01
Through 10:59

Jesus’ comparison with Noah’s days introduces Odle’s claim that ancient corruption foreshadows end-time conditions. This portion explicitly uses Luke 17, Genesis 6 and Job 38 in developing that point.

02
Through 21:59

Genesis 6 is interpreted as fallen angels producing Nephilim offspring with human women. This portion explicitly uses Daniel 4:11, Zechariah 11 and Galatians 4 in developing that point.

03
Through 32:58

06
Through 1:05:56

The Anakim, Rephaim, and Israel’s conquest narratives are tied to the survival or recurrence of giant clans after the flood. This portion explicitly uses Numbers 13, Deuteronomy 2 and Genesis 6 in developing that point.

07
Through 1:16:56

Odle surveys reports of giant bones from North American mounds while clearly presenting institutional-suppression claims as allegations. The example is used to move the teaching from profession into concrete obedience.

08
Through 1:27:55

The sermon compares folklore and ancient testimony with biblical prophecy, asking whether similar beings could reappear. This portion explicitly uses Isaiah 13 in developing that point.

09
Through 1:38:55

Odle relates the Nephilim theme to disputed claims about genetic corruption and particular bloodlines, distinguishing speculation from direct biblical statements. This portion explicitly uses Genesis 3 in developing that point.

10
Through 1:49:54

The conclusion urges believers to reject fascination without discernment and remain anchored in Jesus, Scripture, holiness, and spiritual readiness. This part of the message turns the doctrine into a question of loyalty and daily conduct.

    All right, good morning everyone. We are on our class four here of spiritual warfare, class four Nephilim, Satan's genetic seed. We got Luke 17, 26 through 27. This is where we'll start. This is Jesus speaking. He said, and as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man. He's talking about in the the second coming of the Son of Man, the Lord Jesus. He used that term to refer to himself very often. As you'll see, it's often to the term, that term Son of Man is used in the book of Enoch, and we're going to talk about the book of Enoch a little bit today. But anyway, Jesus said, and as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives. They were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all. As it was in the days of Noah, so once he says that, then we've got to believe what he said. And so we go back to the days of Noah, and as we're going to see here in just a second, the book of Genesis in Genesis chapter six talks about angelic beings called the sons of God, that type of angels, having relations with human women and producing a race of giants, of half-breeds. Now this is a statue, a well-known statue. It's in the museum here, and so you see there's an angel trying to seduce or taking hold of a human woman. This is pretty well known and accepted throughout the world that this happened. It's amazing that many Christians deny this, but this sculpture is by Daniel Chester French, called the sons of God, saw the daughters of men that they were fair. This is the Cochrane Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., so you get to see that there. Obviously somebody believes that this Genesis 6 is actually real, actually true means what it says. All right, but here's Genesis 6, 1 and 2, and it came to pass that when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and the daughters were born unto them and that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair and they took them wives of all which they chose. That's pretty clear there, and it goes on to say verse 4, there were giants in the earth in those days and also after that. And that's an important phrase to understand. He says those days, what days? He's talking about the days of Noah. He says there were giants in the earth in those days and also after that. So even after the days of Noah appears that the DNA, the genetics of the giants continued on

    probably through one of Noah's sons' wives. It's one theory about that, how it came to pass after the flood, after they were all destroyed. But anyway, it says there were giants in the earth in those days and also after that when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men and they bear children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old men of renown. So I think we've heard the stuff about the, and it's funny because a lot of theologians, a lot of pastors, a lot of seminaries, a lot of churches will teach that this was just the sons of Seth, basically just regular humans. And why it doesn't even make sense that it was just regular humans, you know, because Seth was the righteous seed. He was the restoration after Abel was murdered by Cain. Why would the righteous seed and the daughters of Adam and Eve all of a sudden have these mutant giants, some of which as we'll see reached 36 feet tall. How do you do that? Now it's obvious here that there was something else going on and the ancient world and all of the history and legends of cultures throughout history talk about half humans, half God, God-like beings that had superhuman strength, sometimes six fingers, six toes. The Bible talks about that, but also extremely large and tall. So again, I think the Seth idea that it was just the sons of God were just the normal men and normal women. If you have normal men and normal women, you're going to get normal men and women, you know, male and female offspring. So it doesn't even make sense and it's not what we see in the Bible and it's not what history tells us. In fact, we see that this is revealed the men of renown or the men of legends. Again, this goes down through history. In every culture, there is stories told of giants and that's why they're called men of renown because the legends went on for thousands of years. We see also giants depicted in ancient engravings and inscriptions. Here you see some Babylonian. It's obvious that the king, the one in control, is much larger. There on the right, you see these normal sized men here fighting this monstrous

