The word for these hybrid children, often known as nephilim, (Genesis 6:4) is often mistranslated as a result of King James Bible to mean giants. The Hebrew word actually derives from the root naphal which means fallen. The Greek Septuagint (Greek translation of the Old Testament) translated it and called them gegenes which means earthborn and probably morphed into the English word giants.
The Bible goes on to say that these angels who did not keep their domain but abandoned their proper abode (the heavenlies), God has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day because they went after strange flesh (human). They are exhibited as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire (Jude 7). God did not spare these angels when they sinned but cast them into the earth and condemned them to the pits of darkness (Tartarus) reserved for judgment (2 Peter 2:4).
That is why God brought the Great Flood to wipe out all vestiges of the nephilim to preserve the coming pure bloodline of Jesus.
In the three days between His crucifixion and His physical resurrection from the dead, after He had died for all our sins, once and for all, for the just and the unjust, in order that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit, Christ also went to made a proclamation to these fallen angels now in prison who had been disobedient. He proclaimed His triumph over them and over hell, death, the grave and Satan (1 Peter 3:18-20).
When He has disarmed the rulers (these fallen angels), He made a public display of them having triumphed over them (Colossians 2:15). This is significant because He told His followers that just as was in these days of Noah (with fallen angels) so shall it be also when the Son of Man is revealed in His Second Coming (Luke 17:28-30). Today’s world is also full of the same sins of debauchery and depravity as it was in Noah’s time. So, look up because your redemption draws near (Luke 21:28).
Also, please never forget that “The demons (in my mind the ETs) also believe that God is one and tremble” (James 2:19).
"Whenever unclean spirits behold Christ they fall down" (Mark 3:11).
This is because there is hostility between God (Jesus) and demons that goes back to the Garden of Eden and the Fall of man.
“There shall be enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. For she shall bruise you on he head and you shall bruise him on the heel” (Genesis 3:15).
“The Son of God appeared so that He might disarm the works of the devil” (1 John 3:8).
“The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet [Genesis 3:15]” (Romans 16:20).
“Submit to God. Resist the Devil and He will flee from you” (James 4:7).
Call out the name of Jesus!
As I stated before in 1 Peter 3:18-20 and in Colossians 2:15, Jesus made a public display of His triumph over these fallen angels. Therefore, don’t you think that these demons and their cohorts feared and trembled when they saw Christ (James 2:19)? God highly exalted Christ and bestowed on Him the name which is above every other name; at the name of Jesus every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord of those on heaven, on earth and under the earth (these fallen angels in bondage) (Philippians 2:9-11).
Next time some demon or fallen angel extraterrestrial comes after you, call out the name
of Jesus Christ and they will flee (James 4:7).
