Genesis 6:12.
The worst case scenario was coming to fruition. God was
about to destroy the population of planet earth including
every beast with more water than they could have ever
imagined possible. Were they clueless as to what was
coming? “And spared
not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a
preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the
world of the ungodly;”
2 Peter 2:5.
It’s interesting that the Apostle Peter points out that
Noah was a preacher, yet Noah’s preaching obviously had no
effect on the rest of the antediluvian world.
There seems to be little difference in the mindset of
today’s populous as we review and compare the events of
that antediluvian world. There’s little notice by today’s
societies of the events that parallel the ancient past.
Most don’t even believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob let alone a flood that wiped out billions. Students
of prophecy are increasingly warning the world that now is
the time to prepare for their eternal destination as
humanity is currently living in these very precarious end
times, but are they listening?
“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall
wax cold.”
Matthew 24:12.
Here we’re confronted with the sad but quite serious
reminder that in the last days because of thriving
wickedness the love of many will grow cold. The phrase
“wax cold” comes from the Greek word
“psychō”,
which means to blow cold. Metaphorically the phrase
“wax cold” is
used in the sense of waning zeal or love. Jesus warns us
that the love of many will vanish in the final days of
planet earth. The tragic results of humanistic, atheistic
“we evolved from pond scum” teachings that have permeated
societies for decades have certainly taken their toll.
What we are witnessing in our society today has been
encroaching on us for many years. Is the waxing cold of
the human heart finally coming to a crescendo? Or is this
the onslaught of a soulless generation of hybrids being
unveiled? A little food for thought.
“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book,
even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro,
and knowledge shall be increased.”
Daniel 12:4.
The seal has been removed from Daniels book and knowledge
is increasing. I believe that some of that knowledge is
buried in Jude’s epistle – a little one chapter book that
really packs a wallop.
Before you read any further, I must interject that if you
have aligned yourself with the wrong interpretation of the
book of Genesis chapter 6 you will misinterpret the book
of Jude. When we understand the truth that a corrupting
influence invaded humanity at that particular point in the
time/space continuum (the antediluvian world), we can then
anticipate and prepare ourselves for what’s coming. The
similarities of that ancient world and ours today are
striking.
I will summarize Jude’s little epistle. Occasionally I’ll
insert the Greek word and the deeper meaning behind that
word for emphasis as we seek the revealing of God’s truth.
Jude begins his epistle with an admonishment. We are to
earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to
the saints. There’s a good reason for this as Jude is
going to take us on a journey into a very evil world – a
world of the malevolent supernatural. He’s going to be
referring to the last days just prior to the return of
Jesus Christ, but he will also take us back in time.
Concerning those last days something very wicked is going
to raise its ugly head and our faith will be attacked –
aggressively. To Jude it’s a future event; but to us today
the event is here. Jude is adamant that wickedness will be
so invasive that we, the saints of God, will find it
difficult but necessary to earnestly contend for our
faith. The original Greek word used by Jude for the phrase
“earnestly contend” is
“epagōnizomai”
which means “to contend about a thing, as that of a
combatant”. Jude suggests that we move into this combatant
mode with renewed zeal. How do we do that? Guns and knives
will not suffice against the supernatural, nor will they
do much good against a generation of enhanced Hybrids. You
might want to take a moment here and study Ephesians
chapter 6.
Jude points to a certain something coming upon the scene
in the last days. In the King James Version of our English
Bible we read “certain men” crept in “of old”, “ungodly
men”. According to the Greek word
“tis”, which
is rendered in English as “certain”, these were not
necessarily men. As you will see throughout the entirety
of Jude’s epistle he’s speaking of something quite
different than mere men. They were “of old” which points
to another era of humanity’s past. They were ungodly,
which when we look at the original Greek word we find it
means they held no reverence for God. If they weren’t men
what were they?
They crept in stealthily and craftily. When we read that
word craftily it should remind us of Genesis chapter 3
“Now the serpent was more
subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had
made”
Genesis 3:1. The Hebrew word for
“subtil” means
“subtle, shrewd, crafty, sly”. Sound familiar? It should,
Jude is referring to the same type of “being”. You might
be asking yourself why is Jude referring to “beings” of
the past. He’ll get to that directly.
“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were
before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men,
turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and
denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Jude 1:4.
Jude is not referring to false teachers as many Bible
teachers promote, but to “beings” of old who rejected the
grace of God and turned that grace into unbridled lust,
excess, licentiousness, lasciviousness, wantonness,
outrageousness, shamelessness, insolence, which is their
nature.
“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but
left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting
chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in
like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and
going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example,
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”
Jude 1:6-7.
Jude references the antediluvian period by explaining what
happened to the angels who were involved in that first
incursion into our world. They were punished for their
wickedness by God and are currently held in chains until
the judgment. It’s interesting that Jude lumps Sodom and
Gomorrha in with those fallen angels of Noah’s day.
When we realize that Satan cannot be working alone in this
world as he is not God, we can then come to grips with the
fact that he still has an innumerable army of fallen
angles ready to do his bidding. It’s not hard to then come
to the conclusion to which Jude is guiding us; fallen
angels will again participate in the same kind of
corruption the others were involved with before the flood.
Genesis chapter 6 tells us that
“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.”
Genesis 6:4.
