Israel: The Prophetic Connection | John Tweedie - Return Of The Giants | August 2, 2025
- The giants of
- 00:00:01.069 --> 00:00:01.903
- Noah's day were wiped out in the flood.
- 00:00:01.903 --> 00:00:05.073
- But how did they mysteriously appear after the flood?
- 00:00:05.073 --> 00:00:08.342
- Answers next.
- 00:00:08.709 --> 00:00:09.677
- In this episode of the prophetic connection
- 00:00:09.677 --> 00:00:12.980
- Soft music
- 00:00:12.980 --> 00:00:50.485
- With respect to giants appearing after noah's flood,
- 00:00:51.519 --> 00:00:55.056
- The scriptures are clear in this regard
- 00:00:55.056 --> 00:00:57.024
- Because we read in genesis six, there were giants on the earth
- 00:00:57.024 --> 00:01:00.761
- In those days, and also afterward.
- 00:01:00.761 --> 00:01:03.898
- Now we have this beautiful setting.
- 00:01:04.665 --> 00:01:07.001
- This morning
- 00:01:07.001 --> 00:01:07.568
- I'm standing
- 00:01:07.568 --> 00:01:08.736
- By the sea of galilee, and it's around 630 in the morning,
- 00:01:08.736 --> 00:01:12.673
- And we're trying to beat the intense heat
- 00:01:12.673 --> 00:01:15.843
- That we have been experiencing here
- 00:01:15.843 --> 00:01:17.678
- The last few days with the filming,
- 00:01:17.678 --> 00:01:19.981
- But in the distance,
- 00:01:19.981 --> 00:01:21.115
- We wanted you to be able to see the golan heights.
- 00:01:21.115 --> 00:01:25.386
- But that's the modern name.
- 00:01:25.386 --> 00:01:27.188
- In biblical times they,
- 00:01:27.188 --> 00:01:29.023
- The heights were known as the land of bashan.
- 00:01:29.023 --> 00:01:31.893
- And in episode four we looked at king og,
- 00:01:31.893 --> 00:01:34.729
- The king of the shone, who was in fact, described as a giant.
- 00:01:34.729 --> 00:01:40.501
- And we know that he opposed moses and the armies of israel
- 00:01:40.501 --> 00:01:44.205
- When they moved northward up through to the borders
- 00:01:44.205 --> 00:01:48.042
- Of the land of bashan, he resisted them.
- 00:01:48.042 --> 00:01:50.978
- Well, king og and all of the cities
- 00:01:50.978 --> 00:01:54.382
- On the golan heights, the land of bashan, behind
- 00:01:54.382 --> 00:01:57.185
- Me, were completely obliterated, destroyed.
- 00:01:57.185 --> 00:02:01.055
- In this episode we're going to examine the giants who appeared
- 00:02:01.055 --> 00:02:05.193
- After the flood, including king og, a bishop.
- 00:02:05.193 --> 00:02:12.867
- According to the biblical account,
- 00:02:13.634 --> 00:02:15.803
- God used the worldwide flood to destroy
- 00:02:15.803 --> 00:02:18.539
- All living things on the land in noah's day,
- 00:02:18.539 --> 00:02:21.609
- Which must have included the giants.
- 00:02:21.609 --> 00:02:24.545
- How, then, did races of giants appear after the flood?
- 00:02:24.545 --> 00:02:29.517
- The reappearance of giants after the flood is a
- 00:02:29.517 --> 00:02:32.420
- Mysterious thing, and we're not told exactly how it came about.
- 00:02:32.420 --> 00:02:37.358
- But it could be that the fallen angels continued
- 00:02:37.358 --> 00:02:40.194
- To have relations with, with human women. and,
- 00:02:40.194 --> 00:02:43.798
- And there was a regeneration of this, race of giants.
- 00:02:43.798 --> 00:02:47.268
- But it's clear that
- 00:02:47.268 --> 00:02:48.502
- There were giants in the land even in the days of joshua.
- 00:02:48.502 --> 00:02:52.039
- Could the giants have been hybrids part spirit and part
- 00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.376
- Flesh, or is there a more natural explanation?
- 00:02:55.376 --> 00:02:59.447
- Each one of us carries certain strands of dna
- 00:02:59.447 --> 00:03:03.217
- That will be passed on to our children,
- 00:03:03.217 --> 00:03:05.519
- And some that will not be passed on to our children.
- 00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:07.822
- Hopefully, the most healthy parts of us
- 00:03:07.822 --> 00:03:10.091
- Get passed on and the unhealthy parts don't get passed on.
- 00:03:10.091 --> 00:03:13.194
- But we also have
- 00:03:13.194 --> 00:03:14.262
- Different releases of hormones and different releases
- 00:03:15.263 --> 00:03:18.032
- Of growth patterns in our own dna that's packed into it.
- 00:03:18.032 --> 00:03:21.102
- You have to think about the miraculous elements of how
- 00:03:21.102 --> 00:03:24.205
- When a woman is born, she's born with all of the eggs
- 00:03:24.205 --> 00:03:27.241
- She'll ever have, and
- 00:03:27.241 --> 00:03:28.409
- Each one of those eggs carries its own unique dna combination
- 00:03:28.409 --> 00:03:32.480
- That it's it's unknown to us which one will come out
- 00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:35.216
- And which combination with the man will.
- 00:03:35.216 --> 00:03:37.285
- Well, we'll make certain, type of, offspring.
- 00:03:37.285 --> 00:03:40.855
- Even in my own children.
- 00:03:41.389 --> 00:03:43.324
- We've got four children,
- 00:03:43.324 --> 00:03:44.258
- And they're very different looking,
- 00:03:44.258 --> 00:03:46.093
- And they're very different size than their
- 00:03:46.093 --> 00:03:47.895
- Even their body shape is different in their build.
