I was with him until he denied the existence of giants. There are dozens of archeological sites that possess bones of giants as well as traces of the same Babylonia society. Everything else makes absolute sense and I love his bringing forth of the word.
I think this is an older sermon. I, too, believe they did produce monsters/giants. It was a race of hybrid beings. They were born of flesh, and could die, just like Jesus was born of woman, flesh, but his spirit was immortal. Demons are those spirits that once were the in human / angelic bodies. Before the End Days God promised to unseal these hidden things. John MacArthur is a very sound preacher, but not in total knowledge of all the mysteries of the Bible or God. No human being is. He is very good at explaining the Bible.He was probably taught the Sethite version in seminary. I’m grateful God is revealing to those looking each day. God bless.
I just found this video and haven’t listened yet but God wiped the whole earth clean in the flood however we know the giants existed after the flood. I don’t know where they came from but they existed. I want to know what species lived before the flood. God didn’t like them.
Yup and more in the Bible than he quoted and the historical Book of Enoch that explains it all. Alexander Pagani, Trey Smith, Isaiah Saldivar and Kevin Zadai all explain this better than John - and suddenly SO MUCH MORE makes sense for the times of antiquity/Old Testament!!
As someone who grew up with weak Christian leaders who were more than ready to compromise the word of God, it is such a blessing to hear someone as bold in the word of God as MacArthur. His words come off as harsh sometimes but so do Paul’s and so do Jesus’s!
@@dantommo4797 I don't understand when people say "end of days" -- isn't it more accurate just to say "no more people living on Earth" if one believes the Bible? The Earth and possibly other living things in the unimaginably large universe can go right on living without us, right? We are definitely NOT at the center of the universe. One more question: So is the very real possibility of an asteroid striking the Earth and wiping out the larger mammals (including us) ruled OUT by Biblical prophecy? This mammalian extinction could be over in less than a month btw.
@@dantommo4797 does not make any difference for a persons salivation. As long as they believe in accordance with John 3:16. For we know not the hour. Mathew 24: 42 Mathew 25: 13 God bless
When I was a kid I was so afraid of death I used to ask God to take me the way he took Enoch 😂😂😂. That was my motivation for serving God. Thank God for his mercy that I now have the right motives for serving him. 😂😂
Cy esse’ says I felt worse than that about death thinking well I don’t want to be buried or go in tomb maybe if it was like glass like Snow White. How about strongs concordance or shepherds chapel pastors Arnold a nd his son - brilliant.
It's written that His children will not see death. You will simply "step" into the presence of Jesus who will hug you with great love you have never felt.
Remember my brothers and sisters we are still here so the work never ends we must spread the gospel to our family and friends and to all but as long as we can spread it it's not the end
Praise JESUS! We're not going to be killed for saying Yahweh but for JESUS. JESUS is the only name that casts out satan. Satan can say Yahweh all day long but he cannot say JESUS. It's a ploy of the one world religion to remove JESUS from our speech and writings. Only satan stops one from saying/writing JESUS. Don't be led down the wrong path and don't get used to using any other name but JESUS ✝️
I have come to the conclusion that McMarthur presents here a long time ago through my time in the Bible. This is by far the best take that I have ever heard on it. Especially the part about how it was about man seeking to be gods, which is evident in history all the way up to the present. It's still going on today. Hollywood and the music industry, the promise of fortune and fame. The demons laugh at us for how guillable man is and continues to be.
I find chuck missler lecture on this deeper and more satisfactory. As words like giants, fallen ones, nephilim are important for us to understand. As it will come back according to jesus
Absolutely! That’s why this topic is getting so much attention. The Fathers is trying to CAUSE us to understand, because we are in Days of Noah Part 2.
It's worth noting that from the line of Cain you see the development of culture. In other words, Cain's descendants are noted for their works. Seth's descendants are noted for begetting life, which was God's command to Adam and Eve. Similar to Cain bringing the fruit of his labor while Abel brought a living sacrifice. God established the shedding of blood to cover sin when he gave them garments made from skins to cover them.
"Seth's descendants are noted for begetting life" What are you talking about? Certain of Seth's descendants are known for being the line of Christ, however all who are alive today are Seth's descendants and all of Seth's descendants who weren't in the line of Noah were largely unknown.
@@dantommo4797 no one may know the day nor hour. It sure would’ve seemed like end of times to the Christians alive during Roman persecution, it would’ve seemed like end of times whenever a massive catastrophe or war broke out, and it absolutely must’ve seemed like end of times during both of the World Wars. Careful with what you see online, lots of shady “wisdom” but it doesn’t hurt to always strive to strengthen your spiritual relationship. You may or may not live to see what’s in Revelation but you will 100% experience death regardless. Look into the various translations and interpretations of scripture. Some is eye opening, some is terrifying, but most is hopeful
Why would an all powerful loving God even require a sacrifice, knowing how the early human must be struggling wouldnt he want them to have ALL the fruit of their efforts.
Hateful words? Let's guess: You are gay or "transgender". If you were born as a male, you are ultra feminine, and have a nose ring, and you've got black nail polish on your fingernails. If you were born as a female, you are at least 350 lbs, stand 4'10, have florescent colored hair, have the nose ring, blah blah blah. Very cliche.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel, you surly spend a lot of time listening to John McArthur, as well disparaging him. You sound like one that’s committed to the cult of Catholicism, the false religion that I was raised in before coming to the knowledge of God’s truth. Hopefully you’ll find this truth, as well, someday before it’s too late for you.
The writings of Enoch that were discovered amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls give great insight into what transpired in Genesis 6. It seems clear to Biblical scholars that the Book of Enoch was known by Jews, because a short section of 1 Enoch (1:9) is cited in the New Testament Epistle of Jude, and is attributed there to "Enoch the Seventh from Adam" (1 Enoch 60:8).
Yes, the Book of Enoch was definitely used as a source book for parts of the New Testament. This book should be in every Christian bookshop and on every church book table.
Much of what appears to be a mystery by John MacArthur is revealed by Enoch. That being said this sermon is essentially correct, as are all his sermons.
Enoch1 as we know it could be scripture. We don't know for sure, but a very good case can be made. 2Esdras, also can be scripture.. he wrote 3 books and had his 4th left out??? And the winner of the day is the Book of Jubilees. It is definitely Torah. It was written by Moses and accepted by the Levites, all the Yahudim, Yahusha Jesus, John the Baptist, and all the Apostles. In fact most of 1John has no witness without Jubilees. John 3:16 is directly from Jubilees, and so much more from Luke and Mark. These people would rather let a catholic council tell us how we should worship. They were persecuting us, and removing scripture all at the same time.. and yet this is the "cannon" we are expected to accept. No.. I trust Yahuah God, and what the Angel dictated to Moses.
Book of Enoch... Not inspired by HOLY SPIRIT. I GO IT WAS, IT WUD BE IN THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD. I USED TO BE SO CURIOUS ABOUT ENOCH TIL I HEARD ROBIN BULLOCKS VIEW, THE ELEVENTH HOUR. HES A PROPHET ALSO.
THANK you Dr John McArthur...I have spent last few years learning & being taught by Dr Sproul & Dr Charles Stanley & I needed to add to my learning from another Preacher/Teacher that is new to me ... because I LOVE TO LEARN ABOUT THE BIBLE...GOD THE FATHER ... GOD THE SON & GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT & GOD'S ANGELS... And GOD led me to you... and I Very picky of what is taught & what I'm learning & by whom ...so now I will be going through All your Preaching/Teachings... Along with my Church and Bible Studies & Prayers & In THE HOLY SPIRIT & SPEAKING to PPL on my public transportation of JESUS...gives me a full repotoire of my day... I have to do everything IN its time through my day... Where THE HOLY SPIRIT leads me to...Im Always Sooo Excited to learn & being taught about The WORD OF GOD & THE HOLY TRINITY... but I have to be very careful that I am hearing GOD.... cause Satan is very sneaky...I have learned this...so I'm Very careful...THAnk you again... GOD BLESS your Ministries & family...Praying for y'all... 🔥☮📖❤🙇🏾♂️
You might want to check out Pastor Mike Hoggard. MacCarthur has completely missed the mark here. It's all about DNA. Noah was perfect in his generations. Operative root word genes. MacCarther only presents one tiny sliver of truth here. He completely misses the truth in Genesis 6. As do most pastors. Check out Hoggards expose in his Triple Helix series. Thanks
@@quantumpotential7639 Check out a video on TH-cam called The Final Nephilim by Ryan Pitterson. It really fleshes (no pun intended) out the DNA angle and how the end times will be just like the days of Noah where demon DNA will be in the Mark of the Beast and anyone who takes it will no longer be 100% human and therefore no longer eligible to be in heaven. Fascinating stuff.
Thanks for helping get the word out. God has used John MacArthur to teach The Word in a very concise way. May the Lord bless you, great sermons and speeches!
John MacArthur is a true man of God. Not many left in this day and age. I use his study bible and enjoy his sermons. 11-11-21 today... I listened to one of his sermons entitled Discontentment it has help me and woke me up.
I just came from that video👍 I've been binge watching TH-cam videos ranging from Mike Winger and Greg laurie to Amir Tsarfati and JD Farag. I love hearing about end times prophecy and God's Love/Judgement. It really is a remarkable time to live on the earth, incredibly evil and dark times are upon us. If any man or woman is wondering what is happening to us, I encourage you to draw close to the Lord, repent and turn away from wickedness. Don't worry about saving the planet which God has marked for it's upcoming destruction. Put your hope in Jesus Christ and embrace the free gift of salvation he freely gives to anyone that recognizes him as their savior and the Son of God.
Oh there are many great teachers out there . John isn’t nearly as knowledgeable scripturally as many that I listen to. He is dead wrong on this sermon. He has no idea that Genesis 6 is about the fallen angels that created nephilim with human women ( even Peter n Jude talk about it ) Do the research .
@@Christfollower89 I believe in Christ as my Lord and Savior. Do you believe we are in end of days now? I think the world was a better place a decade+ ago
Actually, you are coming off as arrogant and bloated. People like you are lonely and miserable and just love to troll people minding their own DAMNED BUSINESS.
Recall he points out that there are various interpretations. To fully understand his current position on this, stay with him throughout the whole message here. Context rules interpretation and John Mcarthur respectfully holds to that. Best explanation I have ever heard.
Have to disagree. Old Jewish Traditions happen to be most accurate. God clearly states it was Man's, Men's, or Mankind's sin and not fallen angels, demons, or angels.
He's landed right back on the deception of tradition. It is tradition and Jewish folklore that says that the sons of God are angels/demons. The old testament does not call the sons of God angels or demons, and the new testament make it clear that God has never called an angel His son.
Dr Chuck Missler has an excellent commentary on this subject. Dr. Missler was one in a million. God truly blessed him with genius like insight into the truth of the Bible and scriptures.
John MacArthur has very much knowledge of the bible and his preaching is so blessed. Have also his "study bible" (NKJV), which I can very much recommend.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel Yes, thanks for stating that. He is originally from Ellen White 7th Day Adventist, an occult-based religion. His grandfather was a Scottish Rite Freemason, another occult philosophy. He twists Scripture, adding his own interpretation, and wrote his own Bible. This confusion is obvious to those who have a solid basis in Christian belief. And who have spiritual eyes to see and spiritual ears to hear. He repeats the same statements over and over. This hypnotizes listeners. There is lot of this type of Narcissism in southern Calif.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel and what made you come to such a conclusion? I actually see the very opposite of what you said, John MacArthur has a lot of spiritual insight and is blessed with the Holy Spirit as his guide that allows him to understand the Bible in much more depth then the average Christian studying the Bible or reading it regularly. So much of what he preaches is completely new to me even though I have read the same verses multiple times and have heard sermons being taught at church or Bible study groups, it’s amazing to listen to him
I'm not a Christian but I still love listening to literary, historical and critical analysis of the stories and texts of religions. Even if I don't believe the literal description of events and existence, I can still reflect upon the nature of existence, human behavior, the nature of storytelling/knowledge passage and many life lessons in general. Many passages are truly fascinating.
Honest to god, I used to do the same thing. Even took an interest in folklore of varying cultures, read stories and passages from the Quran, and youre not gonna believe this, but started taking an interest in the occult too. Untill i read the book of proverbs. First as JUST an observer, and a ponderer. Next as kind of like a philosophical guide with excellent advice that Def still holds up today. Then, I allowed it to spiritually influence me, and Everything started to come together like an eyebrow lmao. I couldn't be in denial anymore my dude. My interest in the bible started to snowball out of control and I developed an intense urge to Learn. [My favorite being the story of Samson the strongman against the philistines] but yeahh. the more you Learn, the more it makes sense. But no doubt we all have questions regaurdless.
That’s what I used to say, and how I used to feel. Never thought I’d be a Christian like “those people.” But here I am. You should checkout MacArthur’s podcasts. He has a shorter one around a half hour that posts daily and another that shares his weekly sermons at Grace church. If you like this video then you’d enjoy him on there too. Good listening on the way to work or whenever you have time.
Great lecture and explanation. The Nephilim (Hebrew: נְפִילִים, nefilim) were the offspring of the "sons of God" (fallen angels) and the "daughters of men" before the flood - the "giants" of Genesis 6:4. The proof of this is the gigantic human skeletons found in Asia Minor, Europe and through North America. Yes, they were men of flesh but they were giants since their "flesh was corrupted". The word "flesh" can be understood as their DNA was corrupted and they could no longer be regarded as "mankind".
You do realize those "giant human skeletons" are just an internet photo hoax? There has never been a single genuine documented case of any recovered giant human skeletons despite all these so-called pictures and reports.
Sons of god does not refer to the fallen Angel's it refers simply to men of god, I dont understand the massive confusion when the bible explains it plainly.
It might help to garner additional information from the Dead Sea Scrolls. They were angels. Angels have bodies. Demons are disimbodied spirits of the hybrid angel/human nephilim. "The Angels that Sinned" are captives in the abyss.
