The following discussion took place due to the video Special LIVE report – Biblical Giants with guest Gary Wayne.
A certain PracticalDailyLiving commented
In depth, diligent Bible study over a long period time while referencing the earliest known manuscripts and asking God to guide us and reveal His Truth is necessary if we don’t want to be led astray. We have to let the Bible define its own terms and it is important to clarify what the Bible is referring to regarding the “sons of God” as well as the “daughters of men.” See: Difficult Bible Passages at #2 > https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/spiritual/home_study/difficult_study.htm
and if interested: The False Doctrine of the “Serpent Seed” known as “Nephilim” – -https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/spiritual/home_study/The%20FALSE%20Doctrine%20of%20the%20Serpent%20Seed.pdf
I, Ken Ammi, replied
For sons of God see Job 38:7. “Serpent Seed” generically refers to the false doctrine that Cain is Satan’s son, it has nothing to do with Nephilim.

The term ‘sons of God’ has nothing to do with “Nephilim,” – that’s right. But your belief that Nephilim etc.. are the PHYSICAL offspring of human beings who were “possessed” by evil angelic beings is not Biblical. There is no evidence that angels, good or evil are able to procreate.
It is correct to say that human beings who worship/follow Satan and army of demons are Satan’s SPIRITUAL offspring because they believe in him rather than the Creator. To base your argument on one or even two texts is superficial scholarship, at best, and, at worst, can and does lead people away from the Truth found in God’s Word. God gave us the whole Bible and He wants us to study it, in depth, diligently, repeatedly, over a long period of time.
Job 1:6,7 “Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (the adversary) came also among them.
“And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth and from walking up and down in it.”
Notice that Satan is mentioned separately from the ‘sons of God’. Satan had already rebelled against God, long before humanity was created. The angels who DID NOT rebel are the ‘sons of God’ as well as the human beings who believe in, follow and place all their trust in Jesus Christ, the True God of Heaven, in Human form.
“For as many as are led by the Spirit (Breath) of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:14
see also: Philippians 2:15, 1 John 3:1 and 1 John 3:2

Unsure why you wrote your first sentence but “The term ‘sons of God’ has” only “to do with ‘Nephilim’” in that the former fathered the latter.
Unsure why you refer to “human beings who were ‘possessed’ by evil angelic beings” as being my “belief” since I’ve not only never claimed any such a thing but have argued against it.
Evidence that Angels are able to procreate is in Gen 6 (in conjunction, see Jude and 2 Peter 2).
When you refer to me as leading people away from the Truth found in God’s Word and imply that I don’t study it, in depth, diligently, repeatedly, over a long period of time you’re being shockingly worldly in passing an unrighteous judgment: please repent.
I’m unsure what Job 1:6,7 has to do with “Satan had already rebelled against God, long before humanity was created.”

In my earlier comment re “your belief that human beings who were ‘possessed’ by evil angelic beings” I was mistaken in who I was communicating with. I mistook you as the person being interviewed by George of The Reveal Report re Biblical Giants. My sincere apologies.
In my original comment, I posted links to two separate in-depth Bible studies. The first link I will repost here: Difficult Bible passages – -https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/spiritual/home_study/difficult_study2.htm – – See #2 re Nephilim.
The second link was re: the “Serpent Seed” doctrine – – for anyone interested in sorting out this issue that is currently being talked about more widely. I never said this doctrine was the same as the Nephilim topic. Satan wants us to believe that there are human beings with angelic “DNA.” Some of the people who hold power over humanity from behind the scenes believe they have the right to rule because of their “DNA.” Satan has something for everyone and he’s very good at deceiving people because he’s been doing it for thousands of years. See below link re Why Did God Create Human Beings…
In addition, “An important way to study the Bible is by subject – finding ALL the texts or passages on a specific subject such as “What happens when we die?” so we can understand everything the Bible says on that certain subject.
But the most important step in studying the Bible is to pray that the Lord will guide you in searching His Word, because ALL wisdom comes from God. There is NO understanding of God’s Word unless He opens our mind.” Excerpt from – – How to study the Bible and find truth – – https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/studybible2.htm
Finally, here are two additional studies that will inform your understanding if you so choose: Why Did God Create Human Beings Into a Universe Already Heavily Contaminated With Sin? https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/humans.htm; Alien Invasion Hoax – – https://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/spiritual/home_study/alien_hoax.htm
All the best to you on the journey ahead.

No worries about the mistaken identity.
There WERE Nephilim with Angelic “DNA” but no more, no one does post-flood.
I’ve no idea what those other links have to do with our discussion but thanks anyhow.
See my book “Fifty Shades of Gray Aliens.”
Such ended the discussion.