- 00:03:47.895 --> 00:03:50.331
- Some of them take from grandma and one takes from grandpa.
- 00:03:50.331 --> 00:03:53.334
- One of them even looks like my nephew.
- 00:03:53.334 --> 00:03:55.636
- And you can see all the resemblance there.
- 00:03:55.636 --> 00:03:57.738
- So the in the combination
- 00:03:57.738 --> 00:03:59.740
- Of the biology and god's beautiful creative design,
- 00:03:59.740 --> 00:04:03.711
- There are just times when that biology combination
- 00:04:03.711 --> 00:04:06.947
- Hits together and it creates an increased size
- 00:04:06.947 --> 00:04:09.917
- Or human growth hormone in someone, or
- 00:04:09.917 --> 00:04:12.920
- Perhaps they even carry an element of a growth problem.
- 00:04:12.920 --> 00:04:17.692
- You we've seen that in the earth before too,
- 00:04:17.692 --> 00:04:19.393
- Where somebody has a broken part of their human growth element
- 00:04:19.393 --> 00:04:23.564
- And they continue to grow when they should have stopped.
- 00:04:23.564 --> 00:04:26.467
- But if that person reproduces
- 00:04:26.467 --> 00:04:27.868
- And that gene gets passed on to the children,
- 00:04:27.868 --> 00:04:30.171
- Then you can have a series of people that carry that gene.
- 00:04:30.171 --> 00:04:32.973
- So it works in both the growth pattern.
- 00:04:32.973 --> 00:04:35.609
- It works in terms of health and illness.
- 00:04:35.609 --> 00:04:37.845
- It works in terms of how people look, personalities,
- 00:04:37.845 --> 00:04:41.615
- Patterns of, of who looks like whom in the family.
- 00:04:41.615 --> 00:04:44.919
- So for me,
- 00:04:44.919 --> 00:04:46.187
- It's not hard for me to imagine that packed away into god's
- 00:04:46.187 --> 00:04:49.490
- Miraculous dna and gene pool of each person
- 00:04:49.490 --> 00:04:53.160
- Is a combination that can make it reappear.
- 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:55.696
- Why does genesis six
- 00:04:56.163 --> 00:04:57.631
- Four refer to the giants as mighty men?
- 00:04:57.631 --> 00:05:01.802
- In genesis six four refers to the descendants of the giants
- 00:05:01.802 --> 00:05:05.773
- As mighty men, because they were a mixture
- 00:05:05.773 --> 00:05:08.909
- Between angelic beings and human genetics.
- 00:05:08.909 --> 00:05:14.382
- They they were known as, heroes, as men of renown
- 00:05:14.382 --> 00:05:18.386
- And people of great physical stature
- 00:05:18.386 --> 00:05:21.355
- And i think they had a kind of a mythic identity in,
- 00:05:21.355 --> 00:05:24.859
- In the, in the minds of the people of israel,
- 00:05:24.859 --> 00:05:28.062
- That there was a race of people that were physically,
- 00:05:28.062 --> 00:05:32.032
- Stronger, bigger and more capable than they were.
- 00:05:32.032 --> 00:05:35.903
- Why did israel not spare the lives of the women and children
- 00:05:35.903 --> 00:05:39.940
- In the towns and cities in the kingdom of og, also known
- 00:05:39.940 --> 00:05:43.744
- As the biblical land of bashan, present day golan heights,
- 00:05:43.744 --> 00:05:48.916
- God commanded the people of israel not to spare the women
- 00:05:48.916 --> 00:05:52.086
- And the children in their conquest.
- 00:05:52.086 --> 00:05:54.221
- And it's a difficult part of the scripture.
- 00:05:54.221 --> 00:05:57.024
- It has to do with the absolute nature of god's, demand
- 00:05:57.024 --> 00:06:02.329
- To keep his people separate from the evils of this world.
- 00:06:02.329 --> 00:06:06.901
- Remember, he had given the people of canaan
- 00:06:06.901 --> 00:06:10.271
- 400 years to repent.
- 00:06:10.271 --> 00:06:12.973
- And then he said, now the sword of judgment is come,
- 00:06:12.973 --> 00:06:17.511
- And i'm giving this land,
- 00:06:17.511 --> 00:06:19.213
- And i'm giving it to the people of israel.
- 00:06:19.213 --> 00:06:20.815
- But they are not to mix.
- 00:06:20.815 --> 00:06:22.450
- They are not to take on the practices
- 00:06:22.450 --> 00:06:24.952
- Of the people of this land.
- 00:06:24.952 --> 00:06:26.454
- And so it was a judgment on god's part,
- 00:06:26.454 --> 00:06:29.256
- And it was a judgment
- 00:06:29.256 --> 00:06:30.224
- Based on his concept, his truth of purity.
- 00:06:30.224 --> 00:06:33.294
- There are some difficult passages
- 00:06:33.294 --> 00:06:34.662
- In the bible that we need to deal with.
- 00:06:34.662 --> 00:06:36.697
- Many of them have to do
- 00:06:36.697 --> 00:06:37.798
- With the conquering
- 00:06:37.798 --> 00:06:39.366
- Period of time
- 00:06:39.366 --> 00:06:40.267
- Where god has called
- 00:06:40.267 --> 00:06:41.368
- The children of israel out of egypt through the desert,
- 00:06:41.368 --> 00:06:43.370
- And now we're into the land of promise.
- 00:06:43.370 --> 00:06:44.872
- But now the land has to be conquered.
- 00:06:44.872 --> 00:06:47.107
- It has to be subdued.
- 00:06:47.107 --> 00:06:48.709
- God told them, i'm not going to wipe out
- 00:06:48.709 --> 00:06:50.411
- All of your enemies at once,
- 00:06:50.411 --> 00:06:51.946
- Otherwise the land would not be in a healthy place.