"Angel have bodies", how so? Where is Gabriel's body? Or Michael's body? Or the bodies of the angels that were protecting a stronghold. Ur claim seems biblically inaccurate. Demons being nephilim isn't cannon but cannon doesn't make the claim either way, or so it seems. It does mention hell was created for Satan and his angels, but that doesn't mean God's angels and Satan's angels are indistinguishable or even share the same traits, such as having bodies etc.
@@arcguardian 😂 What ???? Demons aren’t live nephilim , demons are disembodied. The Bible tells us angels take the form of man ( several times ) . The fallen angels left their first estate , so they could mate with human women. Angels have the ability to have physical form according to scripture. Angels n demons are not the same. So John is way off base.
@@arcguardian There are many examples of Angels on earth..walking in bodies. Visiting at people's doors..speaking with Hans as messengers. They are real. The fallen angels had sex with women and their children were the Nephelim. These Giants devastated earth with violence. It was Satan's purpose to eliminate the possibility of Jesus birth..this prevent the saviour that will destroy him. Satan's only power comes through God's justice. Man sinned so they too deserve eternal hell like Satan..if GOD let's them off he goes free too and sin lasts eternal. Along with it's misery and pain.. In comes God's plan to save man the only way possible. God himself in Jesus had to pat our price.. But God's plan .
@@arcguardian ok? Something tells me you haven't read much of the Bible. As Lori correctly states, angels take the form of men when they act as messengers, i.e. Book of Tobit (Archangel Raphael) or Book of Jude (Archangel Michael). Whether this is their natural spiritual form, who knows. But the Bible has many examples of angels presenting themselves as man.
They were the nephillim, a blend of demon angel and fleshly women!, however we have to be glad because they are gone and then came Jesus and our free will to choose HIM, the saving grace to it all!…no matter what those nephillim looked like!, it is only what Jesus DID to bring about the saved who will be with God in the end.
It's amazing that Lucifer was able to get one third of the Angels to follow him. He must have had incredible persuasive skills to do that. This proves that Angels were created with free will. Can you imagine if the Angels Michael and Gabriel would defy God?
They hate God though, they despise Him and want to be above Him, pride is a soul destroyer... humility is key...humble yourself before the Lord, He is God Almighty, we are just lowly servants looking for His will for our lives
Just gonna leave this here. These are just a few btw... “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time:...” -Daniel. 12:1 KJV “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.” -Matthew 24:21-22 KJV “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:....” -Matthew 24:29-30 KJV *“God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.” -Psa_47:5 “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.” -Isa_27:13 * “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.” -Isa_58:1 *Rapture. “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” -Matthew 24:31 *Rapture. “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” -1 Corinthians 15:52 *7th trumpet, pre-last plague. “And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:” -Hebrew 12:19 “Behold, I come as a thief. … 17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. 18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.” - Revelation 16:15-18 KJV “I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,” -Revelation 1:10 KJV “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:” -1 Thessalonians 4:16 KJV Michael and the Resurrection. “And at that time shall Michael stand up,… and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” -Dan. 12:1-2 *This is the Rapture. John 5:25-29 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.” -John 5:25-29 *“But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.” -Revelation 20:5 KJV - For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: -1 Thessalonians 4:16 KJV
Haven’t listened to this yet, but if you guys really want deep teaching on Gen. 6, look up MICHAEL HEISER. You will not read the Bible the same. The old and new testaments will be link in so many more ways. Remember, God’s Word was written for us, not to us, therefore we must learn to read it in its original context.
I'm so impressed how god uses men to reach other men thank you god for men like McCarthy to break the bible down so I can understand it so much better love it love it keep it coming god bless you all!!!!!!!!!!!❤
I do, especially when your speaking of God Almighty,..He is our Creator, Who gave us Jesus Christ our Lord, He is our Shepherd, He leads us through paths of righteousness for His namesake
Here's what you should really be doing. Reading and meditating on the word and let God show you and teach you. Man is great but the more time you spend watching TH-cam videos and idolizing man, the last time you are in the word of God
Outstanding. Clear. Precise. Speaking from an unfeigned faith is a powerful thing. I would add that the offspring of fallen angels were giants. As Brother MacArthur says, it is hard to be dogmatically dogmatic, but, evidently, these fallen sons of God left their first estate and became men, not that they inhabited men. Women were something new as angels are all male. Besides being enticed by their beauty, they saw a way to perpetuate themselves and foul the seed of men, who they knew God loved very much. I don't think they expected the flood. They knew the consequences of leaving their first estate, wherein they were already demonic beings in the spirit realm, and that there was no turning back after making the transition to becoming flesh-and-blood men, which is why they are locked up in everlasting chains in darkness after dying in the flood and the other demons are not (not yet, anyway). This is pure conjecture, but perhaps they foresaw men being saved by the blood of Christ and thought they could qualify by becoming men to escape the everlasting judgment that they were already under for following Lucifer, which may be why Jesus preached to them after his death on the cross. He also became a man and left his first estate and was not under their judgment. That sermon probably was an explanation on why they couldn't cancel out their original judgment by becoming men and could not avail themselves of his blood after his resurrection and this is why they would continue to be confined in their prison until their final judgment. The references from Peter and Jude are, interesting enough, taken from the Book of Enoch. That book is not scripture, except for the parts taken by Peter and Jude in their epistles, but it is a fallible historical reference and does contain some interesting thoughts on the antediluvian world. All we really need to know, however, is what God gives in Genesis 6. That world perished in the flood and it is best to understand it existed and what happened but not to delve too deeply into it, just as we would not study the occult and expect any good thing to come of it. Brother MacArthur was wise on wanting to get through it and move on.
Dr. Michael Heiser has probably done the most thorough work on this topic on who the “Sons of God” are, who the Nephilim were, and the nature of the Divine Council. Read his book “Unseen Realm”. It will put the entire Old Testament into a new light with incredible explanatory power. Also, his Naked Bible Podcast is excellent.
Michael Heiser was a heretic and the so-called "Divine Council" is HERESY! He's in a hot place now where he knows better; this is too late for him, but maybe, just maybe, you may repent of your error!
Awesome teaching; thank you for this in-depth teaching; it is such a blessing when the Holy Spirit opens the scriptures to me that I can better understand Him and the most beautiful redemption Jesus Christ paid for at the cross.
You might ought to learn where the Giants came from. Where did Goliath come from. You know the one David fought and chopped the giant's head off. Don't rely on any man for your knowledge but study the Bible yourself so that you will not be mislead.
That's common in the comment section of a TH-cam sermon by any preacher. Type in any well known preacher and then look at the comments and you will see the same praises no matter who it is. But yeah....I notice it, too.
Excellent work. Very interesting subject. I can honestly say this was the best sermon ever. Especially since I can listen to it multiple times and still be entertained. This has given me a drive and a desire to read the Bible more thoroughly.
If you did study the Bible you would find out this man is wrong. Why would the Bible say that Noah and his family were the only ones who had a perfect pedigree? I wish you would study, and you can do so by studying with Shepherd's Chapel if you are really concerned with knowing the Word of God. This Pastor would also learn much if he listened to Shepherd's Chapel. The Bible says study your Bible to show yourself approvedbefore God a workman worthy.
Agreeing with alot of what Dr. MacArthur says here, Dr. Michael Heiser, a rather orthodox Old Testament scholar and professor, has volumes to say about this. Search him up.
Very Good! I have never heard it broke down in a very sensible way. Not a lot of ministers want to dig into this and articulate this in this manor. God bless you sir❤
I am captivated by your analysis. I am impressed with your length of time spent on research as well. That being said, I'm at 25 minutes in, and I was taught that when man turns away from the lord, it's a case of idolatry. This we see angers our lord. Rightfully so. If you were to create a race of beings only to find that 99.999 % of them yurned for the "objects of this world" as instant gratification, instead of being disciplined patient servants at his attention, you'd probably start over too. Idolatry. The worship of ANYTHING other than the Lord is grounds for dismissal. Grounds for Him turning his back on you or drowning you. Rightfully so. We became foolish selfish money hungry organic fools on this planet. We all fell short. All of us. Idolatry. Idolatry.
John MacArthur is a smoothe talking wolf in sheep's clothing. He minimizes the power of the cross and slanders God's character with the PAGAN doctrine of eternal conscious torment.
Yes! And the funny part (they thought) was hysterical funny to them, for it had NEVER RAINED! THATS WHEN THE MOUSTURE BUBBLE WRAPPED @ THE HOLE EARTH! THAT BURST, MAKING IT FLOID, BUT PRIOR TO THAT, it had NEVER RAINED! So they didn't believe it! Lol... Think if a man started building an ark now... And said ok, everyone get in... I have to be honest, I WUDNT get on it either! Lmao 😥😂😂
"local" is just used to mean "not global". A local food could still have covered all of the "known" world at that time without actually covering every single part of the actual globe. Seriously, if all of Mesopotamia, the Levant and other parts of the Ancient Near East were flooded- THAT WAS a "world-wide flood" for someone living in that area at the time. Remember: ancient people didn't know how vast the earth actually was and most didn't travel very far during their lifetimes. It's not inconceivable that Noah would've been told to build the ark to survive a flood that wasn't indeed covering every single piece of exposed land on the globe. It's not like "local" means "100 mile radius" or something like that; adjust your scale and it makes sense.
@@Boogiewalker That might be true if the writing was uninspired by God, but the word of God is inspired by God and true. ~ Genesis 7:19; The water prevailed more and more upon the earth, so that all the high mountains UNDER THE ENTIRE HEAVENS were covered. That is not a local flood and people that are teaching fallacies should not be trusted. Jesus saves Look Up!
Both amazing and dangerous how many well known well intentioned teachers(this one included) that program their followers with a corrupted way of bible analysis/interpretation...The things McArthur does get right are completely undone by the numerous details he gets wrong...it's mind blowing the most basic texts that have no room for misinterpretation, that he still misinterprets...which is why everyone needs to revisit every topic they ever learned from a pastor or teacher...revisit everything and let the bible interpret it...even if you like a particular teacher, lift your veil and look at them with a critical eye
We absolutely can wrestle with a spirit, and we do wrestle with spirits every single day. We are all effected by them, nobody is off limits. Our "land" has already been taken over, it is already defiled! We all do evil, we all are corrupted. The farmers and builders work in secret and are hidden from MOST individuals, but some are forced to see just how close they truly are to all of us. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The story of Joseph who was the son of Jacob and Rachael. Well Joseph saved many manyny people from dying of famine. Jesus later saved all of us by dying on the cross because he loves us so much
Thank you John MacArthur for your library of teachings. And with sticking with the Bible. This was definitely scary but refreshing; knowing that there is forgiveness through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior Dr. Doug Petrovich has a similar teaching strictly adhering to the Bible
There is a difference between the Fallen Angels and Demons….Angels are capable of manifesting a body, unlike Demons (sons of the fallen angels or Nephilim) who must have a host to enter or possess someone to have a body…
And not only were the hearts of men "only evil continually," there were also other beings that were products of "the sons of the LORD GOD" and human women that lived amongst the nephilim (giants) too. Dinosaurs (literally 'terrible' or 'giant' lizards) also most likely lived during this time. The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jasher offer some pretty good insight to this scripture. Thank u for the teaching. We ALL need to be aware of this since we are practically living "in the days of Noah."
When I was a small child the thought of death didn’t concur to me until at least age 9, and when it did it shocked me that one day I wasn’t going to exist anymore. It made me scared because I couldn’t understand not existing. I cried for a long time and couldn’t sleep until I asked my dad what happens after I die and he told me about god and that’s how I learned we officially had a god and a Jesus. I always knew god was there but I was not told, I wasn’t told what is purpose was and what he did or what my purpose was. And that we weren’t gonna die we were gonna go to sleep and live eternally. As you grow older you realize you don’t matter in the space of time, but as a kid full of innocence it’s almost natural and you aren’t thinking about it everyday. Your just always happy and free
My understanding, which could easily be flawed based on any number of reasons, is that demons are the living spirits of the deceased offspring born from the fallen angels and daughters of men rather than rebellious angels. As well, I don't believe the fallen angels entered men like a demon and then took wifes from the daughters of men. I think he even said the children were human as though the fallen angel was only a spirit who possessed the body of man. My understanding is that like the Devil, these fallen angels are shape shifters and they themselves fathered what we'd call a hybrid.
Where do you get your theology? Demons can inhabit humans- New Testament with legion (a legion is Roman term for 3000 men-that man had lots of demons in him but maybe not that many), think of Mary Madeline with 7 demons-many others in Bible-fallen and rebellious are the same for an angel- if he was fallen then that is becoz he rebelled against God and followed Satan-this is 1 of the reasons God destroyed the world with a flood-becoz Satan tried to taint the bloodline to Christ-and becoz men’s thoughts were only evil continuously-same thing will happen in great tribulation--and Satan also tried to kill the bloodline by having all Jewish boys drown in the river-also by exterminating the Jewish ppl-Satan thought He won when Christ died-obviously He thought God was weak
@@etrust1695 I highly esteem JMac, but I think like you here. If Satan can cause a tornado to kill Job's children, he can transform to a human body. He has some powers. What JMac does, is he's careful to be consistent, and I respect that. But what he's saying here seems to be the same demonic possession we see today, so why drown the world then? It was worse: it must've been rebel angels getting DNA of their own--- because holy angels don't have sexuality.
John MacArthur is a smoothe talking wolf in sheep's clothing. He supports the PAGAN doctrine of eternal conscious torment, and by doing that he slanders God's character and minimizes the power of the cross.

