Angels And Demons: The Birth Of Giants. by MaxWellStores(op): 12:32am On Jul 31, 2015
There are angels, and there are demons; this is a present hour reality. Consciousness is an act of being able to mentally, and consistently, apply the truth (fact) revealed and understood. What do you understand to be true or false?

Genesis 6 and Hebrew 1:14 will help you.

Genesis 6; tells a of a fascinating story about angels, referred to in that chapter as "sons of God" and humans referred to as "daughters of men". The story tells of how angels "coupled" with humans to birth giants. Lol! Yeah, "hilarious!" you might add, but it does say so. Look it up for yourself. It sure sounds like one out of the many Greek folklores, right? hmmmm... there's more to that "folklore", folks

How was it possible for celestial beings to procreate with terrestrial beings, one might ask. "angels are spirits! they are not suppose to be seen! they are invisible! they can't be 'felt' or touched! In fact, they are suppose to go through objects!" These are some of the likely thoughts ramming your minds right now. If you have one or more of these thoughts, then you are really a human being and not a robot.

Angels do exist; and yes, they are spirits. But, they do have bodies - celestial bodies; that is, the ones created by God by which they live out their lives in the world outside of ours. The reason you cannot see them evert now and then is because, they live in a much higher realm than ours. your natural eyes cannot see them at will; but can see them if they choose to reveal themselves to you.

Let's study the story of Abraham and his 3 unannounced guest, narrated in Genesis 18. It was a bright and sunny day. the heat from the sun was at its peak and old papa Abraham sat just by the entrance of his tent cooling off. moments on, he sighted 3 men just a few yards away from his tent. he approached them and asked that they rested a while in his tent before proceeding further on their journey. they declined, but Abraham beckoned, and they agreed. he entertained them so well that, one of them asked after Sarah, his wife. he went further to tell Abraham that in 9 month time, that Sarah would become pregnant. Sarah, who so happened to be in the tent all the while, overheard the entire conversation between her hubby and the 3 strangers. she could because, the men all sat under a "sacred" mamre tree, just few yards from the tent.

Did Abraham know that they were angels at the word "get go"?

In the book of Hebrews 13:2 GNB, the Bible admonished that; remember to welcome strangers in your homes. there were some who did that and welcomed ANGELS WITHOUT KNOWING it.

That passage was addressed to the early Jewish Christians, and it also apply to today's Christians. Abraham, at first, didn't know they were messengers from God, he didn't know they were angels. but, he later got to know in the 9th and 10th verses. the Scriptures further prove that angels can "shape-shift" so to speak or assume the likeness of men, when it narrated the story of Lot and his household in a city called Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19. Part of that story said that the men of the city gathered at Lot's house and demanded that he released his guests to them so that they could have sex with them, forcefully! The Old Testament is laden with many of such encounters between angels and men. Also, in New Testament times, a story was told of how and angels broke Pope Peter out of prison (Acts 12).

Now that we have established the fact that angels can appear in the likeness of men, who then where those angels referred to in Genesis 6huh where they the devil and his angels thrown out of heavenhuh what ever became if them after the "Flood"huh These and many other mind boggling questions awaits us in the 'part e...the continuation' episode

In Genesis chapter 6, the Scriptures record what may appear to be a typical Hollywood blockbuster movie; angels, of their own will, descended to earth and married women of human species. this unimaginable, but true 'holy' matrimony resulted in the creation of special breed of humans called giants. I mean, real extra ordinarily huge human beings. these, were the same ones narrated in Greek, Roman, Scandinavian, and many other pre historian empires. the truth is, all these cultures share one similarity; the existence of forces greater than human beings.

In Jude 1:6 the bible says, remember the angels who did not stay within the limits of their proper authority, but abandoned their own dwelling place: they are bound with eternal chains in the darkness below where God is keeping them for that great Day on which they will be condemned.

Revelation 12 talks about a prophecy that went forth in heaven and how its inhabitants got wind of it. some were embittered for obvious reasons that could be perceived as right, but a war broke out and some inhabitants were flung out to earth. Satan and his angels were thrown out.

But, what beggars answer is: was it Satan and his gang the apostle Jude made reference tohuh the answer lies in Jude 1:6. it reads that some angels decided on their own to leave. they were not thrown out. they left for reasons best known to them. they didn't say within the limits if their celestial habitat, they abandoned it and left for earth. these angels left after the war. so, there were 2 sets of unspecified number of reengaged angels. the latter were the ones who married the daughters of men.

