Aliens in the Bible?

Daleksteve said:

Yes. And some of these creations would have been out travelling among the stars even before God put Adam and eve in the Garden.

Based on what?

If they can come and visit our world during bible times, which they did then are considerably more advanced than us, unless you think god created them with that level of technology.

No proof these are aliens from another planet. More likely heavenly host created by God such as angels and cherubim etc.

You till have not grasped it have you.

There are two types of Aliens physical ones and inter-dimesional ones. Both types appear in the bible. Angels are the inter-dimensional ones, so are demons.

If you refer to “chariots of fire” no evidence these come from other planets. If this is not whar you are talking about please point out the scripture.

Of course they come from other planets otherwise you basically saying heavenly beings aka Angels need to fly from place to place in chariots and machines. i can't accept that. It's a dumb idea.

Careful about throwing around the word "dumb".

Understand that every time God reveals Himself, He does so in ways that make sense to the people He is revealing Himself to. So you get chariots and mobile thrones and angels with eyes all over them and wings, because all of those things mean something to the people they were revealed to. If God were to reveal Himself today it would probably be on some grand podium with an angelic band playing songs of praise (or maybe "hail to the chief" lol), not on some mobile throne... the throne is a symbol of His position and authority to the people of Ezekiel and Isaiah's day.

Does that make sense?

I don't know about aliens in the bible but if I ever saw any of the beasts described in Revelations I'd pass right out.

Nephilim.

They are often identified with the Anakim of Numbers 13:33 and the Rephaim of Deut. 2:20

In the context of this discussion I would define “alien” as not of this world. Nephilim, Anakim, and Rephaim were born on this earth, even though originally the giant clans began through supernatural circumstances.

Although born on earth they are alien/human hybrids. The fallen angels that came down and had sex with human women were Aliens, that makes their off spring hybrids.

The Nephelim are not angels nor aliens -- the Bible says the people before the flood lived a very long time - they were also slightly taller than we are.

Jesus said that Angels do not have the biology to form families and procreate - He is their creator - He knows what He is talking about.

But I do like the OP!

!

That's because they were half human alien hybrids. Its why God wiped them out in the flood, they were not pure (as in DNA) humans as Adam and eve were in the garden.

Yes he did, but these so called fallen angels were space men, not angelic beings.

huh?? "spacemen"?

 

[LoveofTruth]

They are not here yet, and those of us caught up in the Rapture do not need to lose any sleep about them.

Evil (sin) is here already, in each person: the sinful nature. Those capable of sin are capable of horrendous acts. The Holy Spirit earnestly strives to prevent those.

Post trib seems to be the scriptural answer nor pre trip

but thats a long talk also

You know, there's a far more likely explanation for supposed alien sightings: they're made up.

Pretty much by definition human beings don't fit the description of "aliens" unless the term is being used in the more traditional sense of describing a foreigner or a stranger.

Suggestions that there were space men is far more plausible than angelic beings with magical powers.

That's the problem with some christian's, they can believe in weird supernatural events written in a two thousand year old book but can't accept the existence of Alien life or the fact there were active during bible times.

hold on - hold on.

You are talking to someone who knows about both.

I am not rejecting either one - I am pointing out that the Bible talks about Angels not about spacemen when it comes to what it calls Angels -- to seraphim and cherubim. So then Gabriel, Lucifer etc they are Angels.

And Genesis 6 is not talking about Angels or spacemen -- either one.

You might find "aliens" that are not limited to "just angels" ini places like Job 1 and Job 2 and Daniel 7 and Daniel 5 - and of course Hebrews 1 and Hebrews 11 where "worlds" are made by God - not just this one "world".

The same can be said for both the bible and supernatural beings with magical powers.

Hi Bob,

The issue i have is that it would be easy for spacemen to pass themselves of as Angel's or deities. I do believe the people at the time really thought they were angels but we cannot rule out spacemen with some seriously advanced technology simply passing themselves off as something they are not.

In fact any encounter with Aliens if it happened during bible times would have been seen as a supernatural event by the people at the time and thus recorded at such.

Christians don't believe in beings with magical powers . Magic is a term not used for such heavenly beings .

Angels are messengers from heaven. Heaven is in space and beyond, so the expression space men can be identical in some ways with angels from heaven . We know there is life in the heavens and such beings are recorded in scripture angels are one of those life forms . They appear like men and we see other beings with wings etc . They would be alien to this world in some sense , mankind is made from the dust of the ground but angels are not of this world .

The spiritual world is also a real world but different than ours spiritual beings. May be considered by some as alien or foreign to our world or from space ( heaven)

Sometimes it's a matter of terms and how you understand them
But these frog like creatures are evil and they are spirits of Devils

Spiritual beings have been able to manifest the self physically at times

The similarity to a frog like , big eyed thin creature is obvious . John didn't say they were frogs but frog like or like frogs . Frogs have those big eyes slimy skin smooth thin arms and legs

There is a great deal of mystery about principalities and powers in high places and spiritual realms and angels etc but they do exist and many may use other terms to define them

Angels could be seen as men by sine or beings of light that flash to and fro that are perfect interdimensional beings etc some may go as far to call them aliens . But what does alien mean in this context? Simply that they are alien to this world. Somehow people think by calling angels aliens or Devils that it disqualifies the biblical spiritual beings and pushes them into a past old fashioned idea. This is not true
