In the time of Abraham we know that many of the surrounding peoples practised human sacrifice. For when Yaweh told Abraham to take his son Isaac up to Mount Moriah, and offer him there as a sacrifice, one of the reasons why Abraham did not hesitate to do so was because he was very aware that human sacrifices were the norm in the areas surrounding him. This was the place where the Messiah was eventually sacrificed two thousand years later. And, as Abraham had been prevented from killing his son and a lamb was substituted for the sacrifice, on Calvary, the Messiah, the Lamb of God, was provided as the ultimate sacrifice for mankind.
In Egypt, however, according to my erstwhile guide, human sacrifices had never been offered to the gods. I presume that the guide did not want anything to reflect badly on Egypt or its culture. But the pictures and engravings tell a different story. In the Valley of the Kings, for instance, there is a relief depicting a line of prisoners, many with their heads chopped off and blood spurting freely in all directions. In another relief, a captive kneels before one of the pharaohs. His hands are tied behind his back and the king, his arm aloft with weapon in hand, is poised to strike. Behind the captive, one of the gods looks on approvingly, a wry smile on his lips. When I quizzed my guide on the meaning of this relief, he replied that it was “symbolic.”
A section of the Narmer Palette, dating to circa 3200 BC, showing the pharaoh of the same name making a votive or gift offering to his “father”, the god Amun-Ra. The palette, which is decorated on both sides, was at one time displayed in the Temple of Horus at Nekhen (Cairo Museum).
On the huge wall beside the entrance to the mighty temple at Edfu there is a relief of
Horus
with five Nubian captives in his left hand, his right arm held aloft ready to slay the poor wretches.
Narmer
, reputed to be the first of the kings of Egypt, lived in the pre-dynastic period of 3,000 BC or before. He is reputed to have been a “knocker of heads” (see
Figure 12
). In a much later period, probably circa 1200 or 1300 BC, we see another pharaoh receiving offerings from his subjects (see
Figure 13
). But we should look more closely at these two figures, separated by almost 2,000 years. The first, Narmer, is around the time of the gods of Greece and Rome, the era of the Titans, who were huge superhuman beings of great size and strength (hence the ship,
Titanic
). Some 2,000 years later, in the days of Rameses II, we had the “war of the land” between Joshua and the “giants” who inhabited the entire area of Canaan. If we look at the size of both Narmer and this second pharaoh, compared to the other men, we can see that they are at least twice as big. Look also at the size difference in

This is the case in scores of ancient Egyptian paintings and sculptures. Invariably, the gods or the pharaohs are huge compared to the ordinary people around them. This holds true for many of the pictures of ordinary scenes in religious rituals, or scenes of hunting or of war. Of course, it will be said that this was to indicate that the kings and gods were superior to the mere mortals depicted in the same scenes. Academics will scorn any idea that perhaps these gods and their offspring were actually at least twice the size of ordinary men. As in the case of Goliath, who was 13½ feet tall, and Og, the king of Bashan, whose bed was 18½ feet long and more than 9 feet wide (see
Figure 5
), these pictures, if taken at face value, also put Narmer and the second pharaoh at around the same height (i.e. 13 to 15 feet tall).

Is it not improbable to suppose that these gods and rulers, who masterminded and built with immaculate detail the temples and pyramids of Egypt, were totally inaccurate in depicting their own size and height? No, for those with eyes to see it is obvious that, just as the Titans of old were great in stature and strength, so too their counterparts, the
Nephilim
of Egypt and their descendants, were monsters and giants of men. This huge size advantage enabled them to enslave ordinary people and lord it over them so that the gods and kings were in complete control. This holds true at every site where these extraordinary temples and pyramids are found around the globe. If it were not so, and the
Nephilim
and their offspring were the same as ordinary mortals, then they would have been quickly defeated and eliminated and we would have no records or monuments testifying to their existence.

Immense physical strength was obviously an attribute of these supermen. But they had more than just physical strength at their disposal in the construction of buildings, some of which contain huge stone blocks which were set in place at great heights. At one such site at Sacsayhuaman in the Andes, one stone is estimated to be 355 tons in weight and is situated at a height of 8½ metres.

