Are demons and fallen angels the same thing?
(Spooky Howl)
Maaaybe.
Or maybe not.
Angels, demons, exorcisms
welcome to the Halloween edition of the BBQ.
So, Christian theologians usually use
fallen angels, demons, unclean spirits, evil spirits interchangeably
to refer to the same class of evil spirit.
But does the Bible always do that? Not necessarily.
The Bible does tend to speak of demons as those evil spirits
that try to inhabit people, or unclean spirits
but they're not called fallen angels.
Is it possible that fallen angel is a different class of supernatural being?
Jewish theologians do take this approach
and the Bible talks about fallen angels
and demons usually in different conversations
at different points.
Now in the book of Revelation, chapter 12
it talks about the war that broke out in Heaven
back before human history began.
It says that this war broke out in Heaven
and Micheal and his angels fought against the dragon
and the dragon and his angels fought back.
There's a group of angels on the side of the dragon.
but he was not strong enough
and they lost their place in Heaven.
Fallen. Angels.
The great dragon was hurled down
that ancient serpent called the Devil or Satan
who leads the whole world astray.
Satan clearly has angels
hurled out of Heaven. They are fallen.
Now if we go back to the first book of the Bible
in Genesis chapter six
we have a fascinating story that's hard to explain no matter what theory you come up with
Jewish theologians tie this in with their demonology
their understanding of what demons are.
Genesis chapter six verse one.
"When human beings began to increase in number
on the Earth and daughters were born to them
the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans
were beautiful and they married any of them that they chose.
Well, sons of God
could just mean godly men
and the daughters of humans could just mean women
and it could be poetic ways of referring to men and women.
But sons of God is also a phrase that on occasion
is used to refer to angels
as those that God has birthed into existence.
Sons of God. Is it possible?
Sons of God saw that daughters of humans, or daughters of men
were beautiful and they took the ones that they wanted
"Then the lord said," now his reaction is huge to this.
The lord said, YAHWEH says
"My spirit will not content with humans forever
for they are mortal, their days will be 120 years"
so he says they can't live forever, they need to die out
and then it jumps right next in verse four
into talking about the Nephilim.
The Nephilim, who are they?
It says "the Nephilim were on the Earth
in those days and also afterward
when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans
and had children by them.
The sons of God
having children with the daughters of humans
creates the Nephilim.
This kind of new race
it says "they were the heroes of old, men of renown."
In other words the Nephilim were some kind of
super-human race
produced by
the mating of the sons of God and the daughters of men
and if sons of God refers to angels
we're talking about a kind of
of horrific, supernatural
rape of
angels leaving their place and their abode
and coming down and somehow creating
progeny with human women
it's interesting what happens next
this is where the lord says this wickedness has gotten out of hand
I regret the whole creation project
I've got to destroy everything
and the flood is what happens next
Hm
The Nephilim
then would have been destroyed in the flood
and who are the Nephilim?
they are, according to this strand of theology
the combination of fallen angel and human.
If they were destroyed then their spirits would be
half human, half fallen angel.
According to Jewish theology, these spirits
of the now dead Nephilim are demons
and that's why demons always want to get into a human body
they have experienced life in a flesh and blood body
there's no record of a fallen angel trying to get inside, inhabit
and possess a human being
but a demon always wants to
and doesn't want to live outside a body
the spirits of the Nephilim
who are the children of the mating of fallen angels and humans
could explain what demons really are.
Are you tracking with this? It's wild!
Who knows. But kinda fun.
If this were true it would explain a couple of mysterious
passages in the new testament
let me refer to a couple of them
2 Peter and Jude.
In 2 Peter
chapter two verses four to six
and there's a cryptic passage, that many people just don't know what it's referring to
it says, "for God did not spare angels
when they sinned
but sent them into Tartarus."
Some translations say Hell here
I think it would be a bad translation
Gehenna is the proper word for Hell
Tartarus is a Greek word for prison
and it's used only here in the whole new testament as a special place
for the special class of angels
that sinned in some kind of special way
"when they sinned God sent them to Tartarus
putting them in chains of darkness
to be held for judgment"
and then it goes on actually to talk about the flood
Well, if we turn to Jude.
Verse four.
No, verse six. We read
"The angels who did not keep their positions of authority
but abandoned their proper dwelling
these he has kept in darkness
bound with everlasting chains for judgement on that great day."
