I use the Westminster Leningrad Codex for my OT Hebraic translation/transliteration,
The Textus Receptus for the NT Greek translat/translit,
The strongs concordance for defintions,
and a KJV/AV and CLV side by side for comparison,
I think this is the most effective way to study the true Word of God.
I bet the ones that watch over me don't turn away, because I'm so attractive.

No, they are to turn away when this is done. (To prevent them from getting curious)
Non-english speaking peoples are in trouble, because they don't have bibles translated from the Textus Receptus, as far as I can remember. I know a missionary who lost sponsorship from a church because he didn't use a KJV bible. The problem was that he was in Mexico, and there were no Bibles translated from the TR.

I only use TR. Because I only consider TR-based bibles the Word of God.
Since angels are messengers, were they created after man? Because if they were created before man, who were they messengers to? Next, the bible says god created Adam and Eve. Were all those angels created to be messengers for them up until the fall?

Just going by what the bible said.

I would hardly call the Nephilim "heroes of reknown".
Again, explain how their dna was compatible to human dna to create offspring. And, were there only male Nephilim? No females? Why is that?

They destroyed entire armies of men and then fed on them like food and drank their blood. Why go through artificial insemination when it would be more pleasureable to just have sex with them? They took wives from the daughters of men.

No they didn't.

Also, from what I understand the earliest bibles didn't contain Mark 16:9-20, they were added later. Is that not right, and if not can you provide a reliable source for me to look into it?

I suppose it's not possible that Irenaues added the verses himself?

Irenaeus quotes from them in his commentary on Mark in 177 AD, Hyppoleteus quotes from them as well in the first part of the 3rd century AD.
Either:
A: Both these men were Clairvoyants.
B: The Gnostics expurgated them from the text at Alexandria.
The answer is pretty obvious don't you think?
Could you address this?

Finally, it appears god does allow changes to be made to the bible. If he allowed it back then, how do you know the very first copies didn't contain changes, and then changes from those copies, and so on?
Are they messengers or not? Did their job description change at some point?

The sons of God sang for joy at creation. And God is omniscient remember, He knew all this would be. But we're getting off the point now, let's turn this back to Genesis 6.

We know god allows changes to be made, because it has happened. Now, before these things were written down, they were orally passed down. How do you know embellishments weren't added, stories weren't changed, etc.? Again, god allows these things as can be proven, if he is indeed real. So, how do you know these stories are accurate from the very beginning?
