What God can do
Gina:
--- Quote ---Colossians 2:15
King James Version (KJV)15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
That would be great.... no more abusive powers that controls the people with fear...

Amen to that! Denise - you're rockin the house. You go girl!

Denise -
Quite an interesting read that you presented! I like it! :) Yes Denise, what you have commented on makes sense to me. And I get it!
With all of those verses we have shared; there is so much to comment on and all kinds of tangents we could explore :P but I will just say a couple of things. Personally I don't usually dwell or think too much upon the "evil dominions". Since I believe that I am filled with the Holy Spirit... there is absolutely no room for any other spirit other than God's spirit in my being. But then again, I know for sure that God allows evil spirits to control others to "attack" or influence me according to His will. Sometimes as a test and sometimes for my "growth". But, I have put on the whole armor of God! :) I certainly don't ask for evil influences, but I am always ready for it!!
You stated:
The bible seems to be focused and centered on Earth only. I would definitely love to get a bible on the rest of the universe, or rather what God says about universes out there... All in due time, right? scriptures already say there are dominions in heavens and earth.. I wouldn't be surprised if there are more planets out there teeming with life, as well.
Yeah, me too... or let's say I would like to believe it. ???
Thanks for sharing the videos and I will share one with you that you can dream about before you go to sleep some night!
Concentrate on what the narrator has to say about the 1/84th fraction of your little fingernail as to the image size that the Hubble telescope took and all the galaxies that fit into that space. It just leaves me stupefied. I don't know what other word to use.

I'll pray for you in your studies for the profession of your choosing..... and I'll talk to you again sometime! Nice meeting you!

Please. My nerves.
I hate to break up the party, but God is not playing mind games with us.
God's not withholding or hiding anything from us in outter space.
What you all are saying smacks directly of Satan in the garden and how he put Eve's eyes on the tree of knowledge. Don't you remember how she was fine with the Tree of Life? Then, Satan came along and convinced her there was something better, juicier to be gotten because the Tree of Life wasn't going to satisfy her, and that God was withholding something from her?
Atheists are fascinated by the thought that aliens are out there. See, they know there is something beyond them, but their pride keeps them from accepting God's ways, and so they would rather foolishly believe there are "beings" just waiting for the right time to visit us.
They're here.
They're here now.
They go by the name demons and Satan--who transforms himself into an angel of "light."
Satan's STILL a liar. But whatever.
Whoops! Did I just say that out loud?!

From Why Does God Love You:
God did not create some kind of creature with higher intelligence than the plants and animals so that He could communicate with them. Humans are not just some kind of play things for God. God did not create some kind of aliens when He made us. We are the extension of His family, His kinfolk. We are God's CHILDREN -- we are the expansion of God's RACE!
From: Dates to remember:
Somebody has been asking me, in the last few months, about aliens and spaceships and all this stuff. I said there is no such thing as a spaceship. Something made out of material like aluminum, shaped like a saucer that is going to fly here from an alien galaxy someplace? Why? It’s too far, it would take thousands of years. It’s many years to the closest stars, but our closest stars are not known to have any planets. So then you would have to find a star out there that has planets. But you’re too far away, you can’t make it in a spaceship. So that is the end of the aliens, finished, no such thing.

Dear Azza:
The statement is based on science/astronomy, and the Scriptures.
Jesus died for the sins of the "world," not the sins of the "universe."
Eve is the "mother of all living," etc., etc., etc.
I should think that all people know that interstellar space travel is
physically impossible. Even traveling at millions of miles an hour,
there are very few places that one could go in less than a thousand years!
Everything is TOO FAR AWAY.
God be with you,
Ray

Gina... I thought about that right after I posted my post to Doug LOL..I wanted to add that there are spiritual, there are physical, there are heavenly beings, there are physical beings. The bible does not deny there are super natural beings, such as different types of angels, and of course God. There's spiritual beings, there's physical beings right? Both of them exist. Both of them are aware of their own existence. yet many physical beings do not believe in spiritual beings however and even though they do exist.
Just because we don't see them yet doesn't mean they are not there. same goes with the other worlds. Just because we don't see them, doesn't mean they are not there.I think the bible is more focused on mankind.
Technically, those spiritual beings are "Aliens" which means, foreign to us...That is why many of us get into shock mode when we see one because it is not in our "norm" to see them. all the leaders of the bible did LOL They are all living beings aware of their consciousness. whether they are really spiritual or physical, they say they are not of this world, while we are. I know there's a spiritual application to that as well. The bible says they will reveal themselves when the time is right. What if they are an advanced beings that already learned all of these and more... ability to heal, ability to resurrect from dead, has ability to teleport, has ability to destroy physical cities, can read minds and so on. Jesus said we can do what Jesus did if we believed in it ourselves to do so. faith of a mustard seed, he said.
They are called supernatural beings to humans because they are of different physiology from ours and can do more than we can..Maybe they're more evolved than we are. Or maybe they are spiritual beings that physical laws has no effect on.
I'm just throwing possible theories... To be honest we will not understand until it happens, right?
we will not understand until we see it all. Scientists are coming up with things that seemed impossible to people of past times. They wouldn't fathom it at all. I wouldn't be surprised if scientists found the gene that causes death and destroys it? They are finding alot of things that are in the genes. I wouldn't be surprised if there are genes that cause cellular degeneration which causes aging.. Imagine, to people of past times, It would shock them to see cars, not chariots with horses, anymore. Those pharaohs of the bible would kill for a car LOL.. concept of speed of light doesn't exist. concept of Physics doesn't exist at all back then. Electricity doesn't exist back then either. Internet, phones, video cameras, cameras, Airplanes.. They don't understand it at all yet, they exist? Now...
As for interstellar travel. I wouldn't say it would be impossible in the future, it is impossible before and now, of course... but not in the future.. becuase what we have now, is impossible before. I read somewhere that scientists has found a way to teleport something from place A to place B...using technology. Back then, people of course would say that is impossible.. imagine STAR TREK. hehe.. those who are fans, will understand. :) So far they can teleport matter to three feet away... That was three years ago. Who knows what they can find now and in the future. Scientists has found ways to make things happen.. I wouldn't say interstellar travel is impossible in the future.. It is now, of course.. it doesn't exist now. :)
