Real life presents the Jack Hibbs podcast with intention and boldness to proclaim truth, equip the saints and impact our culture. So something's up. These fallen angels where these women are unusually brazen and seductive and they caused among the sons of God a rousal. This is creepy and they took, carried away, caught, seized upon them and made them lives, forced them into the marriage act, the sons of God, came into the daughters of mankind and they bore to them children. Those were mighty men who were of old men of renown, references of giants that the Bible says they have six fingers and six toes.

Today, if this podcast lifts you up and encourages you to live a more fulfilled life in Christ, then make sure you leave us one of those five star ratings. To us, that's like saying Amen or yes, then that rating will encourage others to listen. Now open your hearts to what God's word has to say to you. Here is jackhibbs. Everybody, we're back at it. We are looking at the bizarre things between angels falling and good. What about demons? There's a difference and we were making our argument for that and granted, this is stuff that you're never going to hear in the Sunday morning, probably anywhere for good reason because it would blow people's minds yet it's in the Bible. And so if it's in the Bible, we need to know it. We're talking about, now we're going to kind of shift. If you missed the first part of this from last time, go back and check it out and then come on back. Just pause it. Go back and look at part one and then jump back in, now back over with us as we're diving in this because we're going to pick it up where we left off. We're just getting out of the good, bad angel world and we introduced a little bit of the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, the days of Noah, what it's going to be like in the last days. There's going to be demonic deception and we had talked about how in the Sodom and Gomorrah with the man lot, two angels appeared and they seem to be like men to the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah. In fact, so much so that the homosexual community wanted to have relationship with these men, but they were actually angels and you can read Genesis, I believe it's 19 for all of that. Let's dive in. Let's go into this what's the next step with our progression of this. Genesis chapter 6 verses 1 through 4. Now remember, we're talking angels, both good, angels bad, which are called fallen angels, Gabriel, Michael, good, angel, Lucifer, Satan, bad, fallen angel. Now Genesis chapter 6. Now it came to pass when men, that is the descendants of Adam, men kind, began to multiply in the face of the earth and daughters were born to them. By the way, that's an odd statement, isn't it? How do you have a bunch of people being born and then all of a sudden daughters pop up? That's not what it means. And daughters were born to them. When you go and research that statement, we're talking about women who are definitely definitely, I would just say provocative, brazen, their daughters born to men, mankind, that are conducting themselves outside the norm. They are abnormally seductive, abnormally brazen. What's the result of this? And daughters were born to men, verse 2, that the sons, the result, that the sons of God, Old Testament always relating to angels, always in the Old Testament. Sons of God, Old Testament are angels. That's called, by the way, expositional constancy of biblical interpretation. Sons of God, Old Testament, angels. It's interesting, New Testament, sons of God, brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. So the sons of God saw, the word saw here means that they stared, gazed upon, what's the word? Sons of God saw that these women, the sons of God stared at them, a gawked, that's the word I'm looking for, gawked at them, were fixated on their appearance and or conduct. The daughters of men that they were beautiful, the word in Hebrew is that they were arousing. So something's up. These fallen angels, or maybe they haven't, well, no, no, no, they're fallen, I believe, or at least they fall in this thing, where these women are unusually brazen and seductive, and they caused among the sons of God a rousal. This is creepy, okay? And where am I? And they took the word Lakhakh carried away, caught, seized upon them, and made them wives, brought them into submission, forced them into the Marriage Act. That's what the Bible translates the word wives, it means much more than baking cookies. It doesn't mean baking cookies. It means the stuff that comes after baking cookies for themselves and for all whom they chose came upon seized or stole, and the Lord said, watch God's response. So the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were arousing them, and they seized upon these sons of or these daughters of mankind and captured them to be their intimate partners. So that's, think of this manifestation, think about this. So it was so radical that God's response is in the next verse. My spirit will not always strive with man, for he is indeed flesh, yet his days shall be 120 years. In other words, in 120 years, from what happened, something's going to come. Next verse, there were giants on the face of the earth in those days, and also afterward, when, think of