(October 28, 2010 at 3:01 pm)theophilus Wrote:(October 27, 2010 at 3:31 pm)Jonah Wrote: My pastor conveniently forgot to quote the rest of the passage, which reads, “...and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”His sonship was different in that he was always the Son of God. The angels were apparently considered sons of God but they were created while Jesus alsways existed.
Now, if I have read the Bible correctly, Jesus is supposed to be the son of God.
If the "sons of God" mentioned in Genesis were really angels, why didn't the writers/editors of the Bible fix that little discrepancy? It would have been less confusing if the Bible had just cleared everything up and said they were angels.
"If your god has to make peace with me in my final hour when he has my whole lifetime to prove his existence to me...do you think I should bother?"
"But the happiness of an atheist is neither the vacuous enjoyment of a fool, nor the short-lived pleasure of a rogue. It is rather the expression of a disposition that has ceased to torture itself with foolish fancies, or perplex itself with useless beliefs." - Chapman Cohen
