Can you help me by showing where anything I said wasn't biblical? I know it's not a traditional interpretation.
I read a book by KH when he was GS of the UPCI titled,
The Anointed Ones. He believed unclean spirits to be the disembodied spirits of those who lived in a Pre-Adamite earth prior to the destruction described in
Genesis 1:2 (Gap-Theory). This book was much help to me when I was studying these things. I felt confirmation in the Holy Ghost that he was right, these were disembodied spirits. However, the language of Genesis was stressed to allow for the Gap-Theory. The Holy Ghost because to lead me to find another place in Scripture where evil spirits were indeed released on a massive scale, not only that, the spirits were of demonic origin. This place in Scripture is
Genesis 6. I began to study Josephus and other ancient commentators regarding this passage. The interpretation from antiquity supports the notion of a very demonic series of events surrounding the time just before the great Flood.
While the ancient interpretation of
Genesis 6 regarding the Bene ha Elohim isn't popular in our highly rationalistic Western Society... it was the position from antiquity.
Jesus explained a lot about demon possession too. If you review his teachings you'll find that spirits "thirst", but it's not a physical thirst...they have unquenched desire. And after a spirit has roamed the dry places seeking rest (relief) for it's thirst, if it should return to a house finding it swept and clean, it will bring in seven additional spirits and the state of the man is worse than at the beginning. The Holy Ghost opened my eyes to what these things "thirst" for. Again, it has to do with their embodiment on earth. They were VERY evil beings. Now, without bodies unclean spirits seek to quench their thirst for sin by inhabiting a host. Hence... possession.
