Giants Found in Greece

I thought this was really cool, how scientists keep finding proof of biblical stories!

Remember the old testament story of how the Israelites were afraid because of the GIANTS in the land of Canaan.

Numbers 13:33 - "There we saw the GIANTS (the descendants of Anak came from the GIANTS); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."

Subject: Nephilim Bones Found: Giants of the Bible

Nephilim are the giants spoken of in biblical times by Enoch, and the giant David fought against (Goliath).

Gen 6:4
There were giants on earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bear children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

Num 13:33
And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

Just to show that the Bible is true with history lessons that is applicable both then and today and it is not just a spiritual book only. So if He says that we must be born again to have eternal life and that He is coming again, it means just that.

Proof of the existence of Nephilim. ( Greece )

This is amazing. Not that the scriptures haven't already proven true, but now more evidence for our times
