Agree with all of you on loving me some Romans 8.


My favorite verses are 28, and 38-39. But the whole chapter is probably the best summary of Paulinian doctrine.

Matthew 7:13-14 NIV

The Narrow and Wide Gates
13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

To: Mark17
..."The Nephilim? I think the antediluvian world, was FAR FAR more evil, than we can imagine."....

I've studied this for about 20 years now. These giants were made for corrupted DNA and produced monsters. The Fallen Angels corrupted the DNA God had declared "Good!" and immediately God introduces Noah and swears to kill everything that breathes. IMO, They experimented with DNA editing and produced things like Dinosaurs and other Chimeras. God had designed us where we couldn't mate with an ape or a horse and end up with a Man ape. The Nephilim knew sorcery, witchcraft, and spells and taught it to the earth women. This is the reason God ordered Saul and others to kill everything with breath in certain places. Many Christians have a problem when God told Saul to kill women and children along with livestock of the Agagites. If he had done what God asked him to do, there wouldn't have been a book of Esther because Haman wouldn't have been born.

Most Christians don't realize that there were many more giants than just Goliath. He had 4 brothers. Og was king of Bashan. There are Amorites spoken of in Amos 2. People read about the 12 spies and see the part about they were like grasshoppers in their eyes, but generally miss the part about they DEVOURED the inhabitants of the land. They had 6 fingers and 6 toes on their hands and feet.

Now skip over to the prophesy of Daniel about the statue with iron feet mixed with clay.

Dan 2:43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.

Who or what is "THEY" that won't mix with the clay? (clay is us). Something is coming back in the last days. Nimrod was the 1st "Giant" after the Flood according to the Septuagint. Nimrod is a type of Antichrist. The evil talked about in the Last Days will be supernatural.

Yes, they do, but I feel that is because they don’t understand who the sons of God were, and who the Nephilim were. There was a gnome problem, and I will go even further than you did, and say, that if Joshua and others had wiped them out, to the last man, woman and child, like God ordered them to, they wouldn’t be having some of the problems they have today.

Proof we know nothing and our ancients left us bread crumbs and Easter eggs for future enlightenment and edification.   So, we've got that going for us.

Mattew 12:34

ESV
You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

Jesus got medieval with money changers and verbally chewed out hypocrites. It does not take an expert theologian to imagine what our Lord might have to say to the biggest hypocrites in the USA now, demoncraps.

And the earth was (became) void.

According to Strongs.
That verse was Geology 101 for me.

Mark 16. Jesus the Christ, Risen. Alive again, but more than just alive. Imagine being visited by Him during those post-Resurrection days.

We knew a priest, long passed now who was a unique and wonderful homilist . When commenting on the apostles or someone who knew Jesus, he could bring us right into the life and thinking of those people, imagining what they must have felt like etc. RIP Father Joseph Pettit.

Authors of the new testament quoted it. It’s not canon, but it was ome of their sources. http://alaskandreams.net/ekklesia/Book%20of%20Enoch%20NT%20Verses.htm

It’s good to acquaint oneself with the information the bible authors were using. But it gets even more interesting:

Did you ever wonder what the source was for Paul’s position regarding hair length? Well... https://www.jstor.org/stable/3268550?seq=1

And referenced here: https://drmsh.com/christians-who-believe-the-earth-is-really-flat-does-it-get-any-dumber-than-this/
In this section that refers to his podcast where it is discussed:

“Is the hair on a woman’s head really part of her genitalia that assists in drawing a man’s semen to her uterus so she can conceive? That’s what people in Paul’s day believed about hair. And based on what Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 11 about hair and covering the head, he believed it, too. So I guess we need to in order to “believe the Bible.” Why not? You believe the earth is really flat, so why are you omitting this “Bible reality”? Don’t think that what I’m saying about first century people connecting hair to fertility and procreation is correct? Listen to this episode of my Naked Bible podcast. I quote ancient Greco-Roman philosophers (ever heard of Aristotle?) and physicians (how about Hippocrates?) to show this is indeed the case.2 (That’s called using primary sources for tapping into the worldview of the biblical writers — same thing I did for the flat earth stuff … so are you going to be consistent or not?) Again … we know today how procreation really works, scientifically. The hair on a woman’s head isn’t part of conception.”

I tell people that the life of the non-believer is similar to the life of an animal (It is the “natural man”). That is, you make what you will of the life God gave you, and then you die.

But Christ offers a better way. :)

And by default we wouldn’t be having issues that we have today either.

YMMV, but I’m of the opinion Nephilim are here among us.
