As It Was In The Days Of Noah: Flood Series Part 7.

Jude verses 5-7

“5 But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe. 6 And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in EVERLASTING CHAINS UNDER DARKNESS FOR THE JUDGMENT OF THE GREAT DAY; 7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to SEXUAL IMMORALITY and gone after STRANGE FLESH, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”

So much of the account of the flood is prophetic the end times, LIKE NOW, some of which we discussed in part 6.  In fact, Genesis is probably the most prophetic book of them all, so it’s crucial to understand it in light of what is happening in the 21st century.

–

The opening passage describes the fate of the principal trouble makers in Noah’s time while the passage below from Luke alludes to what they were doing.  I say “alludes to” because you really don’t get a very detailed picture in English.  It is in the Hebrew text that you find a more complete picture.

Genesis 6:1

“Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, 2 that the ‘sons of God’ saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose….”

–

These “daughters of men,” were simply normal human women born of human parents.  But the “sons of God” were fallen angels who took on human form.  They had sex with them, creating half-human/half-demon hybrids.  Horrible creatures of all descriptions. YUK!!! 🤮

–

–

In verse 4 of Genesis 6 it says that “There were giants on the earth in those days, AND ALSO AFTERWARD—meaning after the flood—when the “sons of God” came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.”

–

–

These abominations were mighty in size, strength and, above all, WICKEDNESS!  They were called the NEPHILIM before the flood; ANAKIM AND REPHAIM afterward. Goliath was one of these aberrations.

–

You can tell they were fallen angels in part from the passage above but the word Nephilim itself comes from the Hebrew root word, “naphal,” which means “fallen.” The devil and his crew carried out their heinous plan in order to pollute the human race in an effort to stop the birth of God’s Champion.  God could not, of course, allow it to be carried out to its evil conclusion which is why He had to send the flood.  If He had not done so, there would have been no human race left!  No human race = Jesus could not be born = no hope of redemption for mankind.

Genesis 6:5-7

“Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.”

The devil is not all-knowing and cannot read the human mind.  He didn’t have a scorecard to tell who the players were so he did lots of things. One of his perversions is still alive and well today, though does not have the same impact, i.e, Astrology.

–

Why did he invent it?  Because for 2500 years, there was no written word of God.  He Who made the stars, put them in place, named them, and set them in motion, actually wrote the Gospel Story in the night sky.  The 48 constellations tell the whole AWESOME story of Redemption!  That’s how the Gospel story of was preached from generation to generation. They knew how to read it and what it meant.  

–

The tower of Babel was constructed, orchestrated by satan of course, toward the end of distorting and confusing the story in the stars, thereby halting the spread of the gospel. Anyone interested in more information or in the whole on the Story may follow the link below. But be warned: It’s a 44 part study!:

The devil instigated his buddy, Pharoah, to kill all the Hebrew babies in Moses’ day. He tried the same thing when Jesus was 2 years old:  Got his buddy, Herod, to kill all the babies 2 years old and younger in response to the wise men, who had come from the East to inquire about Him of the king. That clued him in that something BIG was up.  But, of course, the devil didn’t know which baby it was.  As I said, he’s not all knowing.  He missed, of course, because he’s always a day late and a dollar short.

–

Before the flood, people lived a really lo-o-o-ong time!  Adam was 930 years old when he died and Noah was 950!  The man who lived the longest was Methusela, at 969 years of age.  Just before the flood, after all those hundreds of years, the outbreak of Nephilim was so widespread that the pollution of the human race was almost complete.

–

Just think of it:  Those evil half-breeds lived hundreds of years, their thoughts and intentions of their hearts were continually evil, as it tells us in Genesis 6. Well, they sure devised A WHOLE LOT OF IT, having learned a lot of it from the Nephillim who stole their knowledge from the most High!  Hard to imagine.

–

Satan’s plan almost worked, too…..except for one little detail:  

–

–

The word for perfect in this verse in Hebrew is “TAMMIM.”   This is the same word as the one used in referring to the lamb one brought to the priest.  It means PHYSICALLY, not spiritually, perfect.…..in other words, NOAH AND THE OTHER SEVEN MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY WERE THE ONLY FULLY HUMAN SPECIMENS LEFT ON PLANET EARTH!

–

–

There’s been a lot of conjecture, by more than a few, that in these last days, the Nephilim will actually return and start producing hybrids again.  This is partly because of the scripture that says, “And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the coming of the Son of Man:”(Luke 17:26)

–

Yes, there will definitely be a modern-day outbreak of the Nephillim.  HOWEVER…..it will not be fallen angels taking human form and impregnating human women.  It will be “AS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH.”  In other words, “SIMILAR” to that outbreak, so you can breathe a sigh of relief.

–

–

–

Why did the devil pull the same stunt again?  Because he knew that God had promised Noah He would NEVER, ever again send another flood to destroy all mankind.  So he thought to himself, “Hmmm…I have another chance to pollute the human race!”    As I said, Goliath was one of these half-human creatures.  That is why, though over 9 feet tall clad in very heavy bronze armor, he could not only stand but carry it all because he had demonic help!

–
The devil realized the land of Canaan was a piece of real estate that was of special interest to God.  That’s why he put his “people/hybrids” in place in that particular location.

–

Early Judgment.

Aw, but don’t worry.  You won’t be seeing any horrible, half-human/half-demon creatures walking around in your town.  God put a stop to these demons. How can we be assured of that? He did two things:

#1- He locked up the fallen angels that did not keep their place, as documented in the opening scripture; in other words, the ones who took on human form and fathered these abominations.  They were judged and sentenced to eternal punishment early, and…..

#2. He raised up the nation of Israel to eradicate the post-diluvian outbreak, the Anakim and Refaim.  No more hybrids.

–

That’s what the opening scripture is talking about: “6 And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in EVERLASTING CHAINS UNDER DARKNESS FOR THE JUDGMENT OF THE GREAT DAY;“

–

Didn’t you ever wonder why God told Joshua to have the Israelites kill every man, woman and child when they entered the Promised land and conquered the cities of Canaan?  It always seemed really and unfair and cruel to me until I realized He wanted them to wipe out every trace of demon DNA. Otherwise, the human race could be taken over…..again!  YIKES!!!  😳 

–

I’m so glad the devil and his minions aren’t going to be doing THAT again!  No sir.  What, and risk being judged early and sent to hell early like their predecessors?  NO WAY. They know all too well that time will come soon enough and they’re in no rush, believe me.  Mimic their behavior, yes–but take on human form: NO!

–

As distasteful as it may be to discuss, there are people who sexually dabble with demon spirits, both men and women.  The incubus is the male form; succubus the female.  “Strange flesh,” as I said, is described in great detail in the first chapter of the book of  Romans. Fortunately for us, no offspring can result from either type of union.  This kind of behavior is happening today, which means the rapture is VERY NEAR and the second coming not too long after that.

–

So my question is, since the devil very obviously failed to stop the seed of the woman, why is he still coming after Israel?   Because he’s trying to keep prophecy from coming true so that the SECOND COMING CANNOT HAPPEN.
