Prophecy Update #490 – The Nephilim In The DNA

“From The Walking Dead to Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, it seems like everything these days is set in a post-apocalyptic world,” wrote on author.

Another said, “From arthouse films to animation to popcorn blockbusters, destroying the world has never been more in vogue. Directors and movie studios are clambering over one another to see who can create the most dystopian and destructive vision of the near-future.”

It’s therefore a good time to see the signs of the times and be able to give an answer to folks about what is really going on, and going to occur, based on the Bible.

500 end times Bible prophecies remain to be fulfilled. You’d therefore expect there to be news, and trends, that anticipate their fulfillment.

That’s why each week we present what we call a Prophecy Update. This is #490 in that series.

We’ve been teaching a series on the Days of Noah on Wednesday nights. I’d strongly encourage you to go to calvaryhanford.com, find those studies, and either watch, listen, or read them.

About five of them are posted, and there will be two or three more. They are less than 25 minutes long; only a few pages of reading, if you choose the PDF.

They are pertinent to end times prophecy because Jesus pointed us back to the Days of Noah. He said,

Mat 24:37  But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Mat 24:38  For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
Mat 24:39  and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

We’ve discovered in those studies that Jesus was describing a particular type of “marrying” that was occurring before the Flood. Fallen angels were marrying and mating with human women.
Their offspring were the Nephilim – a superhuman race of giants whose DNA was corrupted.

It is this corruption of human DNA to alter what it means to be human that Jesus seemed to be pointing to as something we could expect to characterize the end times.

Guess what? Corrupting human DNA is all the rage right now.

It’s as it was in the Days of Noah, except instead of fallen angels, it’s being done by fallen humans.

The cover of National Geographic reads, The Next Human: Taking Evolution Into Our Own Hands.

It is typical of the many mainstream publications that are reporting on our ability to tinker with what makes us human.

There was one particularly relevant article this week. It was titled, Human Ancestor Mated with ‘Ghost Lineage.’

Excerpts:

A protein that helps make human spit slimy reveals signs that the ancestors of modern humans interbred with an extinct human lineage…

Previous research… suggested that the ancestors of modern humans may have interbred with other human lineages not known from the fossil record. For example, a 2011 study analyzing modern human DNA found that the species may have bred with a now-extinct lineage of humanity before leaving Africa.

Now, researchers suggest that a “ghost” lineage of ancient humans may have contributed the DNA for a protein called mucin-7 found in the saliva of modern humans living in sub-Saharan Africa today.

I’m no scientist, and I don’t want to read anything into it, but when I read, “ancestors of modern humans interbred with an extinct human lineage…” I can’t help but think sons of God and daughters of men producing Nephilim.

“As it was in the days of Noah.”

We are not looking for any particular sign, or prophecy to be fulfilled. Jesus promised He’d return to rapture His church – which entails the resurrection of the dead in Christ of the Church Age, then the translation from earth to Heaven of all living believers.

It is presented in the Bible as an imminent event.

Are you ready for the rapture? If not, get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up. Ready or not, Jesus is coming!