Consider also the 2.3 to 2.5 million blocks of the Great Pyramid and the cutting and placing of these to provide for the various chambers and passageways therein. The sheer scope and magnitude of this structure almost defies logic and today there is no way such a feat could be replicated. So how did the builders accomplish these mighty tasks and do so with such mathematical accuracy?

So how did the builders accomplish these mighty tasks and do so with such mathematical accuracy?
This enigma we shall endeavour to answer now.
The legends of Viracocha and the myths of the Andes tell of the white-skinned god and his compatriots, described as “the messengers, the shining ones,” who arrived in primordial times and were responsible for building the great temples by means of magic. Viracocha was said to have created giant men from the heavens to build the temples.

But then he drowned them all and overran the world with water. (Sound familiar?) The Incas also believed that they were exiled from the world above and strove to return to their former abode.
59
It is because of their spiritual connections that the gods of yore could accomplish such enormous physical feats. To demonstrate some of these strengths, we return to the Scriptures. First to a passage already cited concerning a man possessed with a “legion” of demons:

They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an evil spirit came from the tombs to meet him. This man lived in the tombs and no one could bind him any more, not even with a chain. For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him.
Gospel of Mark 5:1-4
This is an example of spirit power on the negative side. For here we have a man who in normal circumstances would in no way be able to “tear apart” chains and break irons off his feet. What enabled him to accomplish this feat of strength was the spiritual power with which he had been imbued. In other words, it was the demonic spirit power working through him which tore the chains apart and broke the irons off his feet. These were the same spiritual powers as were used by the
Nephilim
, the Titans etc.

Next we have the story of the seven sons of a chief of the priests. The background to this is that the apostle Paul was healing many people and exorcising demons as he preached among the Gentiles. Then a few impostors decided to try their hand at it:
Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon themselves to call over them which had evil spirits in the name of the Lord Jesus, saying: “We adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preaches.”
And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
And the evil spirit answered and said: “Jesus I know and Paul I know; but who are you?”
And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of the house naked and wounded.
Book of Acts 19:13-16
This seems quite humorous on one level. But the point is that one man here possessed with an evil spirit was stronger than seven others.
In Luke 4 we have one of the records of the temptations of the Messiah. And in verse 5 we read:
Again the devil led him up to a high place and showed him, in an instant, all the kingdoms of the world.
I confess that I do not understand exactly what occurred here. But it remains that the devil was able to show the Messiah all the kingdoms of the world “in an instant.” Spiritual power was surely involved in this and it is another example of the resources available in the spirit realm.
Exodus chapter 7 provides another example of the negative spiritual power available to the demonic world:
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the Lord commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake.
Pharaoh then summoned the wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts.
Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs.
Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them...
Book of Exodus 7:10-13
This is a perfect example of the power of both good and evil. Also, this scene is set in Egypt before the Exodus circa 1490 BC. It is interesting to note that the magicians and sorcerers caused their staffs to change into snakes by using their “secret arts.” What makes this noteworthy is that only very sketchy information exists about the people who built many of the great monuments around the world. They seem to have consciously covered their tracks and hidden their intentions. The Druids, for instance, left no written texts and passed their traditions orally and in secret. (Blood sacrifices were also part of their mystical rituals.)
The activities of these sects were invariably shrouded in mystery. So, too, with the black, secret arts of the sorcerers of the pharaohs. Only those who were initiates were allowed access to the deeper, clandestine rites of the inner cabal.
So when we ponder how these gods of old fashioned and assembled these gigantic stones in the monuments they built, we must remember that we are dealing with beings who had great spiritual power at their disposal.
Not only were the Titans and other
Nephilim
great in physical stature and strength, but the infusion of spiritual power available to them empowered them to even mightier feats. And their leader was the most exalted spirit being of all when first created. Remember how he is described in Ezekiel:

You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty . . .
Your settings and mountings were made of gold. On the day you were created they were prepared.
You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God: you walked among the fiery stones.
You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.
Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendour.
