Angels and Women (1924)

28:19) leaves no room for a hope or a fear of his
existence under any conditions, anywhere, when the
final punishment for his course is administered, namely,
destruction. See THE HARP OF GOD, pages 36,

We read in Genesis 6:1, 2: "And it came to pass,
when men began to multiply on the face of the earth,
and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of
God saw the daughters of men that they were fair;
and they took them wives of all which they chose."
These deceitful beings, the cohorts of Satan, are
"the angels which kept not their first estate, but left
their own habitation, . . . giving themselves over
to fornication, and going after strange flesh." (Jude
6, 7) As a punishment for their evil conduct they
have been confined since the Flood within the atmosphere
of our earth "under darkness unto the judgment
of the great day. (Jude 6) It is these chains under
darkness" that necessitate spiritistic seances being held
in darkened rooms.
In Job 38:7 we read: "The morning stars [early
bright ones] sang together, and all the sons of God
shouted for joy." This passage refers to the situation
which existed at the time of the creation of the
world, before man was brought upon the scene, and
could by no possibility have reference to human beings.
We conclude, therefore, that in Genesis 6:1, 2 quoted
above the inspired writer calls attention to the fact that
"sons of God" (angels who assumed human form as
flesh-and-blood men) were joined in marriage with
women.
It is significant that the Scriptures never allude to
angels as assuming the form of women. It is even more