Wow, this provides so much clarity! I generally had problems with the Enochian view on this. I knew Seth line had holes in it too. Thanks for giving this explanation.
GREAT STUFF!!! For those interested in additional details may I humbly suggest you read the book of Enoch. Enoch contains unique material on the origins of demons and Nephilim, why some angels fell from heaven, an explanation of why the Genesis flood was morally necessary, and prophetic exposition of the thousand-year reign of the Messiah.
And for those who want to disclaim it, may I also humbly share that The Book of Enoch was considered as scripture in the Epistle of Barnabas (16:4) and by many of the early Church Fathers, such as Athenagoras, Clement of Alexandria, Irenaeus and Tertullian, who wrote c. 200 that the Book of Enoch had been rejected by the Jews because it contained prophecies pertaining to Christ.
THANK you to your continuous relation of words & the Hebrew words ...I have wanted to study the Hebrew language & Jewish lives / traditions ...🔥☮📖❤🙇🏾♂️
"There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward" Actually, there are giant skeletons being dug up all over the world that are 30 to 50 feet from head to toe. So all who keep saying 8 and 9 feet sorely misunderstand how giant the Antediluvian giants actually were
@@JohnSmith-bp1er their skeletons are being unearthed from Peru to Siberia to the Sahara to North America to the Asian Steppes and (i'm convinced) Antarctica. Often the guys that dig them up like to pose next to them in the photos to show the scale
The Septuagint says, “my soul shall not always strive with this “type of man”, Part of the problem was fathers chose to give their daughters to these demons.
Fun Fact: The Book of Enoch gives "Satan's" real name and the names of some of the angels that came to earth with him. Along with a list of things they taught humans. Metalworking, cosmetics, astronomy, etc.
I still love Dr. J Vernon McGhee’s super simple take on this. That the sons of God are those humans that believe and are faithful to Him and the daughters of men are from those who blaspheme and are haters of God. I really don’t think it has to get any deeper than that. Even if the men are demon possessed, demons are still spirit and do not produce ‘seed’.
Agreed. We have NO proof in the Bible that angels can produce offspring at all, much less with humans. And the only possible excuse from the actual Bible that the Sons of God could have been angels in Moses' writings is only derived from the book of Job. In the NT, genuine (and very human) believers are called "the sons of God" too (Luke 20; Gal. 3; Romans 8). Meanwhile, corrupt humanists have been trying to "improve" on God's designs, especially of humans, all throughout recorded history. "Ubermensch", concepts behind "Eugenics", 18thc French medical writings about 'human stud farms', modern discussions of the application of genetic manipulation, etc. The giants and mighty men in Gen. 6 could easily have been a result of human breeding efforts. And this explanation is much more easily defended logically and in accordance with fallen human nature - not to mention angelic/demonic nature - and historical record. I would argue that there is as much, and possibly more evidence for this argument in the Bible, mundane though it may be, than there is for the ancient fantasies about angelic romance.
You are absolutely right. Nowhere in the Bible, not even once, does it even hint that angels married women and procreated with them, and that includes the false interpretation of 'sons of God' in Gen 6. The Bible warns against Godly people marrying pagans dozens of times.
I asked God teach me something out of these “kids” Bible stories I never saw them any other way. God lead to to the teachings of John MacArthur. I didn’t know how much more there is to these verses! Thank you God and thank John MacArthur too. I’m loving diving into these teachings 😊
Y’all not describing how these angels take on other forms, that’s why it’s so hard to understand the problem they have caused! I wish you pastors would find this mystery out!!!
He talked about how God had patience all those years until he got tired, just like he's doing us now today with his patience, so we have to & must repent and start changing our lives & ways and live for Jesus asking for his help along the way/road 🛣️

