" There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. " (Genesis 6:4)

I've often wondered what that means.

Hard to say - it could mean humans were 'bigger' or it could mean in a power kinda way.

Im not a huge fan of the bible and its 'popular' interpretation - I into Darwinism lol Evolution and no fig leaves lol It could be that with dinosaurs being as big as some of them were - perhaps some menfolk were as well?

Hope you do not mind me, campfire, but it is quite the same we already had a discussion about in the "Angel pages" thread just below this one.

This is a reference to the "Nephilim". The so-called sons of God (I rather would see them as "creations" of god) are a reference to the Angels. Those that have been banned from heaven (so-called "fallen ones") came to earth and mingled with the daughters of men and their children were "giants".....the race of the Nephilim. Very famous offspring is Goliath, that have been slain by David. Also famous giants through all countries throughout the history. Mostly they appear in some kind of folk tales and mostly western countries folk tales. There is the saying about Finn McCool in Ireland and Grendel in Sweden etc.
And they are really men of reknown. The founders like Lucifer and the giants mentionned. They became legends and national heros.....in positive and negative aspects.

We should all know these "sons of God", literally "B'nai HaElohim , Sons of Elohim'," cannot be Godly angels because Godly angels would never intervene in God's creation, would never sexually mate with human women. To appeal to human women, these demonic beings had to have transformed themselves into attractive men while in this dimension; otherwise, the human women would have rejected their advances, and would have preferred the human men. Thus, we know these ungodly demons did appear as attractive men, similar to the Godly angels who appeared in Sodom to rescue Lot; these Godly angels were so attractive they raised the lust of the homosexual human men who populated Sodom and Gomorrah [Genesis 19]. The living result of this sexual union between ungodly demons and human womenwas the "giants", literally, Nephilim, a non-human race of creatures...

You see, God provided salvation from sin only for mankind, not for angels [1 Peter 1:10-12; Ephesians 3:9-10]. Therefore, if Satan could change mankind from the humans God created to a race of part-human and part-demon [Nephilim], he could thwart God's plan of Salvation, and he could prevent Messiah from arising. To prevent this take-over of the human race, God created the Flood, which destroyed all these beings. The occult world is very aware of this Nephilim, and of their demonic appearance at the End of the Age; Jesus did prophesy, "... as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." [Matthew 24:37]. Since God destroyed the world in the days of Noah because of the activities of the Nephilim, we can rest assured that they will be present at this time period when Antichrist is about to arise, and to support his activities once he is on the earth.
