Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hi guys, and welcome back. This is Cassandra Valentine and
my topic today is the Nefolins. As you will know,
I've been posting photos of what I feel the nepholiums
look like according to the Bible and according to Enoch.
(00:23):
So I'm going to read something up and I've put together,
and then I'm going to break it down in my theory. Okay,
I call it ah hold on the fate of the giants,
and this would be Enoch's vision. Enoch wrote that when
(00:47):
the sons of Heaven came down and took the daughters
of men, their children grew into giants three hundred cubits tall,
which would equal about four hundred and fifty feet if
I'm not mistaken, Okay, three hundred cubics told in the
oldest telling, these Nephelin ravished the earth, drinking its rivers
(01:12):
dry and devouring menkind. When food could not sustain them,
the cries of the oppressed reached the throne of the
Most High God commanded the archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and
Uryl to bind the rebel angels in chains beneath the
(01:32):
mountains and to destroy their monstrous offspring. The giants' mortal
bodies were cut down by the flood and the sword,
and it'll in the breakdown you'll understand what I mean
by the flood and then the sword. But their spirits
could not return to Heaven, for they were born of
(01:54):
heaven and earth. Neither could they die, for they were
not purely fleshed. So God cursed them to wander the
earth as evil spirits, restless until the day of judgment.
These spirits, the ancient souls of Nephelin, became the unclean
spirits men call demons. They thirst for violence, stare up war,
(02:21):
and seek possess, and seek to possess the living, for
they envy the breath of mankind. And so the giants
are gone in body, but their shadows still walk beside us. Okay, guys,
(02:42):
So here I'm going to break it down for you.
Like I said, I'm going to do a breakdown of
what I just read, and it has certain parts, but
here we go. First, we're going to start with the
(03:03):
origins of the Nephilin. The Watchers, a group of angels
descended to Earth on Mount Hermann. They took human wives
and taught humanity forbidden knowledge such as warfare, sorcery, astrology, beautification, charms.
Their offspring were the Nephilin giants, violent beings that devoured
(03:31):
human labor, the then human flesh, and eventually began eating
animals and even each other. That is in the Book
of Enoch chapter seven, verses three through five. Okay, now
we'll go off to their wickedness. The Nephilin was said
(03:54):
to have corrupted the earth to such an extent that
their violence cried out to heaven. They caused humans to
sin greatly, both through violence and by introducing osolate and
warfare practices. Sorry osleyon warlike practices. And then we have
(04:19):
the judgment and the death of manivolence. Enoch said, God
issued a decree through the archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uryl.
Again that's Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Euryl were given tasks
to deal with the corruption. Gabriel was specifically ordered to
(04:43):
cause signifilent to destroy each other in battle they would
turn on themselves. That is also in the Book of
Enoch ten and nine. This meant their deaths were not
simply by human hands, but divinely induce civil war among
(05:04):
the giants after their destruction of great flood would cleanse
the earth. Also the Book of Enoch ten thirteen through sixteen,
now we have the fate after death. Enoch explains that
the soul's slash spirits of the Nephuland could not return
to heaven like humans. Their spirits became evil spirits slash demons,
(05:33):
roaming the earth, seeking to oppress, possess and to omit humanity.
That is also in the Book of Enoch fifteen eight
through twelve. These are described as the unclean spirits in
later Jewish thought, tied to the demonic activity mentioned in
(05:54):
the New Testament. So they died violently or been killing
one another. Some may have been killed in the flood.
Their bodies died, but the spirits became the organs of demons.
(06:14):
So I just want you guys to think about that.
The spirits that walk among you, that are within the
spiritual realm, those spirits may not be the person's spirit
that you're talking to. And here's something else. For we
(06:40):
wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness,
and high places, and I'm gonna break all of that down. Wrestle,
which is a great word that refers, that refers to close,
hand to hand come back in intense personal struggle. Paul
(07:02):
is saying the Christian life involves a constant spiritual fight,
not just an occasional battle, not against flesh and blood.
It's flesh and blood is a Hebrew expression of human beings.
The real enemy isn't ultimately your boss, a corrupt leader,
your neighbor, or even someone attacking you physically. People may
(07:26):
be used, but they are not the root cause the
real enemy. Therefore, in this category, the principalities ruling spirits
with authority over certain regions or domains, powers, delegated spiritual
authorities that influence events and systems, rulers of darkness of
(07:51):
this world, forces that promote moral, cultural, and spiritual darkness,
spiritual wickedness in high places, evil spirits being operating in
the unseen heavenly realm. And then we have the meaning
(08:15):
in this context that I'm reading. Paul is warning that
the Christian struggle is a part of a larger cosmic
spiritual war. Evil doesn't just operate on the visible physical level.
I'm sorry. Evil doesn't just operate on the visible physical level.
(08:36):
It has a spiritual infrastructure. This is why Paul immediately
tells believe us to put on the whole armor of God,
which is in Ephesians six thirteen through eighteen, truth, righteousness, faith, salvation,
God's word, and prayer, because these are the only weapons
(08:58):
effective against spiritual enemies. What it means is our greatest
struggles are not against people themselves, but against the spiritual
powers of evil influencing people and events. This shifts the
fight from revenge or hatred others towards others, to prayer, discernment,
(09:26):
and standing firm in God's power. And that is all
for today. Guys, have a great one goodbye. Oh also
leave me a comment if you like.
