THEY WERE HERE BEFORE US AND PROBABLY MUCH, MUCH LONGER…
They lived here before we did…
Prior to the great flood… The earth was occupied by a race of Humans, which were nothing like us. The great flood was 4,359 years ago in the year 1656 AM or 2348 BC. Jesus was born almost 2000 years ago on what is now Christmas… In 4.5 billion years there have been many different races that lived on Earth a lot longer than our own 65 million year history. The Dinosaurs themselves, which are most recent, prior to us were here over 165 million years. 3 times as long as we have been…
The Nephilim were a race that came to dominate the pre-flood world, and are referred to in the Bible as the heroes of old, men of renown. They were reportedly the children born to the “Sons of God” by the “daughters of men”, and are described as giants. It is also most important to note that they are mentioned almost simultaneous to God’s statement that He would destroy the earth by flood, and it seems from this association that their effect upon mankind was one of the primary justifications that brought the destruction.

Then the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days will be a hundred and twenty years.” The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.
The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time. The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain. So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth….”
