Uncharacteristically, I didn’t jot down the name of the vid under which the following discussion ensued but I did jot the URL yet, “This video isn’t available anymore” so, there’s that.
In any case, a certain R B commented
See Rob Skiba’s BIBLICAL answer
I, Ken Ammi, replied
Skiba’s un-BIBLICAL answer implies that God failed since He wanted to be rid of them, sent the flood, but missed the genetic loophole.
R B
Not at all. What is written in the Bible cannot and is not un biblical, And it Clearly shows genetic lineage which would be watered down over time and was then eradicated by the Israelites.
We have no disagreement not sure what you were talking about
Ken Ammi
Of course, “Skiba’s un-BIBLICAL answer implies that God failed since He wanted to be rid of them, sent the flood, but missed the genetic loophole.” That Nephilim “genetic lineage…would be watered down over time” isn’t biblical and neither is that it “was then eradicated by the Israelites.” That’s the sort of stuff that Rob made up or, rather, parroted.
R B
The Bible says what it says, so pay attention – all flesh was corrupted except Noah and his wife/mother of his children and his children. However, Noah’s daughter-in-law’s we’re not his offspring, they would fall under all flesh. God did not fail, and the children of Israel wiped out the rest of the Nephilim after the flood. Heiser teaches the Bible teaches the earth is flat under a dome and not moving, which is correct, and then rejects its teachings. You’re welcome
Ken Ammi
Friend, the Bible does not say “all flesh was corrupted except Noah and his wife/mother of his children and his children.”
Now, you’re inventing a loophole to get Nephilim through the flood—implying that God missed that loophole—based on one single sentence in an evil report stated by unreliable guys whom God rebuked. Thus, there’s no need to invent such theories.
Now, you say “the children of Israel wiped out the rest of the Nephilim after the flood” but there’s no indication of that at all since, again, you’re also basing that on an evil report stated by unreliable guys whom God rebuked.
You will ultimately find out that the entire theory of post-flood Nephilim, and all that comes with, is based on that one single sentence.
R B
Yes the Bible does say all flesh was corrupted except Noah and his generations, therefore his wife would not be corrupted if her children were not corrupted. Furthermore, basing something on a single sentence from the Bible not contradicted anywhere else in the Bible is just fine. No invention of anything needed we simply have the word of God which says exactly what I said it says. If you don’t want to believe that, you don’t have to.
Ken Ammi
But see, you’re beginning by actually believing and promulgating an evil report by utterly unreliable guys whom God rebuked and you are then inventing ways for them to be right.
This isn’t in the least bit “basing something on a single sentence from the Bible not contradicted anywhere else in the Bible” since many, many, many times the patriarchs, Moses, etc., etc., etc. were told about the peoples who lives around the land and in the land and no one who’s reliable—including God Himself—never said one single word about Nephilim, ever.
Even then original, reliable, taken as is, report in Num 13 mentions them even though it lists the people groups that were encountered.
We simply have the word of God which says exactly what I said it says. If you don’t want to believe that, you should.
R B
the Bible does mention the NEPHILIM. So wrong on that. Start there and educate yourself further.
Ken Ammi
Well, since I wrote some nine [circa a dozen by now] books on Nephilology then I’m aware “the Bible does mention the NEPHILIM” but I’m unsure why you wrote that.
That brought the discussion to and end as no more replies were forthcoming. One of those books features Skiba, Nephilim and Giants as per Pop-Researchers: A Comprehensive Consideration of the claims of I.D.E. Thomas, Chuck Missler, Dante Fortson, Derek Gilbert, Brian Godawa, Patrick Heron, Thomas Horn, Ken Johnson, L.A. Marzulli, Josh Peck, CK Quarterman, Steve Quayle, Rob Skiba, Gary Wayne, Jim Wilhelmsen, et al.
