Angels that did not keep their original position but forsook their own proper dwelling place [God] has reserved with eternal bonds under dense darkness for the judgment of the great day.—Jude 6.
The inspired Scriptures tell us that sometime before the great Flood of Noah’s day, certain angels began to take an unusual interest in the women on earth. For a wrong purpose, “the [heavenly] sons of the true God began to notice the daughters of men, that they were good-looking,” states the Bible, “and they went taking wives for themselves, namely, all whom they chose.” These unions were unnatural, and they produced hybrid offspring known as Nephilim. (Gen. 6:2-4) The spirit creatures who thus disobeyed God joined in Satan’s rebellion against Jehovah. The destiny of the wicked angels is the same as that of the Devil—eternal annihilation. (Matt. 25:41; Rev. 20:10) Therefore, we need to stand firm and resist them. w07 3/15 2:4-6