- 00:06:51.946 --> 00:06:54.615
- So i'm going to leave them
- 00:06:54.615 --> 00:06:55.883
- Until you approach that part of land.
- 00:06:55.883 --> 00:06:58.786
- And then i'm going to let you
- 00:06:58.786 --> 00:06:59.954
- Conquer the people that are existing in canaan.
- 00:06:59.954 --> 00:07:03.123
- But one of the problematic areas for us,
- 00:07:03.123 --> 00:07:05.459
- As we read the scripture in today's
- 00:07:05.459 --> 00:07:07.294
- Perspective of the love, mercy, grace and gentleness of god
- 00:07:07.294 --> 00:07:11.432
- Is why was the israeli army in those days
- 00:07:11.432 --> 00:07:15.302
- Commanded to wipe out not only the soldiers
- 00:07:15.302 --> 00:07:17.304
- In the men, but the women and the children?
- 00:07:17.304 --> 00:07:18.906
- There needed to be a complete restart of the land of canaan,
- 00:07:18.906 --> 00:07:23.010
- Transitioning into the land of israel,
- 00:07:23.844 --> 00:07:25.513
- The land of covenant promise,
- 00:07:25.513 --> 00:07:26.847
- And the home of the jewish people.
- 00:07:26.847 --> 00:07:28.883
- But in order to have a complete restart, you have to make it
- 00:07:28.883 --> 00:07:32.820
- Clean of its enemies, clean of its culture,
- 00:07:32.820 --> 00:07:36.790
- Clean of its idolatrous, impact
- 00:07:36.790 --> 00:07:41.061
- And enticements on the israelite people.
- 00:07:41.061 --> 00:07:43.931
- But you also have to wipe out the concept of retaliation,
- 00:07:43.931 --> 00:07:47.635
- Of revenge.
- 00:07:47.968 --> 00:07:49.403
- You see, if you go into a land and you only take out the men,
- 00:07:49.403 --> 00:07:52.907
- You're still going to have the idolatrous culture
- 00:07:52.907 --> 00:07:55.142
- That's going to exist in the women and the children.
- 00:07:55.142 --> 00:07:57.278
- But you're also going to have
- 00:07:57.278 --> 00:07:58.812
- A continuation in the coming generations of revenge.
- 00:07:58.812 --> 00:08:01.882
- Those people are going to want revenge
- 00:08:01.882 --> 00:08:04.485
- On the conquerors that came into the land.
- 00:08:04.485 --> 00:08:06.987
- So the only way you can
- 00:08:06.987 --> 00:08:08.122
- Truly have a holy nation, truly have a clean slate.
- 00:08:08.122 --> 00:08:11.959
- To be an example to the world is you have to get rid of the
- 00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.195
- The enemies.
- 00:08:15.195 --> 00:08:16.230
- You have to get rid of the idolatrous culture,
- 00:08:16.230 --> 00:08:18.332
- And you have to figure out a way to get rid of the possible
- 00:08:18.332 --> 00:08:21.435
- Bility of future revengeful acts.
- 00:08:21.435 --> 00:08:24.605
- That could be why god said, even though this is a harsh moment,
- 00:08:24.605 --> 00:08:29.643
- It will actually benefit the world greater
- 00:08:29.643 --> 00:08:32.446
- If we wipe them out.
- 00:08:32.446 --> 00:08:34.348
- Start over as a holy nation, which is a beacon on a hill
- 00:08:34.348 --> 00:08:37.618
- To the rest of the world
- 00:08:37.618 --> 00:08:39.019
- Of what my kingdom on earth can look like.
- 00:08:39.019 --> 00:08:41.822
- But we can't do that if we have these constant
- 00:08:41.822 --> 00:08:45.059
- Circling back of battles of idolatry
- 00:08:45.059 --> 00:08:47.761
- And culture and paganism and revenge culture
- 00:08:47.761 --> 00:08:51.599
- That we're always fighting, so for me,
- 00:08:51.599 --> 00:08:53.934
- We had to start with the clean slate.
- 00:08:53.934 --> 00:08:55.436
- It's part of how you do that.
- 00:08:55.436 --> 00:08:58.238
- God commanded
- 00:08:58.606 --> 00:08:59.573
- Israel not to show mercy to women and children.
- 00:08:59.573 --> 00:09:02.610
- In certain instances,
- 00:09:02.610 --> 00:09:04.411
- Perhaps, rebellion was so fiercely entrenched
- 00:09:04.411 --> 00:09:06.947
- In the spiritual dna of the giant races
- 00:09:06.947 --> 00:09:09.717
- That this is the reason god told israel to wipe them out,
- 00:09:09.717 --> 00:09:14.054
- Even if this included their women and children.
- 00:09:14.054 --> 00:09:18.192
- Oh oh,
- 00:09:18.392 --> 00:09:23.931
- Don't go away.
- 00:09:24.264 --> 00:09:25.265
- After this short break, doctor
- 00:09:25.265 --> 00:09:26.667
- John tweedie returns with his teaching.
- 00:09:26.667 --> 00:09:30.537
- For nearly 2000 years, christians have debated
- 00:09:31.438 --> 00:09:34.608
- The mysteries of the final book of the new testament.

- 00:10:26.493 --> 00:10:39.339
- To. as we saw in the introduction,
- 00:10:40.074 --> 00:10:42.109
- There were giants in the land of israel,
- 00:10:42.109 --> 00:10:44.878
- Both before and after noah's flood.
- 00:10:44.878 --> 00:10:48.182
- Now we know that
- 00:10:48.182 --> 00:10:48.916
- The ones that were before
- 00:10:48.916 --> 00:10:50.117
- The flood must have been wiped out in the flood.
- 00:10:50.117 --> 00:10:53.253
- But the mystery is, how did they appear again afterwards?
