Vanity: Has Anyone Dug Deep into the Existance of the Nephilim?
Youtube ^ | Sep 19, 2019 | Universe Inside You

Posted on 02/27/2022 11:27:27 AM PST by jonno

One of my kids sent me this video. It purports that there are many (dozens? hundreds?) of historical accounts/reports of giants, tribes or giants, encounters with giants, etc.

The video seems to be well made and plausible. However, I remain skeptical. Supposedly many of the giant skeletal remains made their way to the Smithsonian. There are plenty of snopes articles debunking stories of this sort, but who knows what to believe from snopes?

Like any other topic of this sort their are supporters & detractors. The trick of course is sorting through the BS.

Before I dig further into this, I'm curious if any skeptical Freepers have gone down this particular rabbit hole...

The Biblical account, of Genesis chapter 6. Trey Smith, Chuck Missler, Steve Quayle, and others, have done much research on the subject of the Nephilim.

I hear there was a Green Giant who used to advertise vegetables on TV.

Yes, but he was fired for constantly disparaging women.

Yes, it's been replaced by digital photography.

Yes and but be careful because it can take you off into the esoteric.

That there was a post-flood outbreak more or less in the land of Caanan explains why the Israelites were commanded to utterly wipe out the hybrid populations of the region.

Protestant Scripture scholar Dr. Michael Heisner has spoken extensively on this. His analysis is the most biblical I’ve seen. Check out his YouTube channel and his podcast, “The Naked Bible”.

I know strange things like this can make one curious. No harm in that. But I have seen some Christians get deep into esoteric, unknowable things - to the point where it dominates their thought life. Maybe it is intoxicating if one thinks one has special knowledge about some “secret” or other. But it isn’t healthy.

Very true. Not saying the OP is guilty of this, but many Bible newbies and others that are not well grounded in solid biblical study tend to want to focus on the same two things: the Book of Revelation and the Nephilim.

some native indian stories of giants, all with red or blond hair and white skin

Some stories these giants had horns on their heads.

I conclude they crossed paths with Vikings that settled in the area

Giant piles of bull crap. It isn’t enough the problems of today without making stupid fools of yourselves. The earth is flat the moon landing was filmed in Hollywood and jet airliners spread mind control poison from the sky.

I completely agree. The Bible is full of things I don’t understand, and it seems no one understands. I don’t think that I will be judged on these things.

However, some things that Jesus taught are very plain. Love God and your neighbors. Forgive others. I struggle with these things. I need to focus my attention on loving God, loving my neighbor, and forgiving others.