Two cryptic passages in the new testament
talk about some class of dark angel
that is not roaming the world freely
but actually has been, they over-stepped
their bounds. God actually puts limits on the degree of evil
that Satan and his angels
can do and they sinned in such a way that God said
that must never happen again
and has taken that class of angel and has put them
in a special
dark spiritual prison
to hold them for final judgement
these may be the fallen angels that are the
the ancestors of the Nephilim
who are the spirits that become demons.
Or I could be wrong.
and if this isn't the explaination
well, you come up with a better one
of course it raises the issue
does all of this have any bearing on how we live our lives
following Jesus today?
but that's another question.

PARENT ALERT: Would You Use This To Control Your Kids Social Media? - Duration: 2:31.
[NADIA] If we told you there's a way you can spy on your children's every move on their phones would you take us up on it?
[KAYE] Because the reason that we say that we found
this app, but there's a few of them to be honest, this one's called Custodial
there's another one called Net Nanny and there's other ones so basically you can
load this onto your child's phone and as it says here you can read their texts
you can monitor all their calls you can find out where they are at all times you
can find out their activity as well
[NADIA] You can block contacts
[KAYE] you can see when they're on Facebook, when they're on Twitter, on all of the social networks
[NADIA LAUGHS]
[KAYE] You can see how long they're on
for it, if you want to block certain websites you can do that I mean for
instance we've loaded it onto my phone and I have put in the search title porno
it's not one that I regularly search and there you see it's blocked
[NADIA] What if you put in...
[KAYE] No don't start making me put in profane things... so anything I
put in that you have decided as my parent that is not acceptable will just
be blocked there are people that you just don't like the kid to associate
with you can block them as wel
[NADIA] Just cut them out..
[KAYE] So you're gonna do it
[NADIA] I won't be doing it with Maddie because she's 14 and I think that at this point
[KAYE] Because she's probably who one that needs it
[NADIA] Yeah, but I can't do it now
because the genie is out of the bottle. it would be a massive invasion of her
privacy. I have to trust her if she breaks my trust then I would do it
[KAYE] But how do you know...
[NADIA] I mean the only way I would know is if if I were to find out
[KAYE] Well this is ... this would tell you. I mean if you monitor everything that she's doing
[NADIA] No I won't do it with Maddie, but I'm going to do it with Kiki Bee
[KAYE] But that's not fair
[NADIA] No but I think this will happen
a lot. I don't know what you think because with the first generation of our
kids we were like we didn't really know what was happening with these phones so
we've lost complete control but I think a lot of people now with younger kids
coming up are going want more control and I'm going to do it with Kiki and Kiki won't
mind and then it will always be the norm. I won't be looking I won't be
looking at it all the time
[KAYE] Will you check texts and who she is speaking to?
[NADIA] No, no, but occasionally ... No
Do you know what you know what I'm not interested
[KAYE] When she's on her phone, you'll be
checking up everything
[NADIA] No. What about you
[KAYE] I'm not going to do it
[NADIA] There you go. Look see she berates me and then she goes no I'm not
going to do it. What are you going to do?

Market Decode: Why Should You Care About Emerging Markets? - Duration: 3:28.
Why Should You Care About Emerging Markets?
With Nick Giorgi, Investment Analyst, Chief Investment Office
Bank of America Global Wealth & Investment Management
Please see important information at the end of the program.
Filmed August 9, 2017 You've probably heard about "emerging markets"
over the years - maybe a news story about a debt or currency issue in one country, or
a political protest in another.
But when it comes to investing in them, your first thought might be, "Thanks, but I think
I'll wait 'til they're done emerging."
And why would I invest in places that are so far away?
That makes sense.
These countries do seem distant and unfamiliar - and as investors, we tend to like things
that feel familiar - like American companies.
It's known as "home-country bias" and it's a completely natural tendency.
But there can be advantages to moving a little outside your comfort zone and considering
something like emerging markets, also known as E-M's.
Here's what you need to know: There are around 23 or 24 of them, and they're
all over the map from China and India, to Peru and Hungary.
And they all are growing - fast.
In fact, as a group, emerging market countries are projected to grow more than twice as fast
as the U.S. both this year and next.
