Why I am so agitated at the teaching of Nephelim being the product of devils mating with humans is not only because it is false but also because it is blasphemous.
To assign the ability of devils to impregnate human women the same way God did with Mary is to elevate the devils to the level of gods, making the devils as powerful as God.
Devils have no human seed, they don't even have angel seed to be able to procreate with one another.
Only God the Father has the ability to come over a human woman and make her pregnant, it was a miracle only God could do.
Mark 12:24-25 "…24 Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? 25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven."
God also said that each species mates with only its own kind. Spirit beings cannot mate with human flesh.
1 Corinthians 15:38-40 "…38 But God gives it a body as He has designed, and to each kind of seed, He gives its own body. 39 Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another. 40 There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the splendor of the heavenly bodies is of one degree, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is of another.…"
All the arguments concerning the Nephelim as being the product of relations between devils and humans come from the blasphemous book of Enoch.
There are many false teachings in that book, even blasphemous teachings that fly against the Word of God.
Satan is busy confusing people with false teachings, sadly many of which are becoming popular in gatherings today. It makes sense that in these last days of deception these false teachings would be entering the churches and seminaries.
We need to be very discerning and vigilent to know the Word of God, evaluating closely everything teachers say today.
Just some thoughts and warnings to reject listening to those who use pagan books to add to the Bible.
When God said in the Bible the men of God took the daughters of men He was describing men who were God's men and pagan women who worshiped false gods. It was as simple as that.
When someone uses pagan writings for any level of wisdom to interpret the Bible they run the risk of seriously twisting the Bible.
A good example of language changing over the years to mean something different for different eras are the words "devastated" and "decimated."
In recent years the word "decimated" has been changed to mean destroyed. The original meaning of "decimated" even as recent as one generation ago meant "to reduce by one-tenth." If a city is decimated by a bomb it means that only one-tenth of the city was ruined. This also means that 90% of the city was not ruined.
The meaning of decimate in our generation has been changed to mean destroyed, it is incorrect but is being accepted with the new meaning.
If we were to read writing from a few generations ago the meaning could be misinterpreted to mean destroyed when only one-tenth was ruined.
We cannot take our meanings from archaic pagan manuscripts to interpret the Bible.
Chuck Missler was one who used pagan books such as the book of Enoch to interpret the meanings of words in the Bible. This is patently wrong and very misleading.
Matthew 15:9
"In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”
When a pagan book such as the book of Enoch teaches blasphemies it should not be used on any level to discern the truths of God. It doesn't matter if it's just about grammar or not, it is not to be sought for any information at all.
Romans 8:7
"For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot."
Matthew 15:8-9
“‘These people honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”
Be very careful who you listen to for wisdom, make sure they are not using pagan sources to prove Biblical truth.
