Why not? What does it matter? Hello, You might want to go back and read in post #69 of this same thread as I address this in that post. Be sure to read the post in it's entirity as I am also talking with someone else within the process of that post. There is also scripture given as well in reference to "terrestrial" and "celesstial" beings. Openly Curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But doesn't it seem kind of arrogant of us to think that of all the planets and all the solar systems in the universe, God chose just one to give life to? Hello Giaour, I don't think it's arrogant at all to believe in the Genesis account of creation as being all there is here within the world we live in at all. I think just the exact opposite that it is arrogant of the human race to take the theories of the scientist over the biblical account of creation given to us in Genesis chapter 1. For it is the scientists theory that there are other solar systems in the universe and other suns I on the other hand believe there is only one sun and one solar system within the world God created for mankind to live and dwell in. You might want to go back and read post #69 in it's entirety as I went into depth while talking with the person in that post using scriptures pertaining to "terrestrial" and "celesstial" beings. It is a lenghty post. Either way it will be some good food for thought on the subject. God Bless You Richly Openly Curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't God have created life on other planets when He "created the heavens"? Couldn't that encompass other life forms? I don't know, I stated that already. It just seems plausable in regards to the enormity of the universe. Seems like we think the universe centers around us, that just seemed arrogant to me. I really have no idea. I'm reading everyone's responses though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The planets are the lights God put in the firmament on the 4th day of creation and they were not created and put in the sky for the purpose of other life forms. They were created and put up in the sky for signs, days, seasons and years they were created for that purpose only and they have been faithfully rotating around this earth since the beginning of time regulating the times and seasons. The sun and moon and stars were also created on that same day for the purposes God so stated about them in genesis chapter one. God has told us in his word what he put up in the heavens when he created them in the beginning and has given to us what each of his creations were and what their purpose was that they were to do and fullfil. And the universe in which is God's handiwork as recorded in the book of psalms is enormous as you've stated for sure. All of God's creation is evidence to us of our creator as we ourselves were created for His purpose.

Guest NewPilgrim Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 All the world love signs and wonders and thats exactly what the enemy is giving us. Anything to detract or distract from the salvation we have in Christ. The only reason to believe there is life outside of earth is if we want to integrate the unbelieving machinations of the scientific community at large. Why SHOULDNT God create the universe and put mankind at the centre of it under Christ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even understand what the song means! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me that the singer of the song understands that angels are watching over him/her and asks them all to sing over him as the night becomes history. I don't understand what the singing accomplishes unless it is a prayer song...... that sometimes happens to me when I am praying.... it all comes together in a simple melody or opens up into tongues.

The battle is being waged right here on earth. Since satan lives here, wouldn't that mean that evil is contained here as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
