ALIENS and the BIBLE – Are We Alone?
PatriotandLiberty ^ | 8/23 | Ring them Bells

Posted on 08/07/2023 9:11:15 AM PDT by spirited irish

Our Government says they have answers. As Christians we now need to have a biblically based response. Are Aliens in the Bible? We have designed this video to help give language to this tough topic. This video is dedicated to the late Dr. Michael Heiser – @DRMSH He used his scholarly platform to form a UFO mission Field. Along with caring about sharing the good news with this normally avoided group, Heiser also brought scholarly credibility to the question of… ARE WE ALONE? Tim Mackie makes a couple appearances along with NT Wright

Anyone who was around in the 1970's will remember this. It was all the rage:

I don’t recall God creating life anywhere else but here-—In the Bible.

And neither does the Bible say this is the only place God created life. So basically Christians don't have to win an argument for or against the presence of extra terrestrial life.

But what about atheists? When arguing against Christians, the atheists have been loud for many years with their Copernican Principle. It's their belief that there's nothing special about Earth or our solar system or our galaxy that random chance couldn't create, because a seemingly endless universe would by chance have other systems with properties set juuuusssst right for advanced life. Basically, believing we got here by random chance implies random chance creating ET's elsewhere too.

So the further we see in space without seeing alien life or systems that could support alien life, the more our part of the universe seems especially created.

There are a lot of things that aren’t addressed in the Bible. It is concerned with Humanity.

I watched the first saturn V launch.

and I still have doubts about the moon landing.

Not that I think the Govt would ever lie about anything.

Seriously we can not do it today, but 55 years ago it was no big deal, but then we somehow lost all the technology.

Nasa has spent many billions in the last 50 years abd all we have is the SLS boondogle which probably will never fly.

One of the worlds leading Rocket Scientists told me on his deathbed that the SLS was a P.O.S and there were no Aliens at area 51 or anywhere else on earth, and he would have known.

So, the Aliens finally land. And they go to speak with the Pope:

Pope: “Do you know Jesus?”

Alien: “Oh, Jesus. Great guy. He comes to our planet twice every year.”

Pope: “Every year?! It’s about two millennia and we’re still waiting for his second coming.”

Alien: “Maybe he didn’t like your chocolate.”

Pope: “Chocolate?”

Alien: “Every time he visits, we gather the best chocolate from each manufacturing plant and give them to him before he leaves. Why, what did you do the first time he came here?”

I haven’t read anything that says he only created life on Earth. The bible tells us he created the heavens and the Earth, but couldn’t He create more than one out of the hundreds of trillions of systems out there? As a scientist, I have to think that there is life out there somewhere. Is it intelligent? Don’t know. Is it plant-based life? I don’t know. Given the distances involved, I don’t think we’ll ever know the truth. I guess the bottom line is I’ll keep an open mind and...I’ll believe it when I see it (aliens).

Humans nor Aliens could get through the Van Allen Belts. Demons can

And yet, humans have.

If God’s plan was to just test people on Earth there would be no need for a universe hundreds of billions of light years from end to end. Just saying.

Why does everyone expect ETs to not have a monotheistic god and creation story. My guess is they will. Heck they may come here and convert or try to convert. Any advanced entity will know the disease vector dangers will go both ways. Heck The common cold/flu or pollen could be fatal to them. Knowing our society the may have some bizarre STD that some humans will catch 48 hours after landing.

Demons or dimensional beings are really the only 2 options but long shot could be distant with some wormhole tech but that’s low probability.

They exist. They don’t come from another planet. They are embodied demons. They travel interdimentionally. They can mess with you, but can only hurt you if you allow it.

I am no big historian by any means, but, many secrets of humanity were destroyed by Caesar in the burning of Alexandria and no I do not believe the fire was an accident. The Egyptians had a lot of knowledge and that was a threat to the Roman empire and all this happened just a few years before Christ appeared on the scene, another threat to Caesar and we all know how he dealt with that. Let me say this, before all this happened there was Greek mythology, Roman mythology, and mythology from India and greater Asia and the old testament and at that time were pretty much equal in popularity.One was just as believable as the other but many truths were destroyed when Alexandria burnt because Caesar just couldn’t let that knowledge get out, that was a great threat to him.

Bait thread? Trap to prove my observations about common courtesy wrong?

Too bad it is not in the chat forum for open discussion and no reservations.

Ephesians 6:12 "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."

Hard to argue that satan does perform wicked acts regarding the weather. Is it such a stretch that aliens are another manifestation of the fear and chaos he pours out on mankind? I think not. You are right,my friend. Demons can!

To: Tell It Right

The “heavens” in the Bible refers to the universe and “Earth” is specifically stated to have the life that he created. Period! No other mention of life anywhere else...To say it’s not in the Bible is the oldest lie as that can open up the door for anything. You could state that God never created “Pluto”-—but it’s clear he created the universe.

Genesis 1—
“The Beginning
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.”

I didn't say that the Bible is silent on God creating the universe. I said that the Bible is silent on whether or not He created advanced life elsewhere.

Basically, Bible believers (including you and me) don't have to win an argument for or against the presence of aliens. Let the atheists be the ones that have to win the argument (since their Copernican Principle demands the presence of advanced life elsewhere).
