Question

What does the Bible say about intelligent life on other planets?

Answer 1

Bible didn't say a thing about if there is other being out of this earth.  It only concentrates on salvation on this earth.

Answer 2

The bible says god is the intelligent life in another far away planet...

Answer 3

God gave man dominion over the earth, so there is no life on other planets not that we can reach.

That is why I don't believe man walked on the moon.

His boundary is the earth.

Answer 4

nothing-the writers didn't know any astronomy

Answer 5

nothing.  they thought the planets were stars; in fact "planet" means "wandering star".

Answer 6

I read the few answers given and I think the other answers might be inaccurate, as when the bible talks about heaven and angels etc. it is open to a wide spectrum of interpretations as to the official location of the residence of spiritual beings.

If we give the Bible the same scope for the change in vocabulary as we have given Shakespeare, we can say we know that the Bible tells us that God and the angels reside off planet but no address given, so which planet? Take your pick, we've only looked at less than 0.1% of what ther is to see in space.

Answer 7

It says

Answer 8

The bible mentions "Wheels of Fire in the sky."  Could this mean UFO's?  It's possible.

Answer 9

the only planet that's in the Bible is the north star in which the three wise men fallow to Christ when he was born.

Answer 10

It doesn't specifically. Reading in between the lines, any references of "falling from the heavens" usually means it's coming from above and outside of earth (extra-"above" terrestrial-"earth (terra)")

There are schools of thought that believe the Nephilim and Seraphim are ETs, that the Angels and the Devil, even God are all ETs.

Answer 11

The whole UFO -bible bit is pretty much covered by nutjob Erich von Däniken in Chariots of the Gods?     While comical in its interpertations, you can find most of the UFO/Jesus Freak references there.

Answer 12

Nothing directly. The Bible tells us that God created the heavens and the earth, the sun the moon, the stars and all that there is.

As to whether He has put intelligent life elswhere in the Universe, that question is for Him to know and us to wonder and to discover.

Many years ago, a Sunday School teacher of mine suggested that when Jesus said to His disciples "Other sheep have I that are not of this fold", He may have been referring to extra terrestrial people. I think He was probably meaning people other than those of the Jewish race, ie the gentiles. Up to that time the Jews were regarded as His Chosen ones exclusively, but Jeus made it clear that He had come to save the whole world and that anyone who believes in Him will be with Him for eternity.

One day, when we meet Him face to face we will know the secrets of the universe. Until then we wonder and discover.

Answer 13

doesn't say anything.

They didn't know about other planets when bible was written.

And Bible isn't meant to be used as a science textbook.

Answer 14

It doesn't
