What if the strangest passage in Genesis is a map for reading the moment we’re living through right now? We open Genesis 6 and follow the thread from “the sons of God” and the Nephilim to Jesus’ startling warning that the days before his return will mirror the days of Noah. Not to stir sensationalism, but to name the deep currents—unchecked desire, spiritual rebellion, and cultural numbness—and to remind ourselves that judgment in Scripture is never just an ending. It’s the limit God draws so grace can rescue what would otherwise be lost.
We dig into the language and history behind bene elohim, why early Jewish and Christian readers saw fallen angels in view, and why alternate readings don’t explain the scale of violence and corruption. From there, we move to the hard pastoral questions people actually ask: Can Christians be possessed? What opens the door to spiritual bondage? Where do addiction, occult curiosity, and chronic patterns of sin fit in a biblical view of evil? The answers are plain and practical. Believers can be harassed but not indwelt by darkness. Unbelievers can invite oppression through repeated consent. Yet none of that has the final word.
Again and again we return to hope. Jesus cast out demons with authority, restored dignity, and announced freedom to captives. That same gospel breaks chains today. Prayer is not a weak substitute for action; it is decisive action, the kind that moves what arguments and strategies cannot. If someone you love feels unreachable, take courage—persevering prayer and a clear, simple gospel have toppled stronger strongholds than the one you’re facing. Stay with us as we connect Scripture’s hardest questions to the most urgent needs in our homes and cities, and leave with a steady conviction: Jesus is stronger.