- 00:10:53.253 --> 00:10:57.157
- So we're left wondering,
- 00:10:57.157 --> 00:10:58.859
- And we can ask the question, could noah's offspring
- 00:10:58.859 --> 00:11:02.262
- Have had a corrupted dna because of what happened earlier?
- 00:11:02.262 --> 00:11:06.567
- Now that's we would have to say then either
- 00:11:06.567 --> 00:11:09.603
- Noah's sons or noah's daughters in law had a corrupted dna.
- 00:11:09.603 --> 00:11:14.808
- So this is the mystery.
- 00:11:14.808 --> 00:11:16.310
- But let me go back to genesis chapter six, verse four.
- 00:11:16.310 --> 00:11:20.547
- Now we studied this in episode four,
- 00:11:20.547 --> 00:11:24.384
- But i've come back to it because it's so intriguing
- 00:11:24.384 --> 00:11:27.521
- To try to find out
- 00:11:27.521 --> 00:11:28.522
- What were the giants came from after the flood,
- 00:11:28.522 --> 00:11:32.292
- But how did they get there in the first place?
- 00:11:32.292 --> 00:11:34.027
- Well, genesis six verse four, we read this
- 00:11:34.027 --> 00:11:37.498
- There were giants on the earth in those days.
- 00:11:37.498 --> 00:11:41.368
- And also afterward.
- 00:11:41.368 --> 00:11:43.137
- Well, how when the sons of god came in
- 00:11:43.137 --> 00:11:46.507
- To the daughters of men and they bore children to them?
- 00:11:46.507 --> 00:11:50.244
- Now in episode four, we spent some time examining
- 00:11:50.244 --> 00:11:54.681
- Phrase the phrase sons of god in the book of job,
- 00:11:54.681 --> 00:11:58.552
- And i won't take time to go there simply to say
- 00:11:58.552 --> 00:12:01.688
- That in both in those instances in the book of job.
- 00:12:01.688 --> 00:12:05.459
- And there's another reference in the book of daniel as well,
- 00:12:05.459 --> 00:12:08.362
- Actually in daniel 325 and then of course, in genesis
- 00:12:08.362 --> 00:12:12.900
- Six verses two and four, the phrase sons of god is used
- 00:12:12.900 --> 00:12:17.704
- Been in all of these instances, it means angels.
- 00:12:17.704 --> 00:12:22.442
- So sons of god then, as far as we can tell,
- 00:12:22.442 --> 00:12:26.847
- Means that angels, interbred with human women.
- 00:12:26.847 --> 00:12:31.285
- In other words, the angels
- 00:12:31.285 --> 00:12:32.719
- We know they can take human form, but in this case,
- 00:12:32.719 --> 00:12:35.489
- They left their abode there. first.
- 00:12:35.489 --> 00:12:37.558
- The state, as peter says in his second new testament letter,
- 00:12:37.558 --> 00:12:41.361
- In rebellion against god.
- 00:12:41.361 --> 00:12:43.831
- And then they interbred with women of the earth,
- 00:12:43.831 --> 00:12:46.600
- And it produced a hybrid race or race of giants,
- 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:51.872
- In fact, the form giants, but nonetheless giants.
- 00:12:51.872 --> 00:12:55.843
- And that seems to have been
- 00:12:55.843 --> 00:12:57.644
- Almost the zenith of the corruption.
- 00:12:57.644 --> 00:12:59.746
- But it was certainly part of the corruption that
- 00:12:59.746 --> 00:13:02.983
- And the reason god caused the flood
- 00:13:02.983 --> 00:13:06.420
- And destroyed all flesh saved noah and his immediate family.
- 00:13:06.420 --> 00:13:10.824
- In other words, a family of eight people. now,
- 00:13:10.824 --> 00:13:14.294
- There are a couple of possibilities
- 00:13:15.095 --> 00:13:16.830
- For the origins of the giants, and i'll explain it this way.
- 00:13:16.830 --> 00:13:20.767
- One would be that men were possessed, men
- 00:13:21.635 --> 00:13:24.037
- Possessed by demons, fathered children by human women.
- 00:13:24.037 --> 00:13:27.741
- So that's one possibility.
- 00:13:27.741 --> 00:13:30.244
- The other possibility, which is the one
- 00:13:30.244 --> 00:13:31.979
- That i alluded to before, is that women were impregnated
- 00:13:31.979 --> 00:13:35.816
- By rebellious angels.
- 00:13:35.816 --> 00:13:38.518
- And let me remind you of what i said in episode four,
- 00:13:38.518 --> 00:13:42.723
- In new testament times, in the in the times of jesus.
- 00:13:42.723 --> 00:13:46.126
- Now, i'm by the shores of the sea of galilee,
- 00:13:46.126 --> 00:13:50.030
- And you can see mount or bell behind
- 00:13:50.030 --> 00:13:51.865
- Me, and mount or bell stands above a village,
- 00:13:51.865 --> 00:13:56.003
- An ancient village called magdala.
- 00:13:56.003 --> 00:13:59.239
- And from magdala we get mary of magdala,
- 00:13:59.239 --> 00:14:02.643
- As we know as mary magdalene.
- 00:14:02.643 --> 00:14:05.779
- So it was along these shores that jesus began
- 00:14:05.779 --> 00:14:09.116
- His formal ministry by calling his disciples
- 00:14:09.116 --> 00:14:12.653
- And by doing his miracles, many of them in capernaum,
- 00:14:12.653 --> 00:14:15.756
- Which is in fact along the shoreline behind the camera.
- 00:14:15.756 --> 00:14:19.326
- So it all began here.
- 00:14:19.326 --> 00:14:21.161
- But if you'd been here in those days,
- 00:14:21.161 --> 00:14:24.531
- And you talked to the people, the jewish people,
- 00:14:24.531 --> 00:14:27.100
- And asked for an explanation of the demons, and in fact,
- 00:14:27.100 --> 00:14:31.138
- In mark chapter one, we have the incident
- 00:14:31.138 --> 00:14:33.006
- Where jesus enters the synagogue in capernaum,
- 00:14:33.006 --> 00:14:36.576
- And a man has a violent reaction,
- 00:14:36.576 --> 00:14:38.645
- And he is a man possessed of demons.
