Gap Theory

Giants were used then, now its not giants but simply people manipulated genetically to be more advanced than homo sapiens, but still its the same principle.
Ok..I have said before though, that there are thousands of giants living today...alive today...And many many people who encounter them daily. There are actual reports of American and Japanes soldiers being eaten by giants near the end of the second world war...Guadalcanal. (You'll probably want to know where LOL) The humans of that area have encounters with those giants on an almost daily basis. Today!
 
This does sound like bible school teaching...Most of which is opinion and not necessarily truth. Sorry... One thing I have learned in my forty four years as a son of God....One MUST learn by the Spirit of God,and set aside intellect as the first step to learning the truth of Gods Word. The intellect CANNOT understand the things of the Spirit. The Word is spirit, thus intellect MUST be set aside so the Spirit can teach your spirit.

How about proving everything with His help by the word of God? It is the only way we can progress in a discussion.

What you are attesting to is not written plainly in His words to have had occur.

If you consider His words as true, then how can He say in His words what was the first day if there was a first day at some other time? Why establish the evening and the morning for the first day to mark that first day for what a day was unless it was actually the very first day in Creation?

3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

There you are. Day one. Exactly as written in the Word. How's that? :smile:
 
In the beginning, God created all things. But some fallen angels trying to be a cheap imitation of God creating things, created the half human, half fallen angel that we called the "giants" that were killed in the flood, except the few that were aquatic and I dont doubt those were destroyed in other ways and then those dead giants became evil spirits roaming the land angry at God and man. God did not create the giants. But even the fallen angels didnt do what God did, he created everything out of nothing and they only modified the life He had already created.

Nothing was created by any angel nor by fallen angel except by the Word of God.

John 1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

All births from the womb is from the Lord.

Psalm 12:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Angels were not created to have families; So even in a fallen state, they still cannot reproduce.

Mark 12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? 25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

The sons of God cannot be angels nor would they still be called as sons of God as being fallen angels. The sons of God can only refer to Israel's family tree; their roots; stemming from Seth's bloodline as replacing what should have been Abel's godly lineage.

God would not join an angel nor a fallen angel in "holy matrimony" for that woman to be called a wife in His word to that "angel" or "fallen angel".

Only the Lord can help you see the Book of Enoch for the fraud that it is in order to disregard it because it is running against the truths in His words in the accepted scripture of the 66 Books of Bible.

Pretty good if you take those verses at its actual meaning that the very first day of creation, God commanded that there be light and establishing that first day of creation as 24 hours as there was evening and morning that very first day.

Hence there were no other days before that first day and so no gap between the first verse and the following verses because that would cause the following verses to deny the very first verse as having ever happened.

Therefore the first verse is telling the reader a truth about how God created everything and the following verses goes about explaining how that truth came about.

Hmmmm You said...."The sons of God cannot be angels nor would they still be called as sons of God as being fallen angels. The sons of God can only refer to Israel's family tree; their roots; stemming from Seth's bloodline as replacing what should have been Abel's godly lineage." You did not learn that from the Spirit. This doctrine came about only four hundred years ago. Humans breeding with humans do not produce giants but produce after their own kind...HUMANS.

And then you said...Angels cannot reproduce...You did not learn that from the spirit either...You used this verse...Mark 12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? 25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.
Do you see it? It does NOT say they cannot reproduce. It says they do not marry.
You said. "God would not join an angel nor a fallen angel in "holy matrimony" for that woman to be called a wife in His word to that "angel" or "fallen angel".
Of course you are right about that, but who said God married them? Nobody....The fallen ones took basically any woman they desired, whether or not they were already married, and kept them for wives, breeding with them. Now you have crossbreeding which produced the giants...I don't think that was the desired outcome but that's what they wound up with...Giant kids. As to them being the sons of God, look in strongs...Sons of God were created beings....There were NO sons of God that were human, until humans got born of God after Jesus paid the sin penalty for us. Only angels were called 'sons of God' in the Old Covenant.

Actually, the Book of Enoch is a very accurate history book and if it was a fraud as you claim, it would not be quoted by the bible.

You said that you prefer to learn from the Holy Spirit....So? Learn! The seven days spoken of in Genesis 1 are the seven days of reconstruction...Not the first seven days of history. Where does the bible say that they were the first days of the world? It tells of what God did that week. No more.

You know that for a certainty then? When, in the history of man, did the fallen ones come to Earth? Which day? How did the Earth become without form, and void? 1:1 says 'God created' It does not say 'God stockpiled the parts for later assembly.'
It seems that you are reading into the verses something that is not there...The word Created simply means He started and finished the creation. You can see that the word is in past tense...That means the job was completed...Then verse two...
 
Solo una palabra. Sin lugar a duda. Nuestro Dios es un buen Dios! Abrazos sobre ti hermano.

Only one word. For sure. Our God is a good God! Hugs on you brother.
Bueno, pero ahora tenemos que volvernos al ingles para los otros de este lugar...
Good, but now we have to return to English for the others in this place...

De acuerdo, pero ¿cómo dices LOL en español?
All right, but how do you say LOL in Spanish?
 
This" thing our friend said keeps coming back at me...I don't know how many times I've 'heard' it...

"Pretty good if you take those verses at its actual meaning"

If you take those verses at it's actual meaning? One would think that God could write something exactly the way He means it, but according to the reasoning of some people He is not. What He says has to be filtered through our noggins and interpreted. Ever wonder what He feels about that?
I'm a word weaver... I know how I would feel if someone insulted me like that..How would you feel?
 
De acuerdo, pero ¿cómo dices LOL en español?
All right, but how do you say LOL in Spanish?
¿Cómo se ríe en voz alta en español?
How does a person laugh aloud in Spanish?
No puedo hacer major que eso.
I cannot do better than that.
 
I think the gap is between the 1st and 2nd verse, The word "was" in the 2nd verse should read "became."
