Did other people inhabit the earth before we did?

Some things are TRUE! Whether they are believed, or not!

I do not see this subject matter as ludicrous. I don't know if it has any merit or not, and it certainly has no bearing on us and our Salvation through Jesus, but it is interesting.

The passage in Jeremiah I always took as PROPHETIC NOT HISTORICAL. Why is it not Prophetic?

Insults never further a discussion. Please just stick the topic.

Why cant Genesis 1:1 simply be basically a chapter heading? Similar to a book that has a page at the start that gives a tiny, short caption of the full description to follow in the entire chapter.

I don't even believe in LUCIFER!!

the word is LATIN found in Isaiah which is Hebrew!!

Isaiah was written 1500 years before LATIN and the word LUCIFER even existed!!

I believe what Jeremiah states how God destroyed humans and the earth all representing Genesis 1:1 IN THE BEGINNING!!

There is a Luciferian theory. And it begins in Genesis 1:1 when it claims the heavens and the earth was finished (this means completed with life).

You raised the intrigue of the Luciferian theory. Obviously this means some writer somewhere has postulated this theory.



No matter, knowing any language does not guarantee knowledge of truth.

"In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth"

In the Hebrew (if you actually believe in God one should know their HEBREW) , verse 1 of Genesis 1 absolutely means there is a period of time called the "BEGINNING," and during this time period God created the heavens and earth (as in 100% complete).

Here is an explanation from a Hebrew/Jew point of view on the correct way to interpret Genesis 1:1 and 1:2...

(What exactly does the book of Genesis tell us? That YEHOVAH God created the universe -- the heavens and the earth -- in a period of time called, simply, "the beginning." How long ago that primeval creation occurred we are not told anywhere in the Scripture. To determine that, YEHOVAH God has given us brains and intellect!)

Verse 2 represents a separate recreation not connected to verse 1 "the Beginning."

(Verse two of Genesis, chapter one, continues:

"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep" (King James Version).

Is this verse describing the ORIGINAL creation as being formless and void? If so, it would seem a contradiction. Verse one tells us YEHOVAH created the heavens and the earth. When YEHOVAH creates something, it is beautiful, grand, and majestic. In the 38th chapter of the book of Job, we read:

"Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof? When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?" (vs. 4-7).

***If the original earth had been created a chaotic ruin, formless and void, the angels would not have "sang together" or have "shouted for joy.")***




It cracks me up to read/hear so-called preachers claim they know the word of God. But, do preachers actually know the Hebrew better than the Jews? It's a tragedy knowing on Sunday's and Wednesday's, true followers of God are being misled by ignorant men who actually believe what they preach is the absolute truth. And these men don't even have the first clue to what the Hebrew means throughout the Old Testament!!

It will be a very sad day when we all gather before Christ and have to give an account of just HOW STUPID SOME OF US REALLY ARE AND WHY WE MISLED PEOPLE TO UNTRUTHFUL KNOWLEDGE!!

Yes, there is a theory!!

but I don't believe in Lucifer, I believe in the Adversary!!

Yes, there is a theory!!

but I don't believe in Lucifer, I believe in the Adversary!!

This isn't one of them. Angels don't procreate with humans or animals, either one.

That's fantasy. Scripture doesn't teach that nonsense.

In your imagination, but not in Scripture.

There couldn't have been people on the earth before Adam and Eve, because there was no earth until God created it. Then then the spirit of God hovered over the waters.

That's fantasy. Scripture doesn't teach that nonsense.

In your imagination, but not in Scripture.

Angel just means messenger. It doesn’t mean spirit. Most people would argue that you couldn’t make an human hybrid with animals but that’s what they are cooking up in labs these days.

I don’t think that the Bible says exactly giants were hybrids. It states that “sons of gods” made babies with daughters of Adam and they became the men of renown. Also...there was giants in those days. Given the lifespan of men in those days before the flood, before they ate meat, is it possible that their adolescence lasted about a hundred years or more? They didn’t have children until into their eighties. I’m not saying that’s the case but it is as possible, if not more plausible than some of the contending theories.

That is because you fail to understand what IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH mean:

in the Hebrew, this one verse means this is all completed. Like after verse 2 and LET THERE BE LIGHT till God rested means a SECOND or recreation of the FIRST VERSE.

In the Hebrew, it shows God created the earth in verse 1 [between verse 1 and 2 destroyed the earth] and verse 2 beyond restored or recreated it again!!

Jeremiah 4 explains this and there was cities and life including humans all representing verse 1 [IN THE BEGINNING]!!

Well why did God destroy mankind and the animals with the flood, all except noah and his family

Evidently no one is reading how I explained what Genesis tells us. Genesis tells us that in the beginning the earth was formless and empty, and that is in the translation of the original Hebrew. It does NOT say there was nothing here in the beginning, and science has proved that there was something here. God is into facts, not make believe.

God destroyed with the flood because the one kind of angel who can take on human form and who rebelled against God married human women and produced so many evil men, and got human men to follow them that there was such evil in the world. The book of Enoch tells more about it, but in the 500's the church decided to outlaw that book in their desire to get the world to say the OT was too Jewish to be counted as scripture.

Who were the sons of God. Angels. Why did God destroy mankind with a flood?