- 00:14:38.645 --> 00:14:41.181
- And of course, jesus speaks to the demons and cast them out.
- 00:14:41.181 --> 00:14:45.452
- Now if you'd said to the people what on earth happened?
- 00:14:45.452 --> 00:14:48.322
- They would say, well,
- 00:14:48.322 --> 00:14:49.323
- That man had disembodied spirits, within him.
- 00:14:49.323 --> 00:14:53.994
- We speak of them as demons today.
- 00:14:53.994 --> 00:14:56.129
- But as i said in episode four,
- 00:14:56.129 --> 00:14:58.832
- The idea comes and the word that would would have been used
- 00:14:58.832 --> 00:15:02.002
- At the time.
- 00:15:02.002 --> 00:15:03.236
- And it's a compound word taboo, meaning dead and nightfall,
- 00:15:03.236 --> 00:15:08.942
- Which is the singular form of nephilim.
- 00:15:08.942 --> 00:15:12.479
- And nephilim means giants.
- 00:15:12.479 --> 00:15:14.181
- So, tamo fall dead giant.
- 00:15:14.181 --> 00:15:19.052
- That's how the jewish people understood the demons.
- 00:15:19.052 --> 00:15:22.189
- They were the.
- 00:15:22.189 --> 00:15:23.657
- They were the spirits, left over
- 00:15:23.657 --> 00:15:26.326
- From the giants who were destroyed in the flood.
- 00:15:26.326 --> 00:15:29.429
- And their physical natures
- 00:15:29.429 --> 00:15:30.797
- Were destroyed, but they didn't remember.
- 00:15:30.797 --> 00:15:32.566
- If there were angels to begin with.
- 00:15:33.367 --> 00:15:36.203
- And there's.
- 00:15:36.203 --> 00:15:36.903
- The angels are spirit beings.
- 00:15:36.903 --> 00:15:38.872
- They're not subject to death.
- 00:15:38.872 --> 00:15:40.941
- And so their spirits lived on in the form of demons.
- 00:15:40.941 --> 00:15:45.045
- We have that other incident in mark chapter five,
- 00:15:45.045 --> 00:15:47.314
- Where jesus crosses the sea of galilee,
- 00:15:47.314 --> 00:15:49.683
- Over there to what we call the golan heights,
- 00:15:49.683 --> 00:15:53.220
- And he is confronted by a man thoroughly possessed.
- 00:15:53.220 --> 00:15:56.890
- And you can read the account in mark chapter five,
- 00:15:56.890 --> 00:15:59.059
- And i won't
- 00:15:59.059 --> 00:16:00.260
- Take the time to go there, but basically the man is set free.
- 00:16:00.260 --> 00:16:03.964
- But it's interesting in the encounter
- 00:16:03.964 --> 00:16:05.799
- With the demons, the demons beg jesus and ask him to let them.
- 00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:09.803
- If they're going to be cast out of the man,
- 00:16:09.803 --> 00:16:11.905
- Let us enter the swine.
- 00:16:11.905 --> 00:16:13.507
- And there was a
- 00:16:13.507 --> 00:16:14.574
- Herd of some 2000 pigs grazing on that side of the
- 00:16:14.574 --> 00:16:18.445
- Sea of galilee.
- 00:16:18.445 --> 00:16:19.346
- You wouldn't have found them here,
- 00:16:19.346 --> 00:16:20.747
- But over there was non-jewish gentile territory.
- 00:16:20.747 --> 00:16:24.117
- And of course, the 2000 pigs ran headlong into the sea
- 00:16:24.117 --> 00:16:27.287
- And drowned camel defile, dead
- 00:16:27.287 --> 00:16:30.957
- Spirits, otherwise known as demons.
- 00:16:30.957 --> 00:16:34.861
- Now. and in fact, the assyrians, who wrote the dead sea scrolls
- 00:16:34.861 --> 00:16:38.732
- And they were found in 1947, down by the dead sea.
- 00:16:38.732 --> 00:16:43.403
- They write of the same thing
- 00:16:43.403 --> 00:16:45.639
- As demons being disembodied spirits.
- 00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:49.409
- So that's that's the context.
- 00:16:49.409 --> 00:16:51.812
- Now, the first mention of giants after the flood
- 00:16:51.812 --> 00:16:55.248
- Occurs in numbers 13.
- 00:16:55.248 --> 00:16:58.251
- But let me give you this broader
- 00:16:58.251 --> 00:16:59.553
- Context in verse one of numbers chapter 13.
- 00:16:59.553 --> 00:17:03.457
- And the lord spoke
- 00:17:03.457 --> 00:17:04.624
- To moses, saying, send men to spy out the land of canaan,
- 00:17:04.624 --> 00:17:07.527
- Which i am giving to the children of israel
- 00:17:07.527 --> 00:17:10.163
- From each tribe of their fathers.
- 00:17:10.163 --> 00:17:12.099
- You shall send a man, everyone, a leader among them.
- 00:17:12.099 --> 00:17:16.136
- And then in verse 21, so they went up
- 00:17:16.136 --> 00:17:18.905
- And spit out the land from the wilderness of zin,
- 00:17:18.905 --> 00:17:21.641
- As far as rahab, near the entrance of her mouth.
- 00:17:21.641 --> 00:17:25.479
- And they went up through the south, and came to hebron.
- 00:17:25.479 --> 00:17:28.381
- I, heman, shai, tamar, i,
- 00:17:28.381 --> 00:17:31.485
- The descendants of enoch, were there.
- 00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:34.488
- Now hebron was built seven years before zion in egypt.
