I think there were probably giants on Earth in the past when the oxygen levels were higher. There were giant dinosaurs, why not giant men?

Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
giant
Or nphil {nef-eel'}; from naphal; properly, a feller, i.e. A bully or tyrant -- giant.
see HEBREW naphal (nephilim)
I guess it really does not matter. I read the nephilim were great men of renoun meaning super large and super intelligent. I do not believe Nephelim is a part of the order of angels. Please show me because if i am ever asked i want to be able to show someone the verse and material to back up my statement. I take the bible as the literal word of God. Still learning much love to my brothers and sisters in Christ.
Thanks Linda, it downloaded for me & I'll read itI don't know if this attachment will open since I've never tried to upload a file in this forum before. This is a great study written by John Young on the topic about who the sons of God are.
Wow - huge MYTH BUSTER, and all done by scripture. Thanks Linda !I don't know if this attachment will open since I've never tried to upload a file in this forum before. This is a great study written by John Young on the topic about who the sons of God are.
CONCLUSION:
The myth that "the Sons of God are Angels " is not actually found or stated ANYWHERE in the bible. It is derived from a Jewish Fable self imposed on scripture and spread in ignorance of the context of ACTUAL scripture. If we study the bible without the help of this myth and others like it we will see the true facts unfold.
The New Testament is very clear the "Son's of God" refer only to the Saved Human Race. What is true of the "Son" is true of the "Sons" as we are co-heirs with Christ. The Angels are not co-heirs with Christ but rather ministers to the Sons.
John 1:12-14 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God,even to them that believe on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Here's a really good bit:
Because Angels can take the form of men.....
As I've studied this out both ways, I can see how Angels can be applied to this as well...pretty wild study
Anddra....Care is definitely required when answering the question who are the sons of God. It is clear that they were present during the creation, so they could not be men in Job 38:7. It seems that in the Old Testament, which was written in Hebrew, the phrase is typically used to refer to angels. In the New Testament, which was written in Greek, the phrase refers to the Church.
THE SONS OF GOD IN GOD'S DISCOURSE TO JOB
Job 38:4-7 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. 5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? 6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; 7 when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Some think these verses are one whole question referring to the creation of the earth and logic is used to say Man did not exist yet so this "must be" angels. But the passage does not say this. Notice the passage is actually five separate questions. They were not present at creation but the were present when the "Corner stone" was laid. In the Bible every time we see "Corner stone" in scripture we see it is only ever referring to Christ. Christ became this Cornerstone at his resurrection and this is when "the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy."
Isaiah 28:16 therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?Ephesians 2:20 and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
1 Peter 2 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
Yes, but it didn't persuade me. The context of Job was before The Lord's resurrection.Anddra....
