Who Were the Nephilim? The Answer Will Shock You... (Episode 32)

 In this episode of 'Carry Your Cross', I delve into the origins of the Nephilim, exploring their historical context and significance in biblical scripture. The discussion transitions from current events affecting Christians to a deeper examination of spiritual warfare, the fall of Lucifer, and the implications of the Nephilim on humanity and God's plan. Through various clips and scripture references, I highlight the cosmic rebellion, the flood of Noah, and the ongoing seed war between God's creation and Satan's distortion.

Transcript

Pedro Espinoza (00:00)
What's up everyone? Welcome back to Carry Your Cross with your host, Pedro Espinosa. Last episode, I spoke about Christian persecution in the countries of Nigeria and China. So I hope you liked that. As Christians, we are to call out darkness wherever it's happening. And hope to do that here with this podcast.

My goal is to win souls to Christ and to and non-believers to live a better life, but ultimately to live a Christ-like life. Amen. So go and check out episode 31 if you have not already, and please do consider subscribing if I have earned your subscription. It really helps the channel grow and it helps the algorithm push out this podcast to those who

to hear it and need to hear it. All right, so I'm gonna introduce the topic of today's episode in just a second, but just in light of all the just craziness happening and all the topics that one could discuss in a Christian podcast, namely the Candace Owens moments that are currently happening, she's becoming unhinged and she's talking about

leaked Charlie Kirk texts. ⁓ She's minimizing Protestantism and she's having squabbles with Israel. Not only that, there's all these conspiracy conversations about the Charlie Kirk assassination. You have the rapture predictions from this rapture prophet ⁓ by the name of Joshua Millekele? Millekela? I'm not sure how you pronounce that.

Of course you know you have the Israel, Gaza, Middle East, hot button topics that are currently going around and ⁓ recently the hostages were just released. So obviously that's great and amen to that. And then...

My last episode, Christian persecution, that's another hot topic going around in Christendom. So you have all these topics, right, that not everybody wants to tackle and quite frankly, it's stressful to talk about these things. Not that I don't enjoy doing this, but it's also stressful. So I wanted to make this episode a little more lighthearted. It's quite an interesting episode and...

it's going to be about the Nephilim and where the Nephilim come from, the origins of the Nephilim, who they are, what they represented and why essentially God created them. So ⁓ there's gonna be this historical breakdown of even before we arrived on the scene,

Our chapter, if you will, starts in Genesis, As humans, that's where our chapter starts. But there was a whole ⁓ history and story that existed in this whole race, civilization that existed before we came on the scene. So I'm gonna get into that here shortly. I have three clips for you guys today. Two by Tim Alberino.

He is he's a Christian content creator. He also does a lot of research on You know the the history of scripture ⁓ Ancient What aliens really are and ⁓ he believes they are extraterrestrial entities and ⁓

even biblical entities. So we're obviously not going to get into that, but that's kind of what his work encompasses. He's a, archaeologist and he goes to places like Peru, Machu Picchu. He's even excavated some of the pyramids monoliths in these places. He's a really interesting guy and

In just a minute here, I'm going to share the first clip where he explains that there was a galactic rebellion that occurred before Genesis one, as I was saying. So in this video, you're going to hear him use words like or phrases like the B'nai Elohim or the sons of God. So that's what it translates to as sons of God. So the B'nai Elohim, right, they're part of this ⁓

the word I'm looking for?

They're part of this elder race, for lack of a better term, this higher ranking family that belongs to God. And these were the sons of God, the B'nai Elohim. And they did exist before Genesis chapter one. So if you've ever heard the phrase, Lord of hosts, well, that term hosts is referring to this family.

existed before we did, right? This royal, heavenly family that we actually can belong to if we choose to belong to them. So long as we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior and we choose to believe and follow his ways, right? So we can actually choose to be part of this royal

heavenly family that Tim actually refers to as the elder race, right? So this episode's gonna be a lot about what pre-existed us in that sense. And it's going to be about ⁓ Lucifer, otherwise known as Satan, and just how he was the most beautiful angel.

that eventually turned wicked and this cosmic war ensued between Satan and God himself, which then caused them, along with many angels, be casted out of heaven. And that is eventually how we come to know of the Nephilim who were then created because of the casting out.

