M30USA Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I am a firm believer that Adam and Eve were the first ones of "us". They were the first of what we call "humans" or "mankind". But lately I've realized, through Biblical study and science, that there were humanoids on earth prior to Adam and Eve. I use the word "humanoid" intentionally because they were not human in the sense that you and I are human. Though they looked very much like us and could even reproduce with us (as science has shown), they were of a different order. Here is where I'll get a lot of laughter. I believe these prehistoric humanoids were angels or the offspring of angels. The Bible tells us that the fallen angels were cast down to earth and, according to Ezekiel 28 (starting in verse 13), we are told that Satan lived on earth prior to the fall of man in Eden. We can also assume his fallen angels were with him. So what does this mean? It means that all those skeletons from dates prior to six or seven thousand years ago are the remains of angelic beings. The Bible says that angels can take on human form. It also says in Psalm 82 that God would make these fallen angels "die like men". If they actually died, wouldn't they have remains? Yes. And they are everywhere. But you have been told these are "Cro-Magnons", "Neanderthals", etc. What makes us human is not our physical bodies. Even angels can take human bodies. And, as you well know, certain animals look like us--such as chimpanzees. Can you imagine a person from the distant future unearthing a human skeleton next to a chimpanzee skeleton? Would he assume they are similar, or that one is an earlier version of the other? I think we are doing the same thing with prehistoric skeletons. We don't understand that these are angelic beings who were cast down to earth, as recorded in the Bible. What made them distinct is their neurological characteristics and their spirits--the same things which make us distinct from chimpanzees. Unfortunately none of those things remain to be studied. Recent discoveries in science show that, at a time when we previously thought our "ancestors" were living in caves and grunting like savages, they actually possessed complex knowledge, developed accurate calendars, knew how many planets were in our solar system (which we didn't know until 250 years ago), built boats to cross oceans (20,000 years before Columbus) and their brain sizes were larger than ours (1400cc compared to our 1200cc). The strange thing is that Adolf Hitler actually knew about this. He was a disturbed man, but he knew there were ancient humans who were highly intelligent. This is why he attempted to dig them up and resurrect the Arian race. Twisted but true. I always thought it was strange how, in the Bible, Cain killed Abel and, as he was sent AWAY from his family in Eden, he was was scared that "whoever finds me will kill me". What other people would there be to kill Cain? The Bible only mentions Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel and Seth. It says Cain left the entire area and went "out of the presence of the Lord". Did he make contact with the Cro-Magnons or Neanderthals (who I believe were the fallen angels)? The interesting thing is that, after Cain left, the Bible says he built the first city and suddenly music, art, warfare, and metallurgy sprung up out of nowhere in the line of Cain. The holy line of Seth had NONE of this technology. Why not? Where did this knowledge from the line of Cain suddenly come from? Was he taught it by the Cro-Magnons and Neanderthals (ie, fallen angels)? Another bizarre phrase in the Bible is when God told Adam and Eve to "re-populate" the earth. How can they rep-populate if, as most Christians hold, they were the first ones on earth? The hardest thing to digest about all of this is that angels could be mistaken for pre-humans. I admit this is difficult. But the problem lies with our understanding of angels. We, not the Bible, have made them out to be mythical and taken away their reality. They were real beings. And some of them, according to the Bible, were cast down to live on earth. The Bible says that God made mankind "a little lower than the angels" (Psalm 8:5). I've always been intrigued by this phrase. Not only does it say that we are a "little" lower (as opposed to a lot), but it seems to suggest a sequence: angels were here first, then mankind. This fits the sequence I am presenting here: angels on earth first, then mankind. There is so much more involved here and I could write about 20 pages on this but I'll leave it here with the basics. I'm curious to hear what other Bible believers think about this. Edited June 2, 2014 by M30USA
Untouched Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 God did not say to repopulate the Earth. He evidently spoke in Hebrew, and used the word "male," which means "fill." Not "refill." And, was translated to "replenish" in the King James Bible. If there were a civilization of angels populating the Earth before Adam and Eve, I hope that people who really do know the Word believe that the Bible would tell us this. I think it's fun to speculate and fantasize about different scenarios that would be cool, using the Bible as a launching pad. But it is a completely different thing than understanding and believing the Bible. 1

