    I keep noticing a claim by Christians that Noah warned people of the Flood while he was building the Ark, and since nobody listened to him, they got swept away in the Flood. Sort of a reverse of the fable of the Boy Who Cried Wolf. But that's not actually what the text says happens, is it? Why is that teaching so widespread?
  • Victor Kila on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    The Sons of God could not be the SETH line
    Because they got wiped out in the flood! Only 8 survived?! Why didnt all the Sons of God survive?! They were a part of a Transhuman race called: Nephilim! So God wiped them out. Noah and his Sons and wives did not patticipate in this type of cohabitation thus Noah Found Grace in the eyes of the Lord! Its not difficult to understand: the Virgin Birth?!
  • Stephen B on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Hello, Lorease. Thank you for the input. What I was trying to get at is this: "Sons of God" refers to the godly line of Seth. That line was now becoming polluted with Cain's descendants. There are no female angels mentioned in God's Word, true. When Jesus used both humans and angels He was referring to the resurrection. There will be no sex/procreation in Heaven.
  • Lorease on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Bro. Stephen in Matt 22:30 why would Jesus parallel angels and humans as He spoke on marriage? Why did God ordain marriage, to reproduce. Again many verses proves all angels are males. Isaiah 43:6 has nothing to do with Sons of God? When the verse clearly speaks of restoring the children of Israel. Sons of God vs sons and daughters major difference
  • Stephen B on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Cheryl,

    Angels are sexless. Marriage in unknown among them ( Matthew 22.30) From the Scofield Bible: Verse two marks the breakdown of the the separation between the godly line of Seth and the ungodly line of Cain. Also, the title "sons of God" is not exclusive to angels: ( Isa. 43.6)
  • LOREASE on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Cheryl, Sons of God (not Cain's seeds) are referencing angels that left their own habitation/heaven read Jude 1:6. Giants were birth due to angels mating w/women. There are many supporting scriptures angels are male gendered read Gen Chps 18
  • Bruce on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Cheryl: All through Scripture Angels are referred to in The Masculine Gender. The Angels that talk to Lot are Called Men.They are always Called by Masculine Names. -when they rise from the dead they neither Marry nor are given in Marriage but are as the Angels which are in Heaven: Mark 12:25 / Zechariah 5:9 Two Women have Wings like a Stork. Two Female Angels? Found nowhere else in Scripture.
  • Cheryl on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    How is it that we say that the daughters of man mated with the Angels when we are also taught the Angel's have no sex , are they taking about men having sex with woman without marrying her and then saying the made giant children none as the nephilim dosen't make sense ?

    "To walk with God," to live in obedience to his commands, and have communion with him: Source: KingJamesBibleDictionary.com. BibleHub. Even Greek states, doing the "WILL of GOD."
  • RayJay on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Folks, be careful not to be mislead here. people take chapters like this, and create so many theories and use it to get followers. For example, is this talking about fallen angels? We don't really know here. "Sons of God" could have simply been Seth's line (people doing God's Will), and the wicked Cain's line. Giants could be big tall people or even dino's, we really don't know. Just be careful
  • Found sheep on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    This chapter tells us about fallen angels copulating with human race and consequently their giant-like huge in size children. The reason why Noah was only preserved is stated in Genesis 6:9Noah was perfect in his generation no fallen angel seed IN HIM. That is why God flooded everything else because it was corrupted with devil's seed.
  • BSP on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Verse 13~God told Noah what he was going to do ahead of time. Jehovah God always warns his servants ahead of time.

