Genesis: B'nei Elohim, Nephilim, and Angels

So, who are these "b'nei elohim" in Genesis 6? And who exactly are these "nephilim" in Genesis 6? I have made a brief summary of Christianity's answers to these questions as well as Judaism's answers to these questions. I have decidedly come out for a particular belief and I share that with you in this video.

Question, you say angels can't go against the will of God because they dont have free will that in my little opinion would make them slaves and puppets but, Lucifer did; so how he in the beginning being pure and perfect was able to go against God and in top of that was able to convinced a lot of angels with him?

@jynettrosario

No, they are not slaves or puppets. They are not like man. Free will is what makes man unique. "Lucifer" never rebelled against G-d. HaSatan is an angel that resides in the heavenly realm. He has very limited free will given to him by G-d in order to be a tempter and accuser of mankind.

the images are misleading, especially the western european paintings made after the 16th century, shown when talking about middle eastern society of thousands of years ago (centuries bc / bce)

[pckills]

I did the best with what I had access to. I figured people would be mature enough to know they are not real depictions of the people.

@pckills if satan didn't rebel against God... how is he in the fiery pits of hell?

[newhippy]

the word lucifer comes from the latin luceum ferre which means light bringer!luciferase is a generic term for oxidative enzymes used in bioluminescence. To be leucistic means that you carry a mutation which results in reduced pigmentation in animals and humans, eg, a white lion. Partial leucism is known as pied or piebald. Lack of melanin in the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) and iris leusitic animals have normal coloured eyes. Originally lucifer refered to the planet venus .

@jynettrosario... very gud ?-as we all kno lucifer (the father of all lie)was the 1st and most beautiful angel.but tht wasnt enough for him.he didnt want to be LIKE GOD-he wanted TO BE GOD.his pride went to his head(thus starting the war in heaven)causing his followers(angels)to rebel.

I KNOW the angels are real because i have seen the ophanin they ride upon and the eyes that appear from their light.They appear from within rings of cloud that have the blackness above their heads.They are within thick cloud on the ground that we walk and the rainbow appears all around the ophanim after their light appears.Their eyes are like small round circles many together without a body.They make you calm when they appear to you.

i dont think any of gods creations was created with their will.becaus how can something immaterial from the beginning that not yet has been created have a choice to exist?.we never choosed to exist,we just came to be becaus god performed experiments and created millions of speecies without their permission!.Now we live inside a giant prison under the heaven,without knowing why we are here or having any knowledge of our origin.
