So far, we’ve discussed how Satan launched attacks from the ground. Now, let’s explore how he devised an aerial strategy to disrupt the lineage of Jesus Christ.
Satan’s air-based attack involved a small group of angels who had followed him during the First Earth Age. Out of all the angels who rebelled against God, seven thousand disobeyed Him by refusing to be born of women. In open defiance, they crossed the firmament and engaged in relations with the women of that time. The offspring of these unions were giants, also known as the Nephilim.
These fallen angels assisted Satan in corrupting the seed line of Christ by impregnating the descendants of Eve. Their goal was to render these women unfit to carry the lineage of Jesus Christ.
These fallen angels were not only larger than ordinary men, but they also retained wisdom from the First Earth Age. They shared this forbidden knowledge with their followers, much of which was eventually recorded over time.
Today, with modern research tools, we can piece together the story of the First Earth Age and the forbidden knowledge.
Everything I’ve shared about the First Earth Age aligns with scriptural references found in ancient manuscripts. In addition, the information provided by the fallen angels gives even more in-depth information.
When the fallen angels were on Earth, ancient texts outside of the Bible document that people worshiped them as gods. This raises an intriguing point: consider where all religions and false gods originated. They stem from these fallen angels, who presented themselves as deities to mankind. When the fallen angels departed, returning to Heaven, they left behind a claim that they would one day return. Their ultimate goal was to destroy the seed line of Jesus Christ and rule alongside Satan. According to Scripture, there will be another influx of fallen angels in the future.
During their time on Earth, God’s anger was so great that He caused Noah’s flood to destroy the Nephilim (the giants), and the evil they perpetuated.
Here are some thoughts on Noah’s flood:
First, how many “Adamic” souls were on the ark? Scripture tells us there were eight, Noah and his family. Many assume these were the only human souls on board, with the rest being animals. However, as written, God instructed Noah to take two of every “flesh” aboard the ark. This implies two of every race, in addition to the animals. This would explain how all races, including the Kenites (descendants of Cain), survived the flood.
Additionally, God told Noah to take seven of every clean animal and two of every unclean animal. Why seven of each clean animal? Consider this: they needed more than two animals for food and for sacrifices to God after the flood. At that time, animal sacrifices were still practiced. This blood ordinance ended when Jesus died on the cross, offering His blood as the final sacrifice to forgive our sins.
Soon after the ark landed, Scripture mentions Gentiles. How could Gentiles exist if only eight Adamic souls were on the ark? This raises two possibilities: either the flood of Noah was not worldwide, as the flood in the First Earth Age had been, or Gentiles were also aboard the ark. If the flood was not worldwide, this could also explain how all races and the Kenites survived.
After the flood, when God spoke to Noah and his sons, He said, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the Earth.” This marked the second time in Scripture that God commanded humanity to replenish the Earth after a great devastation.
Since Noah’s time, there have been approximately 36 generations, assuming a generation spans 120 years. If only eight Adamic souls were aboard the ark, how could all the diverse races have emerged from them within just 36 generations?
For those who believe this is possible, consider this. Even if there were 1,000 generations between Noah’s flood and today, the way God designed our human bodies makes it genetically, mathematically, and physically impossible for all the races to have descended naturally from just eight Adamic souls.
Here’s another perspective to think about. If only eight souls survived the flood, and if Noah’s flood was global and Adam and Eve were the first humans, then where did the Gentiles come from?
If everyone descended from Adam, Eve, and Noah’s family, then everyone would belong to the same race, and Gentiles wouldn’t exist. Clearly, traditional interpretations of these events don’t add up.
When children ask these questions, many parents respond with, “We’re not supposed to know everything.” But with access to extensive study tools, it’s time to move past such answers and provide our children with the thoughtful, well-researched explanations they deserve.
Looking back through history, it becomes evident that God is patient and intentional. Everything He does unfolds strategically over time. This is why He created all the races on the sixth day of the Second Earth Age, declaring His creation “very good.”
While some scholars may disagree with the idea that the races were created on the sixth day, careful research into ancient texts supports this truth. When God creates something, He does so with specific intent and purpose, just as rocks can’t fly because that isn’t their purpose. Similarly, the way God designed our physical bodies makes it genetically impossible for all races to originate from a single couple.
