do you believe that there use to be giants on the earth?

[hitch0403]

   Forget the Bible. You want facts and evidence. Yes, they existed...and strange bones are dug up in the world every day for scientific studies. They are/were weird looking creatures for sure.

Father, sanctify them by your truth, because your word is truth.John17:17

So i guess we forget what Jesus said!




BTW...see if science can develop the "fountain of youth"also!

[sherryinutah]

I'm pretty open minded but giants?  I guess some football and basketball players could be perceived as giants.  The reason I have a difficult time with this is because the word "giant" has been using in fictional children's stories; which were based on imagination.

Yes, the Bible describes "giants" such as Goliath. But, it's likely they were just really tall brawny men. People mistakenly attribute them to being abnormal due to "demonic interference"  but that just isn't the case at all.

[JaniceSW]

I think that people have evolved and that at one time there could have been those who were much taller than the present day average person.  Do I think that was the norm?  I doubt it.  Or could it be that the "giants" were the dinosaurs?  I don't know.

[Shaquaysha2210]

Yes look in national geographic about giants

[LenoraMinogue]

Well, there were certainly other giant creatures here once, many of the dinosaurs, so who knows. There are some really giant people today. There's a lot of variation in humanity.

[alaskakaren]

Maybe people in the past were taller...I'm not sure...but I don't believe there were giant humans on earth...

Jude 1:6

New Living Translation
And I remind you of the angels who did not stay within the limits of authority God gave them but left the place where they belonged. God has kept them securely chained in prisons of darkness, waiting for the great day of judgment.

They created the Nephilim in Noahs day

There are other accounts where spirits took on fleshly bodies in bible.Of course Jesus being the best example after he was dead for 3 days.Also Abraham entertained angels that took on bodies.

[monnee]

Yes, dinosaurs where the Giants of the past.

The difference is God ordained the Angels to have flesh. Angels don't have the authority to command themselves physical bodies. And without physical bodies, the Angels don't have the wherewithal to procreate.

The Bible said there were giants in the past.  David and the giant is one that sticks out in my mind.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe.

[hitch0403]

Hence, if these “sons of the true God” were merely men, the question arises, Why were their offspring “men of fame” more than those of the wicked, or of faithful Noah? Also, the question might be asked, Why mention their marriage to the daughters of men as something special? Marriage and childbearing had been taking place for more than 1,500 years.

OH wait a minute......maybe there was steriods in that day!!!LOL!!

[michele2042]

Never thought of it, have to look up the definition of a giant.   

[mardukblood2009]

I have heard of that and I also saw that on Ancient Aliens. I don't know about giants but maybe really tall people.
