    The Nephilim is the name given to the giant men that were the offspring of the mating with women by the angels which took on human form. Genesis 6:2 says: (2) God’s sons saw that men’s daughters were beautiful, and they took any that they wanted for themselves as wives. Note it says "God's...

    So what do you think the expression "came in to " means? As in Genesis 6:4 (WEB): (4) The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when God’s sons came in to men’s daughters and had children with them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. which...

    Angels can take on perfect human form, so that we can't tell them apart from normal people. As Pauls said, Hebrews 13:2 (WEB): (2) Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it. God allowed the angels to take on human form...

    The angels took on human form in order to breed with humans: Genesis 6:2-4 (WEB): (2) God’s sons saw that men’s daughters were beautiful, and they took any that they wanted for themselves as wives. (3) Yahweh said, “My Spirit will not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; so his...

    You're making assumptions. It does not say that Noah was the ONLY person who had been uncorrupted by the cross breeding by the sons of God (fallen angels); it just says that he was perfect (without blemish) in his generations (genealogy), and that he walked with God. If you want to make...

    Joseph and Benjamin – Jesus and his Church

    [Continuing...] The name Asenath, the wife that Pharaoh (God) gave to Joseph (Jesus), means "gift of the sun-god", and Asenath’s father’s name, Potipherah, means “he whom the sun-god gave”. The name that the Pharaoh gave Joseph, Zaphnathpaaneah, has been variously interpreted as, “treasury of...

    Joseph and Benjamin – Jesus and his Church

    There are no replies or comments to Ben Abraham's thread ANI YOSEF! (I am Joseph) Messianic symbolism here? GEN 44:17-47:27, so I thought I would post this article that I wrote 20 years ago, which also comments on the Messianic symbolism of the story of Joseph: With careful study of the...

    Resurrection on earth

    It does not make sense that time would come to an end on the Earth, especially if people are going to have everlasting life on Earth. Modern translations more correctly translate Revelation 10:6 as there being no more delay, e.g. (WEB): (6) and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    I don't see any topic being banned in the "Terms and rules". Why would anyone want to ban discussing their beliefs? 1 Peter 3:15 (WEB): (15) But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    Although, of course, he will have a new name when we join him in heaven: Revelation 3:12 (WEB): (12) He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will go out from there no more. I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    That's not what the Bible says. Genesis 2 (WEB): (9) Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. (16) Yahweh God commanded the...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    Semantics. ;) If you're at someone's side then you are side by side with them. Stephen said (Acts 7:56), "Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!" I think most people would interpret that to mean that he was side by side with God. As Paul...

    God drove them out of the garden to separate them from the tree of life - so that they would not be able to live forever. It was nothing to do with separating Adam and Eve from God.

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    That is illogical. Your dad was not a father and simultaneously his own only begotten son. Your dad begat you, and you are his son, but your dad is not you.

    Well explained. That convinces me (not!). :rolleyes:

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    It was a garden (park) that God planted for Adam to live in (Genesis 2:8,15). It wasn't where God lived. God would occasionally visit and walk with Adam and Eve, so only then were they in His presence. God drove them out of the garden because: Genesis 3 (WEB): (22) Yahweh God said, “Behold...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    The Cambridge Bible notes says: which is in heaven] These words are omitted in the best MSS. If they are retained, the meaning is ‘Whose proper home is heaven.’ Or the Greek participle may be the imperfect tense (comp. Joh_6:62, Joh_9:25, Joh_17:5), which was in heaven before the Incarnation...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    This was your answer to where in the Bible does it say: However, the verses you quote don't confirm God declaring that Eve "was only a part of Adam". It simply says, "Yahweh God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man". The rib was a part of Adam...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    Just writing "One [being] in two different places does not make them two persons" doesn't make that true either. Thta says God drove Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden; it doesn't say that God drove mankind out of the presence of God. Moses said in Moab, Deuteronomy 29:10 (WEB): (10) All...
