EP 77: The Genesis 6 Worldview

One of the foundational views of The Days of Noah podcast, and a Rosetta Stone to understanding the Bible, we talk on this episode why it's so important to correctly understand just who are the Sons of God in Genesis 6, what they did to corrupt humanity, and the implications for defending Biblical truth and why God had to do what he did (the Flood, the "devoted to destruction" against Nephilim tribes like the Canaanites). You simply will not understand the Bible correctly without getting this part right. Special thanks to Bryan Osborne and Ken Ham from Answers in Genesis for the inspiration to dig back into this topic as prep for our interview with Bryan, thanks to Rod Smith from The Millennial Mustard Seed podcast for joining Luke and I on this discussion, and for God's Holy Spirit for prompting me to take the prep I had done for talking with Bryan on our last episode, and turn it into its own discussion, as I felt God wanting me to highlight its importance and relevance as we truly do live in The Days of Noah!