this, when the sons of God came into the daughters of mankind, men, and they bore to them children. Those were mighty men who were of old men of renown. They're also referred to in numerous places in scripture, most famously Nephilim, imim, zimim, anachem. They all mean the fallen ones, the fallen ones. When a male and a female get together, no matter how bad their relationship is, no women give birth to giants, fallen ones. Remarkable. Deuteronomy chapter 2 verse 10, the imim, imim, had dwelt there in times past a people as great and as numerous as the tall of the anachem. They were also regarded as giants. This is Deuteronomy 3, 10, 3, 12, like the anachem, but the Moabites called them imim. The horrorites formerly called dwelt in seer, but the descendants of Issa dispossessed them and destroyed them from before them, and they dwelt in their place just as Israel did in the land of their possession or the promised land which the Lord gave them. References of giants. Giant, strange people. We know in other parts of scripture that the Bible says they have six fingers and six toes. Let me get rid of this. Continue not. More on this. I read to you Ezekiel 28, I read to you Isaiah 14 and our previous gathering on part one of this. Check this out. Luke chapter 17 verse 22, Luke, New Testament, chapter 17, beginning of verse 22. Then Jesus said to his disciples, the days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man and you will not see it. For they will say to you, look here or look there, do not believe them and do not go out and follow them. For as lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven unto the other part of heaven, so also shall the coming of the Son of Man be in his day. But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation. And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it also be in the days of the Son of Man. They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise, as it was also in the days of Lot, they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built. But on the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimmed stone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so, it will be in the day when the Son of Man, that's Jesus Christ, is revealed. The days of Sodom and Gomorrah and the days of Lot know all this of hell, have a lot of things to describe them of and to define them of, but Jesus is in the last days it's going to be like that. But what was going on in the days of Lot? Bizarre sexuality and what was going on in the days of Noah? Bizarre sexuality again. Homosexuality in one part and what the Bible calls the going after strange flesh in the other. It's very, very remarkable. I'm going to say this particular thing for the end. You see, Jack, I've never heard this stuff before. I know, but listen, the reason why you never heard it before is because either you read parts of the Bible and you forgot or you were not taught about the difference between angels and demons. Watch this. And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, they did not stay within their confines or the parameters for which they were created. But left their dwelling place. He, God, has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day. Wow. Interesting, verse 7. Jew chapter 1, verse 6, and verse 7. As Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them in similar manner like 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 Jesus said, in the last days, it's going to be like Sodom and Gomorrah, Jude tells us one of the defining, prominent sins is that there was something of strange flesh that is being consumed if I can put it to you that way. Genesis chapter 6, verse 1, as I read earlier, listen to this. Now it came to pass when men began to multiply in the face of the earth. Remember that, that daughters were born to them, that sons of God saw that the daughters of men, that they were beautiful, and they took them to be their wives of all they chose, and the Lord said to them, my spirit will not always strive with man forever, for indeed his flesh, yet his day shall be 120. There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came into the daughters of men, and they bore to them children, those were the mighty men who were evolved men of renown. So I read that portion to you twice for context. Watch what we have here. Jesus said, regarding the demons, remember the man that I mentioned earlier, the demoniac who was possessed in Gadara, the demons said out of that possessed man, Jesus, we know who you are. Have you come to torment us before the time? And Jesus said, what is your name? And out of the man's mouth came what is probably the sound of a collective voices, Legion. The name is Legion for we are many. And they make a strange request of Jesus. Whatever is inside of this man, this demon host, they said, will you send us into those pigs right there? Will you send us into those demons? I mean, into those, those, those pigs right there. And Jesus grants them their request. Why? Because the time had not yet come for their damnation. But Jesus delivers the man, but the demons go right into the pigs. Stop right here. Nowhere in the Bible do we see angels, holy or fallen, having the need to possess people, things, statues, idols or animals. But