Aliens

[ChristianTeen]

From a christian viewpoint, could it be possible that aliens exist?

I think aliens are demonic, put simply. I think the people that claim to see them are: 1. Lying, or 2. Viewing something satanic.

no
there is no place for aliens in the bible..
but there are plenty of places for demons and angels, but for some reason we would rather believe in aliens than demons, which I think might not be very different..

we truly live in a scary age, there is more truth in Harry Potter than evolution they teach at university.

I don't believe in "intelligent life" on other planets to be real mainly because there is no place in the Bible (that I know of) that speaks on it. We are God's only children. The development of "unintelligent" life on another planet is possible though. I say this because God is a God of principles. When he made these principles they applied for every place in the universe and in the spiritual realms. God doesn't have to make things appear. He can "plant a seed" of faith. God works by faith also. It's just that his faith is much stronger than ours so every word that he speaks comes true. Literally, the Word of God is Life! If the principles to create life can work on earth then they must be able to work on another planet with similar attributes of earth because God set them in order. Even if the planet is a couple hundred-million light-years away.

I don't believe that aliens could exsist, because the Bible does not talk about creating aliens. Plus Jesus died on the cross for our sins not aliens too!

I don't believe that aliens exist either. Like everyone said here, there's no place in the Bible that states there is life on any planet besides Earth....so there's no reason to believe they are real.

I'm going to say something I read on a Christian website(www.passageway.org) about this subject, which I agree with personally. The Bible deals with God's plan for humans, right? It says nothing about the rest of the Universe, except that God created it. There are countless stars in the Universe, many which have planets around them. Couldn't it be that God created life on those planets(either intelligent or not) and didn't mention it to us simply because there was no reason to? I mean, put in the context of the time periods the Bible was written, little was even known about our own planet, and the other planets in our solar system were barely even discovered, if at all. Wouldn't it seem out of place for God to say something like "So God made the heavens and the earth, and all the creatures on the earth. And all the creatures on some other planets too." I believe that if there are other sentient being 'out there', then either they don't have the sin problem we do(meaning they never fell away from God to begin with) or God has taken the necessary steps to remedy their problem as well. After all, it seems awfully foolish of us to think that of all the millions of stars and known planets out there, that our little tiny planet is the only one in the entire Universe with life on it. I mean, people once also thought the Earth was flat, which is pretty much common knowledge today to be false. But nowhere in the Bible is that really mentioned, and it doesn't affect the faith of most of us in any way whatsoever. The only thing about aliens that really intrigue me is what about Earth - with our fairly primitive technology and weirdness - would interest them so much.

Hello Christian Teen,

When I was a couple of years younger than you, I began to think the same things. Over time this led me to pursue this question further with reading books, magazines etc. which led me further into the alien question. As time went on I got involved with other unknown things such as ghosts etc. Please stay away from pursuing this question, because I know from firsthand experience that aliens manifesting themselves are demons. Fortunately upon turning to Christ I was delivered from all this in a powerful and wonderful way.
