yay someone gets it.

I think people might have been brainwashed by that movie Jurassic Park and assumed that the 65 million years in the making (the tagline of the movie) was true.

The movie didn't take THAT long to make, and God didn't take that long to make dinosaurs or dragons. He did after all, make serpents who were more cunning/subtil than all the other creatures that were made.
Then God cursed the serpent and made him crawl on his belly and eat dirt after he tricked Eve.

There were giants in the earth in those days... Dinosaurs could well be a red herring: a false clue, introduced to divert attention away from the actual truth.

Satan rarely deals in outright lies. His most dangerous deceptions are those rooted in partial truth or distorted context. Yeah, there were giants on the earth in the past, but they were gargantuan lizards, not humanoid descendants of the Nephilim.

That said, Behemoth and Leviathan were colossal creatures of the land and sea. In Behemoth's case, God ranked it as the pinnacle of physical, terrestrial strength, which doesn't really fit the narrative for such a creature being a metaphor for chaos.

Paleontology could have designated fossils from interrelated creatures as dinosaurs. To repackage physical evidence which needed to be plausibly rationalised for a future where God was to be jettisoned from the thinking of the general population.

That could be. I think nephilim were more human like though and giant. Like the pictures in the ancient Egyptian pyramids. But with the long head, and then at some point they started wrapping actual human heads to make it like theirs. That is the alien appearance is actually a nephilim.

Places have strange bones like in peru of little creatures like this. Giants were found all throughout the 1900s and in the paper. They sent them to the Smithsonian museum, never to be seen again.

They hide it bc giants of anything disproves evolution. So do dinosaurs though too.

The “giants” spoken here refers to human giants. There are too many verses referring to giants as humans. So no “red herring.” Also, too many accounts worldwide. The Smithsonian was also known to destroy these skeletons to suppress any biblical evidences; as they were promoting Satan’s lies of evolution.

When God spoke of human giants, there was NO deception; He meant what He said, period.

I can see you have zero biblical faith in what you read, and all kinds of faith in satan’s deceptions and lies.

Here God was talking about some type of dinosaur, perhaps a dragon of some sort, and a sea creature (which may still exist; based on all the sightings in various lakes). Too many accounts worldwide!

Yes, as if they’ve never done this before (in the most famous case of Lucy, which was probably a young Bigfoot). Lol

Science has a very hard time when they can’t rationalize something, even when they know the answer is obvious!!

I'm sure there were giant animals back in the day too.

Whales! (They survived the flood! Funny that)
Megaflora! ( Have survived on remote islands that lacked predators)

Now humans have become the apex predator, after killing off all the dragons/dinosaurs and taking captive all the lions, tigers and bears. Not sure what happened to the Unicorns though. Are they the pale horse in Revelation? The one Jesus is riding?

You do know that we are talking about Scripture, right?? You’re mentioning things off the wall…..
yea but just saying since trees are God's creation

They not off the wall they in the forest.
The trees sometimes get made into walls...but they are now protected especially this particular one.
 
Anyone know where the gopher trees are that Noah made the ark out of? They must have been huge, to make the Ark, as tells us the measurements.

You could make a waka (war canoe) out of a tree, Maori used to use Kauri and Totara as it was the strongest, straightest, tallest, lightest and most waterproof.

Kauri were also used to make ship masts.

I concur.

The only point I was seeking to make was that giant prehistoric terrestrial reptiles, could be a false, alternative narrative to keep people who've never read the Bible from learning about the true giants of old: the humanoid descendants of the Nephilim.

The truth needs no defending here my friend.

I know there were giants on the earth in those days, and that they were humanoid. The possible deception I was referring to concerns Dinosaurs.

Conceivably, they are a modern narrative for those who've never read the Bible. Fictitious prehistoric giant lizards, intended to disguise/conceal the truth about the actual giants, recorded in Genesis.

My first exposure to the idea of prehistoric giants came from an encyclopedia about Dinosaurs, which I found in my school library. I hadn't learned about the nature of the true giants of old until my mid-20s.

Got it. Yes, I never really learned about them until I had kids. lol

Idk about you, but I believe God made them, and man within a week. Short creation period!

Six days of creation, no evolution, and no billion-year timelines. And the sun isn't going to burn out in about five billion years, either. Christ will return long before science's fanciful timescales and predictions about what could bring about mankind's end.

God made dinosaurs right? In the six days of creation.
I wasn't the one saying dinosaurs were humanoids.
They're dragons.

Dragons were in the earth those days. You need a warrior to defeat them.
Note that in Revelation. Michael and his angels defeat the dragon.

I think some people don't actually know how to read the Bible. I mean in terms of syntax and meaning. They can't put two and two together and get 4. They put two and two together and get 65 million.

If you know, you know.

Yes, it’s too bad people are so bad with the dot connection! Lol

Job is a good book to learn about the dinosaurs (towards the end of the book). He specifically describes the 2 different types, one being the fire breathing dragon (which accounts have described down through history). God said to never forget the fight; one can take this both metaphorically, and physically.

The Earth was without form because it was just covered with water. Water does not have a shape or take the form of anything but the container it is in. The only thing holding water upon the earth was gravity on day one.

What was it void of?
IF Satan had goglike powers to destroy God's earth in the hypothetical pre-historic creation as some gap-theorists spent a big chunk of my life trying to convince me of, ie. Col. Theime, etal. then wouldn't there be something else on this planet?
I suggest that the plain sense makes common sense, so I'll seek no other sense lest it become nonsense.

The earth was covered by nothing but water and was void of life, and all creation that God spent the next week days making.

That's my understanding about Genesis 1 .
Does that make sense to you too friend?
Genesis 1:

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Yes - essentially - just water. There may have been something under the water, but the water was deep...

But it says there was no planet (void of form) so it probably wasn’t even a sphere at this point.
