Genesis 6
February 8, 1987
INTRODUCTION: Genesis chapter 6 is the story of God's judgment upon the world, through the great flood. As we look at this chapter there are certain things that we notice about the flood that took place in the days of Noah. First of all, the flood is a historical fact. It is confirmed by archeologist.

1. Some theologians believe that the sons of God were the descendants of the godly line of Seth, who intermarried with the ungodly line of Cain and that there was no longer separation but an unholy mixture. What are the problems with this view?
a. How would marriage between ungodly and godly human beings produce a race of giants?
b. How would mere backsliding produce such enormous wickedness as necessitated the flood?
2. Some believe that these sons of God were demon spirits that actually took human lives and inhabited human bodies then married the daughters of men and from ...
