The Nephilim portrayed in the stained glass of Chartres: The Female Giant Virgo

I am writing about the mysterious giants depicted in the stained glass window at Chartres Cathedral. It has many puzzled exactly what message is being depicted in the stained glass windows of Chartres. In my last article I suggest that one of the giants is Orion because he carries a club in his hand. The stained glass window is depicting the story of Noah and the Great Flood.

Deuteronomy 3:11
(Og king of Bashan was the last of the Rephaites.
His bed was decorated with iron and was more than
nine cubits long and four cubits wide. It is still in Rabbah of the Ammonites.)
New Living Translation (©2007)
(King Og of Bashan was the last survivor of the giant Rephaites. His bed was made of iron and was more than thirteen feet long and six feet wide. It can still be seen in the Ammonite city of Rabbah.)

English Standard Version (©2001)
(For only Og the king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaim.
Behold, his bed was a bed of iron. Is it not in Rabbah of the Ammonites? Nine cubits was its length, and four cubits its breadth, according to the common cubit.)

The bed had GIANT BEDBUGS, too.

The Bible explains much of what otherwise is unexplainable. The Bible says that these giants were around before and after Noah's flood. It seems that Goliath (slain by David, later King David) was one. I think also the Amalikites were of the Nephilim, which is why God told Israel to kill every one and not to spare any becasue the gene pool had been corrupted.

I think the existence of the Nephilim, the giants, can explain certain structures like the Stonehenge and the statues on Easter Island.

It seems that they're no longer around. Jude 1:6 says, "And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, [God] has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day." This seems to indicate that these mutant fallen angels who somehow changed their form to mate with human women, are permanently bound until the Final Judgment. That could mean we won't see these creatures anymore on earth.

However, in Matt. 24:27, Jesus said, "But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." This might leave open the possibility that during the Great Tribulation, these creatures could reappear. I wouldn't be surprised.

I’m reading a fascinating book on that topic right now - called “The Omega Conspiracy.” It was written in the 80’s but it’s still a darn good read.

And yeah, I do think the UFO phenomenon is driven by demonic activity. There will be a great deception, you know.

There have been rumors of giant human-ish skeletons found on archeological digs, but there’s also accusations of it being a hoax.

I’m not going to get into that debate, because I’m not that much into archeology, or conspiracy-vs-hoax debates. But, I do have a friend whose husband is the “midget” of his family at 6’5”. She sometimes teases him about being descended from one of the giants in the Bible.

Don't forget

1 Pe 3:18 For Christ also died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit;

1 Pe 3:19 in which he went and preached to the spirits in prison,

1 Pe 3:20 who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

They have found quite a few in Europe and the US.

http://gianthumanskeletons.blogspot.com/p/headlines-of-giant-human-skeletons.html

Thing is, the scientific community does not want to change their preconceived ideas rather than accept that there were giants. or no global warming, or no Mayans in the US. Or a lot of other things that there is absolute proof.

Sound familiar?

All science is a belief. To upset that set of beliefs takes a lot.

Look into the resistance Einstein had when he had proof of relativity.

I think 1 Peter is about the people who disobeyed whereas Jude is speaking of a particular class of fallen angels who changed their "habitation" (form) (to mate with human females).

Shameful for the Fighting Irish to lose for the 3rd straight year, especially under the circumstances...

Perhaps but why are they singled out? Were there not people who disobeyed during the period between the deluge and Christ's baptism?

I don't know why - have to re-look at the passage and ask the Lord about that. Good question.

They just need to recruit a few Nephilim.
