		Comment on JACK HIBBS NEPHILIM DOCTRINE OF DEMONS! by Tom Lessing (Discerning the World)		</title>

You will agree that in our studies of the Bible, we have only two alternatives to consider: truth and lies. John 14:6 says that Jesus is the very essence of truth, while John 8:44 declares that Satan is the father of all lies. The title &quot;father&quot; indicates that he is the source and originator of ALL lies. Unless Satan is anything but a demon, the Nephilim hypothesis cannot be anything but a doctrine of demons. It cannot be a doctrine of Jesus Christ, as you yourself agreed to in your comment.  

As for the Nephilim not being a salvation issue, the following. It may not have any bearing on salvation per se, but it surely disparages the unique incarnation and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which are two core elements of salvation. I wrote the following :



&lt;blockquote&gt;If Jesus’ reference was to fallen angels rather than the saints in heaven, then we must conclude that the fallen angels had at some time experienced a miraculous incarnational transformation from spirit to flesh.

Only the bond between two fleshly entities constitutes a divinely ordained marriage (Mark 10:8-9). Consequently, the Nephilim hypothesis undermines not only the doctrine of resurrection but also the doctrine of incarnation. This is very serious and dangerous.

Demons cannot incarnate themselves, and it is inconceivable that God would engage in such an act, which would be considered unholy. 

A small amount of leaven can lead one astray. Truth is not a matter of varying shades of grey; rather, it is an absolute quality of God (John 14:6). This unwavering truth delineates a precise gate and path that believers are encouraged to enter and traverse. (Matthew 7:13-14).

If the Nephilim is not considered a doctrinal issue, what justifies Jack Hibbs’ extensive focus on it, including preaching, developing an entire YouTube series, and authoring a book on the topic?&lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Your article raises some important theological points, and I agree with you on the core issue: angels cannot reproduce, cannot marry, and cannot incarnate into biological bodies. Jesus makes that clear in Matthew 22:30, and Hebrews 1:14 confirms that angels are spirits, not flesh. On that level, your angelology is solid, and the idea of angel‑human hybrids in Genesis 6 doesn’t hold up biblically.

But calling Jack Hibbs’ view a “doctrine of demons” goes further than Scripture requires. This is a secondary interpretive issue, not a salvation issue. Christians have disagreed on the identity of the “sons of God” for centuries without accusing one another of demonic doctrine.

A few key points matter here:

Jesus explicitly states that angels do not marry or reproduce. If angels could take reproductive bodies, Jesus’ statement would be false. That alone rules out angel‑human offspring.

Angels appearing as men is not the same as becoming biological men. They can manifest physically, but they do not take on DNA, chromosomes, or reproductive capability. Hebrews 1:14 and Luke 24:39 make that clear.

Genesis 6 describes marriage. The text says the “sons of God” took wives. Marriage is a human covenant, not an angelic activity.

The Nephilim appear again after the flood in Numbers 13:33. If they were hybrids wiped out by the flood, they couldn’t reappear. That shows they were human warrior clans, not supernatural beings.

And the flood judged human sin, not angelic sin. Genesis 6:5 says “the wickedness of man was great.” The text never blames angels for corrupting the earth.

Where your article is strong is in its angelology and its critique of the hybrid theory. Where it overreaches is in treating this as a heresy-level issue and attacking the man instead of the argument. We can reject the hybrid view without dividing the body of Christ unnecessarily.

The biblical data supports a human interpretation of Genesis 6, but the tone should match the weight of the doctrine. This is not a gospel-level issue.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In the following short video, Jonathan Cahn denies the eternal Sonship of Jesus Christ and really the deity of Jesus Christ.  Cahn deliberately misinterprets that Jesus was the only begotten of the Father as meaning Jesus was given a literal birth in Heaven and therefore His birth to Mary was His second birth.   This is worth listening to and I think adding to the Cahn expose page.  It&#039;s proof that Cahn is a liar and like all Rabbi&#039;s, must deny the deity of Jesus Christ.  .

Let&#039;s rather stick to the Bible which uses the following names: demons, fallen angels, evil spirits, unclean spirits. The names Greys, Reptilians, Pleiadians never appear in the Bible. They are manmade titles. Giants still exists in our time. When they die, are thet going to turn into demons? In short, its a demonic doctrine, and therefore, a lie of Satan. Are you a big fan of Jack Hibbs?]]></description>

Hi TarheelTraveler

Very good points you make. I have another article exposing John Calvin as a Jesuit Freemason, who got his teaching from St Augustine (hailed as father of the Roman Catholic church.)]]></description>

Hi Byron

I spent a lot of time on her site as a baby baby Christian and years later after she disappeared I actually did an article on her. She exposed NAR but she was in some serious error herself. 

She was plagued by clairvoyance (having  dreams that were supposed to be biblical) - what utter nonsense. 
She was also anti pre-trib. 
There were stories of her committing theft as she owned a publishing company - she stole from people who came to her to have their books published. 

She taught me a lot about how to spot a false teacher, Miriam being one of them.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[What do you think about UFOs? What kind of beings are the Greys, Reptilians, Pleiadians? I think they are fallen angels. I also think that demons are the spirits of giants. What could the abductions of people and livestock that turn up mutilated be?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you for this excellent piece of research. It is clear from the comments that this article dealt across various topics related to false teacher Cahn. It is also evident in the comments how much exposure someone might have had to the various related topics pertinent to Cahn&#039;s apostasy. This article covered a number of areas that I was familiar with and introduced new areas that I was not familiar with. Thank you DTW. May the Lord keep you.]]></description>