The words “and also
after that” remind us that the evil of that era
would continue. The cities of Sodom and Gomorrha had
become extremely wicked because the same kind of
supernatural malevolent incursion occurred then as in the
pre-flood world.
The mention of going after strange flesh is another
obvious allusion to the antediluvian world. Jude is
speaking of the lust-filled attitude of fallen angels.
Men, too, had given themselves over to fornication and
went after strange flesh. The Greek words
“heteros sarx”
(strange flesh) speak of various types of flesh, not all
human, and following the context of his epistle Jude is
reintroducing us to a “being” that is not human. With the
Greek word “sarx”
we see Jude referring to the animal nature, animalistic
cravings. Jude speaks of the complete corruption of the
body, while participating in extremely egregious sexual
activity. The men and women of Sodom and Gomorrha, as well
as the surrounding cities, had completely corrupted
themselves through the wicked influence of fallen angles.
The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha was sudden and
final, their fall didn’t just occur overnight. The
wickedness that brought down all those cities took
generations of corruption. There must be no
misunderstanding here; Jude is not speaking of false
teachers leading their congregations astray. Just so there
is no confusion, Jude continually reminds us to whom he is
referring.
They are brute beasts, living creatures whose vocabulary
is nothing but blasphemies uttered continually, and yet
they have no intimate knowledge of who or what they are
blaspheming. They are senseless as they continually
corrupt themselves in all their ways like animals who know
not sin. They are prideful, soulless beasts. The
corruption of the human race is their agenda. They are
like a spot that spoils everything, like leaven it
permeates the whole of whatever it is put into. This
spoiling leaven destroys lives by diminishing then
eliminating the love people have for one another. Jude
explains that these “beings” are void of feelings, void of
any good intentions; they are without natural love and
affection. They are essentially the walking dead.
Jude is warning the last days Church of evil so
reprehensible they must be prepared for combat. He
explains that these beings are living and growing wild and
savage in the fields or woods; some will resemble men but
they are animals, fierce and boorish, rude, full of
violent passion, vehement, furious, and uncontrollable.
They are tossed to and fro by their raging restless
passions, foaming out like refuse worthy of the fire and
nothing else. Their actions are shameful, yet they have no
shame. They are disgraceful and have no honor. Who are
they? They are the progeny of fallen angels roaming the
land without fear of where they are heading.
Jude’s quote from the book of Enoch is very telling. The
evil that had spread throughout the antediluvian world in
Enoch’s day was cause for him to be given insight into the
future last day’s events prior to the judgment.He saw the Lord Jesus coming with an
innumerable number of His saints to execute His judgment
on all the ungodly fallen angels and their ungodly progeny
– along with all humankind who’ve rejected the truth of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Then Jude reminds the Church of the words of the Apostles
that these things would occur in the last days; that these
animalistic brutes would once again invade humanity and
corrupt the populous of earth through their sexual
escapades. These beings, being void of spirit, would
inhabit the earth for a season but would ultimately perish
forever in the fires of Hell.
I believe the hybridization of the human genome is the key
to the ever increasing wickedness that has been with
humankind for thousands of years, and it continues
unabated today. Without a doubt we can trace this
phenomenon back to the antediluvian world. There is no
indication that humanity today has even the slightest
concept that this progressive and very aggressive
co-mingling of beings of two distinct dimensions is
occurring – other than the constant talk of transhumanism,
which by the way seems to be a road many are willing to
take. In the antediluvian world this corruption didn’t
just happen over a period of a few decades but was
actually initiated during Adam’s day, at least a thousand
years prior to the flood. The last days began in the time
of the Apostles; this wickedness that we see escalating
today has been stealthily (craftily) increasing for
thousands of years.
What we think we know from mankind’s past has deceived
many into rejecting the truth of scriptures. It’s time to
embrace God’s truth and re-evaluate our own understanding
of the events of the antediluvian world. Never mind how it
makes you feel, feelings can be deceiving. The truth is,
what happened during the pre-flood era has returned in our
day and is burgeoning.
What these supernatural beings began in humanity’s past is
simply a continuation of the contamination of that
pre-deluge world – what they’ve been planning since the
serpent deceived Eve. These “malevolent beings” are bent
on fulfilling their leader’s ultimate goal, the conclusion
to human existence. Their modus operandi is to steal,
kill, and destroy. They are the fallen angels, they are
here, and they are intertwined with humanity for a reason,
to beget an ungodly progeny of hybrid (Nephilim), fully
demonic, soulless beings. They aren’t necessarily
appearing as giants these days but are actually being
developed to look like humans, so much so that we can’t
easily tell them apart from the rest of humanity. At least
not until they begin to demonstrate superhuman traits.
These beings are beginning to expose themselves to the
scrutiny of the public’s eye in ways we would never have
imagined. I was reading a book, “The Cosmic Chess Match”
by L.A. Marzulli, in which he includes a very interesting
video link
http://documentaryheaven.com/madness-in-the-fast-lane/.
Take the time to watch it as it is both frightening and
enlightening. Is this event an isolated occurrence?
Probably not.
We are witnessing the unfolding of prophecy. For the
saints, it won’t be much longer. The clouds of war are
amassing, the armies of the prince of the power of the air
are at the door, all the players are set, and the end is
in sight. “The Lord
knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and
to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be
punished:” 2
Peter 2:9.