So kind of a lot to explain but let me get into this first clip and let me know what you think.

pretty interesting, right? So just the way he explains it, I've never heard anybody explain the Bible, scripture and ⁓ biblical history the way he does. ⁓ He has like that extra level of depth that his mind kind of goes to and there's a space that he thinks from and he has very interesting perspectives. So as he alluded to, right, our chapter begins in Genesis and ⁓ what

pre-existed us are the B'nai Elohim or sons of God, right? Otherwise they're known as the morning stars. So ⁓ morning stars because they were the first to appear.

So these entities, these angelic beings, these sons of God, they have a whole history of their own. not many Christians talk about this or probably even know this, but there was a whole heavenly civilization pre-existed us. So I think it's really interesting to maybe think about this because

This is the type of galactic paradigm that is needed to understand the Nephilim, to understand the biblical flood, and really to understand the gospel. Right? Because later I'm going to talk about the seed war and how really it has been a war from the very beginning even before the beginning in this case. So I'm going to get into that in just a few minutes, but I want to read you some scripture.

So I'm pulling from Isaiah 14, Isaiah 14, 12 through 15. So it states, you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn. You have been cast down to the earth. you who once laid low the nations, you said in your heart, I will ascend to the heavens. I will raise my throne above the stars of God.

I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will make myself like the Most High.

but you are brought down to the realm of the dead, to the depths of the pit.

So I share that scripture with you because

This is exactly necessitated the fall of Satan and the angels from heaven. So Lucifer wanted to become like God. He actually wanted to,

usurp God. He wanted to ascend higher than him. And this just could not happen, right? And this wasn't God's intent. So he ordered that these angels along with Satan be casted out because Satan brought down some of the angels with him.

Satan became wicked and thus some of the angels became wicked.

So this is all before us guys. This is before our existence. And it really starts to make you think differently about things.

So in this next clip by still Tim Albino, same guy, talks about a great cataclysm that And this great cataclysm is of course the flood of Noah, right? So it occurred as a result of something else that happened before. And let me play this clip for you and I will define what that something else was.

Okay, so here's the next clip.

So what was this something that happened before? Right? If you were wondering that, well, this is the answer. So I'm going to pull from Ezekiel 28, 12 through 17. starting with verse 12, it says, son of man, take up, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyree and say to him, this is what the sovereign Lord says. You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom.

and perfect in beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone adorned you. Carnelian, crystallite, and emerald. Topaz, onyx, and jasper. Lapis, lazuli, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold. On the day you were created, they were prepared.

You were anointed as a guardian cherub. for so I ordained you. You were on the holy Mount of God. You were among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. Through your widespread trade, you were filled with violence and you sinned. Your heart became proud.

on account of your beauty and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth. I made a spectacle of you before kings. And this is where we get the galactic rebellion, cosmic war.

was casted out because of his splendor, right? And he, mean, Lucifer. But when Tim refers saying, like when he indicates that there was something else that happened before, this is what he's talking about. Lucifer was the most beautiful angel, as you heard just now.

says that.

Your settings and mountings were made of gold. On the day you were created, they were prepared. So there was just so much in anticipation for Lucifer to be created. He was a guardian cherub. He was never supposed become devil that we know today. He was a guardian cherub. That was his ranking. But

Wickedness entered his heart and that caused his fall ultimately.

not sure if I have it here, with, I believe it might be, but with the fall, he took down many angels with him. I believe.

A third of the angels in heaven were also taken down. There's also scripture Bible that indicate that 200 angels were casted out of heaven. if you're aware of this, you're not, but you might've heard that there 190 discovered craters on earth and

archaeologists think that that might be tied with these angels, these B'nai Elohim that were casted out from heaven onto the earth. not saying that there is a tie between these two points, but it's very interesting to think about. This next clip I'm gonna share with you, it's from the Faith and Friction podcast. They've been doing really good over there. So if you haven't,

listened to them if you haven't watched their videos

They talk about friction points that are up in the church and they discuss and flesh out those points, right? Really points that cause friction, Hence faith and friction. So that's their podcast, go and check it out. But in season one, they had a series of episodes about the Nephilim their origins, why they were created, who they were, right?

And so I'm gonna pull from this clip. I forget which episode it is, but it's in season one where one of the pastors is actually talking the Nephilim in this clip. So listen closely.

