100. Hell was prepared for Satan and his angels, not for mankind. But, if a person persists in serving satan then he will have to spend eternity with him
Watchers 10
7 And heal the earth which the angels have corrupted, and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may heal the plague, and that all the children of men may not perish through all the secret things that the 8 Watchers have disclosed and have taught their sons.
101. Obviously, the forbidden knowledge was too much for mankind to handle because we see here thatit would have caused man to perish.
a. very similar to today with the weapons of mass destruction and the technologies that we have today
b. all it takes is one miscommunication and one push of a button and it’s all over
Watchers 10
8 And the whole earth has been corrupted 9 through the works that were taught by Azazel: to him ascribe all sin.
102. Since all sin was ascribes to Azazel. Is this why the scapegoat was translated from his name ?
Watchers 10
9And to Gabriel said the Lord: Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates, and against the children of fornication: and destroy [the children of fornication and] the children of the Watchers from amongst men [and cause them to go forth]: send them one against the other that they may destroy each other in10 battle:
103. War ! Notice who is involved :
bastards - illegitimate children, a child born of parents that are not lawfully married to each other
reprobates - people without morals
children of fornication - children born to individuals not married to one another, meaning here that whom the father was would not be known
children of the watchers - these were the giants
103. Let’s focus on the reprobates for a moment.

103. Let’s focus on the reprobates for a moment.
104. God permitted them to give themselves over to sexual sins and similar perversions.
105. Vile affections means they were filled with perverted ideas and imaginations of lust.
a. referring to homosexuality, bestiality, group sex and so forth
106. Allow me to add a footnote to married couples who use their imaginations during times of intimacy.

107. The marriage bed is undefiled. Meaning, anything a married couple chooses to do conscientiously with / to each other as long as it does not involve other people or animals is ok with God.
a. bet ya’ didn’t know that one, did ya’
b. lets jump back
a. bet ya’ didn’t know that one, did ya’
b. lets jump back
108. This would be a reference to sodomy or homosexuality and bestiality.
109. Notice that both men and women weakened themselves by giving into lusts and unnatural perversions. So that they received in themselves the penalties of their wickedness.

110. Notice how a reprobate mind enters into a person’s life:
did not like to retain God in their knowledge - no matter what God said about it, it didn’t hinder them from doing whatever they wanted
to do those things which are not convenient- they did things that were not proper or naturalaccording to the laws of creation
did not like to retain God in their knowledge - no matter what God said about it, it didn’t hinder them from doing whatever they wanted

111. So a person with symptoms of a reprobate mind will display these characteristics.
112. Notice verse 32, even though they know it’s wrong, they do it because they like and want to.
113. This gives a deeper explanation of Genesis chapter six and why God decided to destroy man and all living creatures.

114. Back to Enoch
Watchers 10
10 for length of days shall they not have. And no request that they (i.e. their fathers) make of thee shall be granted unto their fathers on their behalf; for they hope to live an eternal life, and 11 that each one of them will live five hundred years.
115. God said that these bastards, reprobates, children of fornication and the children of the watchers would have a life expectancy of only 500 years instead of being eternal beings like their angelic fathers.
116. He also points out that the fathers of these would come begging for their children’s lives.
Watchers 10
11 And the Lord said unto Michael: Go, bind Semjaza and his associates who have united themselves with women so as to have defiled themselves 12 with them in all their uncleanness. And when their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth, till the day of their judgement and of their consummation, till the judgement that is 13 for ever and ever is consummated. In those days they shall be led off to the abyss of fire: and 14 to the torment and the prison in which they shall be confined for ever.
117. How powerful. There are several things to cover here:
when their sons have slain one another - when the sons of the angels, the giants have killed one another off
- this alludes that there must have been “ giant wars “
- we also see that there were no female giants born since only sons are mentioned, which would explain the introduction of homosexuality and bestiality
they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones - part of the fate of these angelic rebels was to be a witness to their children’s death
bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth - these rebel angels were bound for 3500 years in different valleys of the earth
- is that how long it took for the “ giant wars “ to be over with
- were the fathers buried in the valleys so that the bllod of their children would be funneled on top of them
- after the 3500 years, were these rebel angels released, and if they were, does this explain why there were giants before and after the flood
in those days they shall be led off to the abyss of fire - those days refers to judgment day
to the torment and the prison in which they shall be confined for everthey, like all sinners will be in torment when they are thrust into the lake of fire
- did you ever stop to think that the lake of fire is the one lake people can’t drown in
Watchers 10
14 And whosoever shall be condemned and destroyed will from thenceforth be bound together with them to the end of all 15 generations. And destroy all the spirits of the reprobate and the children of the Watchers, because16 they have wronged mankind. Destroy all wrong from the face of the earth and let every evil work come to an end:
118. The archangel Michael was also commissioned to destroy the spirits of the reprobates and the children of the watchers. Why “
a. because they have wronged mankind
119. Michael was also commissioned to destroy all wrong from the face of the earth.
Watchers 10
16 and let the plant of righteousness and truth appear: and it shall prove a blessing; the works of righteousness and truth shall be planted in truth and joy for evermore.17 And then shall all the righteous escape, And shall live till they beget thousands of children, And all the days of their youth and their old age Shall they complete in peace.18 And then shall the whole earth be tilled in righteousness, and shall all be planted with trees and19 be full of blessing. And all desirable trees shall be planted on it, and they shall plant vines on it: and the vine which they plant thereon shall yield wine in abundance, and as for all the seed which is sown thereon each measure (of it) shall bear a thousand, and each measure of olives shall yield 20 ten presses of oil.
120. Speculation time:
- is this plant and the trees a reference to the garden that was eastward of Eden
- if so, was this the original purpose for God’s garden