- 00:17:34.488 --> 00:17:38.592
- Well, what's significant about the descendants of anak?
- 00:17:38.592 --> 00:17:41.995
- I'm going to show you.
- 00:17:41.995 --> 00:17:43.597
- And as we move forward
- 00:17:44.064 --> 00:17:45.799
- In the scriptures, in numbers 13, verse 33,
- 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:50.070
- There we saw the giants, the descendants of anacortes
- 00:17:50.070 --> 00:17:53.573
- Came from the giants,
- 00:17:53.573 --> 00:17:55.142
- And we were like grasshoppers in our own sight.
- 00:17:55.142 --> 00:17:58.178
- And so we were in their sight.
- 00:17:58.178 --> 00:18:00.213
- So the spies brought back this report.
- 00:18:00.213 --> 00:18:03.283
- There were 12 spies,
- 00:18:03.283 --> 00:18:04.718
- And they brought back this very negative report.
- 00:18:04.718 --> 00:18:06.987
- But what they had seen as they spied out
- 00:18:06.987 --> 00:18:08.989
- The land of canaan with these giant men,
- 00:18:08.989 --> 00:18:12.259
- As they explained in the scripture,
- 00:18:12.259 --> 00:18:14.094
- The sons of anarchy or otherwise, the anakin's now,
- 00:18:14.094 --> 00:18:18.598
- The people hearing this did not want to enter
- 00:18:18.598 --> 00:18:21.668
- The promised land.
- 00:18:21.668 --> 00:18:22.769
- And in fact, they rebelled against moses
- 00:18:22.769 --> 00:18:24.871
- And aaron, his brother, who was the high priest.
- 00:18:24.871 --> 00:18:27.307
- And they were turned back at that place of kadesh barnea.
- 00:18:27.307 --> 00:18:31.912
- Now we know that caleb and joshua brought back
- 00:18:31.912 --> 00:18:35.348
- A positive report.
- 00:18:35.348 --> 00:18:36.483
- They had the faith to say,
- 00:18:36.483 --> 00:18:37.951
- We can actually, we can conquer these giants.
- 00:18:37.951 --> 00:18:41.087
- You know, it's interesting.
- 00:18:41.087 --> 00:18:42.122
- I was in hebron, which was mentioned there,
- 00:18:42.122 --> 00:18:45.625
- Many years ago,
- 00:18:45.625 --> 00:18:47.093
- And there were archeologists who were digging in hebron,
- 00:18:47.093 --> 00:18:50.096
- And they had uncovered stairways and gates, and we asked them,
- 00:18:50.096 --> 00:18:54.668
- What are these?
- 00:18:54.668 --> 00:18:55.936
- They said, these were built for giants who lived here long ago.
- 00:18:55.936 --> 00:19:00.740
- And the irony in the scripture for me is that caleb,
- 00:19:00.740 --> 00:19:03.910
- Who was more than 80 years of age by this time,
- 00:19:03.910 --> 00:19:06.880
- When he was asked which part of israel
- 00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:08.882
- He wanted for his inheritance, he said, i want to go to hebron.
- 00:19:08.882 --> 00:19:13.286
- That meant that he would have to fight the giants at hebron.
- 00:19:13.286 --> 00:19:17.123
- So this is the same caleb who speaks up here.
- 00:19:17.123 --> 00:19:20.060
- As the rebellion takes place in the
- 00:19:20.060 --> 00:19:22.562
- In the camp of israel in verse 30 of numbers 13.
- 00:19:22.562 --> 00:19:25.966
- Then caleb quieted the people before moses and said,
- 00:19:25.966 --> 00:19:29.469
- Let us go up at once and take possession,
- 00:19:29.469 --> 00:19:32.505
- For we are well able to overcome it.
- 00:19:32.505 --> 00:19:35.275
- Now as we move forward, we come again to king og.
- 00:19:35.275 --> 00:19:41.147
- Who was
- 00:19:41.381 --> 00:19:42.249
- The king of the region of bashan.
- 00:19:42.249 --> 00:19:45.352
- And i mentioned that in the introduction
- 00:19:45.352 --> 00:19:47.087
- Which we called today.
- 00:19:47.087 --> 00:19:48.355
- Bashan today is known as the golan heights,
- 00:19:48.355 --> 00:19:52.092
- And they turn him one up by the way to bashan.
- 00:19:52.092 --> 00:19:55.595
- So king argued, bashan went out against them,
- 00:19:55.595 --> 00:19:58.331
- He and all his people to battle at adre i.
- 00:19:58.331 --> 00:20:02.469
- Then the lord said to moses, do not fear him, for
- 00:20:02.469 --> 00:20:06.273
- I have delivered him into your hand with all his people
- 00:20:06.273 --> 00:20:10.043
- And his land, and you shall do to him as you did.
- 00:20:10.043 --> 00:20:12.846
- Decide on king of the amorites, who dwelt in hash bun.
- 00:20:12.846 --> 00:20:17.083
- So they defeated him, his sons, and all his people,
- 00:20:17.083 --> 00:20:21.054
- Until there was no survivor left him.
- 00:20:21.054 --> 00:20:23.923
- And they took possession of his land.
- 00:20:23.923 --> 00:20:26.660
- And i explained in episode four that they wiped out the women
- 00:20:26.660 --> 00:20:30.196
- And the children,
- 00:20:30.196 --> 00:20:31.164
- Which was very unusual for the army of israel.
- 00:20:31.164 --> 00:20:34.601
- And here we read again that there was no survivor.
- 00:20:34.601 --> 00:20:37.704
- And i suggested in that particular episode
- 00:20:37.704 --> 00:20:41.007
- That, remember, these were the descendants of the giants.
- 00:20:41.007 --> 00:20:44.444
- They had a corrupted dna.
- 00:20:44.444 --> 00:20:46.279
- Rebellion was in their gene pool.
