Discuss Genesis 6 Page 24

I really would like to know the correct translation to the two separate ideals of "also is flesh", and or "man is flesh" . .

The Bible does not elaborate. However, if you ever saw some fishermen's boats, they have live wells. I think there is reason to believe that God did not require ALL water creatures in the ark. Even so, some may not have been adult animals yet, which would allow them to be smaller and easier to manage. Don't worry - God knew what He was doing!

So were there fish tanks on the ark? I don't see how salt water and fresh water fish could both survive otherwise. And if that's a miracle why not just have all animals survive miraculously?

The Daughters of Seth ( the Godly line ) married the sons of Cain ( ungodly ) and produced children who were raised in an ungodly manner.

Who fathered these daughters?

(the lord said my spirit will not always strive with man)I've been fortunate enough to have the presence of the spirit of god in me for many months and then not. what its means to me in my life is that god is showing me or reminding me that he's the light, not me

the light, not me

its curious that some of the fish of the sea uses Breath) oxygen to survive. And yet He only destroyed those creatures that could not survive in water. Verse 17

there shall be a time of trauble in the last days but God will stand wth all those who shall fear him unto the end of time.

Since God is full of grace and mercy, he has lots of patience with mankind. He doesn't always send his wrath upon disobedience right way. He gives mankind time to repent. But eventually God says enough is enough.

This is in response to 9/06/2013, 5:40pm - Comment by "Ben" about Genesis Chapter 6: All flesh must be destroyed with the earth because God have seen that they corrupted their ways upon the earth. But it doesn't mean that animals are corrupt too. In fact, God instructed Noah to save each kind of them by pairs. But since all human being should be destroyed therefore other things upon the face of the earth would be affected in that process. Except those that God had chosen to save with Noah who was found grace in God's sight.

By "all flesh" does this include the animals as well? How could animals be corrupt?

Given careful consideration, the first few verses of Genesis 6 are among the most disturbing verses to be found. It's enough to rock your whole process for a moment. What happens here affects you directly and personally to this very day.

there has been controversy about the offsprings of the marriage between sons of god and daughters of men. People concluded too soon that the offsprings were giants. This is misinterpretation. According to gen.6 there were giants in those days and the offsprings were mighty men. Might is not measurable through muscles. An intelligent man can also be regarded as mighty. Therefore,these mighty men were those whose wisdom was like that of god. They had the intellectual capability to unravel mysteries. They were the great thinkers of old,and not necessarily giants.

Everyone who claims to FULLY understand all of the bible stories is a liar and is not seeking TRUTH or peace. Whatever God literally is, He is so far greater than our minds can comprehend. We NEED to seek first the kingdoms (government, order & organization of how the things of God work) and all the rest shall be given, we don't NEED to claim to know how old the whole earth is, or wether or not there were other beings or what those beings actually were, we just need to absorb the general "way things work" and understand the way God runs His kingdom. Details are unnecessary and cause strife. We get distracted & cause doubt. It's not what Jesus told us to do.

I truly believe in the word of God as it is written!! If one is truly saved by the grace of our Lord and Savior JESUS Christ all word that is inspired of God will be revealed in a timely manner to that individual without some else's interpretation through the Comforter who is the Holy Ghost! These things that occurred many a year ago shows that God perfection and his absolute as the supreme ruler of the universe that he spoke into existence. also, his determination to preserve the purity of the jewish linage of Christ maternal side(earthy)by eradicating the fallen ones goal of contaminating his jewish heritage .

I love Any part of the Bible I believe in the word . I also believe every part of the Bible is great.

So much error has been caused by the mishandling of these scriptures. Honestly, it is this passage that is my litmus test when discerning if someone has read and understood the Bible. The Nephilim were the children of angels and humans. The Demi-Gods of Crete. It's like the whole world has amnesia. Look at Egypt! How can you understand the Bible at all if you do not understand the wars of the old testament, the genealogies,the dna mixing of beasts with men, which is coming again better check out the trans humanism movement. As in the days of Noah....

To discern God’s word one must get to know his creation here on earth in one’s own sphere of existence. Genesis says so much and discerning his creation and Noah’s flood to remove the wickedness of man by removing wickedness of life outside the ark. Satan and his band of rogue angels are pestering God and looking for a fight with a big reward at the end. Spirits (angels) jealous of men of flesh and blood come on! A reasoning body of flesh and spirited soul can figure out what is going on. Giants and evil demons and devils in those days thanks to the daughters of men (not really helpmates) and fallen angels would have ended man in short order. God’s word is for man not angels, demons, giants, lost cause hybrids.

I am stuck on the effects and consequence of the daughters of men and fallen angels of having intercourse pushing aside men has on life today. I see Noah’s flood a consequence. The death of giants has brought us demons and devils. I am trying to see the real picture.

And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.*** This is contrary to Genesis 1:31

a day is not a thousand years a day is a day.If god made flowers one day and not bees for a thousand years later the flowers would be dead . god made the worls in 6 litteral days!!!!!!

Then how do you account for the Nephilim and subsequently the sons of Anak and the report that the spies gave about their actual size on the Canaan border? SO yea, I do believe they were come to seek the pleasures of the world. Look also at the book of Jude, where it talks about how the Angels that left their post and created a great sin are locked up in the outer darkness. Or the area of weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Because he said that, and it came to pass, when men began to multiply on a face of the earth.

From Seth, we get the sons of God, as shows Genesis 6:2.

Do not doubt the word of God, the spirit beings were angels who came to seek the pleasures of the world, and God shall judge them in the end.

Why were there no restrooms in the ark? Why all the men entered the ark first?

@Insight 777,
1. Man’s insight is no insight when it comes to God's holy word ( Matthew 22:29);
2. Jesus is the son of man and this title is used by the Jews only;
3. The scriptures make reference to Jesus as the son of man about 80 times;
4. This reference by the Jews connects Jesus to his human nature and lineage to King David;
5. Son of God is mostly a New Testament church age title connecting Jesus to his divine nature as God manifested in the flesh ( John 1:14);
6. Sons of God in Old Testament is in reference to the devil and his fallen angels (Job:1:6; 2:1; Genesis 6:2);
7. The sons of God in the New Testament refers to born again believers in Jesus Christ ( John 1:12; Romans 8:14);
8. Do not confuse son of God with sons of God, they are 2 different groups of beings;
9. Please, remember that the bible always interprets itself and honestly and using scriptures to make your point will validate your point ( 2 Timothy 3:16).

Angels are called Sons of God. Look at the opening account of the book of Job verse 6! "Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them." King James Version.

First of all, in heaven there is no marriage or anyone giving in marriage. “Sons of God” doesn't hold the same meaning as Son of God. Sons of God is referring to Man of God, someone who follows the word, here these men marred women of the world. The giants represents men of authority, this is about those who use the word for personal gain.

Ronald Allen's comment make sense to me, I think maybe God is in the process of withdrawing his spirit from this world at this time, a day is as a thousand years, so we may be in the latter part of the last day. I think it is getting late for everyone.
