Dr Chuck Missler: Genesis Chapter 6 - Days of Noah 1-8

http://www.khouse.org/ - Genesis Chapter 6 -

1And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

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

3And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

4There 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.

Your video is great, but I wanted you to go deeper into verse 4. Who were the sons of God? And what is the contrast between them and the daughters of men?  What is the implication here?

[compu102]

Three primary views: 1)fallen angels 2)powerful human rulers 3) godly descendants of Seth intermarrying with wicked descendants of Cain.

The Bible gives us no reason to believe that angels have a gender or are able to reproduce.

However it does not account for why the offspring were giants or heroes of old, men of renown. Further, why would God decide to bring the flood on the earth (Genesis 6:5-7) when God had never forbade powerful human males or descendants of Seth to marry

[compu102]

ordinary human females or descendants of Cain? The oncoming judgment of Genesis 6:5-7 is linked to what took place in Genesis 6:1-4. Only the perverse marriage of fallen angels with human females would seem to justify such a harsh judgment. The fact that Gods holy angels do not marry or engage in sexual relations does not mean the same is true of Satan and his demons. Angels are spiritual beings (Hebrews 1:14), they can appear in human, physical form (Mark 16:5).

[compu102]

Why do the fallen angels not do this more often? It seems that God imprisoned the fallen angels who committed this evil sin, so that the other fallen angels would not do the same (Jude 6)

@compu102 Interesting

thx compu 102 good stuff

[onefeather2]

The bible does not say that they "angels" can not have sex, it say's they do not marry, big difference.

[mickben]

@compu102 Matthew 22:30

For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

sorry, angels do not have sex. also, does a man having sex with an animal make a child? no. same thing with angels, they are not humans.

@guitardavid79 Care to define exactly what evidence that might be? Facts or no? After all the remaining portion of your commentary is not relevant, and rather paints a picture of a rather impotent deity when you consider what a kludge a flood is. Consider: can plants and animals sin? Why not just whack the offenders like Sodom and Gomorrah, or the 1st born for Moses? Was YWYH waiting to "level up"? ACHEIVEMENT UNLOCKED: GLOBAL DEATH MURDER BLAST!" It sounds like a petty child breaking it's toys.

[guitardavid79]

@NorthForkFisherman Well, look who it is! I see your making your way around these videos, good, you need to.

The reason why God used a flood is not that hard to figure out. You have to learn about how God works.

1. The flood left evidence where something like miracle working would not.

2. The effects are here for all to see and be reminded of God's judgment on sin.

3. And most importantly, the warning time gave people a chance to repent.

God sounds pretty generous after all doesn't he?

@SaltandLightEditor

Godly men who took ungodly women for wives. Why man was punished loss of long life etc.

[NorthForkFisherman]

@SeraphsSword That's more than twice enough to raise the temp of the Earth's atmosphere to 100 deg C. Ergo, Noah would've been cooked and all life extinguished. Of course, none of this matters with out data to back it up: Wilgus, Cheryl K. and William T. Holser, 1984. "Marine and Nonmarine Salts of Western Interior, United States," AAPG Bulletin. p. 765-766, and for the chemistry info, feel free to refer to any college chemistry text. Varve data next?

[NorthForkFisherman]

@SeraphsSword This salt contains no pollen from modern sources. All comes from Permian plants. Now the area of salt deposition is 188,400 sq km. Dividing by 2 to get the average thickness of about 45 meters. This equals about 9 trillion cu meters of NaCl. (not 8 trillion) Now the density of salt is 2160 kg/cu meter, so this represents the evaporation of 540,000 cu km of seawater. To evaporate this much sea water and leave the salt requires 10^24 joules of heat energy. (continued)
