I am sometimes curious about what the physical world was like before the flood. Like housing, infrastructure, technology. I wonder if there was anything like computers or electronics beforehand ?

[Olog-hai]

Not clear if there were, but Ecclesiastes 1:10 gives one cause to wonder.

Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

And this was written by Solomon, who was given a special gift of wisdom.

[Mark17]

Sinful humanity, schooled in dark wisdom, broke through the barrier to communion between fallen Angels and God estranged humanity.

I have always thought this is exactly what happened. I think the nephilim were the infernal creatures to come out of this illicit communication between mankind and fallen angels, until God wiped them out in the flood. When the New Testament says, as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be. I wonder if it means this type of human/fallen angel contact will happen again? I don't know. I wonder what others think?

[Mark17]

I once read a book called "Did Genesis Man Conquer Space?" They may have had things like we would not believe, but who knows for sure?

“For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day I have begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?” (Hebrews 1:5)

The answer: None. “Sons of God” are believers, men.

“But as many as received him to them gave he power to become sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. Which were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” (John 1:12,13)

The Bible is full of many examples where “sons of God” intermarried with the “daughters of men” (idol worshipping locals) and were turned from God to evil.

[pastorbillrandles]

true, there is no where in scripture that I know of where he adressed an individual Angel, calling him,"My Son", but I have already provided an account of a gathering of the "Sons of God" which included Satan,(a fallen Angel). The Angels collectively were called "Sons of God" "Job 38"7- When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

[Mark17]

I went to your we site pastor. Very good. I read another book called The Omega Conspiracy” I think the author was I D E Thomas, but I can not remember for sure. He was talking about the “sons of God” in Genesis 6, as being fallen angels, and that those fallen angels that were involved in this instance, are now confined. When the demons asked Jesus if He came to torment them before the time, they may have been referring to those fallen angels who were involved in Genesis 6, because they remembered.

[CORedneck]

Yeah it is a definite curiosity. One day we will know. Something else that has come into mind, I wonder if this discussion of the lost continent of Atlantis points to pre-flood days as well ? On the book, “Did Genesis Man Conquer Space?”, I will have to see if I can get my hands on that book.

[dadfly]

makes a lot of sense. thanks for the post.

[Mark17]

I will have to see if I can get my hands on that book.

I think you can. Google it, but you probably already did.

[stars & stripes forever]

I wonder if it means this type of human/fallen angel contact will happen again?

Could this be the modern human/fallen angel contact?

“This incredible scenario is the plan of one of the world’s leading geneticists, who is seeking a volunteer to help bring man’s long-extinct close relative back to life...”

Zacharia Sitchen addressed these issues in his studies of the Sumerians. Now the Bible has written about this and the Sumerians wrote about it before the Bible. Somewhere you have to make a decision on what you want to believe. Nothing today relates.

“When the New Testament says, as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be. I wonder if it means this type of human/fallen angel contact will happen again?”

Well, if you read that NT verse in context, it is talking about the situation where nobody in Noah’s day heeded his warnings, and just continued eating, drinking, and being merry right up until the heavens opened up. It’s possible that there is a second analogy implied, after all, we know that the fallen angels will make a reappearance during the End Times. However, the plainest reading of the text doesn’t make that specific implication.

[Boogieman]

Yes, as best as I can figure by studying the Bible, the fallen angels who bred with men pre-flood (and probably post-flood as well), were imprisoned in what is called the “bottomless pit”. These seem to be a different set of angels from the ones who rebel with Satan against God. In Revelation, the bottomless pit is opened, and its inhabitants, depicted prophetically as locusts, are loosed upon the earth.

[Boogieman]

“Could this be the modern human/fallen angel contact?”

Too bad Quix skeedaddled, he thought the “alien abduction” phenomenon was fallen angels, possibly attempting to breed with men again, while laying the groundwork for an end times deception that they were messengers of peace and goodwill.

Gen 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

1 saw that the tree was good for food
2 that it was pleasant to the eyes
3 a tree to be desired to make one wise

Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

Gen 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

1 sons of God saw the daughters of men
2 they were fair
3 took them wives of all which they chose

Some would say Satan's attempt to thwart the seed of the woman from coming as Satan attacks woman kind. The human race was contaminated and " Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations"
