Fine.... my response was based on your snide remark. How can you say such a thing to someone who actually experienced something that horrific? I'm not so much thinking about myself here.....but consider that a 4 year old child was forced to endure that....and the babies who were murdered in a hideous way. Your question was heartless and inconsiderate.I am addressing the nature of your response to me....not your experience as a child.
Then tell me.....what was your intention with that question if not to mock?you take offence when no offence is or was intended.
It is your interpretation as snide. If you insist on putting my words in the worst possible light, even in the face of clarification, you are left with your prejudiced view for which I am also sorry.Fine.... my response was based on your snide remark.

it was not to mock, not in the slightest...it was to determine how, whatever you saw/experienced could be identified as nephillimThen tell me.....what was your intention with that question if not to mock?
You should have phrased your question in kinder words, not words that sound to be mocking. I am not in the wrong here.it was not to mock, not in the slightest...it was to determine how, whatever you saw/experienced could be identified as nephillim
my dear, I say what I say with the intent of not beating around the bush. What is said is never intended as an insult yet if it is heard as an insult, that is unfortunate. No doubt the scriptures are also heard in unfortunate ways with many loosing the path because of insistence.You should have phrased your question in kinder words, not words that sound to be mocking.

Anyway.....I answered your question.
They were nephilim. They were not spirit beings, nor my imagination. They were not humans in suits. Believe all the lies that make you feel comfortable if that's what you want. Scripture supports my experience...period. And done.my dear, I say what I say with the intent of not beating around the bush.

did they have a name tag reading 'nephillim' ?
Just a question . Do you all think when Christ returns, He will be a mere man possessed ?
I ask because I trying to figure out why do most believe satan as the antichrist will be possessed?
tell me why you think it insensitive?I don't know. Maybe you should try being there to see for yourself. Then maybe you would stop and think before responding with such an insensitive comment.
You might change your snide rejoinder when one shows up in your back hard...hungry.did they have a name tag reading 'nephillim' ?
I suppose society is quiet happy to live in fantasy/imagination. We tell children about Santa Claus and easter bunny and the tooth fairy without blinking but are offended when asked why we tell such bald faced lies to little ones who don't have the ability to discern.You might change your snide rejoinder when one shows up in your back hard...hungry.
Do you have an experience with Jesus Christ? Have you ever experienced the love of God?There is a danger in interpreting scripture through the lens of experience.
Because God's word is truth because it is God's word. Taking our experience and going to God's word and searching for affirmation is dangerous because we can justify anything by taking the scriptures out of context. That doesn't mean the experience isn't real, taking such a stand would be heartlessness in the extreme. But taking that experience and attempting to interpret the scriptures by that experience is fraught with difficulty.So tell me ....why shouldn't and why wouldn't our experience testify to the truth of God's Word?
