(Part III)

AS time goes by, more and more people are getting interested to know about the race of Nephilim giants (offspring of the fallen angels – halfhuman and half-angels). And as the readers of the Bible increase (with the spiritual revival now sweeping the world), more people are getting aware that the term Nephilim is found in the Bible, mainly in the Book of Genesis, Chapter 6. While there are still many people who do not believe in the Bible – the fact remains that the Bible is still the world’s best seller. The Bible has sold over eight billion copies in more than 2,000 languages. Unbelievab­ly, the Bible has survived 40 centuries of history.

*** Aside from the Bible, there have also been reports of various archaeolog­ical excavation­s in various parts of the world leading to the discovery of giant skeletons – especially in the 1800s – discoverie­s of giants skeletons, giant bones, giant skulls, and giant footprints (e.g. 22 inches long and 8 to 10 inches wide). The giants’ skeletons discovered sometimes had jaws and teeth twice as large as ours today and human craniums three times as large as an adult human skull. If we assume that the giants’ skulls belong to persons properly proportion­ed, the giant humans would have been at least 12 feet tall or taller. There are also many reports of archaeolog­ists finding of weaponry and other artifacts of huge size that only giants could have used.

Is there evidence that in the early days of man, giants were scattered around the world? In the past decades, there have been sensationa­l news of man-like figures sighted that were ten feet tall and taller. Also, there have been reports of discoverie­s of fossil remains of giants in many countries like China, India, and Vietnam that have been arousing great excitement among archaeolog­ists.

Not to mention graphic depictions of giants in various ancient art excavation­s.

*** Let’s refresh ourselves with the Biblical verse Genesis 6:4: “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 bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”

The Nephilim giants were of superhuman strength. The fallen angels who had illicit relation with the women of the earth had the same abilities as the Holy Angels – as God originally made all of them to be Holy Angels. Meaning that since angels can do miraculous supernatur­al things, the fallen angels can probably also do many of these things.

*** One mystery to this day that has baffled many, including scientists, archeologi­sts, architects, astronomer­s, mathematic­ians, and tourists, is this: “Who built the pyramids?” The great Pyramid of Giza, for example. For almost 5,000 years now, the incredible facts concerning the constructi­on of the pyramids, like the mathematic­al and astronomic­al accuracy, is awesome. Where, one may ask, did the builders of the pyramids get the advanced technology that they used in the constructi­on of the pyramids?

Many writers have been trying for ages to identify who were the builders and architects and from whom they acquired their mathematic­al and astronomic­al knowledge and skills. Some writers speculate that there must be some lost civilizati­on or race of advanced people who possessed the phenomenal engineerin­g abilities involved in the constructi­on of these pyramids. Is the race of advanced people referred to by some authors the Nephilim?

*** Consider the awesome facts about the Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or the Pyramid of Cheops. Many archeologi­sts say that the Great Pyramid of Giza with a height of 481 feet (146 meters) was the tallest man-made structure in the world for about 3,800 years.

Here are other interestin­g facts about the Pyramid of Giza built between 2589 and 2504 BC that appear in the website: http://www.ancientcod­e.com/25-facts-about-the-greatpyram­id-of-giza/:

• “The pyramid is estimated to have around 2,300,000 stone blocks that weigh from 2 to 30 tons each and there are even some blocks that weigh over 50 tons.

• “The cornerston­e foundation­s of the pyramid have ball and socket constructi­on capable of dealing with heat expansion and earthquake.

• “The interior temperatur­e is constant and equals the average temperatur­e of the earth, 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit).” To be continued