Dr. The only way for the Bible, or Book of Life to make sense to me is to understand Jesus turned Himself into Adam and Eve. One Fish, Two Fish,
I was with him until he denied the existence of giants. There are dozens of archeological sites that possess bones of giants as well as traces of the same Babylonia society. Everything else makes absolute sense and I love his bringing forth of the word.
I agree, we all have different opinions and understandings.
I think this is an older sermon. I, too, believe they did produce monsters/giants. It was a race of hybrid beings. They were born of flesh, and could die, just like Jesus was born of woman, flesh, but his spirit was immortal. Demons are those spirits that once were the in human / angelic bodies. Before the End Days God promised to unseal these hidden things. John MacArthur is a very sound preacher, but not in total knowledge of all the mysteries of the Bible or God. No human being is. He is very good at explaining the Bible.He was probably taught the Sethite version in seminary. I’m grateful God is revealing to those looking each day. God bless.
I just found this video and haven’t listened yet but God wiped the whole earth clean in the flood however we know the giants existed after the flood. I don’t know where they came from but they existed. I want to know what species lived before the flood. God didn’t like them.
Yup and more in the Bible than he quoted and the historical Book of Enoch that explains it all. Alexander Pagani, Trey Smith, Isaiah Saldivar and Kevin Zadai all explain this better than John - and suddenly SO MUCH MORE makes sense for the times of antiquity/Old Testament!!
Where? Where are all these giants?
As someone who grew up with weak Christian leaders who were more than ready to compromise the word of God, it is such a blessing to hear someone as bold in the word of God as MacArthur. His words come off as harsh sometimes but so do Paul’s and so do Jesus’s!
Do you believe we are in end of days now?
@@dantommo4797 I believe so. Doesn’t mean we will know when it will end.
@@dantommo4797 I don't understand when people say "end of days" -- isn't it more accurate just to say "no more people living on Earth" if one believes the Bible?
The Earth and possibly other living things in the unimaginably large universe can go right on living without us, right? We are definitely NOT at the center of the universe.
One more question: So is the very real possibility of an asteroid striking the Earth and wiping out the larger mammals (including us) ruled OUT by Biblical prophecy? This mammalian extinction could be over in less than a month btw.

