God created people in His Image. His Image is Jesus Christ. Not no god forsaken monkey, ape, or gorilla that fits your evolutionary propoganda.

About the flood deal, You are only speaking of image. I take it you don't know to much on images. The gospel as a whole preaches about life in the soul, image as in life here on earth, and the spirit that we leave here when we die. The flood is only one aspect of life that is brought up. Excuse me, there are two other aspects left. When you cut life short the way you are all doing right now, you are leaving yourself to much room for deception with your own statements and beliefs.

Especially, when "the sons of God" were spiritual beings. You can't just leave out the spiritual part to make your conclusions fit your EARTHLY story. God is all about the life of the soul, life on earth, and the spirit life. When you cut out one of those of the three, it is counted as deception on your part. Your story begans to lack. INCOMPLETE.

As a Christian, I'm always amazed at the ways various religious sects interpret these verses. What really boggles my mind are the sects who insist that their interpretation is (must be) correct.

If you still believe in race, I guess it's possible that Black people have dark skin because they are *descendants* of the Nephilim. But they can only be Nephilim if all of them (at least the men) have as fathers the "sons of God". According to the bible, the Nephilim were the *male* progeny of the "sons of God" with "daughters of women", not the progeny of Nephilim and women.

Interestingly, the Nephilim were discovered by the Hebrews to be living in Canaan, not Africa (Num 13:33). But perhaps a group of Nephilim had migrated there.

You don't know what you're talking about.

The Nephilim were NOT humans, period. They aren't people from Africa.

No one *really* knows who/what the Nephilim are/were no matter how convincing their argument sounds. There are some theories, but nothing conclusive. There is very little mention of them in the bible and next to no other information to go on. What IS clear is that African people are NOT the Nephilim.

From the information available, the Nephilim *may* have been angels or other creatures that existed before humans. Some believe they were the "fallen angels", although I personally don't believe that whole "fallen angel" story. There IS good reason to believe that the Nephilim were "fallen", however, because the Hebrew root 'nephil' means 'to fall', but it is not clear in what context they are fallen. So the word Nephilim actually does mean "those who fell", but doesn't tell us much more than that.

one million) The starting of Gen is speakme approximately the construction of the heavens and the earth, no longer simply the earth. As we do not understand what Heaven appears like the sunshine and darkness is for them. The earth then got here into play after the expanse among heaven and earth occurred. The earth's gentle supply is the solar. It isn't Heaven's. two) For the lads to be circumcised used to be a Jewish factor to inform the change among a Jew and a Pagan. We haven't any manner of understanding if they'd herbs for anguish or no longer. My son used to be circumcised whilst he used to be born again in 1989 and they did not provide some thing for numbing the subject then both. He did recover from it. By that afternoon he had no main issue with it in any respect. three) The two viewers had been God's angels and Lot knew it. Also, because the guys of town desired the male viewers for unnatural acts, I took it to realise that Lot knew they would not take his daughters so he knew they might be reliable from the guys of town. four) This used to be see you later in the past and do not forget again in Bible occasions they selected spouse's from their possess households. Cousins married cousins for plenty of generations. Adam used to be a ultimate guy, no ailments until sin occurred. We are to this point eliminated from perfection it isn't humorous so now we have many ailments. They didn't have melanoma, AIDS or such a lot of different lethal ailments like we do. And sure, Cain took one among his sisters as a spouse. Lot's daughters notion they had been the one persons alive in order that they desired to hold the human race. Their sons additionally grew to become very improtant guys in God's Plan of matters. Remember additionally that guy took many better halves earlier than Jesus' day. This used to be to get the populace up. A time did come whilst it used to be not proper. Good for you for studying the Bible and through all method maintain asking questions, that's how we study.

Uhhh...that would be Nephilim.

And...NO, they're not.

Genesis 6 (New International Version)

4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.
***********
The Nephilim were the children hybreds of the Angels and human women.

More correctly the children of the Grigori and the human women; moreover, Grigori translates into Igigi which is a partial translation to Annunaki meaning something to the effect of 'those of royal blood'[1] or 'princely offspring'[2] or "heaven and earth" (Anu-na-ki).

All of the Nephilim were destroyed...as it so states in the Book of Enoch Chapter 10

1 Then said the Most High, the Holy and Great One spake, and sent Uriel to the son of Lamech,

2 and said to him: Go to Noah and tell him in my name "Hide thyself!" and reveal to him the end that is approaching: that the whole earth will be destroyed, and a deluge is about to come

3 upon the whole earth, and will destroy all that is on it. And now instruct him that he may escape

4 and his seed may be preserved for all the generations of the world. And again the Lord said to Raphael: Bind Azazel hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness: and make an opening

5 in the desert, which is in Dudael, and cast him therein. And place upon him rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with darkness, and let him abide there for ever, and cover his face that he may

6,7 not see light. And on the day of the great judgement he shall be cast into the fire. And heal the earth which the angels have corrupted, and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may heal the plague, and that all the children of men may not perish through all the secret things that the

8 Watchers have disclosed and have taught their sons. And the whole earth has been corrupted

9 through the works that were taught by Azazel: to him ascribe all sin. And to Gabriel said the Lord: Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates, and against the children of fornication: and destroy [the children of fornication and] the children of the Watchers from amongst men [and cause them to go forth]: send them one against the other that they may destroy each other in

10 battle: for length of days shall they not have. And no request that they (i.e. their fathers) make of thee shall be granted unto their fathers on their behalf; for they hope to live an eternal life, and

11 that each one of them will live five hundred years. And the Lord said unto Michael: Go, bind Semjaza and his associates who have united themselves with women so as to have defiled themselves

12 with them in all their uncleanness. And when their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth, till the day of their judgement and of their consummation, till the judgement that is

There is no truth to your question... I am not saying that some black women did not mate with some of those angels and gave birth to those Nemphlim... But it was the average Black Man and Women is what destroyed all of those Nemphlim, And some angels with Gods help.. But to believe that all black men and women are descendant of them is totally erroneous. Since all of the Nemphlim were destroyed..............
Another thing to remember that there is not one human being that ever inhabited this earth that does not have black ancestors... So if what you say is true which it is not then you too are a descendant of Nemphlims.............................................
Now I know that thought of having black ancestors my not sit well with you... But it is a scientific truth that all men and women on this earth will just have to live with.............................

I had to look up "Why are people different colors?" for my son. The current thought is that whites are descended from blacks who are descended from whites. Of course, this is someone's educated guess.

no way, they aren't the offspring of fallen angels.
They all died in the flood - that was the point of the whole flood.
