There is no definitive proof that angels slept with women. That is an assumption. The "sons of God" went in to the daughters of men and SOME of their...

Well Jack, where we are this moment in time, Amos speaks to any who have eyes to see! What is happening in our country?

The word says the angels left their habitation. Their habitation is the place in which they lived. It doesn't mean they quit their jobs as messengers of God....
Ner was the son of Abiel, and the brother (not the father) of Kish. I found a convincing exposition of this at the following website:...
1 Samuel 14:51 refers to “Ner the father of Abner” who was Saul’s cousin. Saul’s father, Kish, and Abner’s father, Ner, were brothers, having the same father...

I will address only Achan's sin. (I used to be a kleptomaniac before Jesus saved me--that's why this question interests me.) Achan’s first mistake was to...

I'm with you Trish on this. I don't believe angels, fallen or otherwise, have sex. We don't read anywhere in scripture that angels, definitively, had sex...

I would say that Nicodemus went to Jesus in the first place because of his realization (as he indicated in talking with Him) that Jesus was someone who had...

Orthodoxy and orthopraxy seem to be at odds with each other. But I think that is because people see them as a “Faith versus Grace” concept. Really they...