Demons: fallen angels in our midst.

Genesis 6, the Bible tells of how God dealt with the corrupt seeds of those angels. it records that; god used water to rid them off the face of the earth. the giants and other humans died, except for Noah, his household, the animals with them in the ark, and the fallen angels; yes!

The latter survived that flood. in the New Testament, the apostle Paul made mention of terrestrial bodies and celestial bodies. the fallen angels had celestial bodies; that is, bodies originally customized to live in the heavens. let me explain: the heavens are 7 celestial realms of the spirit; the heaven being the 7th and highest realm in which, where God lives. hell is a part of the 7th, and it is the lest. now, when the flood came, these fallen ones moved on the one of the 7 heavens; they moved to hell. after the flood, they returned. this partly explained why evil was not effectively erased from the earth; they returned and continued to operate, they were the ones behind Sodom and Gomorrah.

whatever became of these angels mentioned in Genesis 6?

Jude answered that question in the part b of Jude 1:6. he says, they are bound with eternal chains in the darkness below (hell), waiting judgement. you see, they were, and are still the ones in hell. after Jesus completed His works, all authority was given Him by the Father. Those angels were immediately restricted to hell, and not in this world, but Satan and his demons were only stripped of their powers: they were not restricted.

Revelation 12:12 and 1 peter 5:8 proves this assertion. They know they are powerless, and have limited time to live. they bitter question is: do you know he is powerless and desperate to have as many companions to be with him in hell?

The angels bound in hell still operate through their allies prowling the earth. are you aware of this? how can we escape these troublesome powerless, yet effective trouble makershuh

Hebrews 1: 14...the conclusion of this article.

yes, it is true that the Revelations of bishop john are playing out before our very eyes...however, we are not left comfortless.
The author of the book threw a very perplexing question to his audience when he asked, "what are the angels, then?" he went on to answer: "they are spirits who serve God and are sent by him to help those who are to receive salvation."

so, angels also still exist, and are not restricted from operating on earth, but are restricted from helping certain categories of humans. only those who have accepted the salvation of God that Christ brought are allowed to enjoy the services of these wonderful celestial entities. they are to working for, and with the heirs of salvation, only!

Are you an heir?
Have you accepted Christ Jesus??

Your knowledge or strength can't go against the devil and his guys; no way! they have been around even before the earth was formed. you need guys who know them, and can outmatch them. angels only take orders from the sons and daughters of their Maker, and not just everybody. this is a spiritual reality. everybody can go to a bank, but not everyone has an account or is recognised by the bank. there are those recognised, and you have to be among them.

Confess and be at peace with your Father (ROM 10:8-10)
God bless you as your share this message.

Demons are also believed to be humans that once lived on the earth in the preadamite world . Being spirits , they only died bodily their spirit still lives on earth . haven lost their bodies they desperately look for human bodies to occupy to express themselves. They manifest human attribute and characters. They have sex , express emotion etc .

Joagbaje, you are not far from the truth. But remember that God never created humans to be demons; no He didn't! They were created and introduced to replenish and guard the earth because of the chaotic state the earth was in, in Genesis 2.

The human "demons" you made mentioned were the fallen angels. The humans or giants "gigantes" Greek, they begat; could also be referred to as demons because, all through scriptures these Nephilims or Anaks were associated with extreme violence and barbaric acts. They died in the floods but, their fathers didn't.

They were the ones Jesus referred to when He talked about spirits who search out for human hosts to dwell in. These were the same you talked about, Mr Jo. The fallen angels have long been imprisoned, but the devil and his gang aren't. They are the ones still prowling the earth looking for ignorant folks to use. Paul tells us to be aware of the tricks of the devil.

Thanks for your add. It was enlighten to say the least.

How come demons took wives to themselves of the daughters of men who later bore giants in the earth? Whose body did they use? Is it still possible cause I've heard if women who got pregnant without the agency of a man.

Angels and Demons are once humans like us than lived on earth ... They probably must have been Raptured during their time.. Then after eating out of the tree of life they became eternal beings then afterwards sin and rebelled against God and were thrown out and became Devils and Demons...........

Hmmmm.. OK. If you say they were, then, so be it. However, I do not subscribe to your theory. I agree with what the Word says. Lastly, I will have to see what your blog's all about before giving my blessing to post my article on it.

Thank you.
