Is it possible that God created the dinosaurs after the Bible.

If we think that God is a superhero and can do whatever God wants to do then it is extremely possible and probable that god made the dinosaurs after the Bible..

God could have created the Earth, the Bible was written, god played with time which god can do, created the dinosaurs then added this as the first bit of time and then added the Bible time to the end of the dinosaurs time..

It's very possible when we think God as a superhero..

Great and fearsome lizards or dragons the dinos were called. The name dinosaur is only a 18-1900's name. Plenty of ref in the bible to these creatures and down thru history. Nearly all of them were vegetarian. And do not tell me about teeth. Look at a panda's teeth. 

Anyhow, somebody let the cat out of the bag a couple years ago. They found vegetation and some red blood cells in a dino discovery. Oops. So much for 65 million years. 

Read about Marco Polo's travels too. Some of the Chinese Emperors had 'dragons'. One pulled one the wagons of an Emperor it is reported.

There are still some sightings in the Belgian Congo. This is a swampy and mostly uninhabited area. It is 1/3 the size of the USA continent. Huge and quite inhospitable.

Not just possible, He did create them.

God is not a superhero.   God is our Sovereign Creator, Righteous Redeemer and Eternal Judge.   God created the earth in six days and that includes the dinosaurs.

You're very right indeed.

The Bible tells us that God created sea creatures on day 5 of creation, and land creatures on day 6 (including humans).

Almost every ancient cultural record (including the Bible) mentions the existence of large reptilian creatures - well before the modern discovery of dinosaurs in the 1800s.

Secular stories aside, there is a preponderance of evidence that humans observed living dinosaurs.

I don't think there is any objective reason to go beyond what the Bible tells us.

Carbon dating, millions of years old, the Bible doesn't account for that.

Maybe carbon dating is totally wrong but there is a conflict here with the Bible.

The idea that the earth is millions or billions of years old pre-dates carbon dating and modern science by at least 200 years.  So science is not where that idea came from.

All so-called "dating" techniques rely fundamentally on secular philosophical assumptions. "Millions of years old" is an unverifiable secular story. So neither of these can be considered objective.

Therefore the Bible doesn't have to "account" for them. And scripture certainly doesn't have to subject itself under the authority of secular ideas. We don't need to construct elaborate narratives to make the Bible fit a secular paradigm. Given the available facts, the Bible is an historically reliable resource.

Shalom,

It is written,

And GOD saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was Very Good... (Genesis 1:31)

It is also said,

All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:3)

So, the question is, who created dinosaurs?

The Answer to this question, we can find in the following Scripture,

And GOD said, Let Us make Man in Our Image, after Our Likeness: and let them have Dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the Earth. So GOD created Man in His Own Image, in the Image of GOD created He him; male and female created he them. And GOD blessed them, and GOD said unto them, Be Fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the Earth, and subdue it: and have Dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the Earth. (Genesis 1:26-28)

To be more exact, the key-Word here is Dominion.

Our sinfulness corrupted ourselves and all the world created by LORD GOD.

And unto Adam He said, ...cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee… In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. (Genesis 3:17-19)

Even so, the dinosaurs were nothing but some GOD-created peaceful animals distorted into ugly predatory monsters by our sins. It didn't and doesn't matter that the wildlife was and still is physically dangerous for men. We were and still are those of spiritual Dominion.

The above is taken from my book Q & A - Christian Communion in Questions & Answers, the article 289. If interested, it's here,

I'm not against carbon dating, but carbon dating of very old stuff is based upon the theory of a decay rate that is not the actual decay rate of things thousands of years old, science does not know how fast the thousand year old item was decaying at the time it was decaying back a thousand years ago, it's just assumptions. 

our sun effects the rate of carbon decay as well other things, it can speed up the process or slow it down. that is new science just recently found out,