When I was a kid I was so afraid of death I used to ask God to take me the way he took Enoch 😂😂😂. That was my motivation for serving God.
Thank God for his mercy that I now have the right motives for serving him. 😂😂

I also have wished for translation...
you have a motive for serving Him ? what is the motive you have for loving your mother ?
It's written that His children will not see death. You will simply "step" into the presence of Jesus who will hug you with great love you have never felt.
Remember my brothers and sisters we are still here so the work never ends we must spread the gospel to our family and friends and to all but as long as we can spread it it's not the end
Pretty close.
Leave it to John to keep it real, straight and on point .
So much love for John preaching ❤💯✝️
Thank you John MacArthur for bringing clarity to theses difficult and obscure passages. Praise YAH
Just so you know there is overwhelming evidence of giants all over the world
Praise JESUS! We're not going to be killed for saying Yahweh but for JESUS. JESUS is the only name that casts out satan. Satan can say Yahweh all day long but he cannot say JESUS. It's a ploy of the one world religion to remove JESUS from our speech and writings. Only satan stops one from saying/writing JESUS.

He fought the philistines .....wait a minute how could Ishmael fight king David??????? Identity theft on a mass scale
Amos 2:9 and Number 13:33 seem to indicate giants.
The 'giants' recorded in Gen 6 were not related to Goliath or any others spoken of in the OT as the pre-Gen 6 giants were all killed in the flood.
@@Age_Of_The_God yeah if im 5ft tall and i run into shaq who is 7ft i would probably write down that i met a giant also
I have come to the conclusion that McMarthur presents here a long time ago through my time in the Bible. This is by far the best take that I have ever heard on it. Especially the part about how it was about man seeking to be gods, which is evident in history all the way up to the present. It's still going on today. Hollywood and the music industry, the promise of fortune and fame. The demons laugh at us for how guillable man is and continues to be.
I agree . by far the best teaching on Genesis 6 that I have encountered . I think there is more too the Giants .
Seasons Greetings Brother, I'm a little perplexed On Your Wording in the beginning of your comment? Blessings Sir! 🙏🏾
Excellent teaching of the Holy Scriptures, I am sincerely delighted that the pastor didn't leave anything out, but rather shared the honest truth 😇🌿🌹
I find chuck missler lecture on this deeper and more satisfactory. As words like giants, fallen ones, nephilim are important for us to understand. As it will come back according to jesus
👍😁
Try Orthodoxy they have a much deeper understanding of Christianity
Absolutely! That’s why this topic is getting so much attention. The Fathers is trying to CAUSE us to understand, because we are in Days of Noah Part 2.
It's worth noting that from the line of Cain you see the development of culture. In other words, Cain's descendants are noted for their works. Seth's descendants are noted for begetting life, which was God's command to Adam and Eve.
Similar to Cain bringing the fruit of his labor while Abel brought a living sacrifice. God established the shedding of blood to cover sin when he gave them garments made from skins to cover them.
"Seth's descendants are noted for begetting life"
What are you talking about? Certain of Seth's descendants are known for being the line of Christ, however all who are alive today are Seth's descendants and all of Seth's descendants who weren't in the line of Noah were largely unknown.

It sure would’ve seemed like end of times to the Christians alive during Roman persecution, it would’ve seemed like end of times whenever a massive catastrophe or war broke out, and it absolutely must’ve seemed like end of times during both of the World Wars.
Careful with what you see online, lots of shady “wisdom” but it doesn’t hurt to always strive to strengthen your spiritual relationship. You may or may not live to see what’s in Revelation but you will 100% experience death regardless.
Look into the various translations and interpretations of scripture. Some is eye opening, some is terrifying, but most is hopeful
Why would an all powerful loving God even require a sacrifice, knowing how the early human must be struggling wouldnt he want them to have ALL the fruit of their efforts.
God, please give Pastor MacArthur more grace and more mercy.
…and how about giving him a soul while you’re at it? He’s a zombie. There is no life in his hateful words.
Hateful words? Let's guess: You are gay or "transgender". If you were born as a male, you are ultra feminine, and have a nose ring, and you've got black nail polish on your fingernails. If you were born as a female, you are at least 350 lbs, stand 4'10, have florescent colored hair, have the nose ring, blah blah blah. Very cliche.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel, you surly spend a lot of time listening to John McArthur, as well disparaging him. You sound like one that’s committed to the cult of Catholicism, the false religion that I was raised in before coming to the knowledge of God’s truth. Hopefully you’ll find this truth, as well, someday before it’s too late for you.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel so you are better than what he teaches. thats a first... NOOOOT (as in Borat)
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel Once again, you are correct and seem to have studied his work to be able to speak truth.
The writings of Enoch that were discovered amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls give great insight into what transpired in Genesis 6. It seems clear to Biblical scholars that the Book of Enoch was known by Jews, because a short section of 1 Enoch (1:9) is cited in the New Testament Epistle of Jude, and is attributed there to "Enoch the Seventh from Adam" (1 Enoch 60:8).
Yes, the Book of Enoch was definitely used as a source book for parts of the New Testament. This book should be in every Christian bookshop and on every church book table.
Much of what appears to be a mystery by John MacArthur is revealed by Enoch. That being said this sermon is essentially correct, as are all his sermons.
@@theorialogos Totally agree!
Enoch1 as we know it could be scripture. We don't know for sure, but a very good case can be made. 2Esdras, also can be scripture.. he wrote 3 books and had his 4th left out??? And the winner of the day is the Book of Jubilees. It is definitely Torah. It was written by Moses and accepted by the Levites, all the Yahudim, Yahusha Jesus, John the Baptist, and all the Apostles. In fact most of 1John has no witness without Jubilees. John 3:16 is directly from Jubilees, and so much more from Luke and Mark. These people would rather let a catholic council tell us how we should worship. They were persecuting us, and removing scripture all at the same time.. and yet this is the "cannon" we are expected to accept. No.. I trust Yahuah God, and what the Angel dictated to Moses.
Book of Enoch... Not inspired by HOLY SPIRIT. I GO IT WAS, IT WUD BE IN THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD. I USED TO BE SO CURIOUS ABOUT ENOCH TIL I HEARD ROBIN BULLOCKS VIEW, THE ELEVENTH HOUR. HES A PROPHET ALSO.

You might want to check out Pastor Mike Hoggard. MacCarthur has completely missed the mark here. It's all about DNA. Noah was perfect in his generations. Operative root word genes. MacCarther only presents one tiny sliver of truth here. He completely misses the truth in Genesis 6. As do most pastors. Check out Hoggards expose in his Triple Helix series. Thanks
@@quantumpotential7639 Check out a video on TH-cam called The Final Nephilim by Ryan Pitterson. It really fleshes (no pun intended) out the DNA angle and how the end times will be just like the days of Noah where demon DNA will be in the Mark of the Beast and anyone who takes it will no longer be 100% human and therefore no longer eligible to be in heaven. Fascinating stuff.
Thanks for helping get the word out. God has used John MacArthur to teach The Word in a very concise way. May the Lord bless you, great sermons and speeches!
John MacArthur is a true man of God. Not many left in this day and age. I use his study bible and enjoy his sermons.
11-11-21 today... I listened to one of his sermons entitled Discontentment it has help me and woke me up.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I just came from that video👍
I've been binge watching TH-cam videos ranging from Mike Winger and Greg laurie to Amir Tsarfati and JD Farag. I love hearing about end times prophecy and God's Love/Judgement. It really is a remarkable time to live on the earth, incredibly evil and dark times are upon us. If any man or woman is wondering what is happening to us, I encourage you to draw close to the Lord, repent and turn away from wickedness. Don't worry about saving the planet which God has marked for it's upcoming destruction. Put your hope in Jesus Christ and embrace the free gift of salvation he freely gives to anyone that recognizes him as their savior and the Son of God.
John MacArthur slanders God's character and minimizes the power of the cross by teaching the PAGAN myth of eternal conscious torment.
Oh there are many great teachers out there . John isn’t nearly as knowledgeable scripturally as many that I listen to. He is dead wrong on this sermon. He has no idea that Genesis 6 is about the fallen angels that created nephilim with human women ( even Peter n Jude talk about it ) Do the research .

