In the swirl of apocalyptic speculation, data drops, and so-called “Great Awakenings,” an old heresy has returned—disguised in camo and draped in Scripture. It whispers that humanity is a hybrid experiment, that the Elohim were cosmic engineers, and that hidden knowledge—accessible only to the initiated—will set us free. This isn’t new. It’s just Gnosticism repackaged in the language of the alt-right, the Great Reset, and even some Christian prophecy circles.
You’ve heard it: talk of the Nephilim as reptilian overlords, of ancient astronaut theory cloaked in biblical terms, of remote viewers confirming “deep state” plans seeded by fallen entities. Figures like Cliff High and others, with their cryptic data-speak and faux-spiritual confidence, sound like prophets of old. But their gospel is not good news. Their story is not the Bible’s story. It’s a hijacking of Genesis.
Let’s be clear: the problem isn’t the terms. “Nephilim,” “Elohim,” “watchers”—these are all biblical categories. The problem is the paradigm. Instead of seeing the fall of Adam as the corruption of a divine image, they recast it as a genetic sabotage. Instead of viewing the flood as divine judgment on human rebellion and angelic overreach, they treat it as a lost war between competing alien bloodlines.
Instead of hope in the Seed of the Woman (Genesis 3:15), they offer anxiety about seed lines, DNA manipulations, and cryptic disclosures. Which should make us wonder about the seed of the woman as destination through the ‘Only One” under heaven and earth by which men are saved.
But Scripture tells a different story.
The story of Genesis is not about ancient astronauts. It is about the creation of Adam—ha’adam—who was formed from the dust and breathed into by the Spirit of God. It is about the descent into violence and idolatry, and God’s unrelenting commitment to preserve a righteous seed—not through genetic engineering, but through covenant. It is about the Second Adam, Messiah Yeshua, who enters this corrupted world not to tinker with our DNA but to redeem our hearts.
Yes, there were giants. Yes, the sons of God rebelled. But the Bible is not giving us a mythic backstory of alien rebellion—it’s revealing a moral and spiritual war over human destiny. It’s a story about inheritance, blessing, judgment, and ultimately reconciliation. The serpent’s lie in Eden was not “you’re a lizard hybrid”—it was “you can be like God without God.”
And that’s exactly what these theories peddle today.
The obsession with the Nephilim is a clever decoy. It turns believers into fear-driven researchers or sensationalists instead of covenantal witnesses. It replaces the gospel with Gnosticism, and turns Adam’s dignity into a cosmic accident. It’s no wonder the modern State of Israel, in its secular-nationalist framing, has no problem letting such theories proliferate. These stories create division, not covenant. They stir up spiritual confusion, not biblical clarity. And often, they subtly justify domination and hierarchy under the guise of “awakening.”
But the Bible cuts through the noise. It says: there is a Second Adam. He is the righteous seed, the faithful son, the restored image. He came not from the stars but from the line of David. He doesn’t offer secret knowledge—He is the knowledge of God made flesh.
So yes, there’s a war. But it’s not between alien bloodlines. It’s between covenantal faithfulness and covenantal rebellion. Between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent. Between Babel and Zion. The question isn’t whose DNA you have. It’s whose name is written on your forehead.
Let’s stop giving ear to the serpent’s stories dressed in pseudoscientific mysticism.
Let’s return to the garden, the promise, the covenant—and above all, to the Second Adam who makes all things new.