Their economies are also shifting away from basic industries like farming, logging and
mining, toward manufacturing - towards making things.
At the same time, billions of people who live in these countries are going from subsistence
wages to earning enough to be middle class.
They're moving from farms to cities, earning more money and buying more things from smart
phones and fridges, to cars and computers.
All of this spending and activity will also help the growth of service industries in these
countries and should help keep their economies humming and their companies thriving well
into the future.
And their stock markets should benefit from this growth too.
So what's the catch?
Well, there are risks.
Because emerging markets are still emerging, their economies, currencies and political
systems can be volatile-especially in the short term.
So it's important to take a longer-term view of at least 3 to 5 years when investing in
them.
Another thing: These countries aren't all created equal, and their economies can be
growing for vastly different reasons or prone to different risks.
Russia, for instance, might be particularly sensitive to oil prices, while Brazil may
have greater sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
You also don't want too much of your portfolio in emerging market investments.
We suggest anywhere from two to 10 percent, depending on how much risk keeps you up at
night.
Wondering how to get started?
There are of course index funds or exchange-traded funds "ETFs" that can give you broad exposure
to emerging markets with relatively low fees.
Another option is actively managed funds, which have higher fees but are overseen by
an experienced manager with specialized knowledge - someone who could recognize and react to
potential trouble spots and adjust their investments accordingly.
And you could consider investing in stocks of U.S. companies that have operations in
or do a lot of business with emerging markets and could be poised to capture some of that
potential growth.
Whatever approach you take, make sure you consider your overall investment goals and
your time horizon for getting there.
Thanks for tuning it, and keep your eye out for more videos in this series.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Investing involves risk including possible
loss of principal.
Asset allocation, rebalancing and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against
loss in declining markets.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Investing in Emerging Markets may involve greater risks than investing in more developed
countries.
In addition, concentration of investments in a single region may result in greater volatility.

5th Graders: Get ready for the T-2-4 Career Fair! - Duration: 3:08.
Hello 5th grader!
Or should I say, future pediatrician. Or engineer. Or firefighter.
Or state representative. It may feel too early to think about the world of work.
The world of work. But daydreaming about a career can give you great ideas, about
what you might want to do later in life. And you can change those dreams into
reality, by setting short-term goals now that one day will get you to your
ultimate goal. That's what T24 is all about.
Thinking and planning now for life after high school.
For life after high school.
Of course, you might have no idea what path is right for you.
That's OK too. Your school counselor has just the thing to get some
ideas flowing. All SPS fifth graders will be visiting a career fair in November
This video will tell you what to expect on this field trip and what's expected
of you. You and your classmates will take a bus to the spoke and Convention Center
downtown. It'll be crowded and loud and you'll be joining about 800 other fifth graders.
Don't stress. After getting off the bus and going up the
escalators, there will be a sign with your school's name where you will line up.
There will also be a lot of school counselors there to help.
You'll get a bag with some cool stuff in it including a pencil and a graphic organizer for
taking notes. There will be dozens of professionals just waiting to talk to
you about their work. After about 40 minutes there will be an announcement to
line up with your class at the back of the room to board your bus.
Follow the rules you normally would do at school. We're interacting with professionals, after all.
Keep your name tag on. Ask lots of questions.
Things like, what kind of education did you need for this work? Do you work outdoors?
Is this a job that depends on co-workers, or can I do it myself? Write down the answers on
your graphic organizer so you can write about a career when you get back to school.
If somebody else is asking questions you can listen closely so you
don't ask the same thing. Be polite! Say, "thank you for donating
your time to talk to me." Some presenters might have a little giveaway for kids.
But make sure you interact with the person instead of just whizzing by for more stuff.
Remember, you're there to collect knowledge not knickknacks.
Did we mention, stay with your grown-up? Or stay with your buddy. Very important.
When you get back to school you'll get an exit ticket from your teacher.
You'll write about a job that you learned about the career fair. It might be a job that
you'd like to do, but it might not use your notes from your graphic organizer
and write what you learned about a specific job or career.
Be sure to find out enough about a job that you can write a full paragraph with supporting evidence.
Do your best work. You can win a prize!
There's just one more thing. One more thing. Be ready to have some fun!
It's an exciting adventure to think about the future.
We're lucky to have so many community members
Willing to help you toward your dream.