Recall he points out that there are various interpretations. To fully understand his current position on this, stay with him throughout the whole message here. Context rules interpretation and John Mcarthur respectfully holds to that. Best explanation I have ever heard.
Have to disagree. Old Jewish Traditions happen to be most accurate. God clearly states it was Man's, Men's, or Mankind's sin and not fallen angels, demons, or angels.
He's landed right back on the deception of tradition.
It is tradition and Jewish folklore that says that the sons of God are angels/demons.
The old testament does not call the sons of God angels or demons, and the new testament make it clear that God has never called an angel His son.
@@jthomas7904 Do you believe we are in end of days now?

I still listen to Chucks wonderful teachings. He also did a serious on 'Learn the bible in 24 hour' 🙏
I concur with "keep it real". In order to better understand this portion of scripture you need to listen to Dr. Michael S. Heiser.
I agree. Also Judgement of the Nephilim by Ryan Pitterson is a fantastic book on this subject. Highly researched and documented.
John MacArthur has very much knowledge of the bible and his preaching is so blessed.
Have also his "study bible" (NKJV), which I can very much recommend.
He knows a lot of things but has no spiritual insight or discernment whatsoever. He is the blind leading the blind.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel Yes, thanks for stating that. He is originally from Ellen White 7th Day Adventist, an occult-based religion. His grandfather was a Scottish Rite Freemason, another occult philosophy. He twists Scripture, adding his own interpretation, and wrote his own Bible. This confusion is obvious to those who have a solid basis in Christian belief. And who have spiritual eyes to see and spiritual ears to hear. He repeats the same statements over and over. This hypnotizes listeners. There is lot of this type of Narcissism in southern Calif.
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel and what made you come to such a conclusion? I actually see the very opposite of what you said, John MacArthur has a lot of spiritual insight and is blessed with the Holy Spirit as his guide that allows him to understand the Bible in much more depth then the average Christian studying the Bible or reading it regularly. So much of what he preaches is completely new to me even though I have read the same verses multiple times and have heard sermons being taught at church or Bible study groups, it’s amazing to listen to him
@@Schlemiel-schlimazel wrong. Are you a Bible scholar wheres your teaching sir
One thing I know for sure: He does not like Catholics.
I'm not a Christian but I still love listening to literary, historical and critical analysis of the stories and texts of religions. Even if I don't believe the literal description of events and existence, I can still reflect upon the nature of existence, human behavior, the nature of storytelling/knowledge passage and many life lessons in general. Many passages are truly fascinating.
Oh it happened..
Believe before it is too late
Honest to god, I used to do the same thing. Even took an interest in folklore of varying cultures, read stories and passages from the Quran, and youre not gonna believe this, but started taking an interest in the occult too. Untill i read the book of proverbs. First as JUST an observer, and a ponderer. Next as kind of like a philosophical guide with excellent advice that Def still holds up today. Then, I allowed it to spiritually influence me, and Everything started to come together like an eyebrow lmao. I couldn't be in denial anymore my dude. My interest in the bible started to snowball out of control and I developed an intense urge to Learn. [My favorite being the story of Samson the strongman against the philistines] but yeahh. the more you Learn, the more it makes sense. But no doubt we all have questions regaurdless.
That’s what I used to say, and how I used to feel. Never thought I’d be a Christian like “those people.” But here I am. You should checkout MacArthur’s podcasts. He has a shorter one around a half hour that posts daily and another that shares his weekly sermons at Grace church. If you like this video then you’d enjoy him on there too. Good listening on the way to work or whenever you have time.
But why in the world are you not a Christian yet? What are you waiting for❤️🤗 join us don't wait tomorrow is not promised
This pastor is a huge blessing! His teaching is exemplary and I’m so blessed to found this.
Great lecture and explanation. The Nephilim (Hebrew: נְפִילִים, nefilim) were the offspring of the "sons of God" (fallen angels) and the "daughters of men" before the flood - the "giants" of Genesis 6:4. The proof of this is the gigantic human skeletons found in Asia Minor, Europe and through North America. Yes, they were men of flesh but they were giants since their "flesh was corrupted". The word "flesh" can be understood as their DNA was corrupted and they could no longer be regarded as "mankind".
What gigantic human skeletons? Where do you derive this information?
You do realize those "giant human skeletons" are just an internet photo hoax?
There has never been a single genuine documented case of any recovered giant human skeletons despite all these so-called pictures and reports.
@@Avendale maybe they found Goliaths skeleton somewhere
ridiculous. Angels don't have DNA.
Sons of god does not refer to the fallen Angel's it refers simply to men of god, I dont understand the massive confusion when the bible explains it plainly.
It might help to garner additional information from the Dead Sea Scrolls. They were angels. Angels have bodies. Demons are disimbodied spirits of the hybrid angel/human nephilim. "The Angels that Sinned" are captives in the abyss.
I agree- I’ve read unseen realm by Dr. Michael Heiser and he says the same!
"Angel have bodies", how so? Where is Gabriel's body? Or Michael's body? Or the bodies of the angels that were protecting a stronghold. Ur claim seems biblically inaccurate. Demons being nephilim isn't cannon but cannon doesn't make the claim either way, or so it seems. It does mention hell was created for Satan and his angels, but that doesn't mean God's angels and Satan's angels are indistinguishable or even share the same traits, such as having bodies etc.
@@arcguardian 😂 What ???? Demons aren’t live nephilim , demons are disembodied. The Bible tells us angels take the form of man ( several times ) . The fallen angels left their first estate , so they could mate with human women. Angels have the ability to have physical form according to scripture. Angels n demons are not the same. So John is way off base.
@@arcguardian There are many examples of Angels on earth..walking in bodies. Visiting at people's doors..speaking with Hans as messengers. They are real.
The fallen angels had sex with women and their children were the Nephelim. These Giants devastated earth with violence.
It was Satan's purpose to eliminate the possibility of Jesus birth..this prevent the saviour that will destroy him.
Satan's only power comes through God's justice. Man sinned so they too deserve eternal hell like Satan..if GOD let's them off he goes free too and sin lasts eternal. Along with it's misery and pain..
In comes God's plan to save man the only way possible. God himself in Jesus had to pat our price..
But God's plan
.
@@arcguardian ok? Something tells me you haven't read much of the Bible. As Lori correctly states, angels take the form of men when they act as messengers, i.e. Book of Tobit (Archangel Raphael) or Book of Jude (Archangel Michael). Whether this is their natural spiritual form, who knows. But the Bible has many examples of angels presenting themselves as man.
My favorite teacher by a mile. But how I wish he'd said who were the giants with 6 fingers like Goliath and his brothers.
Wut?
They were the offspring of the fallen angels and daughters of Adam (which is used generically as man, but likely also daughters of Cain.)
They were the nephillim, a blend of demon angel and fleshly women!, however we have to be glad because they are gone and then came Jesus and our free will to choose HIM, the saving grace to it all!…no matter what those nephillim looked like!, it is only what Jesus DID to bring about the saved who will be with God in the end.
There were many there in the bible. Such as the Amalek they are the oldest ones.

One of the best interpretations I have heard so far. Thank you for sharing.
It's amazing that Lucifer was able to get one third of the Angels to follow him. He must have had incredible persuasive skills to do that. This proves that Angels were created with free will. Can you imagine if the Angels Michael and Gabriel would defy God?