we do see this of demons. Okay, listen, a demon is always looking for a place to live. It seems as though they need to be invited in, though, they seem, it appears that they need to be invited. Open door, could be pornography, could be drugs, could be paranormal, it could be witchcraft, whitecraft, it could be the delving into things like necromancy and satanism of various types. It doesn't matter, it's an entry. It appears that when people open themselves up to things that are forbidden by God, demons come in through that door into people's lives. And according to the scripture, demons, whenever they're inhabiting a person, certainly we see this in the four gospels. The demons are referred to as exactly that, demons, not angels, not sons of God, but demons. Here's my take. The Bible says that there were giants in the land before the flood and after the flood. Fallen ones, I should say, they don't have to be giants, but in this case they are, because that's the need. The key is Nephilim, fallen ones. If the Bible says that they were in the world before the flood and after the flood, before the flood, when the flood came, what happened? Everything died. Where did the giants, where did they go when they died? If the sons of God were angels, and they fell by having sexual union with mortal women, human women, and the children born to them were anomalies. They were unusual men of renown. They had six fingers and six toes on each foot in hand. They were huge archaeology, by the way, proves this in, well, I'm trying to think of where it's, Gamla. You can look this up. Google it. The tombstones or the sarcophagus plural in Gamla in the Golan Heights. Go look at them. Why would somebody have coffins that are 14 feet long? You can actually go there. You can actually see them. You can touch them. It's an amazing place. Gamla. That said, if angels had sex with humans, and the human women gave birth to these strange, the strange Goliath type of people, Anakin, sons of Anakin, which Goliath was one of those, when they die, where do they go? When their body dies, if they're not fully angel, and they're not fully human, spiritually speaking, their body dies. Their body was swept away in the flood. Where does, where does their soul go? Their oddities to say the least, and yet the Bible warns us, they were in the world before, because of the union between the sons of God and the daughters of men. They were in the world before the flood, from Genesis 6 forward, and then must have happened again after the flood, because it says there were Nephilim fallen ones that entered the world a second time after the flood. You see, check that's insane. Call it what you want, but the Bible says they were there before the flood and after the flood. When they die, where do they go? Spiritually speaking, what is their spiritual destination? I believe this is my personal take, because angels in the Bible were created by God, and some angels fell, they're still called fallen angels. People will like to try to describe demons as fallen angels, but it's not consistent. Demons seem to be weaker than fallen angels. Fallen angels seem to appear and disappear, like good angels can appear and disappear. The Bible tells us in the book of Hebrews, be careful how you treat strangers, because without knowing, you could be speaking to an angel and not know it. Wow. Demons seem to need a statue, an animal, or a human, to possess, to make a home. And Jesus said, when a demon leaves a man, he goes out looking for another place to live, and wander through waterless places. Why did Jesus say that? Go look it up. Jesus said, demons when they leave a man will go look for another host in waterless places. It seems to me that they're terrified of water. The pigs ran into the sea of Galilee and the pigs drowned, so now these demons lost their possessed host. Where did they go? The giants then fallen ones were swept away in the flood when their bodies died. Where did those souls spirits go? After the flood, it continued on. Where have those spirits been going? I believe that when these human hybrids die, I believe that explains the spirit of demons, the demon spirit. I don't believe demons are fallen angels. I believe demons are some sort of sub-order of malevolent powers that are described, or can be described as the souls of those hybrids, but I don't believe they're fallen angels. We don't know, of course, we don't know how many, but isn't it wild that the book of Daniel tells us, and this is where we'll start to end here. Daniel chapter 2, verses 42 and 43, talks about the future. The future from today. This is not in the past. As the toes of the feet, the image, were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. Daniel was shown a vision of the last world governing empire before the return of Christ. This will manifest, by the way, during the tribulation period. As you saw, iron mixed with ceramic clay, they, they, personal pronoun, not it, they will mingle. They will reconnect. They will weave with the seed of man. But they will not adhere to one another, just like watch, just like iron doesn't mix with clay. One thing we know for sure right now, we're not talking about iron and clay, not mixing. He says, just like iron and clay, do not mix together and stay