So that's a breakdown of the origins of the Nephilim and I want to actually read you Genesis 6, 1 through 8. Now this is the origin story of the Nephilim. If you want to dive deeper Genesis chapter 6 verses 1 through 8, might have referred to it in that clip ⁓ as he was talking about the Book of Enoch. Well,

There are a lot of parallels between the Book of Enoch and some scripture. In the canon of the Bible, the Book of Enoch is actually quoted. And that can be a whole different episode for a different day. in the Book of Enoch, almost like an introduction to Genesis.

Enoch is obviously not canon. It wasn't determined to be part of the canonized scripture. Not exactly sure why. Again, different episode for day. But here I want to read to you Genesis 6, 1 through when human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them,

The sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful and they married any of them they chose. And the Lord said, my spirit will not contend with humans forever for they are mortal. Their days will be 120 years.

The Nephilim were on the earth in those days and also afterward and the sons of God to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, the men of renown. So obviously, for those who are putting one and two together, when it says that the sons of God went into the daughters of man,

It means that they had intercourse, right? And so in this context, the sons of God or the B'nai Elohim who were once in heaven, but were casted out, they were expelled to the earth and they saw the daughters of man they saw that they were attractive and they decided to procreate

with the daughters of humans, right? And this is how we got the nephilim. how they were born.

So verse 5, the Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth and his heart was deeply troubled. So the Lord said, I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race.

I have created, and with them the animals, the birds, and the creatures that move along the ground. For I regret that I have made them, Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

So you guys, the reason the flood was because of the Nephilim, right? The human race became wicked and this was caused by Elohim rebelling against God. So not only did the rebellion occur the cosmos, but it occurred on the earth as well.

And quite honestly, it's still occurring to this day, right? Hence spiritual warfare.

So the Nephilim, they necessitated the flood of Noah, right? Verse eight, but Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. So even though God wanted to wipe out the human race altogether due to the Nephilim, he also spared us, right? have to give thanks to God for his grace.

So let me break down a different chapter of Genesis. This would be Genesis chapter three and it's verse 15.

I'll explain why it's important here in a second. So Genesis 3 verse 15. And I will put enmity between you and the woman. So who's the woman here, right? The woman here is Eve.

I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and my offspring it's anything Satan corrupts. So in this context the Nephilim.

So let me just start over. will put enmity between you and the woman and between your offspring and her seed. He will crush your head, which is the Messiah, and you will strike his heel.

Okay, you guys following me? So here the seed of the woman is the Messiah and the Messiah will crush the serpent's The serpent will then strike his heel, right? So this is talking about the crucifixion of Christ and the triumphant victory of Christ in the end, right? As he rose on the third day.

This is foreshadowing that moment, Genesis 3 15. And this is a seed war, guys. So when it's talking about her seed, Eve's seed, it's really foreshadowing and introducing Messiah.

God's seed and Satan's seed are at war. Not were at war, but they are at war, present tense. It's still happening today. Satan has to pervert the seed of Eve from the start. Anything that creates, Satan will try to distort.

And you're seeing it here throughout this episode and in these scriptures that Satan's number one objective is to distort and

destroy creation of God and that is what he's been known to do. There are scriptures all throughout the Bible that describe such a practice, in the context of this episode, that was his main objective, And he actually succeeded, right? But it's because of God's grace that we are still here.

and we are able to fulfill his purpose. So guys, just keep in mind that this is a seed war at the end of the day, Satan's seed versus God's seed.

Right one thing I want to leave you with is

The book of Genesis and the book of Enoch both indicate that the Nephilim the offspring of fallen angels and the daughters of man.

So.

Remember that point as you play back the episode. wanted to kind of give you a interesting, fun little breakdown of what pre-existed us before we arrived on the scene and what our meaning is in the cosmic of entire reality.

and the flood of Noah happened, who the Nephilim were. And actually they were men of status and power. They were giants, the men of renown, right?

but the reason that they were

out is because they were Satan's seed. They weren't God's seed.

So there's many examples throughout scripture. ⁓ Don't have time to get into it. and by examples, mean examples of a seed war between Satan seed and God seed.

So thought I kind of bring this episode as sort of a fun little from all the political turmoil going on and just the spiritual battles that us Christians are facing today, right?