- 00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:49.182
- And so it seems, and i can't think of another explanation,
- 00:20:49.182 --> 00:20:53.953
- That for israel, not showing mercy to women and children,
- 00:20:53.953 --> 00:20:57.023
- But they were wiping out the race of giants.
- 00:20:57.023 --> 00:21:00.293
- Now, the word that's used in
- 00:21:00.293 --> 00:21:03.830
- Of the giants in numbers 13 and verse 33, it's
- 00:21:03.830 --> 00:21:07.667
- The first reference, of the giants after the flood.
- 00:21:07.667 --> 00:21:11.838
- It's the same word
- 00:21:11.838 --> 00:21:13.039
- That's used in genesis six, in verse two, in verse four.
- 00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:17.410
- And it's the word nephilim.
- 00:21:17.410 --> 00:21:19.312
- It's only used in these places in the old testament.
- 00:21:19.312 --> 00:21:22.549
- And the translation is giants.
- 00:21:22.549 --> 00:21:26.353
- And so i raised the question earlier, could this,
- 00:21:26.353 --> 00:21:30.423
- Could there have been a corrupted dna
- 00:21:30.423 --> 00:21:33.193
- In either in noah's sons or in his daughters in law?
- 00:21:33.193 --> 00:21:37.497
- Now, this is an interesting thing.
- 00:21:37.497 --> 00:21:39.666
- We know that ham's wife in particular gave birth to canaan.
- 00:21:39.666 --> 00:21:44.904
- That was one of her sons.
- 00:21:44.904 --> 00:21:46.973
- And ark, mentioned in numbers 1333,
- 00:21:46.973 --> 00:21:51.077
- Was a descendant of canaan and ham.
- 00:21:51.077 --> 00:21:54.280
- And it begs the question, did ham's wife have a corrupted dna?
- 00:21:54.280 --> 00:21:58.918
- But remember, ham was cursed by his father noah,
- 00:21:58.918 --> 00:22:02.722
- Because he saw him naked.
- 00:22:02.722 --> 00:22:04.657
- He didn't cover him up.
- 00:22:04.657 --> 00:22:05.725
- He ran out to tell his two brothers.
- 00:22:05.725 --> 00:22:07.927
- They approached their father backwards, covered him
- 00:22:07.927 --> 00:22:11.131
- With a blanket, and following that noah was upset
- 00:22:11.131 --> 00:22:14.467
- With ham, cursed him, but blessed the other two sons.
- 00:22:14.467 --> 00:22:18.738
- So there's so much in this passage,
- 00:22:18.738 --> 00:22:21.508
- And the story of the giants that, you know, we can only
- 00:22:21.508 --> 00:22:26.012
- We can only speculate how this dna
- 00:22:26.012 --> 00:22:29.416
- Got corrupted in the first place.
- 00:22:29.416 --> 00:22:32.018
- Now, king og opposition was wiped out,
- 00:22:32.018 --> 00:22:35.388
- And that seemed to be the end of the race of giants.
- 00:22:35.388 --> 00:22:38.992
- But it's interesting,
- 00:22:38.992 --> 00:22:40.360
- The jewish, roman historian flavius josephus
- 00:22:40.360 --> 00:22:44.130
- Mentions that the skeletons of giants
- 00:22:44.130 --> 00:22:47.767
- Were still visible in his day, and that would be 2000
- 00:22:47.767 --> 00:22:52.005
- Years ago.
- 00:22:52.005 --> 00:22:53.139
- Now, there's another famous story
- 00:22:53.139 --> 00:22:54.908
- In the old testament about a clash between a shepherd
- 00:22:54.908 --> 00:22:58.378
- Boy, a jewish boy and a philistine giant.
- 00:22:58.378 --> 00:23:01.981
- But i'll come back to that after this short break.
- 00:23:01.981 --> 00:23:13.927
- If you're not already a christian, you can become one.
- 00:23:14.994 --> 00:23:17.430
- The bible says,
- 00:23:17.430 --> 00:23:18.498
- If you confess with your mouth the lord jesus christ
- 00:23:18.498 --> 00:23:21.367
- And believe in your heart that god raised him
- 00:23:21.367 --> 00:23:23.303
- From the dead, you will be saved.
- 00:23:23.303 --> 00:23:27.207
- See, for i, that simply means we are christians
- 00:23:27.207 --> 00:23:30.376
- Who care about israel,
- 00:23:30.376 --> 00:23:32.579
- And somebody needs to care for the people of israel today
- 00:23:32.579 --> 00:23:35.381
- Because they are suffering so much.
- 00:23:35.381 --> 00:23:37.417
- First of all, with a massacre that occurred on october
- 00:23:37.417 --> 00:23:40.420
- 7th, 2023, and then rocket barrages from the gaza strip
- 00:23:40.420 --> 00:23:45.592
- And more recently, ballistic missiles from iran.
- 00:23:45.592 --> 00:23:49.362
- We're here to help the less fortunate,
- 00:23:49.362 --> 00:23:51.731
- The hungry, the homeless, children at risk,
- 00:23:51.731 --> 00:23:54.701
- Special children that need 24 seven care.
- 00:23:54.701 --> 00:23:58.671
- But we can't do it alone.
- 00:23:58.671 --> 00:24:00.006
- We need your help. please.
- 00:24:00.006 --> 00:24:02.108
- You'll see the numbers on the screen.
- 00:24:02.108 --> 00:24:04.377
- You'll see the websites that we have.
- 00:24:04.377 --> 00:24:06.513
- Please go to the phone or go to the website.
- 00:24:06.513 --> 00:24:09.649
- Make a donation.
- 00:24:09.649 --> 00:24:10.884
- Stand with us to stand with israel's less fortunate people.
- 00:24:10.884 --> 00:24:16.489
- Thank you.
