satans aim was to stop the fulfillment of the seed that would crush satan underfoot.This hybrid between the angels and man created giants abominations in Gods eyes.They also were a threat to Gods people as can be seen by the giants in the land of caanan after the flood.If we agree on that then there is no way that Eve would have had intercourse with satan [false doctrine of the seed of satan -RCB- because the blood lines were still untainted by angelic beings or satan at the time of Noah maybe that is also why the genealogy of Christ is well presented with no surprises apart from Hagar and Ruth these two were gentiles that shows Gods mercy grace was always there to all nations he accepts people by faith not by race.Prior to the flood the mixing of the angels and man must have been widespread after the flood these beings were present but in limited numbers and God told his people to destroy them as they were abominations but they were a threat to Gods people.It would be interesting to hear what the rabbis had to say on this matter as i would think the stories would have been past down from generation to the next.Especially regarding the flood.God promised he would never flood the earth again but a time is coming when the earth will be judged not by flood but by fire Jesus is our ark and we are safe in him.brentnz

Jeremy thanks for your comments alot of this i never really thought about before until you provoked me to seek the truth in the word it is what we all should be doing finding the truth for ourselves God wants to reveal mysterys if we are open to hear.If we have been christians awhile we just take the word of whoevers preaching or whichever clip we see on god tube its knowledge but not revelation.Because the story sounds plausible we tag that on to our belief for example for many years i believed that the rich young rulers problem was money so the way to deal with that problem is to give it away and be a follower of Jesus sounds plausible.Till you realise every believers situation is different so the message has to be universal.So the reason its not about money because it excludes those that do nt have it and does nt make room for those that do have it but do nt worship it.The rich young ruler was not a bad person he lived by a good moral code but he made money his idol he put that before God.The word says we shall not have any idols thats a sin and a wicked one.In fact there wasnt any room in his heart for Jesus that is a tragedy.So when we see the message is about Idolatry we all have areas that we chose not to submit to God thats universal everyone of us whether we are rich or poor.I believe we are unaware that we have these idols what are some of them that was revealed to me our partners our children our work our church our family i can sense some of you are getting fidgetty.

He responded by relating the parable of the Good Samaritan, one of my personal favorites... bear traps are hidden, and often unseen till bear or human are caught in them... the traps are deliberately placed, they don't just suddenly appear... the answer to the question was the man who had compassion on the man taken by robbers... he was a social and spiritual outcast who had compassion on someone who in normal circumstances would have hated his guts... because his doctrine and «lifestyle» were not acceptable to the religious establishment... I have had life experiences that bear this out, experiencing love and compassion from people whom today's religious establishment demonizes and looks down upon... any reading of the Good Samaritan story should be followed up by a reading of 1 Corinthians 13....

Jeremy good message and quite relevant for today God is still looking at our hearts and motives for serving him or are we serving our own agenda as Jonah was.He did nt feel compassionate towards his enemies and who could blame him they had cruelly killed many Jews it was a question of life or death to his own people.The Jewish nation was no more deserving of Gods grace than the other nations that is revealed by sending Jonah to preach a message of hope and life.Ultimately God calls all by faith in him and is willing to be merciful to all nations and peoples that do not not deserve it just like us it is by grace that we all are forgiven.I am pleased that God is sovereign and knows whats best he is merciful to us.Our human nature is that it is better to kill our enemies before they can kill us and that is essentially Jonahs message that is why he struggled to be obedient to Gods will.Gods message is to forgive those that trespass against us and show mercy.Its complicated and it is natural to protect ourselves and our families from those who would seek to destroy them but ultimately its about trusting God with everything easier said than done.If it comes to a choice we will have to trust God and ask for his strength because we cant do it in ours.As Christ laid down his life for us are we ready to lay our lives and the lives of our families as a sacrifice for him.To me that is where the story of Jonah is leading to we have the choice to fight our enemies or to love them as God loves them.brentnz
