Is Woman Not From God by youngfocus(m): 12:11pm On Aug 22, 2018
Please I don't understand this bible passage,is the bible trying to say woman are not from God directly,both man are woman are born same way, but the bible  make reference to man, as son of God, but woman as daughter of man

  Bible scholars  in the house shared more light on this.

The sons of God in the passage are literally sons of God. It’s not a reference to human males. The story was composed before Jews became monotheistic. So God had sons who were lesser gods (like Wonder Woman and Ogun). Those lesser gods could impregnate women, and when they did, their children were giants. Simple.

The sons of God in that scripture means THE FALLEN ANGELS OF GOD .
These fallen Angels are now referred to as demons and evil spirit beings.



Genesis 6:1-2 KJV
And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
[2] That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

For better understanding , read the verse 1 ( one ) .

It says "men began to multiply " rather than "the sons of God began to multiply "

You are right.but I don't think demons are fallen angels.
Fallen Angels are principalities while demons are there foot soldiers.
2.fallen Angels don't posses humans
That's the job of demons.
3.Fallen Angels where created directly by God,while demons are the result of fallen angels mating with daughters of men.

SONS OF GOD MEANS SONS OF GOD. IT'S VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD, NO NEED TO MEANDER HERE. HOW DO YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH THE SOLE AIM OF MISLEADING PEOPLE? TRUTH IS TRUTH AND MYTH IS MYTH.

MOST OF THE STORIES IN THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN BY PEOPLE WHO WORSHIPPED MULTIPLE GODS. ANCIENT PEOPLE WERE POLYTHEISTIC AND THE GODS THEY BELIEVED HAD CHILDREN.

THE BIBLE IS A COLLECTION OF TALES FROM DIFFERENT CULTURES. NOT INSPIRED BY ANYTHING DIVINE.

Even if he believed in the existence of a creator, his creator would be far superior to the creator character presented in the book of Genesis.

Is there any God greater than the God of the Bible?

The writers were were ancient people. They lived in a time of dictatorship, slavery, superstition and brutality. The God they created was limited by their worldview. They imagined God as a man who answered to no one, demanded absolute obedience and constant praise, inflicted brutal tortures on those who dared to oppose him and their families, and condoned slavery, because that was the kind of rulership that they were used to. A modern God would be more like Obama or Trudeau. There would be elections in heaven but he would always win without cheating.

This is more like it. God of old testament is really nothing to write home about. Ruthless, vengeful and merciless...

ACTS23:8(The Sadducees say that there is no resurrection,and that there are neither ANGELS nor SPIRITS but the Pharisees believe all these things.)
9There was a great uproar, and some of the teachers of the law who were Pharisees stood up and argued vigorously. “We find nothing wrong with this man,”they said. “What if a SPIRIT or an ANGEL has spoken to him?”
Acts 23:8-9 proves that the demons are not fallen angels.In these two verses we see that angels and spirits are classified as two different kinds of beings. Even the ancient Jewish Pharisees put demons and angels into separate categories.If we read the four Gospels carefully, we will discover that the demons are also called evil spirits.Not only the angels are spirits; demons also are spirits.

The last sentence of your comments, made it clear who the word "SPIRIT" could be referring to in Act 23:8-9 since demons are also spirits.

Demons are in fact falling Angels, but because they have been cast away and reserved for eternal bound of chain and darkness from the presence of God, they are completely malevolent and wicked spirits.

The Bible teaches that the Creator himself is a Spirit and that his first creations were spirits. (John 4:24; Hebrews 1:13, 14) Further, the Bible mentions wicked spirits, sometimes referring to them as demons. (1 Corinthians 10:20, 21; James 2:19) But it does not teach that God created demons. Neither angels sleeping with daughters of men can result to creation of demons since they are immortal spirit beings too. Who, then, are they, and how did they come to exist?

When God created spirit creatures, he made them free moral agents, able to choose for themselves whether to do good or bad. Sadly, after the creation of humankind, an undisclosed number of angels chose to do bad by rebelling against God.

The first and most infamous spirit to rebel became Satan. “He did not stand fast in the truth,” said Jesus Christ. (John 8:44) What moved Satan to turn against God? He began to covet the worship that belongs exclusively to the Creator, and then he acted on that desire by setting himself up as a rival god. In this way he made himself “Satan,” a word that means “resister.” Centuries later, prior to the Flood of Noah’s day, other angels joined Satan, forsaking their heavenly position to materialize in human form and dwell on earth. (Genesis 6:1-4; James 1:13-15) When the Flood occurred, the materialized “angels that sinned” apparently returned to the spirit realm. But trust, they no longer deserve to be in God's presence just like Satan they were cast away(2 Peter 2:4; Genesis 7:17-24) In time, they came to be called demons/devils.​ read Deuteronomy 32:17; Mark 1:34.

Who then created this lower spirits? Because I believe all spirit beings were God's creation. The Devils/Falling angels/Demons can manipulate and cause disruption they can live inside a host as well.

This is a good question.
I am not a Bible scholar, but I have noticed that the particular scriptural reference that you highlighted is grossly misinterpreted throughout Christendom.

Both male and female originate from God.

Genesis 1:27 King James Version (KJV)
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.



The "sons of God" meant the people who were raised in the belief of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. These were the people who did not worship false gods.
The "daughters of men" referred to the women who did not worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob...but rather the false gods.
God's people were not to mix with the unbelievers because of the disastrous results that would occur.

However, many "sons of God" did exactly what they were commanded "not" to do.
(Ex. Samson/Delilah and Solomon/700 wives and 300 concubines who worshipped false gods. etc.)

Spirits (which include both Holy angels and the "fallen" angels) cannot "mate", have sex with, or impregnate human beings.
That is a false teaching...and unfortunately tons of people believe in that "doctrine".

The only example in the Bible where we had a (miracle conception without sexual activity) was the case of Mary, mother of Jesus (Matthew 1:18-25 KJV).