- 00:24:16.789 --> 00:24:19.826
- Here.
- 00:24:20.059 --> 00:24:28.301
- As you can
- 00:24:28.601 --> 00:24:29.669
- Tell, we've shifted location for this conclusion.
- 00:24:29.669 --> 00:24:32.272
- Episode ten
- 00:24:32.272 --> 00:24:33.406
- The return of the giants. and just before the break,
- 00:24:33.406 --> 00:24:35.909
- I mentioned a clash with the giant.
- 00:24:35.909 --> 00:24:39.312
- So i'm standing in the valley of elah, also known
- 00:24:39.312 --> 00:24:42.282
- As the valley of the terrible turban trees.
- 00:24:42.282 --> 00:24:45.685
- And the clash between david, the shepherd boy from bethlehem,
- 00:24:45.685 --> 00:24:48.988
- And goliath from death in philistine,
- 00:24:48.988 --> 00:24:52.392
- Which is that way on the coast, took place here.
- 00:24:52.392 --> 00:24:55.995
- David came from bethlehem, which is to my left,
- 00:24:55.995 --> 00:24:59.465
- And the army of israel was assembled
- 00:24:59.465 --> 00:25:02.068
- On the ridges behind me, and the army of the philistines
- 00:25:02.068 --> 00:25:06.606
- On the ridge behind the camera, which will show you in a
- 00:25:06.606 --> 00:25:10.076
- Broad shot.
- 00:25:10.076 --> 00:25:11.344
- But you know the story from first samuel chapter 17,
- 00:25:11.344 --> 00:25:15.214
- That goliath challenged the armies of israel
- 00:25:15.214 --> 00:25:17.850
- And in a sense challenged the god of israel
- 00:25:17.850 --> 00:25:20.420
- To send a man down here and let's settle accounts.
- 00:25:20.420 --> 00:25:23.456
- Whoever wins,
- 00:25:23.456 --> 00:25:24.924
- One will be the conqueror, the other will be the servant.
- 00:25:24.924 --> 00:25:28.428
- And then the armies can disperse
- 00:25:28.428 --> 00:25:29.929
- And go back where they came from.
- 00:25:29.929 --> 00:25:31.297
- Well, no man of israel was brave enough
- 00:25:31.297 --> 00:25:34.567
- To come down off that ridge, and confront goliath,
- 00:25:34.567 --> 00:25:38.304
- Because he was somewhere between 10 and 13ft tall
- 00:25:38.304 --> 00:25:41.541
- With a coat of mail, a probably weighed 195 pounds,
- 00:25:41.541 --> 00:25:45.144
- And a a javelin and a sword, and equipped for battle.
- 00:25:45.144 --> 00:25:50.917
- Felicity, his
- 00:25:51.284 --> 00:25:52.051
- Best and biggest warrior.
- 00:25:52.051 --> 00:25:55.254
- Well, some were behind me.
- 00:25:55.254 --> 00:25:57.323
- And one of the paths that you can probably see a shepherd boy.
- 00:25:57.323 --> 00:26:01.427
- Well, the slingshot wandered down the hill
- 00:26:01.427 --> 00:26:05.264
- And he picked up five smooth stones from the creek
- 00:26:05.264 --> 00:26:08.468
- Where i got this one,
- 00:26:08.468 --> 00:26:09.702
- Which is just below the ridge, prepared to do battle with five.
- 00:26:09.702 --> 00:26:13.773
- Well, it said that goliath
- 00:26:13.773 --> 00:26:15.575
- Had four brothers, and perhaps david
- 00:26:15.575 --> 00:26:17.210
- Thought, i'll have to fight them as well.
- 00:26:17.210 --> 00:26:19.012
- But more practically speaking, probably
- 00:26:19.012 --> 00:26:20.947
- Because of the coat of mail, the helmet.
- 00:26:20.947 --> 00:26:23.116
- If he didn't get them with the first,
- 00:26:23.116 --> 00:26:24.784
- He would have four more in reserve.
- 00:26:24.784 --> 00:26:27.754
- Well, david came down from the hill
- 00:26:27.754 --> 00:26:30.890
- And he said this
- 00:26:30.890 --> 00:26:33.326
- To the philistine in first samuel 17, verse 45.
- 00:26:33.326 --> 00:26:37.296
- Then david said to the philistine,
- 00:26:37.296 --> 00:26:38.798
- You come to me with a sword, with a spear,
- 00:26:38.798 --> 00:26:41.100
- And with a javelin,
- 00:26:41.100 --> 00:26:42.502
- But i come to you in the name of the lord of hosts,
- 00:26:42.502 --> 00:26:45.405
- The god of the armies of israel, whom you have defied.
- 00:26:45.405 --> 00:26:50.176
- And david went on from that declaration of his faith
- 00:26:50.176 --> 00:26:53.646
- In the god of israel, and slew the giant and settled the issue.
- 00:26:53.646 --> 00:26:58.551
- At least on that occasion, the world
- 00:26:58.551 --> 00:27:00.620
- Fights with giants after that, that came from felicity
- 00:27:00.620 --> 00:27:04.457
- About on this occasion, david was god's champion.
- 00:27:04.457 --> 00:27:09.028
- Now, in the next episode, and by the way,
- 00:27:09.028 --> 00:27:12.365
- That spirit of rebellion seemed to be in all of the giants,
- 00:27:12.365 --> 00:27:16.235
- And it continued on down the generations.
- 00:27:16.235 --> 00:27:18.404
- And in the next episode, we'll look at the tower of babel,
- 00:27:18.404 --> 00:27:22.008
- Where rebellion also surfaced.
- 00:27:22.008 --> 00:27:26.145
- Thanks for watching the prophetic connection.
- 00:27:27.113 --> 00:27:29.182
- Join us next time for a tower to heaven.
- 00:27:29.182 --> 00:27:29.182