The Dark times Are.beginning and the Mark of the Beast is Upon Us.. Genesis 6:6 has been altered ...Repented to sorries in new worldly translation s of the Word.worldisDooomed.
  • BSP on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Verse 22~Noah did not cut any corners. He did exactly as God directed and Noah and his family survived because of their obedience.
  • A disciple on Psalms 7 - 6 years ago
    Interesting how the very substance contained in this Psalm's Title is played out in the multitude of contentious and fault-finding responses! "Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite." Shiggaion means, A departure from what is right, true, correct; a deviation from the normal or the typical; mental derangement or lapse. See Genesis 6:3
  • A disciple on Genesis 14 - 6 years ago
    Dear BG; You wrote, "You can clearly see Abram's growing dependence upon God to throughout his life. He wasn't perfect but he was learning to trust the Lord more and more." While it is so popular to take up this kind of talk, and apologizing to the ungodly for the Saints; it does not describe Abram! Genesis 6:3 Excusing one's self for failure because of the weakness of the flesh is disobedience!
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    "..GOD saw the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil continually.." We have been PRAYING our hearts out for all the evil cruelty and filthy perversion of the wicked to come out in the open, and that they be JUDGED with all the righteous fierceness they deserve! Now we understand better what means the intense heat of God's wrath!
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    "And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart." They wink at each other, and have a nice little chuckle and congratulate themselves for distancing themselves from the Saints of Jesus. But God scorns them!
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    If some want to follow voices of strangers and have itching ears for ridiculous fables that serve absolutely nothing to the advancement of faith, love and virtue in Christ; LET THEM! For the rest of us who seek the Lord Jesus, the message of a hopelessly lost and degenerate world about to be utterly destroyed moves us to move with fear and build the only means of salvation from the doom to come.
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    "..the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, MY SPIRIT SHALL NOT ALWAYS STRIVE WITH MAN FOR THAT HE ALSO IS FLESH.." What do you hear the most from constantly the backslider who just can't quit sinning? Excusing their sins (which they secretly love) because their flesh is weak! This is the true doctrine.
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    Dawn; Read carefully the whole story in full: there is no reference to demons at all! Its all about the world of men as there was a great chasm dividing the Saints the sons (children) of God, and the descendants of Cain. There is nothing about what demons did; but that men did! They were resisting the conviction of the Spirit, and loving the things of this world; until only Noah was left!
  • Dawn Ritter on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    A disciple, Ann is right those were fallen angels who had relations with daughters of men. The men of old and renown were fallen angels who produced giants with the daughters of man.
  • David on Genesis 6 - 6 years ago
    The truth is clear when doing some good old research. First, there is a 14 foot human leg bone on display PROVING there were giants on the earth, 2nd, Genesis 6 proves once again, Gods word is the truth not those that are here ONLY to claim they know best. Never claim to be "all knowing" when talking about God's word, God will surly make a fool of you.
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    Ann; that is a false teaching! Cain murdered his brother because he rejected God's Word, and willfully omitted all reference of Christ having to come in the flesh, when he came to present himself to God. Therefore he was rejected, and so he murdered his brother for being good. The sons of God then were the children of faith, and the sacred line descended from Seth instead of Able whom Cain slew.
  • Ann on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    The sons of God were the fallen angels who fell from heaven, which took the form of human-like creatures, and married the daughters of men, and the giants (the Nephilim) were the result of this sinful act. Genesis 6:4-8. The male angels (sons of God) Job 38:7 - Job 1:6.
  • Ann on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    Genesis 7:13 tells us who went into the ark. Amen.
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    Gigi (cont.) When keeping in the context of the first chapters of Genesis up to that point it is clear that there is a distinct moral and spiritual divide in the earth between the godly seed of the sons of God after the line of Seth and the heathen children of men after Cain. By Noah's day there had evolved such a darkness of apostasy that no one could anymore be moved by conviction of the Spirit.
  • A disciple on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    Gigi; "who were those giants?" Well, I've never found a completely satisfying answer to that, other than the Word itself just on its face. I think we have to assume they were freakishly large men, or "man-like" creatures. One great error however about them comes from MIS-reading the verse around it; which many think says that the giants were the offspring of the sons of God marrying unsaved women.
  • Gigi Maher on Genesis 6 - 7 years ago
    who were those giants??
    "That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose .... There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown"