That wouldn't happen they serve GOD ➕ out of love ....
Haven’t listened to this yet, but if you guys really want deep teaching on Gen. 6, look up MICHAEL HEISER. You will not read the Bible the same. The old and new testaments will be link in so many more ways.
Remember, God’s Word was written for us, not to us, therefore we must learn to read it in its original context.
Wow, this is very enlightening!!!! We need more Pastors like this.
Awesome Sermon this! Really enjoyed this. God Bless!
You have certainly helped me understand some questions I always had but never was able to correctly articulate them to anyone. Thank you..
I'm so impressed how god uses men to reach other men thank you god for men like McCarthy to break the bible down so I can understand it so much better love it love it keep it coming god bless you all!!!!!!!!!!!❤
Lower case g god is the pagan.
Always capitalize His name, God
I do, especially when your speaking of God Almighty,..He is our Creator, Who gave us Jesus Christ our Lord, He is our Shepherd, He leads us through paths of righteousness for His namesake
Here's what you should really be doing. Reading and meditating on the word and let God show you and teach you. Man is great but the more time you spend watching TH-cam videos and idolizing man, the last time you are in the word of God
@@ronaldross6789
Jesus is God, right?
Job 1:6 KJV: Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
This Man is Excellent in his clear narration, a pleasure to listen to.
He may sound educated... only because we don't read the Bible ourselves.
1 John 2:27
Outstanding. Clear. Precise. Speaking from an unfeigned faith is a powerful thing. I would add that the offspring of fallen angels were giants. As Brother MacArthur says, it is hard to be dogmatically dogmatic, but, evidently, these fallen sons of God left their first estate and became men, not that they inhabited men. Women were something new as angels are all male. Besides being enticed by their beauty, they saw a way to perpetuate themselves and foul the seed of men, who they knew God loved very much. I don't think they expected the flood. They knew the consequences of leaving their first estate, wherein they were already demonic beings in the spirit realm, and that there was no turning back after making the transition to becoming flesh-and-blood men, which is why they are locked up in everlasting chains in darkness after dying in the flood and the other demons are not (not yet, anyway). This is pure conjecture, but perhaps they foresaw men being saved by the blood of Christ and thought they could qualify by becoming men to escape the everlasting judgment that they were already under for following Lucifer, which may be why Jesus preached to them after his death on the cross. He also became a man and left his first estate and was not under their judgment. That sermon probably was an explanation on why they couldn't cancel out their original judgment by becoming men and could not avail themselves of his blood after his resurrection and this is why they would continue to be confined in their prison until their final judgment. The references from Peter and Jude are, interesting enough, taken from the Book of Enoch. That book is not scripture, except for the parts taken by Peter and Jude in their epistles, but it is a fallible historical reference and does contain some interesting thoughts on the antediluvian world. All we really need to know, however, is what God gives in Genesis 6. That world perished in the flood and it is best to understand it existed and what happened but not to delve too deeply into it, just as we would not study the occult and expect any good thing to come of it. Brother MacArthur was wise on wanting to get through it and move on.
demons cant forsee the future, but predict its events
Timothy, you gave a very able synopsis - So good, that I took a snapshot of your comments for my future reference.
We still need to be praying fasting and studying scripture.
Can't wait for Christ's return.
Maranatha!
John, your blessed. Your sermons are awesome. I pray to find a preacher like you in Amarillo.
Good video tyvm....we all must do our part and spread the good news
Dr Michael Heiser also has some really solid content about this passages.
Do you believe we are in end of days now?
Denying giants is denying God's Word as Truth
Dr. Michael Heiser has probably done the most thorough work on this topic on who the “Sons of God” are, who the Nephilim were, and the nature of the Divine Council. Read his book “Unseen Realm”. It will put the entire Old Testament into a new light with incredible explanatory power. Also, his Naked Bible Podcast is excellent.
Michael Heiser was a heretic and the so-called "Divine Council" is HERESY!
He's in a hot place now where he knows better; this is too late for him, but maybe, just maybe, you may repent of your error!
Awesome teaching; thank you for this in-depth teaching; it is such a blessing when the Holy Spirit opens the scriptures to me that I can better understand Him and the most beautiful redemption Jesus Christ paid for at the cross.
You might ought to learn where the Giants came from. Where did Goliath come from. You know the one David fought and chopped the giant's head off. Don't rely on any man for your knowledge but study the Bible yourself so that you will not be mislead.
Do you believe we are in end of days now?
Any man who tells the world that NOBODY can lose their salvation is way off the mark. He is leading ppl astray with such ignorance
@@jesusisgod7528 JESUS said i will never leave you nor forsake you ! if you losee your salvation you never had it !
The great majority of comments is praising the man John McArthur as supposed to praising God. When are we going to learn?
That's common in the comment section of a TH-cam sermon by any preacher. Type in any well known preacher and then look at the comments and you will see the same praises no matter who it is.
But yeah....I notice it, too.
Ridiculously foolish comment!
Your focused on the man, listen to the word!
Excellent work. Very interesting subject. I can honestly say this was the best sermon ever. Especially since I can listen to it multiple times and still be entertained. This has given me a drive and a desire to read the Bible more thoroughly.
Pastor Arnold Murray of Shepherd's Chapel is/was the very best Bible teacher I've ever studied with. Twenty years!
If you did study the Bible you would find out this man is wrong. Why would the Bible say that Noah and his family were the only ones who had a perfect pedigree? I wish you would study, and you can do so by studying with Shepherd's Chapel if you are really concerned with knowing the Word of God. This Pastor would also learn much if he listened to Shepherd's Chapel. The Bible says study your Bible to show yourself approvedbefore God a workman worthy.
Best sermon ever….not
Agreeing with alot of what Dr. MacArthur says here, Dr. Michael Heiser, a rather orthodox Old Testament scholar and professor, has volumes to say about this. Search him up.
Great message brother yhwh be with you forever...💜. Giants where in the earth in those days.
Very Good! I have never heard it broke down in a very sensible way.
Not a lot of ministers want to dig into this and articulate this in this manor.
God bless you sir❤
Thank you Pastor John MacArthur
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank You. God Bless 🙏
Maybe the ‘So what’ is that it explains the abnormal/giant skeletons that have been found?
I am captivated by your analysis. I am impressed with your length of time spent on research as well.
That being said, I'm at 25 minutes in, and I was taught that when man turns away from the lord, it's a case of idolatry. This we see angers our lord. Rightfully so. If you were to create a race of beings only to find that 99.999 % of them yurned for the "objects of this world" as instant gratification, instead of being disciplined patient
servants at his attention, you'd probably start over too.
Idolatry. The worship of
ANYTHING other than the Lord is grounds for dismissal. Grounds for Him turning his back on you or drowning you. Rightfully so. We became foolish selfish money hungry organic fools on this planet.
We all fell short. All of us.
Idolatry.
Idolatry.
If only there were more pastors like John MacArthur ...

He’s got this wrong
John MacArthur is a smoothe talking wolf in sheep's clothing. He minimizes the power of the cross and slanders God's character with the PAGAN doctrine of eternal conscious torment.
for those who think that the flood was local...........why build an ark then???? why take 120 years to build an ark if the flood was just local?
Very good point, never thought of that before.
I'm pretty sure anyone that thinks the flood was local doesn't believe a 500 year old man spent 120 years building an ark.
Yes! And the funny part (they thought) was hysterical funny to them, for it had NEVER RAINED! THATS WHEN THE MOUSTURE BUBBLE WRAPPED @ THE HOLE EARTH! THAT BURST, MAKING IT FLOID, BUT PRIOR TO THAT, it had NEVER RAINED! So they didn't believe it! Lol... Think if a man started building an ark now... And said ok, everyone get in... I have to be honest, I WUDNT get on it either! Lmao 😥😂😂
"local" is just used to mean "not global". A local food could still have covered all of the "known" world at that time without actually covering every single part of the actual globe. Seriously, if all of Mesopotamia, the Levant and other parts of the Ancient Near East were flooded- THAT WAS a "world-wide flood" for someone living in that area at the time. Remember: ancient people didn't know how vast the earth actually was and most didn't travel very far during their lifetimes. It's not inconceivable that Noah would've been told to build the ark to survive a flood that wasn't indeed covering every single piece of exposed land on the globe. It's not like "local" means "100 mile radius" or something like that; adjust your scale and it makes sense.
@@Boogiewalker That might be true if the writing was uninspired by God, but the word of God is inspired by God and true.
~ Genesis 7:19; The water prevailed more and more upon the earth, so that all the high mountains UNDER THE ENTIRE HEAVENS were covered.
That is not a local flood and people that are teaching fallacies should not be trusted.
Jesus saves Look Up!
Not just because Noah was righteous, but that his genetic line was pure.
That is a crucial understanding.