But it is a completely different thing than understanding and believing the Bible. Who is fantasizing? My very point is that the typical Christian view of the Bible is a fantasy, while the Bible itself is stunningly different and presents us with a reality that is hard to grasp. It's no fantasy when the Bible says fallen angels lived in earth prior to Adam and Eve. Where is the fantasy? It's in the Bible. The only fantasy is what we stupid Christians have been deceived into believing about the Bible. (Incidentally, "the Word" is not the Bible. The Bible says "the Word" is Jesus Christ, God in human flesh.) Edited June 2, 2014 by M30USA
somedude81 Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 The whole notion that Adam and Eve were the very first humans and that mankind descended from them alone is ridiculous. The bible is a book of stories and fables. Jesus himself is a story teller and used them in his teachings. Though the problem with the bible is that it's so old and has been retranslated so many times, people got confused on what parts were supposed to be stories and which parts were supposed to be taken as fact. I believe that the story of Adam and Eve is not supposed to be taken literally, but that it's just a fairy tale that's supposed to teach about sin and the consequences of challenging God.

Sorry. Incorrect. It's been translated once. Hebrew to English. Or Aramaic to English. Or Greek to English. We have copies of the early manuscripts which are all the same. I believe that the story of Adam and Eve is not supposed to be taken literally, but that it's just a fairy tale that's supposed to teach about sin and the consequences of challenging God. You believe... Isaac Newton said that every prophecy and historical event in the Bible will prove to be true. He came to this conclusion after spending decades studying Scripture. He was an expert on ancient history, aside from being a genius of physics. I'll take his opinion over yours.
Author M30USA Posted June 2, 2014 Author Posted June 2, 2014 Anyway, another thread mauled. I specifically asked the opinion of those who already believe the Bible. Please stop "jamming your views down our throats".

Good luck in your quest for knowledge M30USA. Yep, I'm serious. The only variation in early manuscripts is that some leave out a few verses in the latter part of Mark. Other than that they are identical. I'd recommend reading the works of Paul Little where he discusses these very issues. Good luck to you as well. Edited June 2, 2014 by M30USA
Untouched Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 I really do know the Bible, pretty much inside and out. I think you won't take kindly to this, M30USA, but we are exhorted in the Bible to gather together to worship and praise. From reading some of your posts, I get the picture that you spend your time by yourself, "interpreting" the Word. That could be dangerous.
Untouched Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Sorry. Incorrect. It's been translated once. Hebrew to English. Or Aramaic to English. Or Greek to English. How do you account for the difference in verbiage amongst the various versions of the Bible (KJV, NIV, etc.)? It is commonly accepted, and proven, that the Bible has been translated differently at different times. 1
Koopa Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 I am not going to try and argue with a person who takes the bible literally, instead I am going to ask you a question... If I told you god came to me in my sleep and told me I should kill my oldest son, what would you say? 4

I'm curious to hear what other Bible believers think about this. Your entire post is beyond fascinating, and I felt very blessed reading it tonight- thank you for taking the heart and time to post this:) my only regret is that you didn't go the 20 pages! The bolded portion has perplexed me at times. Given the fact that people lived much longer lives then, I assumed that they had to have come from Adam and Eve. This doesn't make sense though (and didn't then). After reading Genesis a few weeks ago I had the same question you brought up here. One thought was, why would he think others would want to kill him? If all of these people (or whatever) were the offspring of Adam and Eve, then why would Cain fear them? Also I got the feeling that Cain "knew" of them, but was not related to them. Genesis did give the "feeling" that these were a different group of people, but didn't come out and say it. IDK, it's difficult to explain. I wholeheartedly agree that there is a giant misconception of angels- in talking about the basics with other believers I see it. This is all starting to fit together. I watch the History Channel and there are certain facts that I can't explain if I were to go by typical Biblical teaching. I have never heard any teacher teach on these lines, meaning the mainstream teachers. I think it's interesting that a friend of mine, who isn't into documentaries/knowledge of this nature, and had only been a believer for less than a year, was already up on why God had to destroy the earth during the flood (you at that same time started threads on this topic also). Reason being, she didn't study from the mainstream- not to say that it's all bad, but I'd really like to dig deep on this matter and don't really know where to begin.