  3. 0:06:23

    human-like, but yet obviously very different than us being there. So ancient artifacts and archaeology, ancient stories. Here's another artifact is the king Gilgamesh holding a lion like we would hold a house cat. Look at that right there. It's my little kitty. That had to be a very large, I mean, I just recently, you know, when we did a class last week, I just looked at recently looked up lions and they averaged around 450 to 500 pounds. He's just holding on to one with one arm there. Shows you something now, doesn't it? And it's interesting because see the lion, it is a lion because it's got a mane and a big paws. People say, oh, that's that doesn't mean that. Well, I mean, looks like it to me. You can choose. But again, when things agree with what the scriptures say, they corroborate what the Bible says. Why would we think it was be false? Why would we think it would be deception? And of course, we see these anomalies, these we're going to talk more about these toward the end of this, but the abnormal skulls found all over the earth, these elongated skulls. And of course, we've we've seen that, you know, some tribes in different parts of the world have, you know, constricted infants heads to try to create this. But again, what were they what were they mocking or what were they trying to recreate? It's obviously something that they thought was different and powerful and, you know, either a legend or a representative of their gods. But as we'll see later on that there's a difference you can tell between a human skull that's been manipulated. And these boys here, because there's different the plates of the skull are very different. And it's not by manipulation. You wouldn't change how the plates and the suture lines would be just by, you know, constricting the head. So and also they've tested the DNA on these and found that they're not fully human. But we'll talk about that too in a minute. Here's Job 38, 4 through 7. Very important because remember Genesis 6, he said the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair. Here's a proof going back into the Old Testament. And I believe Job was written before Genesis. Basically, I believe Job was written by Job. And then later on comes Moses and God takes him up on the mountain, shows him what happened in the past and gives him the story of what happened in the ancient past. But here we see the Lord speaking to Job very clearly. In fact, Job 38 is the Lord Himself speaking directly to Job. And he says, Where was thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding, who hath laid the measures thereof? If thou knowest,

  4. 0:09:26

    who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? And who laid the cornerstone thereof when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy? Now this cannot be mankind because this is talking about the very beginning of creation when God laid the foundations of the earth. Before he made man, he said the morning stars sang together and the sons of God shouted for joy. So these are the angels. And we talked about angels last week and the fallen angels. And we talked about the different types of angels. So some are referred to as stars. Some are referred to as the sons of God. Some are called cherubim, seraphim on down the line. So some of them are called flames of fire. Job 1.6, you see this also says there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord and Satan came also among them. All right. And this was a private conversation at the throne of God about Job. And so the sons of God again is a reference to angels. And some of these angels rebelled against God's plan in his will and followed Satan and also made this change here. So let's look at the definition of the word. I don't even know why some people that teach and preach on giants will just be are adamantly say, oh, it's not Nephilim, it's Raphaim. And I'm like, well, the word giants here, which the giants are the offspring of the fallen angels, the sons of God. So they are the offspring, the giant to the offspring of the fallen angels, sons of God and human women. And they're called Nephil. All right. And that's how you say it. Nephil or plural Nephilim is how it's pronounced. Nephil Nephilim. And here's what's interesting about this. I just I don't know why I didn't pay attention to this last time I did this, but I didn't really focus on this, but it says here a feller. Now that's not a southern phrase for hey, that feller over there. All right. A feller means someone who cuts down trees, but we'll get to that in a second. A feller, that is a bully, a tyrant, a giant. So here's the strong Hebrew lexicon definition. A feller, a bully, tyrant, a giant, so a mighty man. All right. Now let's keep going here. We'll look at this, the etymology of this word in English here, feller. All right. Notice the first definition of the word feller. What does it say right there?
