As man has developed technology and science to
redefine much of our life, many Bible stories
seem too childish for the sophisticated and
educated minds of today.
I am a Christian who has experienced a personal
encounter with a loving Creator and a very real
relationship with him. With this wonderful
experience it is very easy, once touched by HIS
love to simply accept many of the Bible Stories
at face value as many Christians do. However
there are some today who have tried to redefine
these stories in disbelief and have even gone so
far as to replace God with space aliens as our
creator. In light of these challenges to someone
who desires to believe in the Bible, it has become
necessary to re-examine these scriptures in light
of modern technology and the literal languages
used. In doing this, quite a different story yet
consistent to the character and nature of God
unfolds.
Two naked people- a man and a woman, a tree,
an apple and a snake. Really?
First let's look at the tree. The Hebrew word for
tree used in Gen 2:9 has an emphases on the
product from it's origin to be utilized in the sense
of making firm or fasten, to close or seal. In this
sense the tree is more of a door orgateway. The
word for tree also has much in common with the
Hebrew word for generations. It is how and why
we get the idea of a “family tree.” With a trunk
branches, leaves and fruit, this “tree” could
symbolically be suggesting an opening to another
dimension. With this in mind the two trees of
Genesis, the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil and the tree of life could represent pathways
or dimensional portals whose entrance depends
upon a decision of faith or disobedience in the
form of self-reliance. This idea of dimensions, is
also backed up by the statement Jesus made to
Piliate at his trial as recorded in John 8:23 when
he said he was "not of this world." The Greek
word Kosmos is used for world and means the
entire ordered arrangement of this universe
which equals in a more modern term, Dimension!
(see the tract If God is a Loving God then Why?
for more details). The fruit which the Bible never
says is an apple, is the catalyst that transforms
man, time and space into a mortal, linear
existence. This was never the intention of God
but the result of a wrong decision by man. (See
The power of Blood for more details) Are we to
believe that the initiator was a snake or a
temporarily demonized one? Again, by going
back to the Hebrew word usage, quite a different
picture and claim can be made. Nachash, the
Hebrew word for serpent means snake from its
hiss. Its root word means to enchant or to
prognosticate. The emphasis is on the action of
the snake as being like a snake not necessarily
that it is a snake. Dr. Henery M. Morris states in
his book, The Genesis Record, that some
(scholars) maintain that Nachash originally
meant upright shining creature. This would give
a whole new perspective to the "serpent". He is
said to be more subtle that all the other creatures
created by God. Subtle means intelligence
applied in a crafty or manipulative manner. This
certainly is not talking about the reptile we know
as a snake. In Gen 3 we get the illustration that
because the serpent deceived Adam and Eve he
would be made to crawl on his belly and eat dust
for the rest of his life. Again by going back to the
original language and redefining these words in
light of 21st century knowledge, the story takes
another very realistic twist. The Hebrew, “al
gachown yalak” for upon the belly and life can
actually mean, “from above a reptile,(as superior)
from the issue of the fetus as being outside the
belly you will continue on in your material life.
Only in modern times could this scripture be
understood for what it might imply. A superior
reptilian form that carries on life outside of
normal reproduction can be by the means of
cloning! A seraphim is an order of angelic being.
In word etymology, in Sanscrit seraph means
reptile. Even Doctors Young and Strong’s in their
Concordance’s of the Bible concur with these
word definitions without drawing these rather
strange conclusions! Dr. Spiros Zodhiates Th.D.
comments in his Hebrew-Greek Bible about the
word “cursed” in Gen3: “This word has been
interpreted as meaning to bind (with a spell) to
hem in with obstacles, to render powerless, to
resist. Thus the first curses in Gen3:14,17, “Thou
art cursed above all cattle, and Cursed is the
ground for thy sake” means, “You are banned
from all the other animals” and Condemned be
the soil [i.e., it’s fertility to men is banned] on
your account. In light of this possible meaning to
the scriptures just who or what is this Nachash?
Is this the image of the
Biblical
Nachash?
The evidence is
uncany! As a
former member of
M.U.F.O.N.
(Mutual UFO
Network a serious
organization
composed of
professionals from
the scientific
community) and a
U.F.O. researcher, the alleged information about
these “Gray’s” line right up with this possible
understanding from the scriptures. It is said: with
an agenda following, that these “Gray’s are of
superior intelligence having two brains. They do
not possess sexual organs and have sensory
organs that are somewhat atrophied. They say
they continue on in life by transferring their
conciseness to a cloned replica of themselves
when damaged. They are reptilian in nature and
have the ability to hypnotize or freeze their
victims. They claim to have created mankind and
are here to bring us up to the next level of our
“evolution”. They are seen in a bright sudden and
startling appearance from the skies. Their bodies
also appear to shine in the dark. They are
proclaiming to man that we are our own god, that
we must rethink our world-view to survive the
coming catastrophes. They proclaim a
philosophy called Theosophy and claim to be
aliens from Zeta Rectili in Orion’s belt. They are
recorded all throughout history as the “wee
people”, “ fairies” and “goblins” of old. There
are even depicted on pottery and cave drawings.
What really happened in the Garden of Eden can
be explained better in these modern terms. What
is really important is what is still happening with
the Nachash today! They say they are aliens, The
Bible says they are Liars, Deceivers called
Demons!
II Th 2:9 “Even him, whose coming is after
the working of Satan with all power and signs
and lying wonders...” Signs and lying wonders
means in the Greek, that a sudden and startling
sight in the skies bearing an ethical message
contrary to God is given! We are warned that in
the end times a great deception would come upon
mankind from the skies!. II Th 2:11 “And for this
cause God shall send them strong delusion, that
they should believe a lie:” Why does this
happen? Because in context here, they reject the
truth. If you will not believe the truth, you will
believe a lie. II Th 2:10 And with all
deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that
perish; because they received not the love of the
truth, that they might be saved... That they all
might be damned who believed not the truth, but
had pleasure in unrighteousness. Unrighteousness
is better rendered as a wrong belief. It is not just
the actions of these people, but what they put
their trust and faith in that caused them to act that
was wrong. “Had pleasure,” means a hopeful
expectation. Who do you believe? What do you
put your trust in? You are no different than Adam
or Eve. There stands before you two choices, two
paths, Two trees. One based on Faith, one on
Self-Reliance. What is the truth? Jesus said, “ I
am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes
to the Father, but by me.” Only Jesus bridged the
gap between these two dimensions by
accomplishing the reverse and opposite of what
happened in the Garden at Calvary! He did it for
you! John 3:16 “For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believes in him should not perish,
but has everlasting life.” The Nachash were
liars from the beginning and are still lying to
mankind today! They pretend to be “Aliens”
when they are actually the fallen Angels who are
part of an ongoing rebellion against God. But
what will you believe? What do the “aliens” give
as hope? Their brand of reality? A personal
Loving God offers a place in his family as one of
his children to be joint heirs with Jesus for
eternity! All you have to do is humble yourself
before this loving God and receive his free offer
of grace. Jesus stated :Rev 3:20-21Behold, I
stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my
voice, and open the door, I will come in to him,
and will sup with him, and he with me. To him
that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my
throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down
with my Father in his throne”.
IN prayer ask Jesus into your life and begin to
experience and know for certain the Living truth.