Author M30USA Posted June 2, 2014 Author Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I've always known something doesn't add up about prehistory. In elementary school we recited: "In 1492 Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue." We were taught he was the first one. Now science has learned prehistoric humanoids had done it 20,000 years ago. The oddest thing about this particular example is it's not like the technology of boats developed from that point on. It was learned in prehistoric times, then forgotten, then relearned. Why the gap in between? I propose it was because the prehistoric inventors were angels; then God put primitive Adam on earth who knew nothing until his descendents learned this technology FROM the angels as the angels were in the process of being wiped out by God.

A.Moscote Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 I accept Darwin's as the most probable theory to explain the natural evolution and hence to also explain the humanoid (Homo genus) remains. However, because I'm also an adherent (religious revelation is accepted with a much higher conviction than any other), I believe that the first two Homo sapiens sapiens (modern human, Adam & Eve) were created miraculously,as is mention in the scripture, rather than descended from the natural evolution. Then they were sent down to earth at a suitable time, from studies maybe around 200 000 years ago, i.e. around or after the time of other Homos. From two to billions? Not impossible. That's it for me, my way, with all my biases (and hopefully logics as well), to reconcile science with religion in this issue.

That could be dangerous. Lol, like John the Baptist? First of all, I'm not a hermit and I do attend a church. But independent study of Sctipture is THE most important practice in the pursuit of truth. Does not Scripture itself warn that in latter days the church will become deceived and apostate? How then will you know the truth if you don't independently study Scripture and just rely on the religious teachers? If I lived 2000 years ago and just listened to the religious teachers, I would have not recognized Jesus as the Son of God! Edited June 2, 2014 by M30USA 1

We can't deny the facts, can we? I mean some of the stuff and archeological finds just can't be made up. Supposing the only difference is most of the people interpreting these finds comes from a worldly view and mine needs to find Biblical truth. This is beyond frustrating for many reasons- a big reason is my oldest grandson who would rather learn (mostly in the scientific realm) than play his XBox. He too is looking to connect the dots and he asks these sorts of questions and his grandmother just sits in a state of duhhhhh or I don't know. Like in one of the above posts, I'm in the process of re-mapping my thinking, this is a delicate procedure, so I fear going "underground" too much because there can be some odd thinking going on also…I'm not "there" enough to understand the difference. Yes, like Deb stated, certain things "click" to be true, so guessing I need to delve into this further.

There are serious problems with both evolutionary theory AND mainstream religious theory. (Notice I didn't say Biblical history.) How wild would it be if, unlike both schools of thought, there was not a single point of origin for all humanoids, but rather two or more points of origin which were planted there independently and then later on encountered each other? As wild as this sounds, it seems to line up with Scripture and also the most recent scientific discoveries. It just requires a complete shift in our most basic assumptions.

There have been lots and lots of strange humanoids running around on our lovely little planet.....going back long before Christ was a child. At some point - they got soul. (pretty early on, I'd say.) (I love how that works.) The fly in the ointment always seems to surround just exactly when that happened. Did you ever watch Inherit the Wind? (Wonderful movie.) My favorite part was when Spencer Tracy was trying to decipher just what was the definition of a day. Was it 24 hours? Or the time from when the sun came up until it went down? And who could tell if the cloud cover was so thick that nobody could see the sun or sky? Lovely stuff. Back to Lucy. She definitely was quite humanoid. But she's also very.....very....old. (Older than my great great great great grandma!) And that's old. She's there. And she just never quite goes away. Much as we'd sometimes like her to. She just - hangs around. It's as if she just showed up to bring all that magic and mystery of the Universe right into our little backyard, here. And bother us with details. I wish I'd known her way back when. Her secrets must be astonishing. 2