connected. Neither will those who reconnect with the seed of man be able to hold it all together. It's going to happen again. Will there be giants? I don't think so. I don't think there'll be giants, but they will be Nephilim. They will be fallen ones. But maybe they'll be fallen and they'll be expert in not building pyramids and not building stonehenge or not building Easter Island or not building new name at weird things. What if they manifest themselves in the last days as beyond brilliant politicians who bring about a governing world empire, brilliant theologians that bring about a one-world church, a one-world worship system? What about them being brilliant enough to pull off a one-world currency, Revelation 1313? What about these things? What about if they appeared as giants, the Nephilim as giants in the days when giants for war as David and Goliath, giants to do extraordinary things that caused them to be men of renown, giants who David's mighty men of valor had names for them in the Bible by name and killed them. Strange odd beings where even I think it's first and second Samuel could be first and second kings, forgive me. But among David's mighty men of valor, one of the guys is given a, so to speak, a combat award for having killed two men who were lion-like men and David's soldier killed them both. Very strange stuff. Don't know if we have the answers exactly. For me right now, my theology is this. There's good angels and there's bad angels. God created all angels good. Some angels went bad, so bad that some of them went after unsanctioned flesh, not permitted, not allowed, strange flesh. The result were men of renown giants who lived in the earth, six fingers, six toes, massive and height, exceeding nine feet tall, easily, Goliath. Evidence, the tombs in Israel, the sarcophagus of those that were somehow inhabiting the region of the northern Golan or Golanii in the area of Gamla. Guess what? In the area of Golan, in your Old Testament, it tells you that giants lived in that region as well as Gaza in the Old Testament, as well as Gath and Ash Dodd. Remarkable. So I wanted to bring this up because you wanted to bring it up. I may mention of some of these things sometime back and we had an overwhelming response of you guys asking for more and being more in-depth. It's impossible for me to go in-depth. I can only tell you right now that I've given you enough to get you started. So here's the wrap up. Go research the sons of God in the Old Testament and you're going to need to be, listen, you're going to need to be discerning. Don't ask Wikipedia. That's for lame brains. Don't do that. That's lazy. That's for lazy people. You got to get into some books and you got to read various ones because you're going to hear various interpretations, which is fine. You've got to pick one that's most consistent with the Bible. For example, you are going to be told by some scholars, though I don't care about their names, their logic makes no sense. They will say things like this, wow, it's no big deal. The sons of God, they were the holy, happy, godly descendants of Seth. And the daughters of men, those were promiscuous women. And the descendants of Seth, they backslid and they had sex with these promiscuous girls who were brazenly what's the word attractive or seductive. And they had babies, happens every day. Really? When somebody's backslidden has sex with somebody who's not a Christian and they have babies that are born giants with six fingers and six toes that are nine feet tall. When they grow up, I don't think so. Last time I saw an unbeliever get together with a believer in sex and have a baby. I didn't see any weirdos come out. So that's a strange description. It's a strange excuse that doesn't work. And yet you're going to your great, great scholars say that just doesn't work. It's not consistent. It makes no sense. I want to commend to you a guy by the name of, well, I hope I got this right. Robert Govet, G-O-V-E-T-T. I think it's Robert Govet. Charles Spurgeon loved reading Govet. And maybe you can find it as a PDF. It's hard to find. I own a copy, but maybe you can find the PDF. It is Robert Govet. Again, if I get the first name wrong, look at G-O-V-E-T-T. Govet dissertation on the Nephilim. It was written. I do believe somewhere around maybe like 1812, 1820. It is found in the back end of Govet's Isaiah commentary. His great commentary, by the way, on the book of Isaiah at the end, a particular publisher inserted his dissertation on the Giants. Go check it out. It's pretty reliable stuff. Anyway, I've given you enough. We're at a time. Know the truth. Stay in your Bible. Follow Jesus Christ. Know the Word of God. I go like this in here. Watch out where you go to church. When you go to church, have your Bible open. Judge everything you're hearing from the pulpit. And no matter what you hear from the pulpit, read your Bible for yourself. There's no excuses. I don't care if you, I don't care if your pastor is a brother of Satan. Whatever that guy is saying, you should be the one judging what he's talking about from reading the Bible yourself. Don't be deceived. Don't be deceived. The truth will be your greatest defense against deception. Stay tuned until next time. May the Lord Jesus Christ come. Amen. God bless. See you.