@@JosephAvenetti Listen to The Final Nephilim by Ryan Pitterson also on TH-cam. Gives a great explanation of the DNA angle.
Both amazing and dangerous how many well known well intentioned teachers(this one included) that program their followers with a corrupted way of bible analysis/interpretation...The things McArthur does get right are completely undone by the numerous details he gets wrong...it's mind blowing the most basic texts that have no room for misinterpretation, that he still misinterprets...which is why everyone needs to revisit every topic they ever learned from a pastor or teacher...revisit everything and let the bible interpret it...even if you like a particular teacher, lift your veil and look at them with a critical eye
We absolutely can wrestle with a spirit, and we do wrestle with spirits every single day. We are all effected by them, nobody is off limits. Our "land" has already been taken over, it is already defiled! We all do evil, we all are corrupted.
The farmers and builders work in secret and are hidden from MOST individuals, but some are forced to see just how close they truly are to all of us.
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Glory to Our Father in Heaven! I am overwhelmed His love and perfection.
The story of Joseph who was the son of Jacob and Rachael. Well Joseph saved many manyny people from dying of famine. Jesus later saved all of us by dying on the cross because he loves us so much
Very true, Joseph is a type of Christ in the old testament.
Joseph also took a gentile bride before his brothers came back to him
John MacArthur is a wonderful teacher
Thank you John MacArthur for your library of teachings.
And with sticking with the Bible.
This was definitely scary but refreshing;
knowing that there is forgiveness through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior
Dr. Doug Petrovich has a similar teaching strictly adhering to the Bible
There is a difference between the Fallen Angels and Demons….Angels are capable of manifesting a body, unlike Demons (sons of the fallen angels or Nephilim) who must have a host to enter or possess someone to have a body…
I totally agree Chuck Missler has excellent teaching on why this was fallen angels and not demons

@Samuelll Chuck Missler on the Konoinia House Channel has some excellent, detailed teachings on this topic.
Well explained. God bless you.
And not only were the hearts of men "only evil continually," there were also other beings that were products of "the sons of the LORD GOD" and human women that lived amongst the nephilim (giants) too. Dinosaurs (literally 'terrible' or 'giant' lizards) also most likely lived during this time. The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jasher offer some pretty good insight to this scripture. Thank u for the teaching. We ALL need to be aware of this since we are practically living "in the days of Noah."
Dragons/dinosaurs were created a day before Adam IIRC. That has nothing to do w Enoch.
Very well taught. Clarified many things I that I didn’t understand. Thank you
When I was a small child the thought of death didn’t concur to me until at least age 9, and when it did it shocked me that one day I wasn’t going to exist anymore. It made me scared because I couldn’t understand not existing. I cried for a long time and couldn’t sleep until I asked my dad what happens after I die and he told me about god and that’s how I learned we officially had a god and a Jesus. I always knew god was there but I was not told, I wasn’t told what is purpose was and what he did or what my purpose was. And that we weren’t gonna die we were gonna go to sleep and live eternally.
As you grow older you realize you don’t matter in the space of time, but as a kid full of innocence it’s almost natural and you aren’t thinking about it everyday. Your just always happy and free
Mac says a few things that question clarity on this passage. I strongly suggest Chuck Missler's work on these passages if you want more clarity.
My understanding, which could easily be flawed based on any number of reasons, is that demons are the living spirits of the deceased offspring born from the fallen angels and daughters of men rather than rebellious angels.
As well, I don't believe the fallen angels entered men like a demon and then took wifes from the daughters of men. I think he even said the children were human as though the fallen angel was only a spirit who possessed the body of man. My understanding is that like the Devil, these fallen angels are shape shifters and they themselves fathered what we'd call a hybrid.
If angels come and we don't know we are entertaining them without knowing it. To me that means they transform into men. IMO.
Where do you get your theology? Demons can inhabit humans- New Testament with legion (a legion is Roman term for 3000 men-that man had lots of demons in him but maybe not that many), think of Mary Madeline with 7 demons-many others in Bible-fallen and rebellious are the same for an angel- if he was fallen then that is becoz he rebelled against God and followed Satan-this is 1 of the reasons God destroyed the world with a flood-becoz Satan tried to taint the bloodline to Christ-and becoz men’s thoughts were only evil continuously-same thing will happen in great tribulation--and Satan also tried to kill the bloodline by having all Jewish boys drown in the river-also by exterminating the Jewish ppl-Satan thought He won when Christ died-obviously He thought God was weak
@@etrust1695 I highly esteem JMac, but I think like you here. If Satan can cause a tornado to kill Job's children, he can transform to a human body. He has some powers. What JMac does, is he's careful to be consistent, and I respect that. But what he's saying here seems to be the same demonic possession we see today, so why drown the world then? It was worse: it must've been rebel angels getting DNA of their own--- because holy angels don't have sexuality.
@@jeanniestanley7728 he didn’t say demons couldn’t inhabit human, he said fallen angels couldn’t. There’s a difference between the two.

Wow, this provides so much clarity! I generally had problems with the Enochian view on this. I knew Seth line had holes in it too. Thanks for giving this explanation.
I always hold the view that righteous Seth was called the son of God and sinful Cain the son of fallen, man.
Actually Old Jewish Traditions are more clearly accurate. This is clearly Cain's lineage and Seth's lineage as noted in the previous chapter.
Some of the daughters of men are not beautiful
Always good to listen to what God has given to John MacArthur.
GREAT STUFF!!! For those interested in additional details may I humbly suggest you read the book of Enoch. Enoch contains unique material on the origins of demons and Nephilim, why some angels fell from heaven, an explanation of why the Genesis flood was morally necessary, and prophetic exposition of the thousand-year reign of the Messiah.
And for those who want to disclaim it, may I also humbly share that The Book of Enoch was considered as scripture in the Epistle of Barnabas (16:4) and by many of the early Church Fathers, such as Athenagoras, Clement of Alexandria, Irenaeus and Tertullian, who wrote c. 200 that the Book of Enoch had been rejected by the Jews because it contained prophecies pertaining to Christ.
Thank you for this teaching it humbling so we know more about our makeup and how much more we really need God.

"There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward"

@@relevation0 Gadre’el.
"If you preach false doctrine, than you're gonna be judged". Statement deserves a standing ovation.
Little does John know he's talking about himself because he is preaching false doctrine when it comes to genesis 6
I still love Dr. J Vernon McGhee’s super simple take on this. That the sons of God are those humans that believe and are faithful to Him and the daughters of men are from those who blaspheme and are haters of God. I really don’t think it has to get any deeper than that.
Even if the men are demon possessed, demons are still spirit and do not produce ‘seed’.
Agreed. We have NO proof in the Bible that angels can produce offspring at all, much less with humans. And the only possible excuse from the actual Bible that the Sons of God could have been angels in Moses' writings is only derived from the book of Job. In the NT, genuine (and very human) believers are called "the sons of God" too (Luke 20; Gal. 3; Romans 8).
Meanwhile, corrupt humanists have been trying to "improve" on God's designs, especially of humans, all throughout recorded history. "Ubermensch", concepts behind "Eugenics", 18thc French medical writings about 'human stud farms', modern discussions of the application of genetic manipulation, etc. The giants and mighty men in Gen. 6 could easily have been a result of human breeding efforts. And this explanation is much more easily defended logically and in accordance with fallen human nature - not to mention angelic/demonic nature - and historical record. I would argue that there is as much, and possibly more evidence for this argument in the Bible, mundane though it may be, than there is for the ancient fantasies about angelic romance.
...all due respect to Pastor MacArthur... 🙏
You are absolutely right. Nowhere in the Bible, not even once, does it even hint that angels married women and procreated with them, and that includes the false interpretation of 'sons of God' in Gen 6. The Bible warns against Godly people marrying pagans dozens of times.
I asked God teach me something out of these “kids” Bible stories I never saw them any other way. God lead to to the teachings of John MacArthur. I didn’t know how much more there is to these verses! Thank you God and thank John MacArthur too. I’m loving diving into these teachings 😊
Thanks for sharing!
