuff out the messiah. So the corruption that I feel is mentioned in genesis 6 which is so bad it required a global flood tracks with scripture.

Since Adam was 130 when Seth was born, as "another seed instead of Abel" after Cain had slain Abel, Eve and then Adam after her, were probably 80 years of age before they partook of the forbidden tree of the knowledge of good and evil. During that time they were sinless, and they probably already had five or six generations of children and grandchildren, all of whom would also have been sinless. That's who the "son's of God" were. And some of them had migrated to the "land of Nod," where Cain found his wife.

One of the entire passage makes any sense if you think sons of God are the righteous seed of Seth. By the time. Noah came around, his family was the only righteous worth saving. Also, Cain's seed was obviously wiped out at the flood so how could the Nephilim be around after the flood if the Nephilim were the seed of Cain mixing with Seth's? Also why would the mixing of Cain and Seth's lineage create special men of renowned?

Piecing the puzzle, angels (not the already fallen who rebelled in heaven and were cast down to the earth along with Lucifer or Satan) can be correctly interpreted to be in Scriptural context, the sons of God. Sent from the presence of God at the direction of the Holy Spirit and assigned earthly missions. They can self-materialise into bodily form clothed and without angelic wings. (Hebrews 13:2) They are also free to wilfully defy God and sin. (Why would the redeemed be judging angels? 1 Corinthians 6:3) But in order for them to take for themselves wives and produce offspring, they would as a consequence of their sin be banished on earth and eventually lose their handsome appearance and become grotesque. Their offspring (the Nephilim or Giants) were the mighty men of renown, (Genesis 6:4) part human and part (now fallen) angel. The sons of God referred to in Job 1:6 and 2:1 are not the rebellious angels but the obedient (and therefore sinless) angels reporting back to God the outcome of the assignments they had been given on earth. So the sons of God in Genesis 6:4, taken in Scriptural context, cannot be referring to the descendants of Seth (or kings or any kind of human nobility.) Adam was called the son of God (Luke 3:38) because he was the father of the human race and God was his Creator. Jesus Christ is (uniquely) the only begotten Son of God and in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. (Colossians 1:19; 2:9) God the Son. Amen!

If any of this is true, you must ask why did God suspend His natural law enacted in Genesis 1? All creation (animals, bugs, plants all creatures) reproduce after their own kind. Even if you surmise it must be demon possession, there is still only human DNA. If you can somehow solve this problem, then why did all mankind continuously pursue evil, except Noah? Why is God grieved in His heart only toward mankind when it was the angels fault? If the Nephilim were 450 ft tall angel/human hybrid that were on the earth in those days & AFTERWARDS, does that suggest that God allowed angels to procreate with women again after the flood?

@@larrymoore2571 (Some) of the sons of God (angels on assignment on earth) "came in unto the daughters of men" and produced offspring "Nephilim or giants" perhaps several metres tall. (450 feet tall???) Pre-flood not all of mankind was affected by this "human hybridism". Non of the royal lineage from Adam to Christ were affected. Methuselah (8th from Adam) the last of the pre-flood patriarchs (besides Noah) died 1656 AM "and then came the flood" the same year. All of the descendants of Cain perished in the Great Deluge along with all of the humanoid hybrids. AND AFTERWARDS. So post flood there were still giants (perhaps not quite as tall anymore since no-one born after the Flood lived hundreds of years anymore either.) Whether these giants (some of the descendants of the Philistines like Goliath for example) were also a product of the sons of God having "further relations" with the daughters of men is not clear. But what is clear is that the post flood race of giants were all wiped out under King David's rule. (Chronicles 20.)

@@iankirk9097 There are problems with your assessment of Genesis 6. #1. Moses did not write the book of Job, but he wrote the Pentateuch. Moses has the freedom to express his thoughts independent of Job's author. Sons of the Lord your God (bene Yehovah Elohim) is a term that Moses used in Deuteronomy 14:1 ("You are sons of the LORD your God") to refer to God's people. This would be the exact same text absent 'the Lord your'. Every time Moses refers to angels, he uses the term Malak. #2. God would have to suspend the natural law He imposed in Genesis 1 that all creation must reproduce after their own kind even plants. Why would God actively change natural law and allow this abomination? #3. Did God destroy the world through flood waters because of giant hybrid offspring of angels/women or because (gen 5) "wickedness of mankind was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually". Gen 6:12: And God looked on the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for 'humanity' (not fallen angels, but humanity) had corrupted its way upon the earth. #4. What happened from Gen 4:26 "Then people began to call upon the name of the LORD" to Gen 7:1 Then the LORD said to Noah, “Enter the ark, you and all your household, 'FOR YOU ALONE' I have seen to be righteous before Me in this generation. God's people that had called upon the name of the Lord, saw that pagan women (daughters of men) were beautiful, and they gave in to the lust of the eyes and the lust of the flesh to the point of rejecting God and turning to idolatry. This scenario happened continuously throughout the Old Testament. Here are a few verses: ~ Deuteronomy 7:3-4; Furthermore, you shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor shall you take their daughters for your sons. For they will turn your sons away from following Me to serve other gods; Then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and He will quickly destroy you. ~ Nehemiah 13:25; You are not to give your daughters in marriage to their sons, nor are you to take their daughters in marriage for your sons or for yourselves. ~ Exodus 34:16; ...and you take some of his daughters for your sons and his daughters play the harlot with their gods, and his daughters would play the prostitute with their gods and cause your sons also to play the prostitute with their gods. ~ Joshua 23:12&16; ...and intermarry with them so that you associate with them and they with you & then the anger of the Lord will burn against you, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land which He has given you. ~ 1 Kings 11:2; ...& you shall not associate with them, neither shall they associate with you for they will surely turn your heart away after their gods. Solomon held fast to these in love. ~ Ezra 9:14; ...shall we again break thy commandments and intermarry with the peoples who commit these abominations? Would You not be angry with us to the point of destruction, until there is no remnant nor any who escape? ~ 1 Kings 11:4; For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father. #5. The Apocrypha books are not in the canonized Bible because at some point they distort scripture and are not a credible source. The sufficiency of the Bible is all we need. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for rebuke, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man or woman of God may be 'FULLY' capable, equipped for 'EVERY' good work. The 450 ft. tall giant comment comes from the book of Enoch 7:2 that says all the giants were 300 cubits tall (450 feet). As for giants like Goliath, Robert Wadlow of NYC was only 7" shorter than Goliath, his gigantism was caused by a pituitary tumor. There are reasonable explanations for Gen 6, and I think the answers are found in scripture.

(Colossians 2:9) Jesus revealed God as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and mankind is made in the image of God, body, soul and spirit, a triune being. The Nephilim existed before the flood, and afterwards, (Genesis 6:4) but since Jesus conquered and overcame death in His Resurrection, it then became impossible for fallen angels to impregnate the daughters of men. That's because Satan, who is still the prince of this world, has lost SOME of his power and authority over the earth as since Pentecost (Acts 2) the Holy Spirit has been restraining him, but in the Great tribulation (3.5 years before the triumphant and victorious return of King Jesus) the Holy Spirit will un-restrain Satan and he will war with the Great Tribulation (post raptured) Saints while at the same time God will unleash His wrath.
